Opis

Most employees dream of entrepreneurship but underestimate what the transition actually costs. This book explores how that gap between expectation and reality derails careers and reveals the patterns that separate successful transitions from expensive mistakes.It examines what changes beyond income and schedule-the psychological adjustments, financial realities, and skill gaps that emerge once the safety net disappears. Through strategic analysis of transitional phases, resource planning, and identity transformation, it reveals how professionals navigate uncertainty without sabotaging their financial security or mental health.The book reframes career transition as a managed process rather than a leap of faith. It explores how to validate business ideas while employed, structure exit strategies that minimize risk, and build sustainable revenue before burning bridges. It examines the difference between entrepreneurs who thrive independently versus those who discover they preferred employment all along.For professionals considering entrepreneurship, this book offers insight into the patterns beneath successful career transitions. It's not about quitting your job tomorrow or following your passion-it's about understanding what actually changes and how to prepare for challenges most employees never anticipate.

The hardest part of becoming an entrepreneur isn't building a business-it's unlearning the employee mindset that made you successful in the first place.
