Swing away...
As a big boxing fan, I tend to always compare starting a business to a prize fight.
The opponent is everything and anything that tries to keep us from succeeding.
After watching the travesty known as the Pacquiao/Bradley fight (i had Pacman 10-2 btw), I'm reminded of a lesson I learned all those years watching Tyson - Never leave your future in the hands of someone else. To do this in both the boxing world AND starting a business world, one must have the ability for that "knockout" punch.
We no longer live in a world where simply outworking your opponents and any confronted resistance ensures success. There must be something more. Whether that may be the right connection, a large pool of money, or complete luck, there has to be something that ignites the business to a higher level.
Until recently, we did not have that knockout punch in our repertoire. But now, we do.
We joined forces with Summit Computer Networks - A worldwide POS provider with over 1,400 downloads per month ranging from the U.S to Germany to Russia and beyond.
As the president of Summit told us "It does not matter if you fail 1,000 times. It only takes 1 phone call to change everything."
As we start to wrap our hands and prepare for the next round, we have to consider the most important factor in all of life - TIMING.
It does not matter if you have a knockout punch if your timing is off. We can prepare all we want, but I believe this is up to man upstairs. August 2012, I pray He sets the breeze to our backs. August 2012 - time to swing away...
