Takeaways:
Prioritize your day at the beginning and focus on the money-making activities first in order to set yourself up for success.
Trust the process and do the things that nobody sees so that down the road you have a big level of success.
Success is not an overnight thing you can attain. You have to trust the process and do the less exciting tasks in order to reach this success.
Leadership is not about being everyone’s savior or doing everything for everyone. You must learn to delegate and empower them in order to create the time you need to get the important tasks done.
Have to do the money-making activities more often than not. Give yourself the grace and have a plan.
Anything worth doing is going to be hard but if you trust the process and stay in the grind and stay focused you will succeed.
