Season III Begins! Make 2019 Your Best Year Yet

Notes from Chris

Episode 731

Welcome to Side Hustle School, Season III!!! 2 years ago I had an idea to make something for people who didn’t identify with a lot of the traditional messages about starting a business. That was exactly 730 days ago. Since then we’ve had a nonstop, no break series of stories that are designed to inspire and equip you with the tools you need. So for anyone new out there, here’s a super quick intro: My name is Chris Guillebeau, I’m the host and guide of Side Hustle School. For my entire adult life—which is, it’s true, not short—I’ve been starting projects that make money without costing much money. The whole purpose of Side Hustle School is to shine the spotlight on regular people who are starting income-generating projects of their own. Every day this year, I’ll tell you how they got their ideas, how they made those ideas happen, what mistakes they made or challenges they had to overcome, and what the outcome has been. Often times you’ll notice that even though some people are making a lot of money, what they find to be the most valuable is the confidence and self-worth they gain merely by unlocking that new source of income. Before I go any further, let me give you a few examples from Season II. These are all true stories of real people that you’ll hear every day. Here's to your hustle!
