Ep. 8 The Real Action Is Inside Us

In this episode of the rocket ship business academy. No matter what’s going on in our business, the real action is inside of us. In this episode, I am reading from my book 33 Meditations for Seed Stage Founders. This is a book I wrote in 2020 when I gave myself a challenge to write a daily meditation on entrepreneurship - based on quotes from philosophers and thinkers who I admired. This is Meditation #23, and the quote is from Terrance Mckenna. Terence McKenna was an American ethnobotanist and mystic who advocated the responsible use of naturally occurring psychedelic plants. This quote caught my attention because it spoke to something that has struck over and over again in life and business. No matter what’s going on in our external circumstances, the real action is inside of us. If you feel like your business is stuck, this episode will give you a surprising path to getting it unstuck.
