Ali's Advice For Side Hustlers
"I think if you have a side hustle and you're passionate about it, you owe it to yourself to give it an honest go. Look into it, see what you have time for. It did take a lot of time. I think you got to try it or at least explore it and see. For me, I loved it. It was really fun. It was really rewarding for me. It felt worth it for me to put the energy and effort in, but I'm not going to lie about the amount of work. I definitely was busy. That being said, hopefully you're not going to try and do it in two weeks and you can spread this out over a length of time and it won’t be as condensed. Yeah. Go for it. Why not? Let’s not be complicated."

I want to end this episode by saying,
"I believe in YOU & YOU can do this."
Summits are by far one of the most powerful ways to quickly grow your list, launch your platform & make more money! (Even if you are just getting started).
Don’t get caught up in Analysis paralysis, because the world needs to hear your message & there are people who are waiting for you to help them.
So just get started. Imperfect action is always better than doing nothing!
Thank you and see you on the next episode!
