The dark side of success nobody talks about

I just talked to an interventionist who works with high-powered clients - CEOs, lawyers, you name it...

I asked him what ONE trait all his patients shared.

His answer shocked me: Entitlement.

Not addiction. Not trauma. Not stress.

Entitlement.

When people are used to having everything handed to them, they lose their sense of purpose.

All the yachting, private jetting, and five-star experiences mean nothing without the satisfaction of doing hard things. As Nvidia's Jensen Huang puts it: People with high expectations (entitlement) tend to have very low resilience.

And resilience is exactly what you need to win at anything worthwhile.

This applies perfectly to business growth:

• Doing hard things keeps you humble

• Doing hard things keeps you growing

• Doing hard things keeps you sharp

• Doing hard things keeps you resilient

• Doing hard things keeps you progressing

Speaking of doing hard things... growing a business in today's market is one of the hardest challenges you can take on.

But it's also one of the most rewarding.

P.S. And no, the interventionist wasn't for me ;)
