Empire Building 181. 7 Things You Need to Know When You Screw Up
Building an empire is exhilarating, but let's be real—it's far from flawless. If you're anything like me, you've had your fair share of moments over the years where you just wish you could hit a rewind button. I've been reflecting on my 17-year journey, from the highs to the very lows. And honestly? I can be my harshest critic. Aspiring for excellence means inevitably stumbling upon mistakes. Yet, in the midst of empire building, it's those genuine, deep-rooted relationships that matter the most. And let's face it, in any relationship, we're bound to slip, trip, and sometimes nosedive. But here's the silver lining: for those relationships that truly matter, there's a path to redemption. We're diving deep into that. Let's uncover the seven essential steps to bounce back when you falter as an empire builder.
