Jeff Bezos compared baseball to business: a grand slam scores four runs, but a successful business generates thousands to millions in value. The speaker urges you to start now for time, location, and financial freedom.
There's always this analogy when it comes to starting businesses or running businesses with sports, right? Because it's the easiest thing to really compare. But Jeff Bezos had the best comparison out there. When it comes to playing baseball, if you swing the bat as hard as you can, there are chances that you're going to strike out, but there's also that rare occurrence that you hit a grand slam. But the difference between business and you going ahead and playing baseball is is that when you hit a grand slam, the maximum number of points that you can go ahead and score is 4, right? Scores batted in. With business, that number can be 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, even a million. So in that regard, go ahead and start that actual business because it could pay off dividends. It can allow you to have the time freedom, the location freedom, and more importantly, the money freedom, right? So don't take it for granted.
