A few months ago I jumped in on an adventure of a lifetime.
A chance to plan my own business after helping others do the same for 10 years.
The work of a business advisor is to shore up and serve the business founder.
Morning check-ins. Afternoon strategy calls. Evening reflection. Late night impressions.
It all ended so abruptly as it started. With an idea.
___
August, driving cross country with a jiu-jitsu grappling dummy in the seat next me.
Passing the time dodging traffic in HOV lanes and chuckling at the double takes by those passing on rural highways.
Sun riding low on the horizon of wind swept Wyoming. Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Big Magic” dancing between my ears rattled something loose.
A will and a want to support people who had big ideas. The ones that would somehow make the lonely planet out my windshield a more inviting place to live.
___
That want and will has been my constant companion. Walking beside me through financial struggles, relationship challenges, and health scares. Hand on my shoulder. Dirt on its shoes.
A driving force that demands my focus and attention. Morning check-ins. Afternoon strategy calls. Evening reflection. Late night impressions.
You’ve got one of these too… don’t you.
