Life never presents us with a linear path to success. Often, the journey is marred with failures, obstacles, setbacks, challenges, and detours. It’s what we do in the face of the inevitable that determines the level of satisfaction and fulfillment in our lives. My guest today is a Master Bladesmith (in fact, he was able to achieve that status younger than anyone else in history), and the founder of Josh Smith Knives and Montana Knife Company. Today, Josh and I talk about his personal journey from forging knives in his teens, to working as lineman thinking he was making the right move for his family, then back to where it all started as we works to build the next great knife company from the ground up. We cover paying attention to the little things, the mixed emotions of starting a company, developing a powerful team culture, and finding confidence when you don’t have any experience.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:   Knife making as a kid A little bit of early luck Its good to have influence from a variety of men Transitioning from hand made to “production” knives Pivoting to keep providing for the family Business can skyrocket when you go all in Factors for fast growth and success You have to act or you lose credibility Its great to be able to give back Being responsible when pursuing your dream A lot of men lack a vision for the future Support at home is extremely important You have to have confidence in yourself   Want maximum health, wealth, relationships, and abundance in your life?
