1560: This question ALWAYS leads me to growth...

Ever feel like you’re running in place, surrounded by the same ideas, people, and routines? In this special Solo Sunday episode, Brian kicks off a brand new daily series by sharing one of the most powerful questions he asks himself to spark a new chapter of growth: "Where is my universe expanding?" He breaks down why your business can only grow to the limits of your personal world and how intentionally expanding your universe—through new connections, skills, and perspectives—is the key to unlocking your next level. This isn't just a motivational talk; it's a practical framework for breaking out of your current borders and creating new opportunities in your business and life.✨ Why This Matters for YouConstantly expanding your universe is a non-negotiable for ambitious entrepreneurs:It’s the antidote to stagnation and echo chambers that kill creativity and opportunity.It’s a direct strategy for finding new markets, clients, and partners you would otherwise never encounter.It connects your personal growth directly to your business growth; as you expand, so does your company.It forces you out of your comfort zone and into a state of active learning, which is where all breakthroughs happen.📝 Key TakeawaysYour business can't outgrow you. Your company’s growth is a direct reflection of your own personal development.Expansion is a prerequisite for growth. You can't achieve new results by staying within your current borders—the same people, ideas, and skills won't lead to a different outcome.Your calendar is the source of truth. How you actually spend your time reveals whether you’re truly expanding your universe or just thinking about it.New perspectives are business assets. Inspired by a Mark Twain quote, Brian explains how exposure to new ideas and people is "fatal" to the narrow-mindedness that holds entrepreneurs back.Apply this question everywhere. Ask "How is my universe expanding?" in the context of your marketing (new audiences), sales (new outreach methods), and networking (new connections).Connections are currency. Every new person you meet is an opportunity to learn, grow, and see the world differently. Even the "bad" connections offer valuable lessons.🚀 Put It Into ActionThis week, sit with this powerful question. Don't just listen—reflect and act:Look at your calendar for the past month. Where have you intentionally spent time expanding your universe? Where are the gaps?Identify one new person outside your industry you can connect with for a virtual coffee this week.What’s one new skill, hobby, or perspective you can start exploring? (e.g., read a book on a totally new topic, take an introductory online class).Ask yourself: In what area of my business (marketing, sales, product) am I "vegetating in one little corner of the earth"? What's one small step I can take to expand it?🔗 Stay ConnectedSubscribe to the show so you never miss an episode, especially during this special daily series!Connect with Brian on Instagram @imetbrianShare this episode with a fellow entrepreneur who is ready for their next chapter of growth.
