Have you ever listened to another entrepreneur's success story where failure hasn't been part of the equation? I don't mean a big "fall flat on your face" moment, though that happens sometimes too. I'm talking about the jobs we didn't get or the experiences we just missed that led to us creating our own paths and landing in a much more successful place.
How did you become an entrepreneur? As I reflect on my own journey, often the good things that have happened in my career have come out of failure. And I wouldn't change the lessons learned for anything!

It's a question that I couldn't answer, but maybe you can...What do you DO all day?
Most of us will say we are "SO busy" but are we really? I made a choice that seemed a bit rebellious and naughty at first. You'll have to listen to find out what it was, but in putting Parkinson's Law to practice (look it up!) I started doing something different in my business and now it's making me wonder what I do all day.

Having to fire an employee can be awful and zero fun! And if you're a first-time boss or new to owning a business, you're going to have to fire someone eventually.
Is it possible that instead of firing someone, you could work on improving their performance so you don't have to? Naturally if it's a character issue (lying, stealing, etc) just rip that band-aid OFF! If it's a performance issue, I'm going to teach you the 2 things I learned to consider before making the decision to let the employee go.
