“Find a job doing something you like, and
you will never work another day in your
life.”

This got Tim thinking
![Page 6: Starting a business](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54919d3bb479599b2b8b4bd8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Tim
loved
art

He also loved
travel

What could he do that would
allow him to
combined the two?

![Page 9: Starting a business](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54919d3bb479599b2b8b4bd8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
He came up with the idea of
an online art gallery
![Page 10: Starting a business](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061302/54919d3bb479599b2b8b4bd8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A digital gallery that would allow people to view art sourced from all over the world.
From anywhere you have internet connection.
Which could be purchased and delivered to your door.

It was a great idea.
Tim would have to travel
to find the best artist to exhibit
and
he would spend most of his time looking at art

Five years later, Tim lives in
New York selling art on the
most innovative online art gallery in the world.
