As entrepreneurs, business owners and other self-employed types, we are always try to learn how to work efficiently, maximize profits and keep our focus on the future. Sometimes, we overlook an obvious resource. By listening to the stories of how others in our shoes have made the journey to successful business person, we can see how our own stories are either similar or completely different.
I personally love reading biographies of successful business people throughout history. Recently I finished David McCullough's book, "The Wright Brothers". Most of us know the story of these two bicycle shop owners who figured out how to fly and control the flight. However, there were other parts of this story that I learned. Their tenacity, business acumen and planning were integral to their success. This is usually the case of most successful people.
By reading or hearing of these kinds of examples, we can look at our experiences to learn as well. Recently I had Adam Griggs of the Own It Love It movement as a guest on my podcast. We discussed the trials and tribulations or our own journeys and ways to make your own journey work for you.
Take a listen (or watch) and let us know about your success story.
