As you build your empire, you will discover some want you to fail. It is an unfortunate reality, but you mustn’t stop expanding. In this article, I’ll explain why you can’t let enemies win and HOW to defeat them…
I am constantly looking for like-minded people to support me in fulfilling my purpose. That’s why I say, “No empire has ever been built alone.”
NONETHELESS, PEOPLE ARE NOT ALWAYS WHAT THEY SEEM…
Because of this, you can find yourself associated with the wrong people despite your due diligence.
Grant and I found ourselves in that exact situation, and it was a massive blow to our organization — as well as my pride.
I’m going to share our story so you know how much good can happen if you just don’t stop…
Recovering from a BIG Hit
Now, Grant doesn’t always implement my ideas. However, I like to pride myself on the fact that the ones he does always work — well, almost…
A few years ago, I really pushed Grant to partner with a certain organization.
ON PAPER, THIS PARTNERSHIP WOULD FAST-TRACK US TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL OF SUCCESS.
Despite numerous red flags, we kept pouring our resources into this deal in hopes of making it go right…
But in the end, the partnership didn’t happen…
We wasted a lot of time and money…
And on top of that, these former “friends” sought to ruin our reputations!
Since it had been my idea, I was especially humiliated and wanted to crawl into a hole and hide…
I STARTED HEARING A LITTLE VOICE TELLING ME, “DON’T STOP OR THEY WIN.”
So instead, I got creative…
The Reward if You Don’t Stop
After feeling bad for myself, I remembered a passage from one of my mentors. It said the best revenge is to flourish and prosper.
With that in mind, I began thinking about all the ways that our empire could get bigger and better…
From this big hit, the concepts for some of our most successful ventures were born. For example, the Cardone Business Coach program and opening our real estate fund to non-accredited investors.
So what I’m telling you is that if you have been stung by those you thought you can trust, don’t stop!
In the end, it presents the opportunity to build something even more amazing than you ever imagined.
Don’t Stop Building Your Empire,
Elena Cardone
