Description

In this special episode, Gresham Harkless discusses the challenges and emotional aspects of starting a new business, comparing the process to the awkward, stumbling stage of a baby giraffe learning to walk.
 
He reflects on the fatigue that goes with juggling multiple responsibilities—personal, volunteer, and business-related—and acknowledges the struggle of managing energy and staying organized, particularly by the end of the week.
 
Gresham emphasizes the importance of understanding and embracing the discomfort that comes with new ventures. 
 
He mentions the idea of "letting go of the previous rung" when climbing to the next level, a concept introduced to him by coach Art Radke.
 
Gresham highlights the importance of protecting one's time and energy, recognizing that being overwhelmed is common in new business ventures.
 
Gresham underscores the necessity of saying "no" without justification as a way of prioritizing and safeguarding one's well-being.
