And the only way to coach baseball was to teach school.
So it was a vehicle to get to do what I wanted to do.
And so I went into my good friend, Dan Tuffarello, who was my boss at the time.
It's funny enough, I just hired him to work for us.
He starts Monday.
Yeah, it's great, isn't it?
And I just said to him, hey, this isn't for me.
I'm going to go back to do what I know best.
I just can't do this anymore.
I'm terrible.
I'm sorry.
And he looked at me and he said, you know what?
I told you I was going to give you a year and you're going to do the same thing for me.
I was like, buddy.
I can't do this.
I can't live a year like this.
He's like, well, you have a decision to make, man, because one day your son's going to ask you, why did you stop working at Paychex?
What are you going to do, tell him you quit?
I was like, wait a second, you're onto something here.
So that evening I decided to really get introspective and understand why I wasn't doing well.
