Creating Content

START as early as possible.
The earlier you start, the better off you’ll be.
Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there.

College

College is for some people, but not for everyone.
If you go to college, take advantage of clubs and networking.
There are so many entrepreneurial opportunities!
College is a cushion between high school and the real world.
It’s a great opportunity to explore and test things out without super high stakes.

Podcasting

He went to an event and one of the speakers at the event was Casey Adams.
Casey told the group that the #1 thing they should do is start a podcast.
Rom immediately ordered a microphone, and made a goal to start a top 100 podcast.
He made a list of the people he wanted on the podcast. Many of them have been on the show!
Think of a podcast as a free mentorship call.
It’s basically a FaceTime call with a microphone.

Find something that brings VALUE and PASSION.
