1. Divorces and separations don’t have to be toxic
When the words divorce and separation come into mind, the expectations are vile and total hatred. Such are always expected to bear the hatred and ugly legal battles with the parties involved looking to crash each other to their last bits. However, this is understandable as many of divorces and separations have never gone through quietly and peacefully. The rumbles of the thunders of these events are quite loud. In some prominent cases of divorces in the last decade, things turned ugly as revealed on our site. In the divorce case between golf star Tiger Woods and Ellen Nordegren, the later walked away with a whopping $100million of Tiger’s money for the humiliation she suffered. Tiger also lost a tooth in one of their fights and got his car battered with a golf club. It is just a tip of the massive iceberg; they have been more toxic separations and divorces, some of which death has been the ultimate result. Nevertheless, Nina Klemm and Michael LeSure have come to change the narrative with enough evidence that any force of separation does not need to be ugly. Furthermore, they have proved that even after separation, you will still need each other at one point. Bad blood does not have to be the highlight of divorces and separations.
2. Do not let your past dictate the present
Living in the past has always been cancer that kills development, both social and economic. Many people are entangled in the events of the past, and this prevents them from making any progress. In light of the “Flipping Exes” show, this project would have been an illusion if Nina and Michael did not move on from their separation. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune, the pair had dated for over one year before deciding to go their separate ways four years ago. Nevertheless, that did not stop them from joining forces and starting a successful business together later on. Consequently, they are reaping good fruits form their venture. By not allowing their undesirable past to come in the way of their business, the pair has made a massive step in their lives. It is imperative not to let bad past events to prevent you from exploring opportunities that may come off good in our lives. Bury the hatchet, move on, and explore new opportunities.
3. Do not hold grudges
Harboring grudges can only be likened to taking poison and expecting your rival to die. It is the ultimate way of self-destruction and an enemy of personal progress. Many people let opportunities pass on account of bad blood with other individuals who might be involved in the same venture. This consequently denies them a shot at what might have been their best opportunities ever. For whatever reasons Michael and Nina separated, they did not carry with them grudges. This perspective in life came in handy when they needed each other for the real estate business venture.
4. Two heads are better than one
Going solo in business is quite an exciting quest that might turn out just fine; your business may stand firm and earn good profit. However, having a team or a partner is even better in consideration of bringing ideas and adding a taste of diversity to your venture. Benefits will be shared yes, but in the event of losses, you can square it between your team or your partner. This way, the blows of a loss may not be so hard. Furthermore, with a team or a partner, you can share ideas or innovations in addition to having a variety of skills on the table. Broadway World reveals that the pair brings to the table a range of skills in the “Flipping Exes” show. Nina flaunts a vast experience in real estate, having served professional athletes and CEOs while Michael is the financier and the construction and operations manager. His numbers savviness also comes in handy in house valuation. Nina also oversees customer service and is charged with the search for such clients. The pair also owns a YouTube channel where they advertise their services.
5. Have personal boundaries in your ventures
A personal boundary is the respect indicator in any investment; it is what spells to what extent you can interact with fellow workers and partners. Lack of or disrespect of personal boundaries is one of the reasons to blame for damaged relationships between workers in many organizations. No matter how comfortable you are with fellow workers, some boundaries should not be crossed. Having been involved romantically with Nina in the past, Michael claims he had to set some boundaries for himself for their business relationship to work. He understood that failure to adhere to the limitations of these boundaries, their business relationship just like their romantic one, would fail miserably. As such, before engaging in any venture, set some personal boundaries for yourself.as revealed on our site
