The Marathon No One Told Me About

ByJowi

Business is not a One Time Thing.​
It is a lifelong journey.

Many believe that they can win in business fast.
At least when I look at their actions, they work like they are done in one year.

That’s also how I got started.
Thinking I just need to post 5 videos to YouTube and it will go viral.
Then I create one product for $100 and I’ll be rich.

Those were the three steps I thought would be what business was about.

Now 8 years later—I learned it takes a lot more to run a successful business.
The work never stops.

I was sprinting in a marathon.
I thought the goal line was at 100 yards,
when in reality it is at the end of my life.

That’s when the Father & Founder Tug-of-War started to happen.
Because guess what—
​Being a Father is also not a One Time Thing.
It only begins with the birth.

Now I’ll be a father for the rest of my life.

With my mind 180% focused on my business (because I thought it would only be for a little),
​I wasn’t really there for my family.

I was in the room.
I was at the dinner table.
But my mind was gone.
​I was absent.

This is when I knew I had to change.

I needed to run my business, where it is a lifelong journey.
And I knew that I had to be fully present for my family as well.

That’s the beginning of the Present Provider.
