Running a Business Is a Constant Evaluation—You Never “Have It Figured Out”
If you think running a business means setting things up and then just repeating the same thing every day,
Get out now.
Because real business is a constant evaluation.
• You never just “have it figured out.”
• You never just “settle in” and stop improving.
• You never just “run on autopilot” without checking for inefficiencies.
When you are truly running a business, you are constantly evaluating everything.
And I don’t just mean the big things—I mean everything.
• Every single process.
• Every single detail.
• Even the way you sneeze, if necessary.
If it can be more efficient, it must be optimized.
You Are Wired to Make Mistakes—So There Is Always Room for Improvement
No one is perfect because we have free will—and free will means mistakes.
So don’t even try to act like you’ve got it all figured out.
Forget it.
Your job is to keep improving.
Because in the world of business, if you are not moving forward, you are stagnant.
And if you are stagnant?
You are already dead.
It’s not a matter of if—it’s a matter of when.
Because someone else will come,
They will see your inefficiencies,
They will fix them,
And customers will turn to them instead of you.
Business Is Just the Art of Removing Inefficiencies
That’s all it is.
Your entire business exists to remove inefficiencies in people’s lives.
• The better you are at eliminating inefficiencies, the better your business will be.
• The more inefficiencies you have, the faster your business collapses.
It is that simple.
And it’s not just about you.
Every inefficiency hurts more than just your business.
• It affects your employees.
• It affects their families.
• It affects the community.
• It creates a negative ripple effect that spirals downward.
So every single day you step into your business, your mission is simple:
Find inefficiencies. Fix them. Remove the nonsense.
If You Can’t Do It, Bring in Someone Who Can
If you’re not good at spotting inefficiencies, then bring in a consultant who is.
• Find the flaws.
• Find the solutions.
• Implement changes immediately.
And most importantly—hire people who are actually aligned with the roles they are in.
But we’re going to talk about that next—how to hire properly so you’re not dragging dead weight into your business.
For now, just remember this:
Your entire business is about removing inefficiencies.
So if you think business is just sitting at your desk, drinking coffee, admiring the “CEO” title on your name tag—
Get real.
