Ryan Stewman channels Mike Tyson’s famous quote, “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face,” and explains how it relates to entrepreneurship. He shares that no matter how carefully we plan, unexpected challenges will always come our way—whether it’s regulations, economic downturns, or other unforeseen obstacles. The real mark of an entrepreneur isn’t having the perfect plan, but the ability to take a hit, adjust, and keep moving forward.

Ryan likens it to a heist movie where, despite a hiccup like a teller pressing the alarm, the crew adjusts and follows through with the rest of the plan. He reminds us that getting “punched in the face” is inevitable, but the key to success is pushing through the setbacks, adapting to the situation, and getting back on track as quickly as possible.

When life throws you a curveball, take the hit, adjust, and get back to the plan.
