Something Better Than Six Figures?

Think building a business means instant millions? 

Building a business that stands the test of time takes patience, resilience, and a whole lot of hustle. It often takes years—way more than most expect. 

Sure, we love the idea of rapid success, but that’s not how most great businesses are built.

Look at Slack—they started as a gaming company and turned into a workplace game-changer. Or Tesla—they spent years convincing people that electric cars weren't just a fantasy for sci-fi movies.

Real success takes time.

Imagine this for a moment:

You pitch your dream to over 200 investors, and every single one says no. 

“No, thanks”, “I am sorry, you are rejected” etc...

What would you do? 

What would you do? Throw your hands up and yell, “I give up!”?

There is a man who faced this exact challenge but his response is a powerful reminder that nothing can break you if YOU DON’T ALLOW IT.

This man’s name is Howard Schultz. 

In the 1980s, his idea to bring European-style coffeehouses to America was rejected repeatedly.  

At the time, coffee was a simple, cheap beverage in the U.S.—investors thought no one would pay for premium coffee.

But Schultz didn’t quit. He refined his pitch, stayed persistent, and finally secured funding. 

Finally, Schultz secured the funding he needed, and Starbucks began its transformation from a small Seattle coffee shop into the global powerhouse it is today, with over 35,000 locations worldwide.

The Lesson: Rejection is painful, but it’s also a test. Every “no” can be a step closer to your “yes.” 

One investor might say no. Two might follow. But investor number 201? 

That could be your Starbucks moment.

 Keep going—you never know when the “yes” is right around the corner.

“No, we will not work on our rest days. No, we will not sleep for 2 hours. No, there is no glory in blind devotion to the grind.....”

This bold statement from an X user perfectly captures how Millenials and Gen Z are redefining hustle culture

For them, HUSTLE isn’t about slaving away at your 9-to-5; it’s about building something on the side that can eventually free you from the workplace grind.

But let’s be clear—this new mindset isn’t about laziness. 

It’s about rejecting the outdated idea that success requires sacrificing your health and happiness. 

Instead, they are showing us how to work smarter, not harder using technology at our disposal.

Take the Genz, Sophie earning $4,200 a month in just 15 hours a week

Or The Lady who Quitted a Six Figures job to make cheese and other kitchen table foods. 

These side hustlers prove that success doesn’t come from burning out from a 9-5 grind but from creatively balancing efficiency, technology, and ambition.

The goal isn’t just to work—it’s to thrive. 

Whether you're a Gen Zer, millennial, or beyond, remember: Ambition doesn’t have to hurt.
