Everything you want is on the other side of something hard
DO THE HARD THING
As an entrepreneur, you have to make tough decisions. We are a unique breed that chooses to take risks that others would never consider. Many of them believe we're crazy for doing what we do. But we believe otherwise.
Leaving my father's company to start my first company was the hardest decision I've ever made. My wife didn't believe I could do it, so she left me. But it was also the best decision I've ever made. I didn't have much money at the time, but 5 years later I was a millionaire. And I've been happily re-married for 20 years. 😊
Believe in yourself when no one else does.
HEALTH BEFORE WEALTH
You can't focus on growing your business if you aren't mentally and physically fit.
I love growing companies, but I also have a passion for health and wellness. I earned 3 professional certifications in nutrition and fitness. Thought about being a health coach for a minute, but decided to stay in my lane.
I run a Spartan race every year and recently started competing in gravel bike races. 💪 I do hard things like this to stay mentally and physically able to do everything I love... for as long as possible.
