I Walked Away From My Company- Then this happened....

What happens here

Stan introduces System 4: identifying your own weaknesses. He describes himself as a 'ram-forward' type, which can be a flaw leading to mistakes. He explains the importance of balancing personal strengths with others who can fill in your weaknesses, using Timmy (analytical) as his counter-balance. System 5 is about harnessing superstars and riding their energy, like Alex's drive. Stan then discusses System 6: having backup plans for critical functions, such as his own separate snow plowing branch ready for worst-case scenarios.

Goal: Balance personal strengths, address weaknesses through collaboration, and ensure business continuity with backup plans.

What they say

most succinct way to get there. And here's what you've got to do. You've got to respect that difference in those people and give them the leash they need to become what they're doing. That's system four. Analyze yourself, find out what your own weakness is, identify it, and then balance it out. System five, harness the superstar. System five is ride the bull. Find people that have just this rockstar instant quality and then drive that into them more. That's Alex. Alex is exactly like me. He's just he's he's like me when I was 20ome years old. He just wants to go and that is a superstar that you've got to harness. So you you're going to find superstars in your business. Give them the leash to become the absolute best version of themselves they possibly can. And then at times you're going to have to be the person maybe going let's let's dial that back. And then now let's go on to backup plan. I don't even call this a system backup plan. And what you heard Zach talking about is the fact that we've separated our company into different components entirely to different companies. So Dirt Monkey, which I own part of, I own a I own with Timmy, is a complete different organization as the snowplow company that I have all on my own. And these are just backup plans. So whatever you do, you should be as you're planning your business moving forward and going forward, you should also always every step of the way look at what do I have to do to ensure success and what systems do I have in place in case things don't go the way I want them to. What's my backup plan? Now, in our case, Zach identified the backup plan for you. We have Dirt Monkey which does a lot of the snow plowing and then I have a separate branch of equipment, everything ready to go so that we can continue to operate separately if worst case scenario ever comes to fruition. But let's dive back in and see how Zach is doing out on this out on this uh site. We're all done, all wrapped up. So this was the last thing. Now I just got to return this truck to the yard. All right. And then I'm done for the day. At least I think. I don't know. All right. Good evening, everybody. Freaking we're going to We got snow for Hasn't snowed in like two months here. So, but now we got snow. So, I'm going to put you guys up here probably in the corner of the cab here. And we're going to do a long push from here all the way down to the end and see how far we get. So, stand by. That's amazing. And this stuff is like snowman stuff…
