What A Career As A Fighter Has Taught Liam In Business & In Life
Manage episode 307244766 series 3007311
Whenever we experience pain
A lot of us often throw in the towel
Allow ourselves to be consumed by it
And face it like a pussy
But there’s a saying called “rolling with the punches”
That speaks in volumes on how we should deal with life
When some days turn into sh*t
And if there’s anything that Liam Morin learned about getting punched in the face
He learned how hard of a bloke he can be
And that pain does not have to be a big deal.
Apart from being an entrepreneur, Liam is an amatuer pro fighter
And a big fan of hunting small game
He’s learned some valuable lessons as a fighter and hunter
That he applies to business and in life
Being in the ring or out hunting in the cold wild of Canada
Has taught Liam how to find his calm
Whenever he finds himself in a dark and uncomfortable place
How hardwork and self-discipline can outlast unfavorable situations
That he can work on his weaknesses
And the meaning of reward delay
I identify with Liam a lot
From being a solo athlete to leading a company
And if there’s anything that being one can teach a lot of people
Is that we’ve both learned the value of getting the right people for the job
And that flexibility in managing the different characters in a team
Has helped our business grow exponentially
But that’s not all that I learned from Liam,
Hit the play button and get to know why I had to have this lad in my podcast.
See you in the episode, legends.
Cheers.
