Your Greatest Strength Might Be Your Biggest Problem

After 40 years and 10 companies, here's the one thing I wish someone would have told me when I hit 7 figures. Your greatest strength is also your greatest liability. The drive that built your business is also gonna break you if you don't learn when to put it down. Nobody told me that. So I learned the hard way. You see, I had a company that almost broke me and I was so convinced that my way was the right way that I made myself the ceiling of everything I was trying to build. I was the hardest working person in that company and the company was suffocating. Because of it. And the moment I finally saw that, it was one of the most humbling and honestly most freeing moments of my life. Because once you see it, you can change it. So I stopped being the one who was holding everything together and I started being the one who built a company strong enough to hold itself. If someone had said this to me 20 years ago, it would have saved me a lot of grief. So I'm saying it to you now.
