Key Takeaway: As a part of the EOS community, I enjoy the culture of camaraderie and willingness to support fellow EOS Implementers. As an EOS Implementer, I’m not a consultant.

- Reality Check: A Perspective on Tough Times – This article is a bit of a departure from EOS and entrepreneurship, but it has been one of my most-read posts. I reflect on my 52nd high school reunion and the reminiscing my classmates and I did about what life was like when we were growing up—and how it’s really not all that different now.
Key Takeaway: Every generation has faced difficulties. Every decade brings challenges. While many people complain about how terrible things are today, they should know things were at times worse in the past. We will get through it!

I also explain how I get out of my own way and grow my business by entrusting others to do the work that I am not passionate about or skilled at doing.
Key Takeaway: The path to achieving your vision, moving your business forward, and loving your work and life lies in “delegating and elevating” to figure out what you should spend your time and energy on and what you should hand over to others.
