As I’ve gotten older, I realized I treat male and female friends very differently.
If a female friend says they’re stressed, I’d listen & encourage more.
If a male friend says they’re stressed, I’d say, “Good. It’ll only make you stronger.”
Don’t be afraid to pivot in business.
But don’t change directions without some kind of data to support your decision.
Otherwise, you’ll stay chasing shiny objects.
When you show up every day, it might feel like an endless grind.
Until you hit your big breakthrough.
And you won’t get to that point without all the consistent effort.
It’s the minuscule changes you make every day to improve.
That’s what makes the difference.
Some people only listen to people that are currently having success.
It’s a good method, but I’d also listen to people who have had success and lost it all.
If I can learn from a person’s mistakes to stop myself from making the same ones, I’ll gladly do that.
Vacations for me are just a change of scenery.
I don’t take them because I need a break.
I take them to create memories with people I love.
I try my best to be present when I’m with my people. But I thrive when I make time to still do the things I do daily.
