151 - The Silence of Success

There's a very high percentage of business owners today that are starting their companies looking for an exit strategy.

I am consistently surprised at how often "exit strategy" comes up in conversations with relatively inexperienced entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs who are barely getting started are already looking for a way out.

This is about the most difficult way to start a business and it may make it impossible.

Growing a company is one of the most difficult things any person can choose to do in their lifetimes. When you get into business trying to stop, you add unnecessary constraints that may freeze you in place.

On top of that, exits aren't all they are cracked up to be. Take it from someone who has been there.

The silence of success is deafening.
