TCF1014: Choose Your Hard

The Contractor Fight with Tom Reber

In this episode, hosts Derek Johnson and Tim Controni dive deep into the hard truths about personal responsibility and growth in the contracting business. They challenge listeners to reflect on why many continue repeating the same struggles without making real changes, even after joining coaching groups like Battleground. Derek and Tim share their personal experiences of hitting "rock bottom" and how finding the right community helped them change the trajectory of their lives and businesses. The key message? You have to choose your hard — the hard of staying stuck, or the hard of growing and thriving.

In this episode, Derek and Tim discuss:

• Why contractors often stay stuck in a cycle of frustration despite having access to solutions
• The illusion that joining a coaching group alone will solve your problems
• The real reasons behind failure to implement what you learn
• Personal rock-bottom moments and how they led to breakthrough growth
• How passion for your trade can keep you moving even through tough times
• The importance of choosing to face the pain of growth rather than the pain of regret
• How participating fully in coaching groups like Battleground can change your business and life
• The concept of "choose your pain" and how to leverage discomfort to fuel your success
