Every year. My biggest breakthroughs come when I'm off the grid, when I don't look at my phone, when I'm taking real time away from the business, when I'm snowboarding, when I'm going for nature walks, when I go visit my buddies in a beautiful beach location. These are the moments where I really get a chance to check back into myself and figure out am I going in the right way? Am I going the right path? Am I going towards the right things in my life? Am I doing the things that are going to lead me to the things I want?
