I was sitting in my office, about to start a class, when I began to reflect on this picture, seeing my corporate car in the background.
I often see people talk about consulting without a plan to network. The truth is, success doesn’t just happen from an idea—it’s built through relationships, strategy, and resilience. Without a network, the best ideas can stall. There are so many lessons to learn on this journey.
Not every business idea works.
Sometimes, even the best plans don’t survive the market, timing, or circumstances. And when a business fails, it brings sadness, doubt, and the heavy weight of asking, “What could I have done differently?”
But here’s the reminder: a failed business does not mean a failed person. Each setback teaches resilience, sharpens strategy, and builds wisdom.
That’s why I celebrate the continued success of Eminent CPR.
For 19 years, Eminent CPR has stood strong, growing into a global leader in healthcare education, training hundreds of thousands of healthcare professionals, partnering with major healthcare systems, and creating innovative ways for nurses and providers to learn.
Our success is not by chance. It’s the result of persistence, networking, and commitment to excellence. Eminent CPR is proof that while some business ideas may fall short, others can thrive, flourish, and create impact far beyond what you ever imagined.
To every entrepreneur: keep building, keep networking, keep going. Your story is still being written.
