Guiding Principle, Quote or Mantra

Are these people that I want to surround myself with?

The greatest success comes from those partnerships where you feel good around your partner.

When You Tripped Up

Hunt entered into a business relationship with a company to come in and shake things up and get things moving.  Unfortunately they really did not want this.

He came in all ready to make changes and but since they did not have a clear definition of what they wanted him to do, and it varied greatly.

Since they weren’t able to be as flexible as they thought they could be, they were not able to give him the room to succeed.

Proudest moment in partnership

When Hunt met the woman who became his wife he was in between jobs and not feeling the greatest about where he was or where he was going.

He doesn’t know what it was that she saw in him that led her past the things many people would have gotten tripped up on like being unemployed etc.

And throughout their relationship even when Hunt would not have bet on himself, she always bet on him.

She saw the best in him when he couldn’t see the best in himself.

And what happened when Hunt attended the U.S. Dating Awards is another great example of this…

What is the best partnership / relationship advice you have ever received?

Find your own way of being comfortable being uncomfortable.

And everybody you meet has something to teach you.
