I had a Serious Conversation with My Dad, and His Career Advice Shocked Me
He observed my lifestyle for two weeks and gave me counterintuitive lifetime advice
My dad is a small business owner who successfully scaled his business in Indonesia. He scaled them to $1Million+ in revenue.
He has been doing this for the majority of his life.
When he comes to the States to visit me this year, we have a deep father-son discussion about life.
His wisdom in scaling and business has really changed how I view my life and my career.
Although it is counterintuitive to the advice I heard from my mentor for the work environment in the United States, it is very eye-opening and refreshing.
It helps me contemplate my life and gives me more guidance in navigating my career.
These are the three biggest lessons that I learned from our conversation.
Business owners have more time if their business is going well
This message shocked me.
He said, “If you are always busy as a business owner, your business is not doing well.”
