After five years in business, a guest shares three lessons for people starting out: believe in yourself and act confident, hard work has no shortcuts, and build both an internal brand at work and an external one for yourself.

If you, if you were to like now, and I love the number 3, so extract like 3 lessons from those 5 years that you think anyone who's starting off right now, whether they are starting in as a coach, in marketing, becoming a founder, whatever it might be, or maybe fresh out of business school trying to get themselves a job. What are those 3 things that you would want them to really like just write, maybe get, get it tattooed on their arm and look at it every day?
Well, I think number one is believe in yourself and then act like it. The second is it takes hard work. And the third is you've got to build your brand. Whatever it is you're doing, your internal brand to a company, your external brand if you're a solopreneur or whatever, you've got to find a way to set yourself apart.
So believe in yourself and then act accordingly. Hard work has no— there's no replacement to hard work and building a brand.
