I make a conscious effort to only work with founders who’ve developed a resilient mindset for small business success. From my experience<\/a>, this mindset leads to small business owners not only having an unparalleled drive and determination to reach their goals, but also a willingness to look beyond any challenges to see opportunity. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several years ago, ESPN’s 30 for 30<\/em> series of documentaries were very popular, garnering a lot of attention in recent years. The series, which chronicles high profile personalities, important events and impactful stories from the last three decades, were nothing short of compelling. One of my favorites was \u201cArnold\u2019s Blueprint,\u201d a 12-minute film that highlights the unlikely story of Arnold Schwarzenegger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like most of you, I enjoyed his movies, but his background in bodybuilding fascinated me. What I didn\u2019t know was how it all began and what he had to go through just to get to the U.S. It can all be traced back to his strong conviction, belief, even in the face of seeming impossibility. The only person who believed he could be successful was him. Everyone else thought he was crazy to pursue a dream they thought would never materialize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have the time, I definitely recommend viewing the video.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
