Strike Out!!!

While scrolling through success quotes in the port-a-pot (a common practice to distract me from the smell) I came across one quote that was a game changer for us.

We're told often by our elders in the field how to run our business, do our work, and of course what we should be charging them. The advice is of courseappreciated and to be expected as millennial business owners. The truth is the more we listened the less we enjoyed the work we did by going against our gut and the less success we found. The harsher truth is that most of their wisdom was based on what worked 10, 20, 30 yrs. ago meaning listening put us on what Rockefeller deems "worn paths". 

Through a recent series of battles for the worth of our work we realized this: Our business is our obsession from sun up to sun down. We know what it takes, we know what it costs, and we know the new paths we need to take to be the best we can be. Innovation & Technology are everywhere and the ways of the world are changing rapidly. As business owners it's our job to change with it and find the new paths that bring excellence and integrity to our work. With a commitment to those new paths success comes.   

Rockefeller said it. We did it. And it worked. This 4th qtr. was our most successful one yet and it all started we put in earplugs and decided to STRIKE OUT on new paths. 

And all the millennials in the industry said AMEN.
