At the end of the 1970s, I.
Decided to change our game and make a quantum leap. And in your own business?
In my own business.
So. So what were you doing then? You were working with corporate clients at a certain rate and you had a certain amount of clients making a certain amount every year, maybe incremental gains.
Exactly.
Year after year. Five. Yeah.
You know, business was going well, but I realized that, well, what I was.
Seeing on an individual executive level, in terms of the quantum leaps, you know, there's vast differences in terms of people's achievement levels. Companies would do the same things because.
Let'S say you got company a $500 million company, 7% annual growth, okay. And it's doing good. Company B, about the same size, might be a competitor and it's half a.
Billion dollar company and it's growing nicely. But then one day company A goes out and acquires company C and it doubles just like that.
And I was just fascinated by this because it met all of the things I wanted to do, you know, merger.
Integrations, mergers and acquisition for the big table. That's the big game. It's the biggest game in business. And that's where I wanted us to play. And so I said I had set this quantum leap goal for us, which was absurd.
Which I think really good quantum leap goals are.
They're crazy.
They're kind of crazy.
They seem like unrealistic.
Yes.
We shouldn't be going after this.
Right.
Who are you to think you can do this?
But I said, we're going to be.
Number one merger integration experts in the country.
Wow.
And.
We were in six years. I had no business setting out that kind of a goal.
And people think, well, I don't know.
How to do this, so I can't do it.
They focus on the means, not the end.
Right.
And so it's like, well, I don't.
Know how to do that. So that obviously I can't do it.
But anything of significance that a person.
Has achieved over their life, they didn't know how to do it when they started. That's true.
A quantum leap is one of those things that's dead solid, perfect within the.
Realm of possibility for you. You just haven't done it yet.
