Growth Ceilings Are Real—Here’s How to Smash Yours

I think if you're hitting a growth ceiling, it usually comes down to a lack of vision for the entrepreneur where you're either nervous or unsure that you can push that envelope even further. So surround yourself with other good leaders, plug yourself into multiple mastermind communities where you're around other growth minded people. There's that old saying, if you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room. But when you actually surround yourself with other people and are inspired by other people, it stretches you. Last night I met somebody who just acquired a 75 year old Australian firm and he was walking me through how they did it and it was very inspiring and it stretched me, right? I was sitting with the head of a big digital marketing agency and he runs all the biggest digital marketing conference in Australia and he stretched me. It's when you're around those people and it stretches you, I think that allows you to remove the glass ceiling and then the next one is remembering to always uplevel your team and uplevel your people, right? If you're hitting that ceiling, it's often because your people aren't stretching. In art, seeing the ways to build something bigger.
