"Only dead fish go with the flow." - Confucius "A fish that is alive swims to the right or the left of the current or against it." - JC. Biver, this is not for everyone but if you're into upgrading your life, your brand, your relationships, your job .. then it definitely is for you.You may think to yourself, what on earth is she talking about?"All day, everyday, all I hear and read about is how important it is to go with the flow to find happiness and contentment, and now you're telling me that only dead fish go with the flow?"Let's first make a clear distinction.There's "going with the flow" as being relaxed and accept a situation for what it is and not try to control or change it.and,There's "going with the flow" as drowning in the sea of sameness with everyone else to avoid standing out.Standing out and being Unique comes at a price:A life filled with new and unique experiences.Being first.Being different from the majority.Upsetting some people - those who don't understand your desire to feel alive and to constantly grow.To be different requires courage, resilience and humility.Unfortunately through our education system (school, home, church, social circles..), we have been taught (and actually asked) to be ordinary because being different would require accepting failure, facing rejections, asking challenging questions and being wrong a lot!Who wants to fail, being rejected or admitting to being wrong? I certainly don't!But I also know that the only path to success for me is to own my voice and what I stand for. (not easy but with practice, courage, resilience and a good amount of faith it eventually works) Mr. Jean-Claude Biver, "the Godfather of the Swiss Luxury Watchmaking.Don't take it from me! Take it from a man whose life and legacy is full proof of this philosophy. My guest is one I have had the chance to see in action and interview a couple of times. He's a true legend in the watch industry and marketing.I really hope that you'll watch this interview because you'll be inspired .. no matter who you are and where you are in your life.Mr. Biver's wisdom comes from his age, the life he designed and his willingness to be different and take chances.Listen now and learn how Jean-Claude Biver has always stayed on top of his game (even in his 70's) so you can too.
