Tyson Rhame makes an easy to understand correlation to business and his military experience in order to illustrate his drive to succeed in both areas, but more importantly to inspire others by his own personal journey. Ty Rhame states on his blog,

“Being successful at anything is rarely easy in any competitive environment. A good work ethic is one quality that is missing in many people because they have never truly had to work hard. Believe me when I say that the military taught me what hard work is. I’m not just talking about the physical part of it, I’m also talking about the mental fortitude it takes to persevere when everything seems to be going wrong, nothing is working, you are mentally and emotionally exhausted, and the work seems never ending.”

Ty Rhame stresses the fact that, whether it is related to military battle or training for a job or business, continuously working hard is required in order to be consistently successful.
