Transcript:
When I was going to start a business I knew that I needed some more equipment. And I knew I needed a financial cushion because you don't work well if you are under a lot of financial pressure. So I stayed at my job for six additional months, just knowing I was going to take the money from that six months and create this financial cushion: to buy a computer and the stuff I needed for a successful business. And it turned out to be the best six months I ever had at that job--knowing I was going to leave it. Keeping an eye on where my money was going and just kind of seeing this finishing line. I would totally recommend tightening up on your budget and don't quit your day job.
