Have you ever seen the movie, The Game? It has Michael Douglas and Sean Penn in it. Douglas is this powerful investment banker who gets a birthday gift from his brother to play this immersive game where all sorts of unexpected things happen to you. In one part of the game. Douglas" character is knocked out, his money is taken and he wakes up in a ditch south of the border. He has to figure out how to get back to his home in the Bay area of California somehow. He ends up having to beg at a truck stop for a ride back to the U.S. and trade his Rolex for cash.
What's the point of all this? Well, doesn't it sometimes feel like this in your business! Doesn't it sometimes feel like you've been dumped on the side of the road with nothing to show for all your efforts and the money you've spent? You are promised one kind of experience and then get something you totally didn't bargain for. You have to then figure out how to make it back to somewhere safe and familiar.
Well, one thing that happened in the movie is Michael Douglas ended up having a life changing experience via the game and in some ways learned what and who is important in life. It is much the same way for those of us who are entrepreneurs. We're are faced with some difficult choices sometimes and forced to learn a great deal about ourselves and what is truly important.
