009: Art Williams – I’m Not Telling You

“I’m not telling you it’s going to be easy – I’m telling you it’s going to be worth it.” – Art Williams

This was drawn by Viser1000. Check out his Facebook page here.

The quote is by Art Williams, a retired billionaire in the insurance business. Before you say “slimy insurance agent”, let me tell you about Art Williams’ history. He wasn’t just an insurance agent, he founded an insurance business. The success of his insurance business was due in part to good HR practices and motivating the staff. A lot of his wealth also came from his investments outside his business. Lastly, his insurance business and he himself were an advocate of Term Insurance. If you aren’t well schooled in insurance, then let me tell you that anyone who tells you “buy Term Insurance, and invest the rest” is your friend. I’m not going to go into the specifics of this, but do look it up and decide for yourself with this article from Forbes.

As for the story in this comic, I wanted it to be short and simple. I think everyone can grasp it. Yet I want to remind everyone, success really still isn’t as easy as three comic panels of hard work. There will be lot of times in between these bouts of hard work where feelings of giving up set in. Those times are the hidden enemy. They are another reason as to why success isn’t easy. You have to get your head in the game and stay in the game.
