“It’s not personal. It’s business.”
Lived by this my whole life, never quite understanding the irony. Business is nothing nor personal. It’s based on trust and confidence, loyalty and connection; things you build with those you are personal with.
When any of these are betrayed due to business reasons; when one puts business first then we lose then we lose ourselves…
Greed is a funny emotion. Masquerading in the name of business, greed for money and material possessions. Capitalism pinning man against man, fighting to survive, to put food on the table.
I did everything I was suppose to do but I can’t find my place. It’s a racket out there. When I try to focus on business and be frank, people take it personal…when I’m emotional people say it’s just business…which is it?
Or maybe why can’t it be both?
