It’s Good to Be King… NOT!
Napoleon Bonaparte.
As a general, he had an influential role in the French Revolution. A few years later, he named himself Emperor of France.
A decade after that, it fell apart and he was exiled to a remote island, where he lived until he died.
Although his fall from grace embodies “built on pillars of sand”...
In many respects, he had only himself to blame.
But the story of Napoleon’s brother Joseph is a better example…
While emperor, Napoleon made Joseph King of both Naples and Spain…
Years later, and through no fault of his own, though…
When Napoleon was exiled, Joseph also had to flee Europe, ending up in a fledgling place called the United States.
Imagine having to flee lands you rule over for a land that wasn’t even 40 years old… and where he was just a regular person.
Shed no tears for him, though. Sure, he was now a regular person in a foreign land instead of ruler of his own lands, but he was still wealthy and respected.
But that’s not the point. It’s that nearly everything he had vanished in the blink of an eye…
And none of it his doing.
If it can happen to a person in his position, with his titles and family connections, it can happen to anyone.
That’s why you must be vigilant and prepare your biz (and yourself) for bad intentions, whims of fate, the malice of others, and other forces out to sabotage.
It’ll help protect you from the devastating consequences when it all goes wrong.
And rest assured… it’s not a question of when, not if.
You’ll need Ad Intentions to do it right, though: https://www.damalamedia.com/ad-intentions
