## Resource

Why do the founders who make it keep going even when nobody's watching and nothing seems to be working? Founder Dodge Woodall gets into the unseen return of just keeping going, and why your self-development is the biggest reward you're not counting. Dodge gets into the part of business nobody talks about, the messy middle, when it's relentless, unrewarding, and no one's watching, but you're still showing up. Dodge talks about the night he opened a club, invited everyone, and nobody came, why spreading your bets protects everything you've built, and why the return you're not counting your own growth and self-development is the biggest reward in business.
