| It’s Not What Happens to You July 28th, 2024 by Bill Boyajian |
 Some people complain about change so vehemently that one wonders how they get along in life. Change is inevitable and not always pleasant, but it’s not what happens to you that is important; it’s what you do about it. Nothing stays the same, so constant worry about things getting back to normal is a waste of time and energy. It saps your vitality and depletes the natural vigor we should feel after a good night’s sleep. Instead, we should all be alert to how we can respond more appropriately to change and not react as if the world is about to end. Unfortunately, we often think about “our little world” that revolves around us and that’s all we see. We need to put things in proper perspective by looking outside ourselves. When business owners complain to me about how their industry or company or employees or technology has changed for the worse, I know they are on a collision course to failure. It’s not what knocks us down that is the problem. It’s what holds us back from getting up. Which is why it’s not what happens to you; it’s how you respond and what you do about it.

“I needed help orchestrating a succession plan for our business. I had heard that Bill Boyajian specialized in assisting owners to transition their business to the next generation. He knows how to bridge the generation gap and deliver what each needs to hear. I would recommend Bill to any business owner who needs advice on succession planning from a trusted outside professional.”

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
