Let’s be real—feeling stuck sucks.

Maybe your motivation has tanked, you’re off track on your goals, or you’re drowning in negativity. Maybe it’s stress from business challenges, the never-ending noise of social media, or just the winter blues hitting harder than expected.

Far too many of us struggle with this same issue of trying to keep everyone on our team happy while we trying to keep our business successful, so I felt it was important to share this with all of you.

As the leader of your martial art business there are some hard realities you have to learn to accept.

Reality #1. You will NEVER please everyone. You make decisions for your business based on the best information that you have and that you feel are in the best interest of YOUR business.
