Welcome to Darin Daily On Demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darin Hardy.

On every Zoom mentoring session, casual walk-and-talks or coffee shop chats, one topic seems to dominate

the conversation, attracting and retaining top-tier talent, those illustrious A-players.

These individuals who excel, lead by example, achieve big goals and bring massive growth

to any organization.

If you're a leader or entrepreneur, attracting these gyms, keeping them loyal and maximizing

their potential is one of the most vexing parts of your job, and there's an excellent chance

that you could have some improvement in doing so.

Today I want to tell you why it is so difficult and what to do about it.

First, we must take a long hard look in the mirror and ask yourself, why did you become

an entrepreneur?

Why did you decide to start your own business instead of joining a stable company where

somebody else is carrying all the liability, risk, headache, stress, and problems?

Knowing this path was wrought with pain, uncertainty, hazard, and potential peril.

Why did you proceed anyway?

Ask yourself, why?

The answer I hear most often is, hell, my own answer to that vexing question is autonomy,

freedom and independence.

I want to be left alone to just GSD it my way.

I really don't take instruction from others well.
