Why "Hustling" Is A Lie (2min quick read)
Too many business owners out there trying to "outhustle" everyone else.
But let me hit you with some painful truth: It's not all about HUSTLING. It's much more about being SMART about things and SYSTEMIZING everything you do.
So here's 3 things to stay away from if you ever want your business to do well:
MISTAKE 1: trying to figure things out on your own (waste of time)
You are not the first one trying to make it work. All your problems have literally already been fixed by someone else. Stop trying to be "self-made" (ego problem), instead be smart about things and follow a proven path.
MISTAKE 2: measuring your productivity in hours, not in tasks fulfilled
Nobody cares how many hours you work. Your clients don't care how many hours you've put in. You're getting paid by the end results you deliver. So start focussing on that.
Which brings me to the last point:
MISTAKE 3: Ignoring patterns
Everything you do can be broken down in patterns. Any pattern can be systemized. Every system can be delegated. Whether you are still only a solopreneur or you're already making your first hires. Get away from "only I can do this" and start thinking "where's the system underlying this task, how can I have someone else do this for me?".
Stop treating your business like a toy business, it's time to get serious. Nobody cares how much of a hustler you are. Make things work in a smart way. That's the difference between having a real businesses and having a hobby.

3 年Yes, that makes sense. I know the perfect idea is not going to come my way and I shouldn't be waiting for it to show up. But how do we find an idea or ideas that scale and are repeatable?

3 年The same rules apply to established companies and their marketing. Companies measure the hours spent on creating content or writing blog posts but those actions aren't bringing them any results. Efficient processes ftw!

3 年I really love the first point. I mean you even learn for example Maths in school by somebody, why would you all of a sudden try to figure something out by yourself.
