When Your Business Success Feels Like Failure

What if the business you built to create freedom became your prison instead? This paradox haunts countless entrepreneurs who've achieved external success while losing their lives in the process. Simon Severino faced this exact crisis-his consulting business was profitable, but he was miserable, overworked, and trapped. The breakthrough came when he stopped treating business growth like an endless marathon and started approaching it like a series of strategic sprints. His method, now used across 114 countries, offers something rare: a path to sustainable growth that doesn't require sacrificing your sanity. The core insight? Most businesses don't fail from lack of effort-they fail from lack of strategic focus. By breaking growth into 90-day cycles with clear metrics and accountability, entrepreneurs can finally escape the hamster wheel of constant hustle without tangible progress. Strategy isn't about complexity-it's about clarity. Most entrepreneurs drown not from lack of effort but from lack of focus, mistaking motion for progress.
