Here’s one of the best takeaways from this week’s episode: “You can either have security, or you can have freedom.” Security is great for some people, but for others the freedom to take chances and work towards bigger goals may be their key to achieving new levels of happiness.

Commercial roofers tend to feel like they need to start out immediately as a multimillion-dollar company to be taken seriously as a commercial roofer. Simon believes that the key to finding the happiness you desire with your company is to start small and learn from the people who are successful in the industry. Ask them questions, watch what they have done to reach their goals and model yourself after them. Stop assuming that it is a dog-eat-dog industry. There are plenty of people who are willing to share their knowledge with you and let you know what did work, and what did not. Get out of the mindset that you need 50+ employees in order to be deemed “a successful commercial roofer.” Often, the stress of having a huge company can outweigh the benefits.
- Ask questions, then listen and learn from the answers.
- Find someone you want to model your business after and do so.
- Learn from the mistakes of others.
- Watch for new trends and emerging technology that can help you in business.
- Don’t miss the opportunity to seek the freedom you desire in business.
Overcoming a long-held mindset won’t be easy, but if you are ready to make the change, it can be done. Is freedom what you are really seeking?
