If you don’t have an effective business system, you are the system. Instead of having a business, you have a glorified job. You will never escape the technical trenches of your business. You will
always be “busy being
busy.” |

Your business should not depend upon your presence, personality, problem solving or perspiration for its daily survival. If so, your business does not work – you do! You’ll always remain a prisoner
to your business. |

Enjoy greater freedom, flexibility, fortune and fulfillment. The answer is not to shift into higher gear. It’s to shift mindsets. Go from a technical to a strategic mindset – focus your time and talent on
high-priority, high-return
activities. |

If everything in your business flows through you and is dependent upon you, then you are restricting the growth and profits of your company. And, let’s not forget the harm you’re doing to the
growth and development of
your people. |

Far too many small business owners are
by default small leaders. Instead of
leadership, they excel at doer-ship.
Instead of thinking and acting like
owners, most react and behave
like employees. Which one
are you?
