It is human nature to want to succeed, so it is important to set goals before one begins. This avoids the temptation of moving the goalposts closer and allows one to accurately evaluate success in terms of “win or learn” rather than “win or lose”.Lessons Learned:It will not be easy! Know what you are getting yourself into and commit! People are your most important asset, always. Surround yourself with colleagues looking to accomplish the same goal. Don't try to do it on your own.Adapt - With the constantly shifting environment caused by the COVID 19 pandemic, business leaders of both small and large companies are living in a daily pivot. This moment in time took us from the normal "how do you" Google it and ramped it up to an always-on, teach ourselves reality.As my grandmother always said: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again!" Success is not a straight line and the learnings of failure are the most important lessons to get us to the right win.For More Information:Sourced Craft Cocktails: http://sourcedcraftcocktails.com/ (http://sourcedcraftcocktails.com/)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sourced-craft-cocktails/ (https://www.linkedin.com/company/sourced-craft-cocktails/)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-angelillo-942564172/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-angelillo-942564172/)
