What are you reading? Are you like me and you read multiple books at one time? This is what is on my desk right now.

I learned a few years ago that I do three things better at once than one thing at a time. Now this isn’t always true…..ahem….texting and driving….ahem, but in business it has always been the case.

It might not seem like a book on influence, another on leadership, and another on buying businesses would be best to intermingle in one reading session, and you are right about that.

I read for an hour or so most mornings after the gym and the truth is I like to have options. No matter what book I pick up it’s a win, and to be honest one of the three is usually a reread.

I have a book shelf full of good resources and it never hurts to revisit any of these concepts.

Walker Deibel - Buy Then Build has been an amazing read, and I am going back through the book because I have found myself consulting with business owners about inorganic growth, and these strategies are just too strong to ignore, especially in the $1mm to $5mm revenue space.

What are you reading? I would love to know.

And of course if you want to read a great true story about a search for a more purposeful existence check out Always Forward!

I used to stress constantly about my position in life. I would focus on things that I had very little control over. I can't speak for anyone other than myself, but it seems like a lot of people I meet feel the same way.

My life changed when I stopped worrying so much about the outcome and started to just focus on what I could control. I reverted to goal setting and tried to enjoy the process.

My goals are simple now.

I want to connect with as many people as possible to have as big an impact as possible.

Don't focus so much on Income or Status. Worry more about Impact and Relationships. The intersection of Impact and Income is inevitable if you are committed and disciplined in your approach.

Enjoy the Ride. Always Forward

I bumped into a friend yesterday, who I deeply admire. I have had a front row seat watching him grow and chase his dreams.

He is an extremely talented photographer and continues to have success in his field. As I have published Always Forward, he has been a huge supporter, and I try to advocate for his work whenever I see an opportunity.

It is so interesting to see the similarities for each of us despite pursuing different goals. In a lot of ways the growth is the same.

It is uncomfortable, and the path is never what you think it is going to be. The people you think will advocate for you might not, but others will surprise you with their support and engagement.

I try and remember the English proverb “Rising tide lifts all boats”

I appreciate all the wonderful opportunities I have found in 2023 and I am equally grateful to be able to continue to pull those up around me.

Thanks for the conversation yesterday .hodgeproductions

Business and Risk.

These two words have always been synonymous with each other. Running a business is not the usual 9 to 5 office work with a steady paycheck.

For those entrepreneurs out there. If you are lucky, one day you will find a service or a product that you are able to provide in a competitive market. You will invest more time in keeping your business above water.

It is easy to find yourself entangled in the parts of your business you aren't passionate about. It has happened to all of us at some point. We must adapt, learn, hire, scale, and pivot.

Technology can be your best friend through this process or it can be the weapon your competition uses to grab market share.

How do you assess risk? How do you incorporate technology? Is it part of a perpetual routine?

It better be.
