When I started my business, MedRecruit, I set a standard for the results I wanted to achieve and the impact I wanted to have in the industry. To do this I worked 12-14 hours a day, seven days a week, for years. We became the fastest growing service business in the country and outgrew all our competitors by many multiples.

Most business resources talk about getting the right people on the bus, that it’s critical to field the best team to be successful. Great ideal, but how do you define great people?

I have developed a really simple framework.

NASA did an experiment with astronauts making them wear glasses with concave lenses that flipped the image of the world upside down to see how they might react to zero gravity.

We are all creatures of habit. Fact. This is not a problem.

What’s wrong is always available, and so is what’s right. I love Christmas because it’s a time to be thankful for the wonderful people in our lives and the blessings in our lives.
