I wrote the first installment of this post on September 26, 2010 and ended that post as follows:

Pretty Scary Upside Down
“If you’re the roller coaster rider … how long are you going to be able to stay on the ride before it’s too late? Maybe it already is. What’s stopping you from reaching out for help … the same thing that stops you from asking for directions when you’re lost driving your car? So who are you … the roller coaster rider or the consistent winner who builds wealth in every economy?”
Pride, ego, self-importance, fear of success, limiting beliefs, skill set gaps, lack of confidence?
Now for a bit of coaching … Get over yourself … you’re costing yourself a fortune! You need to step up and start focusing on those areas of your business that make you uncomfortable to deal with. Whether that’s the finances, sales, marketing, managing people – you need to dig in, learn, and experience what you need to so that you become better at running a business. Because until you do … your just a roller coaster rider.
After spending 30 years in the business world: becoming a CPA; buying and selling 16 businesses; building a $200 million airline from “scratch”; and successfully coaching hundreds of businesses owners over the last 7 years … I’ve had more than my fair share of business experiences (and I’m just getting started!) – experiences that you can take advantage of to make more money and to become a true business owner. You see, you can continue the ride, let time pass, and learn through trial and error; or, you can accelerate your learning and wealth by using other people’s experiences, right now!
Call me …. in a two hour complimentary coaching session … I guarantee you that you’ll receive valuable learning (and by the way, so will I) and clearly know where we need to create new and proven experiences for you so that you can finally build true wealth in your business for yourself and for your family. If not now, when? If not you, who?
