Summary
In 2017, I was having an event at my office and I had a guy who had done a billion dollars in financial transactions.
He was telling the story about how when he was growing his business, he had to take a step back in order to spring forward.
He was making $20K per month and had to take a financial cut in order to reinvest in his business.
The step back is God's way of giving us the vision for what's coming in the future.
This allows you to get ready for the come up.
The setback is the set up.
They give you lessons.
Teach you the clarity.
And allows you to have what you need to grow beyond your wildest imagination.
All lessons have to be learned, mistakes must be made that way you can analyze where you went wrong and come up with a plan to set you up for success.
