A new outlook..

In the not so distant past I was a very successful entrepreneur. I had the world by the tail then all at once my empire collapsed.

What happened?

I lost sight of the prize and started taking things for granted. I stopped producing and inspecting those I hired to produce. Health problems crept in alongside personal problems. I was thrown a ring by a quasi nemesis. Only for me to squander that opportunity too. That was in 2013.

Here I am five years later and once again the same individual throws me a life preserver, by employing me to do what I love. Building traffic and working in search.
Will things be different now? I know they will. 

Here is what I am doing differently along with the mindset that I am developing.

Here is what I have not done right:

  • Abandoning all strategy
  • Failing to plan for change
  • Constantly searching for quick fixes
  • Wishing things were easier
  • Constantly starting and stopping

Here is the mindset I am developing:

  • Developing a strategy with a detailed plan for work and life
  • Planning to the point of compulsion while living knowing that the only constant in life is change
  • Learning to embrace long term vision and focus
  • Work at becoming better in all aspects of my life
  • Staying on course towards achieving goals
This has not been an overnight process to get to this point. It has been a long road of disappointments and broken promises. That is the past that has to go behind me.
