Warum Alex gerne Sport treibt

0:00You're a systems guy, you optimize. Would you say everything? Is that fair? I wonder if there's anything in your life that you intentionally leave messy just to like stay human. Yeah, I train. I work out. And I didn't notice. More recently, I've just given to myself the kind of like cart blanche of I work out whenever I want. And I take as long as I want. And I tend to like longer workouts. I like to take my time. Because it was it was a big realization for me because I've trained my whole life. You know, I've trained 20 plus years.

0:31And I haven't really meant like I've been pretty consistent. But you know, there's seasons of you know, being into it versus seasons of like I'm not really into my training right now. It's like I'm just doing it cuz I I know I want to I want to keep what I have, right? Um But the big realization that I had was that I was like what separates the workouts? Because the work like I've been doing this for a long time because I do enjoy something, right? And so I was like well what what do I enjoy the most? And so for me it's like very long morning workouts. Um like you know, multiple hours. And I like doing it with somebody that I like. And if I do that and then I like bonus points if I can eat afterwards with that person and just like shoot the To me that's like the beginning of an amazing day. And I I just do that like my day's a W. And so I think it was like some of the realization that I had actually this year.

1:17Where I just said I have enough money that if I work out I could work out >> one luxury where you just have to have that. >> It's exactly that. And I spend I spend an egregious amount of money on my gym that's in this and I spend I spend more I spend more on this gym than I spent on all six of my gyms put together. That I owned as a commercial gym owner. Oh, really? That's funny. Can I see it after this? I'm so curious. Um and so it's just like I have all the best pieces from all the different manufacturers around the world, pieces that are my favorite pieces. And I and I just I just give myself permission to feel guilt-free about that work. About about training that way. And so that's been that's been one of the big gifts of this year. Real quick, if you're a business owner and you are not growing as fast as you'd like, I'd like to give you a free gift. So, my team and I put together the $100 million scaling road map, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we've had and what stages of growth they went through and more importantly, where they got stuck and how they got past it.

2:16And so, we broke it in these 10 stages and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at and the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources, and finance. And so, no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so, I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information, and if you want us to actually help you deconstruct your business and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page, you can just book a call with my team and we will look at the business, see if we can help, and if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas and we'll do this in person live.
