As I approach Episode 500, I have been thinking a lot about the self-storage business and my thirty-one years in and around the industry.
I was thinking about what I could share that would be helpful. I had two startling insights. The first was that what would be most helpful is not what I’ve done right, but more importantly, the biggest mistakes I have made.
The second was, as I wrote them out, the realization that none of my biggest mistakes were really about the business itself or about making a bad storage decision, although I’ve made my share. They were personal development flaws in me that had an impact on my business.
Let me share them with you, and hopefully you can learn from them.
