Starting Small And Avoiding Over-Investments

About this episode

This episode discusses the pitfalls of over-investing in new projects and the importance of understanding resource allocation before diving in.

The eagerness and excitement of a new project, direction or passion can lead to the desire, one that we sometimes act on, to over-invest. The irony is the novice is the one who over-invests without understand where best to allocate their resources and often well before they have built the identity they need to succeed.
