In this episode Karel van Vlielt the Founder and CEO of GENE -AI for real estate, shares his success secret behind turning his obsession into a multi million dollar business…
But whenever I do things that I'm genuinely passionate about, that's when I get obsessed.
And so I think it's more of so many people inside the system have been trained to do things because it pays the bills.
Well, if you just do something, but you have no passion for it, you have no ambition for it, how could you develop an obsession with it? So I think it comes really down to figuring out what is the thing that, like you said, I think about when I go to bed, I think about when I eat, I think about when I wake up in the morning.
but if you don't have that you can't create it but you can't i mean there is a way towards it but you can't create the thing that you don't know what to love at this point so let me explain how that works if you don't have that passion yet where you're like oh my god i can't when i wake up i think about it when i go to if you don't have it All you have to do, it's very easy, you just do.
So you create action that produces information, and the information will give you some kind of feedback like, oh, I don't like this, I don't like that.
Because very honestly, at the beginning of business, I wasn't good at business.
At the beginning, I didn't love business as a subject necessarily more than I loved philosophy.
As I am very obsessed in general, I will spend so much time on doing that I'll get good quickly.
