So much content out there about successful businesses only being built for the right reasons... I call BS on this because: 1. Success is subjective. So a successful business is whatever you define it to be. 2. The right reasons are also subjective. World peace is as much of a…
As a front line employee, one of the best things you can do is educate yourself on BASIC business financials. The more you know how you fit into the cog, the more you can control it. And the more you can control it, the easier you can build it for yourself. If you so choose.
Business owners need to expect to suffer. Not as a victim, but as a realist. Nothing of value was ever created without giving up something else of value... Ego Time Money Relationships This is the price of success.
Life is perception. Perception is life.
Your worst days require your best effort. That's why discipline is more important than motivation.
Why are so many people afraid to trust themselves enough to improve from failure? It's "I failed so I suck" Instead of "I failed so now I'm better" Was that knowledge not transferred from the older generation? Certainly doesn't seem like it affected them the same way.
In business and life, always opt for the "road less traveled" Your courage is a beacon for others. Your discoveries are rewards for yourself. And your leadership is admired by outsiders.
On my way back from DC where I gave two talks on leadership and culture. I'm no expert, but I know enough to challenge the mainstream. And here's the thing. People don't listen to your speech because of what you know. They listen because of your courage to say it. So say it.
I never thought fixing fryers would earn me so many travel points... Funny how life works. Keep going.
Building a blue collar business demands skill and dedication, but without resilience, none of it matters. It's about facing challenges as they come, adapting to change, and overcoming every mistake you inevitably make. Your grit becomes the foundation of your success.
For my visual learners out there. Here's a simple explanation of cash flow. I've often said this is the most important part of your financials to understand. Many wildly profitable companies have folded because they didn't understand (and couldn't control) cash flow.
Mixing old-school vibes with new-age tech is the secret sauce for blue collar businesses looking to level up. Stick to your roots but don't be afraid to embrace the future. It's all about evolving without losing your core identity.
Truth about winning is you have to start where you are, with what you have, right now.
The blue collar world has taken me to: Grand Canyon AZ Cabo San Lucas Mexico Banff Canada Atlantis Bahamas And soon, Reykjavík Iceland Among many less interesting places... Skilled trades offer more than you realize, if you're open to letting it.
