In this episode, our guest David Barnett shared the following insights as well as his story of how he got into consulting and the twists and turns it took to get him there.

You will discover that his story could be your story.

He challenges us to be openly honest with ourselves if we are going to become successful in our journey.

Here are some highlights of what I gleaned from the interview:

  • He got into business consulting because of an unmet need that surfaced from repeated questions.
  • Sometimes it takes a while to see a return on your investment of time, finances and other resources
  • It's easy to develop a scarcity mindset during times of financial difficulties
  • Start small by doing it on the side
  • Business is an asset to make us money. Once it no longer does so, you’ve gotta "kill it."
  • The chatter of what others might think keeps us doing what no longer works. We’d rather look good while we are dying within.
  • Sometimes you only realize after the fact what you wish you had known way before. Hindsight is truly 20/20. Now, it’s learning that needs to take place. 
  • Most people who are in business do not know how to run a business. They operate as a technician in a business rather than a business owner.
