EP294: Contractors Triple Crown

Today Eric equates business and life challenges to the "Triple Crown" of horse racing. He uses the three races—the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes—to represent the vision, grit, and legacy phases of a contractor's journey. The conversation emphasizes the importance of self-belief, seeking mentorship, and continuous training (even when unseen) to overcome obstacles and achieve personal and professional goals. Participants in the coaching call  share their struggles with defining success and work-life balance, highlighting the idea that even a "perfect day" can include unforeseen chaos and growth opportunities.

Key Takeaways:

• Clarify your vision and purpose, knowing what you are racing towards in life and business.
• Develop grit and perseverance to navigate the difficult middle phases and challenges of your journey.
• Prioritize your mental health and self-care by establishing boundaries and taking care of yourself first.
• Embrace and learn from the chaos and challenges that are an inherent part of your daily "game."
• Seek out diverse coaches and mentors, especially from experienced individuals, to gain wisdom and avoid mistakes.
