better.”

6. 3. Give Up Carefree Living
Matt Murphy,
Co-Founder,
Kids in the Game LLC
● “As an entrepreneur and business owner, you are
naturally going to put pressure on yourself.”
● “Most entrepreneurs admit that it's an ongoing challenge
to turn the brain off outside of work.”
● “Leave-your-work-at-work lifestyle.”
#likeablewebinar

7. 4. Give Up Comfort and Certainty
Christopher Swenor,
CEO,
East Coast Product
● “When you dive into entrepreneurship, you are taking a
gamble.”
● “When I left the certainty and comfort of a great job to try
and build something for myself, I was terrified.”
● “Fortunately, I pushed through and never looked back.”
#likeablewebinar

8. 5. Consistent Schedule
Justin Lefkovitch,
CEO/Founder,
Mirrored Media
● “In order to be successful and grow the company, it's
important to be as flexible with your time as possible.”
● “I often get invitations to meetings or events with very little
notice.”
● “Being accessible and meeting people are big parts of the
job, so that leaves very little room for a "traditional"
schedule.”
#likeablewebinar

9. 6. Control
Peter Kozodoy, Partner,
Chief Strategy Officer,
GEM Advertising
● “I used to get slightly offended when my team members
would suggest that they can and should do one of my
daily tasks better than I.”
● “This year, I vowed to not only let tasks go, but actively
seek to give them away.”
● “Fewer jobs means more time to seek clarity, explore new
business opportunities and be a better mentor to my
team.”

10. 7. Security
Vincent Wong,
CEO and co-founder,
mHelpDesk
● “Security was the most important thing I gave up to
pursue entrepreneurship.”
● “I was going to pay for the roof over my head if things
went sideways.”
● “In the end, burning my bridges was well worth the
sacrifice.”
