I received an offer of $10 Million Dollars for something I created for fun.  Something on the side.Let me give you a little history.I had a crazy idea to not just start a blog, but to create the BEST financial planner blog in the world.I started writing.I wasn’t making any money on the site but I knew that I needed to spend some money on the blog to make it a little more professional.With my domain, hosting, some work on my website..I was in for $509.  Then I kept writing and publishing until I started making money.Two years ago someone offered me $10 million to buy my website.Of course there were quite a few things that happened between my initial $509 investment and the offer two years ago. Here are some of the things I changed:00:00 Intro03:39 1. You have to flex your Bi’s (your bold intentions)05:42 2. Build something that is bigger than you08:30 3. Stop asking how and why and start asking what and who10:58 4. Changed the way I thought about growing my businessIt took me less than a day to decide to decline that offer!  After making those changes I realized that I have created something bigger than myself and it gives me a lot of joy.
