I was talking shop with a friend this morning when he mentioned he’d begun taking anxiety meds over the fear of “what if’s” sinking his company. While certainly being supportive in his feelings I posed the idea that perhaps its the daily “what if’s” that make us as entrepreneurs successful. While forward thinking can lead to frazzled nerves it also makes for smart planning and situational awareness. Two very important factors when it comes to long term financial success. Remember, what scares you can also serve you if reflected in the proper light. – Dad
“Doing well with money has little to do with how smart you are and a lot to do with how you behave.” Engage in the right behaviors and you are likely to succeed. Similarly, no amount of intelligence, savvy, or inside information will save you from the wrong set of behaviors.
– Morgan Housel
