Haphazard and chaotic policy making on the run continues. This is weighing on business confidence and soon will be reflected in the economic data. Trump said on his tariffs that there would be ‘no exemptions’ and ‘no exceptions’. He is now actively considering agricultural ‘carve outs’ with respect to tariffs on Mexico and Canada.

I’m sure you’ve heard your fair share of inspirational, zero-to-hero success stories. I’m also willing to bet that at least once in your life, you’ve said to yourself, “Hey, maybe I can make it too.” However, I think very few people understand the amount of dedication that successful people have – whether it’s in sports, a career, or life in general – to achieve what they accomplished.
