It is never too late to dream a new dream. It does not matter how many times you fail; what is meant for you will be yours. Jim Becker, the founder of a multi-million business empire, motivates us to be on the lookout for our true calling.
At the age of 27, Jim realized that the company he worked for barred him from tapping into his true potential. This sudden realization was soon followed by inspiration to do something momentous that led to the establishment of “Becker Logistics.” Since then, the company has come a long way. It has accomplished significant milestones and plans to reach over a billion dollars in top line revenue by 2030.
There are many reasons for Becker’s unparalleled success in logistics. Apart from being highly determined, Jim believes in keeping things simple. His maxim is to break things down to their simplest form. He recommends people to be organized and suggests one keeps a calendar that is to be updated depending on what is high on your priority list. In addition, Jim recommends delegating tasks to employees as per their skill set rather than being snowed under a list of tasks you wish to do all by yourself.
Becker swears by three ingredients: mindfulness, integrity, and honesty. Unlike what most people in business advocate, Jim states that one must not violate contracts, both written and unwritten. He believes if you cannot meet the terms of an agreement, either renegotiate it or inform the other party of the difficulty. “Honoring contracts is the life of that relationship,” believes Becker.
For those wondering what else Jim does, here’s a little insight about his life outside of work. Jim Becker is a husband, a father of two girls, and a devout Christian. He is a humanitarian who has undertaken the duty of helping wipe out homelessness. In his free time, Jim follows up on his hobbies, including: dancing, choreography, biking, running, swimming, and golfing.
