How an “Accidental Entrepreneur” Built A Unicorn
625 Kara Goldin: Undaunted
Overcoming Your Fears an Why There’s Nothing To Lose
People often talk about entrepreneurs as fearless, tenacious risk-takers, yet it’s hard to find anyone who’s built a successful, fast-growing business who has not struggled with fears or doubts.
Building a business from untested idea to $2 billion behemoth doesn’t come without many setbacks, challenges, and sometimes, excruciating self-doubt along the way.
To succeed in each stage of growth, an entrepreneur must continually be willing to live outside their comfort zone.
Kara Goldin is the Founder and CEO of Hint, Inc., the $2bn company best known for its award-winning Hint® water, the pioneering unsweetened flavored water. She’s also the Wall St Journal bestselling author of Undaunted: Overcoming Doubts & Doubters. Her journey to Unicorn status wasn’t easy and today she shares what it took to overcome myriad setbacks to innovate in myriad ways.
Says Kara, “If I can do it, you can do it.”
- How to overcome your fears, doubts and uncertainties on the entrepreneurial journey
- Why the only way you can know whether or not you can achieve something is simply to “go a little bit further”
- When in doubt, ask yourself: “What’s the worst thing that could happen?”
- Why its vital to celebrate wins along the way, even small ones
- How to welcome failures or adverse conditions beyond your control as opportunities to learn, or spot new even bigger opportunities
- Why quick decisions are often vital, particularly knowing when to pivot and how to take advantage of market opportunities
- And much more!
