And the Fortune 500 company is still growing. Last year, despite the havoc Covid-19 wrought on markets worldwide, Insight\u2019s stocks tripled.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; It\u2019s been a 34-year-long journey for Tim at Insight\u2019s helm, one with plenty of learnings. Among these? That anyone can achieve what he has, so long as they\u2019re equipped with four key tools in their belt: \u201cIn my opinion, everybody's capable of almost anything with enough practice, dedication, persistence and time,\u201d he says.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; But being capable of almost anything doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll never fail. Over the years, having been a part of growing more than 100 startups, Tim has seen his share of failure, too. But it\u2019s his attitude toward these failures that, he believes, has ultimately steered him toward his biggest successes. As an entrepreneur, probably the \u201csingle greatest thing you can learn,\u201d in Tim\u2019s mind, is not to confuse learning from the past with dwelling on it.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; On this episode of The Anthony Sarandrea Show, Anthony and Tim talk about \u201cexpecting to be excited by failure,\u201d as well as what it takes to be world-class at whatever you put your mind toward. &amp;nbsp; What You\u2019ll Learn:  Why Tim doesn\u2019t believe in balance Why, if working out isn\u2019t a part of your regimen, you\u2019re missing \u201cthat last 10-20% of what you could give the world\u201d&amp;nbsp; Why you can\u2019t excel in all areas of what Time calls the \u201cBig Four\u201d at once, and how he prioritizes&amp;nbsp; And much more!  &amp;nbsp; Favorite Quote: \u201cOne of my theories is that if you haven't pushed yourself to failure, you don't know what you're really capable of. How could you? Whether it's athletics, academics, business or relationships, if you're not living on the edge at least a little bit and saying, \u2018Hey, I'm out of control and I did fail,\u2019 then how could you possibly know what you're capable of?\u201d \u2014 Tim Crown &amp;nbsp; Connect With Tim:&amp;nbsp; LinkedIn&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; How to Get Involved: Anthony Sarandrea, the founder of SiteFlood, is a philanthropist, entrepreneur, and keynote speaker known as a renowned customer and lead generator across the globe.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Be sure to follow him on LinkedIn, Instagram, and gain access to his consulting and speaking engagements via his website. &amp;nbsp; Let us know you enjoyed this episode by visiting us on  Apple Podcasts and giving us a review!
