week 122: each day is a mini life
perpective is everything
thank you to over 11,000 of you who read this weekly and share with your friends and family for behind the scenes on building zero to 10 million dollar business from scratch and beyond.
i also include a personal note in the end so i am grateful that you let me do that without judgement.
the original idea of this weekly note was to just write my experience of building a business and some personal anecdotes from zero dollars in revenue to a million.
having crossed $5M in 3 years, here i am still writing…
with over 11,000 subs here and 50,000 on LinkedIn, i get a ton of encouraging notes and i want to thank you for that.
some CEOs of public companies to early stage entrepreneur or leaders from non-profit world would DM me or message me almost each week as if i just shared their story with my words.
thorough thanksgiving, Christmas and coming of New Year, one thing is clear:
each day is like a mini life.
no one wakes up thinking - let’s have a bad day.
most people wake with hopes of having a good day no matter what comes in front of them and business certainly has a way of throwing everything at you, almost daily.
as we walk into 2025, the perspective i want to have as i took a few days of break is to think of each day a mini life and do the best i can.
i want to go to bed thinking i gave it all, i tried my best , and i did the right things.
on a personal note, as part of the Christmas tradition, our Church organizes a volunteer event for members to serve our local senior living community.
part of it is to buy and personally deliver gifts and spend time with folks in the nursing homes on the morning of Christmas eve.
as a family, we have been doing this for last 3 years and it’s a highlight of our Christmas tradition. (below is my wife and Kiara giving gifts and spending time)
one of my goals for 2025 is do this quarterly as a family and here’s why:
some people over here were joyous and grateful for people like us showing up, singing Christmas songs, giving gifts and spending time.
some people were sad they had to get out of their room.
so for us as a family, it gives a glimpse in the future that it really is about all about perspective and each day is a mini life.
with all the challenges and issues in life and business this year, i have to end the year with nothing but gratefulness in my heart since i know for a fact, some has it worse than me for no fault of their own.
leader point: in business and in life, when you treat each day as a mini life you can live larger than life.
Love this Sangram - so wonderful to see Christ's light aglow in you and your family - congratulations on the business growing as well. So true! Behind the scenes God is weaving BIG life in our days with His purposes being fulfilled with thousands upon thousands of tiny moments (seconds) where we are threaded into to bearing up His love for people who are lost to fear or unbelief and need Him through hands of those who love Him.
