Chapters

I can remember when I started Complete Game Consulting, I decided to go all in on it. I gave up my book of business. I made Complete Game Consulting my full time business. I remember a particular day where I just got my ass kicked. Everything went wrong. I think I lost a couple clients. I lost a coaching arrangement that was bringing in some nice money because they were going in a different direction. And I had that moment, honestly, where I thought about, okay, this coaching business might not be for me. I might want to think about going back and selling insurance. But I can remember going to bed that night and it was a pivotal moment in the growth of Complete Game Consulting where even though the day sucked, I had my doubts about the future of the business. I went to bed excited to get up and do it all over again.
