How important is it to like what you do and who you do it for?

Part of my approach to successful consulting is to specialize. To be highly compelling to a small group of people.

But here’s the thing: you have to like what you do and who it’s for.

If one of those is out of alignment, you won’t be successful long-term.

Business is too hard to things you don’t like for people you don’t like. It would be like wearing a weighted vest going up an already steep cliff.

Choose your work and clients wisely.
