I have owned a few businesses, two of them for more than 20 years. I’m considered successful among my peers.
But guess what. I don’t read four books a day. I’m disorganised. I get overwhelmed at times. I feel like slacking more often than not. I make plenty of mistakes. I don’t even feel like making my bed every morning!
“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”
Søren Kierkegaard
This is my reality of being a successful businessman. Not the 4 a.m. wheatgrass-drinking, burpees-in-the-sea, abs-crunching, magic-routine you’re being sold constantly on social media.
It’s time we swallowed the Red Pill, people.
