What's Your Why?
Become Unstoppable
In the tumultuous realm of business, knowing "your why" isn't merely motivational jargon—it's the essence of your resilience. This deep-seated purpose can drive you to unprecedented heights or anchor you through the fiercest storms. As Viktor Frankl insightfully wrote, "Those who have a 'why' to live can bear with almost any 'how.'" This sentiment echoes through the heart of every entrepreneur facing adversity.
For me, my why is profoundly personal: to be a full-time father. This isn't just about financial success; it's about crafting a life where I can be present for my son, witnessing each milestone without the shackles of a 9-to-5 job. This vision fuels me through life's trials, urging me forward when results are slow to surface.
The journey hasn't been easy. I've battled homelessness, navigated an indifferent family court system, and endured the tainting of my reputation. Yet, through these trials, my resolve has only crystallized, proving that a robust why can transform roadblocks into stepping stones.
