The Entrepreneur Work Ethic
Everyone knows that entrepreneurs only work half time and it’s up to them to choose which of the 12 hours in the day to work. The real challenge is having the ability to get everything done without being stressed. The challenge is learning how to create systems and master time management. Look around until you find an entrepreneur who is successful: the have more than enough time, clients and money. You’ll discover that they have mastered time management and have systems in place that keep them on track.What most entrepreneurs don’t realize is that being busy is not necessarily being productive. Have you ever ended up a week with more time than things to do? If you do, you’ll probably end up re-inventing yourself the next week. The point is, your business will always demand more of you than you bargained for, so don’t let it overwhelm you. You are in control and unless you’re having fun, change what you do and how you do it.
