Chris Flett posed a blog earlier in the week discussing his love for stress and pressure and how it brings out his best game.  I know he thought I would kill him because I preach “balance”, rest, nutrition and a host of other “fluffy” things that he isn’t concerned with because they don’t have (at least in his mind) a direct correlation with making cash.  Here in a nutshell is what I love about being a business owner who isn’t afraid to be authentic.  I see it all the time, people try to be something or someone they are not in business and this mistake robs them of their passion, enthusiasm, drive and vision for building a business in first place. What’s refreshing about the new paradigm of business is the permission business owners are giving themselves to be authentic, to be transparent, to honour what works for them and the development of their business.  I don’t like being stressed and Chris doesn’t like meditating, but, we both run successful businesses that mirror many fundamentals and systems.  I do it in a way that works for me and he does it in a way that works for him.  Be authentic everyday in business – it’s the only way to stay in love with what you do.

All the best,
