didn't

2:35

call cuz they could see I was no longer

2:37

serving them I was only serving myself

2:39

so they took their money and their

2:41

projects to others who would serve them

2:42

better well didn't take long for

2:45

business to drop like a rock my uh

2:47

partner and I Tom we had to let all our

2:50

all our employees go it was down to just

2:52

the two of us and we were about to go

2:53

under and that was great because with no

2:56

employees there was nobody for me to

2:58

manage so so I went back to doing the

3:00

projects I loved I had fun again I

3:03

worked harder and to cut a long story

3:05

short did all the things that took me

3:07

back up to

3:08

success but it wasn't a quick trip it

3:11

took seven years but in the end business

3:15

grew bigger than ever and when I went

3:17

back to following these eight principles

3:19

the black cloud over my head disappeared

3:21

altogether and I woke up one day and and

3:23

I said I don't need Prozac anymore and I

3:26

threw it away and haven't needed it

3:27

since I learned that success isn't a

3:29

oneway street it doesn't look like this

3:32

it really looks more like this it's a

3:34

continuous journey and if we want to

3:37

avoid success to failure syndrome we

3:39

just keep following these eight

3:41

principles because that's not only how

3:42

we achieve success it's how we sustain

3:45

it so here's to your continued success

3:48

thank you very much

4:16
