In this kickoff episode, I cover the major difference many professionals aren't aware of - when they're working ON versus IN their business. Implications of this are vast.
Here's a great quote about tenacity:
"I love that right now, Jett (my son) is standing, crawling fast, but not yet walking. And the walking is one of the first examples in humans that I'm talking about. The willingness to fall down, the willingness to jack something up, but then not say, 'oh, I'll never get this. Oh, I'll never walk. I'll just be a crawler forever.' The tenacity, the grit, the ability to cry it out. Sometimes when you fall and then get right back up, pull yourself up onto whatever ledge is available."
