A six-figure business collapsed overnight during COVID-19. Instead of freezing, the speaker created a masterclass, which led him to buy and rebuild a handyman company. He argues that gratitude during crisis clears fear and opens the next move.
There was a night when everything came apart, and I genuinely believed I did not have another rebuild inside of me. And let me tell you what happened the next morning. It was really simple. When COVID hit, I watched the business go from multiple high 6 figures to pretty much zero overnight. And one of the things that— I woke up the next morning and I was just full of fear. In fact, that fear consumed me completely, wondering what the heck am I going to do? One of the biggest things I'm going to do is just go out and help people. So I started a masterclass that helped a lot of people, and the next thing did show up, and I got to buy handyman company and had a very specific way of doing that allowed me to build that. And I cannot believe what we've rebuilt. In fact, I didn't think I had another rebuild inside of me. And then again in 2020. And now all of a sudden, I have another build inside of me. But this has gone so much bigger, so much quicker. And I always say, in every adverse situation, there's a big opportunity for gratitude. Gratitude from what you learn from it, gratitude from what you take from it, gratitude in terms of every piece of it. Look for the gratitude in that turmoil, because the minute you find the gratitude, the fear dissipates. The knowledge returns, the intelligence comes back, and you start to make wiser, smarter towards your future, no matter what it is.
