Your Disorganisation is a Habit

The word “addiction” brings up an awful lot of nasty images: we tend to associate it with vices like drugs, alcohol, or gambling. But it can be a lot more benign than that.

Trying to Have it All Leaves You With Nothing

The biggest threat to any business is the owner of that business. As entrepreneurs, we’ve already decided to tackle one of the most challenging things anyone could possibly do: build a business.

POINT OF VONCURSION

Get a Daily Success Metric

Get a Daily Success Metric

Everyone (me included) wants to be able to know they did a good job. How do you get there? How can you know for certain, when you lay your head down to sleep at night, that you had a “successful” day? The answer to me is in measurement. You need to find something you can […]

Skip The Plan

Skip The Plan
