I’ve heard the analogy, “There is a pack of wolves that are chasing me, and if I slow up, they will shred me, so I have to keep going no matter what,” on a podcast. This quote resonated with me a lot.
The other day, I was having a conversation about feeding this appetite that I have to keep growing and acquiring more businesses. I’ve always approached life as if there was no way to turn back. That every yesterday that got me to today was gone forever, and what I do today will prepare me for tomorrow. I developed this philosophy well before I was in business for myself. I think it was the automobile industry that taught me this. No matter how good of a month you had in that business, it started all over again. This taught me never to become complacent. That no matter the circumstances, I can still grow and become more.
I live by that same philosophy today, and I use that same philosophy when I approach different challenges. No matter what, I can’t slow down because those wolves are on my heels. My competitors, naysayers, jealous people, nonbelievers, and the people that I love and love me are depending on me, as are my team and team members. The most important way for me is forward.
