Ok, so today I wanted to go over something that will fundamentally change your business. And I'm not being dramatic. I'm writing this because as I get older, I have the odd moment where it is becoming harder to work at the same level I was able to at 23. Responsibilities start shifting into others that I bring into my life. That prevents me from being able to hit those 15 hour work days every weekday and every weekend. (Yes I used to do that regularly) And honestly, my mature self is prioritizing other things that I know are going to lead to longevity. Today an unexpected event happened. And I was able to manage the whole situation calmly and not feel like I was missing out on my business. Because I have some excellent systems and people in those systems in place. These systems saved me today. And it hit me. I got this huge surge of wow, I need to build more systems in my business so that no matter what happens tomorrow, I will be able to produce reliable outputs without so much of my own energy going into the inputs. So this is a PSA - If your company relies entirely on your personal effort to function, you don't have a business. You have a high-stress job that you created for yourself. Without documented, repeatable processes, you are setting yourself up for burnout. And eventually, failure. The core principle is simple. A system is the business. Anything less is just hoping things don't fall apart. Smart operators understand that the only way to escape this trap is to build systems. In fact, that's what the word itself means to us: SYSTEMS: Save Yourself Time, Energy, Money, and Stress. This guide goes over straightforward, actionable plan to build this into your business.
