In this episode of The Real Connor Miller Show, Connor talks about the untimely passing of his beloved dog, Zero and the lessons he learned from it. Connor shares how he met Zero while he was still recovering from heroin addiction, and how the unconditional love he felt from his dog helped him survive those dark times. Connor talks how Zero’s death pushed him to rethink his priorities, but reminds us all that we can do the same without waiting for a tragedy to happen. HIGHLIGHTS There is purpose in pain A dog's love is unconditional love Live your life everyday like it's going to be the last Rethink your priorities as soon as you can QUOTES Connor: "You can rethink your priorities without having something happen that's detrimental to your life. You don't have to wait till something explodes to rethink what you're doing. You don't have to wait till something drastic happens to reconsider your priorities." Connor: "Building a business is hard. Being an entrepreneur and balancing a family life is even harder. And one of the things that I've noticed that's suffered over the last year and growth of the company has been my life at home. So ever since that happened, that was the first week that I've ever literally just taken a week off from work and not done anything and just spent all the time with my wife and my son. And it was amazing. And it really started to make me reconsider my priorities and be more intentional about leaving the office at 5pm when I say I'm gonna leave."
