What if everything you’re chasing is something you already have?

A businessman went on a fishing trip in a small village.

As he watched the fisherman skillfully catch his haul, he asked, “What’s your routine?”

The fisherman replied, “I wake up early, fish for a few hours, sell a bit, and spend the rest of my day with my family and friends.”

The businessman said, “Why not catch more fish, save up, buy a bigger boat, and eventually run a fleet of fishing boats?”

The fisherman asked, “What for?”

“To make more money, retire early, and spend time with your family,” the businessman answered.

The fisherman smiled and said, “Isn’t that what I’m already doing?”


***Ready to discover if you're already living your best leadership life - or just chasing someone else's definition of success?

Like the wise fisherman, true resilience isn't always about doing more or being more.

Sometimes it's about recognizing the strength you already possess.
