    Using the Us Doing Our Thing model makes entrepreneurship human and approachable.

    If you’ve ever spent a day in the office staring at the clock and just waiting for the day to be over, then you’ll know the value of earning money doing something you love.

    That’s where Us Doing Our Thing – UDOT, for short – comes in. It’s an entrepreneurship model that adds a little process to doing what you love and figuring out the rest along the way.

    UDOT entrepreneurs, or UDOTs, work for themselves rather than a boss. They focus on what they’re good at and what gets them excited.

    Sounds great, right? But there’s a catch: UDOTs aren’t very good at the logistical and technical side of things.

    That’s a problem, because success is partly built on these foundations. After all, no business is going to make it if it can’t get a website up and running or comply with existing laws and regulations.

    But UDOTs either don’t care or aren’t very good at that stuff. They like working things out on the fly.

    If that sounds familiar, these blinks are for you. Think of it as the business part of your business – the essentials that support the fun stuff.

    It may make the UDOT style of entrepreneurship sound like the worst business model possible. It might be chaotic, but it’s also rewarding.

    Granted, it doesn’t fit the common sense idea of what a business is – it’s not about planning and minimizing risk at every turn. Nor is it about making as much money as possible. What it is about is living in the moment, being flexible and experiencing your version of success.

    You have to make enough money to live well, of course, but as your parents probably taught you, money can’t buy happiness.

    Few things nurture the soul like freedom. That’s what UDOTs cherish above all else – the chance to seek out exciting new opportunities and never be bored.

    It may go hand-in-hand with project-based work and a degree of financial insecurity. But it’s worth it.

    The upsides? Well, they include working when and where you like, seeing more of your family and friends, pursuing your interests and turning down work you don’t care for.

    Ich bin begeistert. Ich liebe Bücher aber durch zwei kleine Kinder komme ich einfach nicht zum Lesen. Und ja, viele Bücher haben viel bla bla und die Quintessenz ist eigentlich ein Bruchteil.

    Genau dafür ist Blinkist total genial! Es wird auf das Wesentliche reduziert, die Blinks sind gut verständlich, gut zusammengefasst und auch hörbar! Das ist super. 80 Euro für ein ganzes Jahr klingt viel, aber dafür unbegrenzt Zugriff auf 3000 Bücher. Und dieses Wissen und die Zeitersparnis ist unbezahlbar.

    Extrem empfehlenswert. Statt sinnlos im Facebook zu scrollen höre ich jetzt täglich zwischen 3-4 "Bücher". Bei manchen wird schnelle klar, dass der Kauf unnötig ist, da schon das wichtigste zusammen gefasst wurde..bei anderen macht es Lust doch das Buch selbständig zu lesen. Wirklich toll

    Einer der besten, bequemsten und sinnvollsten Apps die auf ein Handy gehören. Jeden morgen 15-20 Minuten für die eigene Weiterbildung/Entwicklung oder Wissen.

    Viele tolle Bücher, auf deren Kernaussagen reduziert- präzise und ansprechend zusammengefasst. Endlich habe ich das Gefühl, Zeit für Bücher zu finden, für die ich sonst keine Zeit habe.
