They also provide a quick overview of what each season has covered so far, setting the stage for what’s ahead in Season 4.

We’re taking another trip back in time with this From the Archives episode, revisiting a conversation that shaped the future of ForeverLawn.

What would your past self from ten years ago think if they could see where you are today? Would they be proud—or would their limited perspective skew what they see?

In this episode, Dale and Brian reflect on an unexpected encounter with Placitas Man, whose simple but powerful advice challenged them to press on, work hard, and not look back. At the time, they could hardly imagine employing more than ten people—but his words carried them through the “messy middle” of entrepreneurship.

Now, 20 years later, they look back to see if his wisdom held true—and how it might apply to your own journey.

Episode Highlights: 

• Dale & Brian move back to Ohio.
• Noticing dominant businesses in the community.
• People will always overestimate or underestimate you.
• Staying “others focused.”
• It’s all about perspective.

When you look at your business, do you think, “What can I get out of this?” or “What can this become?”

After several successfully sold and installed projects, Dale and Brian experienced a drastic change: they actually had a little bit of money.  But what they decided to do with that money next would be crucial in determining the trajectory of their business. 

From entrepreneur to stay at home mom, the analogy of the baby and the cow applies to people all across the board.  This week, Dale and Brian are diving into what this means, and why having the right perspective on your investments is so important. 

At the end of the day, we all have hope for some return on our efforts. But when we keep the end goal in mind, it’s easier to determine if we will view our endeavor as a baby or a cow.

Feeling a little lost? Listen to today’s episode to find out what we’re talking about.

Welcome back to Impact Without Limits.

Episode Highlights: 

• Explanation of the baby and the cow.
• A challenge to shift your perspective on how you view your business.

From the Archives: Some stories are worth revisiting, and this is one of them.

In this special throwback episode, Dale and Brian are looking back at a conversation that still resonates today. If you've ever found yourself stuck in a "what if" moment, wondering what could be on the other side of taking a leap, this episode is for you.

Have you ever wrestled with “what if?” What did you do with it?

Maybe it’s that big business idea, the potentially life-changing invention, or a major career shift. What thought rattling through your mind keeps you asking, “what if?” 

On today’s episode, Dale and Brian share how a casual email between them sparked a “what if,” and quickly transformed into the journey of their lives. 

Had they only wrestled with their big idea and not taken any steps forward, their lives today would look drastically different. They would have missed out on all the possibilities beyond the “what if.”

The key? They had the willingness to say “yes,” before having all the answers.

Today, visualize your own “what if.” Wrestling and exploring help, but you’ll never know what opportunities lie on the other side without taking steps forward. So, what’s holding you back? 

Whatever it is keeping your dreams at bay and stopping you from taking steps forward, recognize on the other side a different life may be waiting. 

It’s time to step into your “what if.”

Episode Highlights: 

• Questions prompted by the email and the phone call to Astro Lawn.
• Seeing through the lens of opportunity.
• A new idea and the trip to New York.
• Visiting the first Astro Lawn dealer in Phoenix.
• Vision, the ability to see what could be, and the importance of stepping out on faith.
