My mom’s front tooth feel out before the wedding. She looked like a country bumpkin in a scene from the thriller, attack in the trailer park.
Or as my sister explained it, a redneck vampire.
She was horrified. Upset. She didn’t want to go. She was afraid of what others would think of her.
Life gets in the way they say. There’s never enough time.
And to that, I say bullshit.
I’ve been there. When I started taking over my company, I was forced to figure out what business really was.
16 hours a day clawing and scratching.
It left me no time for the things that mattered. It left me with no time for my inputs, as Nicolas Cole would say.
I gained weight. I sat at the computer, the phone, hammering out results.
At the time, it felt needed, but that’s not the way to live life.
It’s sink or swim they say, and I tell them, they’re full of shit.
It’s the mantra for a lot of small businesses. It was the mantra for mine.
I sank. I nearly drowned. That’s the problem with this view on business and in life.
You don’t just sink. You drown. You die.
I felt like I was going to die. Like an atomic bomb bursting in my chest.
It was an early weekday morning when I got the email.
“Your Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) caught on fire in flight, and you’ll pay for the damages.”
Our client had to divert passengers, there $350,000 APU was now as useless as burnt toast, and I was expected to pay for everything.
EVERYTHING!
