Day 22: Think Beyond Borders. How Staying Local Kept Me Small, and Going Global Changed Everything.

Most people build their business inside one territory… and stay stuck.

That was me. I thought dominating my local market was enough—until I hit a ceiling.

Real growth began when I thought beyond borders.

In the beginning, I focused only on my territory. I wanted to be the best there.

I thought, “If I master this area, everything else will follow.”

It didn’t.

I worked harder… but the market was too small. Growth slowed. My energy dropped.

That’s when I realized: if I wanted real scale and freedom, I had to think globally.

But global expansion didn’t start with a plane ticket.

It started with relationships—I reached out to existing contacts in other countries.

Business associates. Former clients. Friends of friends.

Then I traveled—intentionally.

I adapted to each culture. I listened more than I spoke.

And my business started growing faster than ever.

Today, most of my income doesn’t come from where I live.

It comes from the global network I built—one relationship at a time.
