Your ego gets in a way cause you're embarrassed.

You don't understand it or you haven't figured it out yet.

And that actually put an anchor onto the business.

And when you put an anchor on a boat and try and go down, down the way of the water, you know what happens?

Um, that anchor only gets heavier.

It picks up weeds.

It gets stuck on a rock.

And you become the stalling point to your business.

So there were areas of the business I needed to let go and allow others or get rid of and allow others be able to, with better capabilities, be able to lead that space of the business so I could focus on the major things of our business that I can have better control of.

That's a great question.

Easy answer for me.

One, my biggest advice for people in business, especially early business, when you find someone great, make a place for them.

Find a place to bring them into the order.

A lot of times we get caught up in going, okay, this is what I need.

And that's important.

You got to know your capability.

But when you see talent, there's talent there.

don't hesitate to bring that talent into the organization.

The other thing is watch what the word talent means.

Talent with people is, I'll say this, when you look at like the high, you look at the grid, right?
