When you don’t have enough energy to get what you know needs to get done, lean on your teammates for help and encouragement.
Nobody can do it alone.
Superman is a cartoon character.
You’re only as good as the people who are on your side.
So if you want to “win” at business, your main focus should be on mentoring others, since they will repay you with kindness in your moment of need.
Your investment in people may take years to pay off, but compound interest works heavily in your favor.
Look back on who has been there for you and who you can actively be mentoring– to see how you can grow profitably while feeling good about your mission.
