Alex shares some thoughts and reflections he's been having as of late. It's important to disconnect and unplug from your business to discover new ways to be better. Also, don't forget to appreciate your team members and find out on a personal level what motivates them. At the end of the day, if something is not working for you, find a way to pivot because everybody deserves to be happy and to live the best version of themselves. Key Takeaways: Have you been doing something for the last eight months and it just isn't working? It might be tough, but make time to unplug from the business to get your head straight. Disconnect from 'life' and ask yourself thought-provoking questions that help you become better. Alex feels so blessed and grateful to have a team that keeps things moving. It's important you communicate to your team how important they are to your business. Make them feel valued. Some people simply aren't motivated by money. You can't always throw money at people to incentivize them. So, how can you keep them motivated? Alex reflects on a masterclass he had with Haim Mamane. This business should not be just about money. A sustainable business has to go beyond dollar signs and profit margins. Mentioned in This Episode: Feel free to connect with Alex about doing a JV!
