Irritation Brings Inspiration

Irritation Brings Inspiration

Posted by Marcelo Bermudez

I care for my elderly parent with #dementia

It means I wash a lot of laundry. A lot. The machine never stops.

You get familiar with all the settings on the machine and learn tricks of the trade.

The terrible design of the large Clorox bottle is as old as time.

It splashes without a care as you try to fill the bleach dispenser.

As I poured some bleach, I said, “Somebody has HAD to invent a spout or something for this.”

A quick Google search, and “No Spill Spouts” are there to make your life hassle-free for a few bucks.

I admire people who took an irritation and transformed it into inspiration.

They are

  • Confident optimists who see no barriers,
  • Set their intention to solve a problem,
  • Fine with failure, and
  • Stay focused.

Business can bring a lot of irritation.

Use it to bring inspiration so you can stay ahead of your competition.

I write seven days a week to help business owners and real estate investors:

✅ Accelerate value,

✅ Become better leaders,

✅ Access capital
