Transcript

Like most startups, though, it's a lot of heavy lifting. I mean, here you are. What kind of sock do we produce? Where do we go to have them manufactured? How do we get them at scale? Where do we start? You're going to need capital. Walk us through that piece because that's not easy. What you did is not easy. And it felt it felt a little easier at the time because I think we were so passionate about it, so interested in it. And the thing that I tell all entrepreneurs is, you know, you can look at where we are today and be like, oh, God, it must be so much work to get there. And I always tell people the same analogy. I'm like, look at it's like. Climbing Mount Everest, right? It's like. If you think about it as like, I'm going to show up to Mount Everest and start climbing up this mountain, like that seems near impossible. But if you break it down into small steps, right, and think about, you know, the different stages and, and then you think about what you need to do in order to make to, to each stage, the gear or the physical preparation, you start to break down all the little pieces. It starts to become, you know, you don't try to tackle it all at once. And so for us, the first step was we said, OK, we've got we're going to donate a lot. We need to sell a lot in order to sell a lot. We need to create a product that differentiates itself in the market.

The seeds you plant today could be tomorrow's, next week's, next month's, next year's, or 10 years from now harvest and it is best to... Keep planting seeds. Years ago, I connected with Cassie Adkins. At the time, I was networking and over time, we commented on each other's posts, got to know each other a bit, and then as I saw she recently went on her own (go Cassie!), started listening to her podcast! Check out, You're Not Actually A Leader! Recently, I connected with my friend Joshua Wilson at a Zoweh with Michael Thompson men's retreat. Josh has several podcasts. (Uncensored Advice For Men, Podcast Host Army, and The Deal Scout) This morning, I got a text from Josh with this picture as they are talking. People are talking, connections are being made, the world continues to get smaller, this platform is pretty cool. CTA: If you know these two, and want to get to know them, subscribe to the above podcasts, something tells me we will be hearing something great soon.

Tag someone who needs to catch this episode. This episode of "Fueled by Spite" discusses the importance of making "halftime adjustments" to avoid "creep" - a lack of focus and distraction by new interests. Dr. Taylor emphasizes the need to set clear and measurable goals, reward progress, and eliminate activities that do not contribute to achieving those goals. Take ownership of your actions and make necessary changes to stay on track towards success. https://lnkd.in/gP7qq5yz #podcast #fueledbyspite #dfw #nrh #noexcuses

Your values and your mission will drive your success far faster than saying "yes" to everything. Taking business just for business sake doesn't always support your goals - instead, think like Howard Taylor and keep your values and boundaries front and center to get the most of your efforts. #founder #innovation #community #thehowardhour #podcast #strategy #innovatorsJourney #journeyThinking #NP
