class=\"wp-block-heading\">The value in abandoning your plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason once received powerful advice from bestselling author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gladwellbooks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Malcolm Gladwell<\/a> that has guided his career. Gladwell said that he tries not to define himself or his projects because \u201cself-conceptions are powerfully limiting.\u201d Jason ended up as editor-in-chief at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/magazine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Entrepreneur Magazine<\/a> because he was willing to constantly revise his goals. While he always had a plan, he was willing to abandon the plan if he was being steered in another direction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason started his career as a journalist and thought he would become a columnist for the New York Times. However, when he started working for Entrepreneur Magazine, he realized he loved entrepreneurship and could provide value in that space in ways that he couldn\u2019t in his \u201ctraditional\u201d jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id='lightbox-inline-form-f7d37f1b-4a8e-4762-b0ea-9424de78c464'><\/div><div id='variation-inline-form-var-06ce7aab-c2b7-42fb-9ae9-4a8b3ecc2673'><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to stop letting fear of change hold you back in business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s natural to fear change and the unknown. Instead of trying to make the fear go away, which is impossible, business owners can reframe their approach to fear. Instead of letting fear feel like an anchor that holds you back, you should ask yourself how to use that fear to propel you forward. Jason learned this reframing tactic from Katherine Morgan Shafler\u2019s book, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.perfectionistsguide.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Perfectionist\u2019s Guide to Losing Control<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason also gave the example of Meghan Asha, the founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foundermade.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FounderMade<\/a>, a trade show business that relies on live events. When the COVID-19 pandemic started and all events were being canceled, Meghan used her fear to pivot her business into other areas that she didn\u2019t have the time or resources for when live events were taking up all of her time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to reframe fear of changes in tech and AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest sources of fear in the independent business owner space right now is the <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/ai-in-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adoption of AI<\/a>. Some entrepreneurs feel excitement for it while others worry that it will put them out of a job. However, fear of AI will not make it go away, and the people who engage with it in its early stages are the ones who will influence the future of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beautiful thing is that AI presents opportunities to fix broken systems. For example, lawyers are concerned that using AI to write motions will cut down their billable hours. The truth is that nobody likes operating on a billable hours system, but there\u2019s never been a powerful enough incentive to adopt a new system. AI is now providing that incentive, which in the end will only benefit lawyers and how they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can apply this mindset to your business and use AI to fix broken systems. You can also use it to open up future possibilities since your time won\u2019t be spent on old problems anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n        <lite-youtube class=\"\" \n        videoid=\"caza7_MQreg\" params=\"controls=1&#038;start=0&#038;end=0&#038;rel=0\" \n\n                    thumbnailresolution=\"res=recommended\"\n                \n        \n        ><\/lite-youtube>\n    \n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The future of independent business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are in an interesting economy at the moment. Large corporations are laying people off and declaring bankruptcy; however, small businesses are actually very strong right now. In 2021 and 2022, there were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uschamber.com\/small-business\/new-business-applications-a-state-by-state-view#:~:text=In%202021%20alone%2C%20a%20record,new%20business%20applications%20since%202019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">record-breaking amounts of new business applications<\/a>, and small businesses are strong on the hiring front. Gen Z is also more entrepreneurial than any other generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of independent businesses is that they can remain close to their customers and understand what they need on a more granular level than large corporations can. As the world continues to change, people\u2019s needs change, which opens up a myriad of new opportunities for small businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also never been easier to start a business, and that will continue to be true as AI takes over the drudgery of business ownership. Anyone in business or who wants to start a business should embrace the change that is happening and ask themselves how they can provide new solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CtMDjtvOiVH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Whether that\u2019s quitting a 9-to-5 job to pursue your side hustle full-time, hiring team members, or scaling in other ways, there is always uncertainty around the end result.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/growing-your-business-in-recession-donald-miller\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">there is never a perfect time<\/a> to take a leap of faith. If you wait to wake up one day and feel \u201cready,\u201d that day will never come.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating goals and markers can help you feel safer and more secure. For example, you can set a revenue marker that your side hustle needs to hit before you leave your job. Think about what kind of growth you need to experience so that you can feel confident in the trajectory of your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The biggest differentiator between businesses that succeed versus businesses that fail<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Business owners that succeed are not afraid of failing or being bad at something in the beginning. There is this idea that to succeed you should have a natural talent or become good at what you\u2019re doing quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People that succeed are willing to be bad at something for as long as they need to be to become good at it. They also do not define themselves by their failures, but instead, leverage what they learned from \u2018failing\u2019 into their new venture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important sections of the conversation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>[2:02] Jason\u2019s journey to becoming editor-in-chief of Entrepreneur Magazine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[7:06] How to turn fear into fuel for forward motion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[12:48] How to stop fearing AI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[18:08] The future of independent business<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[22:18] How to face the fear of scaling&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[27:35] Jason\u2019s book recommendations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[30:01] Jason\u2019s book, Built for Tomorrow<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>[32:07] The biggest differentiator between businesses that succeed versus businesses that fail<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div id='lightbox-inline-form-72d76c86-612d-405d-b925-c461f6acfb95'><\/div><div id='variation-inline-form-var-143a635f-7d64-4314-88c6-796252bc7e73'><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources mentioned<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gladwellbooks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Malcolm Gladwell<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foundermade.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FounderMade<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uschamber.com\/small-business\/new-business-applications-a-state-by-state-view#:~:text=In%202021%20alone%2C%20a%20record,new%20business%20applications%20since%202019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Record-breaking business applications in 2021<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/danestangler\/2023\/03\/01\/is-new-business-creation-still-setting-records-what-might-that-mean-for-the-economy\/?sh=7fab60ea5c70\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2022 business application growth<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/ryanholiday.net\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ryan Holiday<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jason\u2019s book recommendations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.perfectionistsguide.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Perfectionist\u2019s Guide to Losing Control<\/a> by Katherine Morgan Shafler<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.penguinrandomhouse.com\/books\/692752\/quit-by-annie-duke\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Quit by Annie Duke<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.penguinrandomhouse.ca\/books\/45415\/a-heartbreaking-work-of-staggering-genius-by-dave-eggers\/9780676973655\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius<\/a> by Dave Eggers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coldstart.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Cold Start Problem<\/a> by Andrew Chen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connect with the guest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Jason\u2019s book:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jasonfeifer.com\/book\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Built for Tomorrow<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jason\u2019s newsletter:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/onethingbetter.email\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">One Thing Better<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instagram:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/heyfeifer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">instagram.com\/heyfeifer\/<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In business, we don\u2019t know what the future holds.
