I just got back from the gym and I had a conversation actually with a young entrepreneur. What they said to me was, well they asked me a question, they said, “Hey look, I’m either thinking about traveling or thinking about growing my business. What do you think I should do?”
The first thing I thought of is, “Why are you living in the world of or, there’s an and here too.” It reminded me of something my wife says to me often but says it to a lot of people, and she does it very effectively. The question she just turns around and asks and says, “What else is possible?”
Now if you’ve been a listener for a long time, or you’ve done coaching with somebody in our team, you’re really familiar with the Five to Thrive. It’s a holistic representation of your life.
What is success without freedom? Now, this is a common question I ask business owners when I’m coaching them, or just even during an initial conversation. The reason I ask this is oftentimes as business owners we actually go after success so hard that we lose freedom. I’ve certainly been in this case. When you’re looking at this even if you’re an employee or you’re going after another goal. Right? You’re trying to build your first business, or maybe you’re just working a typical 9:00 to 5:00, but you’re really going after the author of your own story lifestyle so you’re putting other things aside.
I was talking to a business owner just this morning. We were talking about were his business goals, but it became very clear that he wasn’t actually fulfilled. This is a common conversation with business owners. What came evident is that he was actually scheduling time in his calendar for sales, for marketing, for his staff, and for his family, but what he wasn’t doing was prioritizing the time for himself. He wasn’t filling his own cup.
Do you have a goal, or a dream, or something you want to do, and you just can’t take the first step? Take a whack at it. You know, you can’t hit a home run unless you step up to plate. You can’t catch a fish unless your line is in water. Whatever it is you want to do, go for it right now. I’m giving you full and complete permission. If you want to sing, go sing in the shower. Sing to your friends. Go to karaoke. Give it a shot.
I was having a conversation with a young entrepreneur and what he was telling me was he actually moved on to his third business, but the problem he was having is his second and first business had actually had to be closed down because they weren’t becoming successful anymore. Now, they used to be widely successful. When he started with his first he worked his tail off, learned the ins and outs of business and what it took to run a business, actually was able to scale it and then freed his time and used his capital that he had gained from the first business, the money he made, and implied the second business, which I think is actually really smart. Then he did the same thing with the second business, but while he was building a second business, his first business started to diminish, right?
Just today, I had a conversation with the team members of one of my businesses. This was the leadership team for one of my marketing agencies. We meet each and every week, and one of the things that I told them, and I was upset. I was laying into them because I thought we were playing small. I thought us as a whole entire team weren’t living up to our potential, and I was actually really upset.

Just the other day, I was doing an intensive coaching session with a client of mine. Now, these coaching sessions typically are done in person over one to two full days. We happened to be doing this one remotely because this person was actually overseas. Now, I’m not going to tell you too much about his business, but I’m going to try to relate this story to you because you definitely know who I’m talking about.
Today I want to talk specifically about relationships. But this can be applied to the whole five to thrive. You see, in the last 24 hours, I’ve had the privilege of coaching two powerful men. These are both business owners, who are powerful in their own right. But both of them shared with me something that they were embarrassed about. They were struggling in the area of their relationships.
