The Journey of a Lifestyle Entrepreneur

Hi, I’m Navid Moazzez.

I’m a Lifestyle Entrepreneur, currently based in Stockholm, Sweden, and I’ll be teaming up with Jesse on the Lifestyle Entrepreneur Blog as Managing Editor. You can find more information about me on my personal branded site, and you can also connect with me on Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, LinkedIn and Youtube. I’d love to hear from you some more, so feel free to add me wherever you like if you have any questions or just want to say ‘hi’.

The Lifestyle Entrepreneur Blog will be the hub where Jesse will publish some of his best ideas on entrepreneurship and as the managing editor of this blog, I will write articles and share the experiences I’m going through to become a successful lifestyle entrepreneur. You can also find a recent interview me and Jesse did over at my personal blog.

This is a project both me and Jesse are very excited about and we have a clear vision for the Lifestyle Entrepreneur Blog. Hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

The Journey Begins

I always thought that you have to follow a certain path in life, go to college, get a good job as lawyer, banker or doctor and then make a lot of money and finally retire when you are old to be able to do all the things you are passionate about. Well, I’m glad it didn’t really turn out this way. I still attended law school, but I realized about half way into my studies that there was more to life than this, and I started to look for other answers and things to do in life.

I stumbled across the 4-Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris, and this book literally changed my life. I didn’t take action right away, but after a while, I came across an amazing community of people online, doing exactly what I wanted to do, and I slowly started to connect with more like minded people who wanted to break free and live unconventional lives, but most importantly, I started to take massive action towards my ultimate goals and dreams in life. I attended seminars, and read many books on topics such as business, entrepreneurship, psychology and personal development. I even met truly inspiring people who apparently could work, make money and travel the world, all at the same time, some of them which I am proud to call my friends and mentors today.

After that I start working together with my good friend, mentor and fellow lifestyle entrepreneur Jesse Krieger. He gave me a copy of his book, Lifestyle Entrepreneur, and then later on, I joined Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Academy and worked together with Jesse for a few months, which was one of the best decisions in my life. Even though I had some experience from the past, I was able to learn more than I ever could have imagined and Jesse helped me a lot and fueled my passion to live an amazing lifestyle and start my own businesses.

One of key insights I learned along my entrepreneurial journey so far is that it doesn’t have to be perfect when you start out, it just has to be good enough. What’s more important is that you actually take the right action, go out there and make things happen. Rather than aiming too big, you should start by taking small steps so you don’t get overwhelmed. I remember when I started out, that I wanted to have everything at once.

Another very important aspect if you want to succeed in anything in life is to surround yourself with the right people. I can’t stress enough how big of an impact this have if you want to become successful. So my suggestion to aspiring lifestyle entrepreneurs who are just getting started would be to go out there and try to find mentors and other like minded people.

I know that my life will never be the same now that I have started my entrepreneurial journey. My network of mentors and friends are growing each day, and I know that I will be very successful if I keep taking the right action and move forward towards my goals and dreams in life. I hope to be able to inspire and help you to do the same!

This is just the beginning of the journey of a lifestyle entrepreneur. To be continued!

To your outstanding success,

Navid
