Blog # 2: Erik Hanberg

I thought it was pretty cool hearing Erik Hanberg's story. I especially liked the graph he showed that displayed his and his wife's earnings. It would have been nice to have his wife too, since some questions I could have ask her were how she kept motivated to keep what she was doing. Motivation seems to be my big weakness so when Erik talked about how his book took almost a year to see sales was nice. For me, I always try to spend my time doing something productive where the ends justify the means. So if I don't see the end result to be good I'm tempted to give up on the project. It seemed like he hasn't hit that entrepreneurial gold mine where his books have sold in the millions, so it was interesting to hear someone who's steadily heading there. I always thought of entrepreneuring to be that big hit and become a millionaire type of thing, but Erik showed that it doesn't have to hit that millionaire status to work in a way you see fit.
