The Grass is Not Always Greener on the Other Side of the Fence
All that glitters is not gold and you have to run your business for you and not your competition.
I was always envious of one of my acquaintances. He had a wife to kill for, two children who excelled in sports and a beautiful home. He went on great vacations, worked out regularly and had a bronze muscled body. He always appeared pleasant and happy. Later in life we became friends and I learned that his wife was beautiful but had emotional problems and they were not close. One of his kids had a drug problem, he was mortgaged to the hilt and had very few friends he could count on in a pinch. All these years, he was envious of me. Me?
I was recently asked to write some comments on “stacking up against the competition.” I am happy to do so, but I think we have to be very careful when undertaking such a project. All that glitters is not gold and you have to run your business for you and not your competition.
