In this solo episode, David breaks down the 10 essential pillars that determine whether you will succeed or fail when you try to build something of your own. He digs into the mindset shift required to bet on yourself, why so many people quit out of fear, and what it really takes to survive the early stages of business when nothing seems to be working.

He explains why ideas do not matter without execution, how to spot real problems instead of chasing cool products, and why knowing your audience can make or break your entire plan. David also simplifies the financial side of business such as revenue, cost, profit, margins, and cash flow so you finally understand where your money is going and why you might not be seeing results.

You will also learn the importance of marketing, attention, branding, systems, processes, and the network around you.

This episode gives you a clear and honest framework for what you must master if you want to go from a job and a dream to building something real.
