I spent the majority of my early life as a #2
I built businesses, grew teams, created & launched products, made funnels, smashed sales….all for other people
Honestly I didn’t think I had it in me to lead
There are not days that pass that I don’t look in the top right corner in here and a little voice inside me goes:
‘Fuck’
Somehow I’m leading 1000’s of people round the world and I’m just a simple lad from somerset who was too dumb to take no for an answer
It’s a slog ‘at the top’ and the further up you go the problems hit harder….you just build more resilience to them
Like after you lift weights for a while, keep at it – you get callouses
Your body adapts
Alas the pressure of running multiple businesses, leading a massive group, having people rely on you, and a social life that revolves around work/no social life
Can, well, get to me at times
We all deal with pressure our own way – and even when there are days when I really want to throw my phone into the channel and say, I’m done
I’m not sure what is inside me, maybe I’m just spiteful – I don’t like being told I can’t do something….don’t like being told what to do full stop!
But would I change it?
Not for anything
I’ve finally realised that all those people I looked up to in the business world (have become obsessed with reading their biographies) all went through various degrees of nonsense to get to where they are
In return for dealing with that, they get freedom, financial rewards and social status
^^ but they had to pay the piper first
So if you are just starting out and you have just a few customers or you are killing it in 7 figure plus land
Fair play to you
You are doing what other people DONT do
And I tip my digital hat to you
Are You Killing It?
