Hard Wired Hustler If your ultimate goal isn't sipping a fruity drink on Cabo beach, that's okay! Many entrepreneurs seek to find a path to freedom in terms of time and money but to others, that's pure boredom. Hustle Good, Hustle Bad? What's your definition of hustle and grind? This phrase carries conflicting ideas. On one hand, society idealizes those who push themselves to the brink and on the other, it means if you're NOT frantic and exhausted, you're inadequate and lazy. These concepts cause an internal struggle between expectations and reality so, it's not about whether or not you should hustle...it's about HUSTLING THE RIGHT WAY.  Speaking of the right way to hustle, what would Jay Pierson Say?
