Follow along as we visit with entrepreneurs ranging from main street makers to international business owners. The stories are diverse but the principal is that same. There is a certain mental toughness that comes with entrepreneurship. Some people have it going in, some develop it along the way, while others get discouraged and quit before reaching their full potential.
When we face troubles and bumps in the road, its helpful to pull strength from another person's testimony. If someone has made it through something similar to what you're facing then that's proof enough that you can do it too. Even stories from other industries can parallel the struggles, thoughts, emotions, and situations that you have or might run into.
Join us as we pull strength and encouragement from amazing people willing to share their stories, setbacks, and strategies.

Nick shares some practical lessons from years of figuring out what works, what doesn’t, and how the same core business principles can carry across completely different industries.

Preparing For The Future Rather Than Reacting To The Present

If you’re not prepared for what’s to come, you can find yourself in a place of panic. It’s really hard to make good strategic decisions for your business when you are operating out of reactionary mode.
