What A Career As A Fighter Has Taught Liam In Business & In Life

View descriptionShare

Whenever we experience pain

 

A lot of us often throw in the towel 

 

Allow ourselves to be consumed by it

 

And face it like a pussy

 

But there’s a saying called “rolling with the punches” 

 

That speaks in volumes on how we should deal with life

 

When some days turn into sh*t

 

And if there’s anything that Liam Morin learned about getting punched in the face

 

He learned how hard of a bloke he can be

 

And that pain does not have to be a big deal.

 

Apart from being an entrepreneur, Liam is an amatuer pro fighter

 

And a big fan of hunting small game

 

He’s learned some valuable lessons as a fighter and hunter

 

That he applies to business and in life

 

Being in the ring or out hunting in the cold wild of Canada 

 

Has taught Liam how to find his calm

 

Whenever he finds himself in a dark and uncomfortable place

 

How hardwork and self-discipline can outlast unfavorable situations

 

That he can work on his weaknesses

 

And the meaning of reward delay 

 

I identify with Liam a lot

 

From being a solo athlete to leading a company 

 

And if there’s anything that being one can teach a lot of people

 

Is that we’ve both learned the value of getting the right people for the job

 

And that flexibility in managing the different characters in a team

 

Has helped our business grow exponentially

 

But that’s not all that I learned from Liam,

 

Hit the play button and get to know why I had to have this lad in my podcast.

 

See you in the episode, legends.

 

Cheers.
