My Company Sells Products Containing Kratom. The Government Should Regulate Us
It’s not all up to the government. At my company, we have chosen to revamp our packaging to fill it with warnings and QR codes encouraging people to get more information. If we see that a customer orders a lot within a short time frame, we call them to make sure everything is OK. Businesses should do all this and more.

Unlock Success By Scaling Your Company With These Best Practices
Many entrepreneurs focus on starting new businesses. But your ability to scale your business is what unlocks real value. Scalability, as Investopedia explains, is a company’s ability to “perform well under an increased or expanding workload.” How well a company scales will determine its long-term success and survival.

I Wish I Knew Beforehand: Insights For CEOs Who Want To Rapidly Scale
In a rapidly growing company, developing scalable systems and processes should be a priority for entrepreneurs. I often say that there are very few systems and processes, and getting the right ones in place leaves us with fewer questions about what a brand might become. Here is a case in point: One of the first things I had to overcome in my company was standardizing compensation. If three people were candidates for the same role, it didn’t matter who they were related to.

Emotional Resilience: The Necessity CEOs And Entrepreneurs Don’t Always Realize They Need
Emotional resilience is a key quality for CEOs who want to build and maintain excellent leadership. A leader lacking in this area might find it more difficult to adapt to overcome tough situations and inspire those around them. This could eventually lead to huge financial losses, strained relationships and health problems.

Why Many Business Tips Don’t Have Merit
As an entrepreneur, I often tell people that they can just try things out because in entrepreneurship, there is a relative lack of structured systems and processes to follow. You throw spaghetti against the wall and see what sticks. In other words, there is no “secret to success” because what works for one CEO may not necessarily work for another.
Forbes
The Isolation of Millions of CEOs Facing Growth Pains
The life of a CEO can be a particularly lonely one, especially when steering a company through an explosive growth phase. When a company is a startup rather than a full-fledged enterprise, it lacks structured systems and processes. But as the company progresses and enters a growth phase, new opportunities surface—and along with them, new challenges.

Let’s Talk About Feelings: Getting Out of Your Mind and Into Your Heart
We all feel happy, sad, mad, excited, sorrowful, joyful, embarrassment, etc. at various times throughout our day and life. All these feelings are typically associated with a triggering event and our bodies recognize these feelings internally. In that moment, we have two choices: we’re either going to let them out or keep them in.

Want to Change Your World? Lead from the Front
If I’m being honest, when it came to messages for my wife, there was a small part of my subconscious that was hoping for a text message back or response that creates some mutual level of adulation. Lindsay wasn’t expecting any of these messages. Like I mentioned earlier, you don’t announce you’re making huge changes, you just make them.

The Power of Saying “No” in Our Relationships
Owning your truths will also begin to open up the pathways for more in-depth conversations with your partner about your likes and dislikes, as it applies to much more than just food and movie choices. It’s from this place of authenticity, of love, and of vulnerability that I believe true, transformational relationship growth occurs.
Project Bold Life
Think about how the mind works and how things around you influence your mood, thoughts, or behavior. What you consume is important. It’s not just about what you eat. It’s about what you watch, what you read, what you listen to, and the people you spend your time with. Why not consume things that will propel you forward?
Project Bold Life
I propose a healthy modern relationship will have flowers presented consistently. They will be presented on Tuesdays because you thought about her. They will be given on a Thursday because you know she had a tough day at the office.
