Success in business isn\\u2019t separate from success in our personal lives. All the pieces in our lives have to be optimized and dialed-in for success, including our relationships and health. In order to grow and improve, self-confrontation is important. We have to be okay with admitting the ways we\\u2019re not showing up and stop blaming our failures on other people. If we want to be more efficient with every moment of our lives and get away from things that aren\\u2019t the best use of our time, we have to be really intentional and always put energy towards what truly matters and moves us forward.
