I'm currently reading The E-Myth by Micheal Gerber and it hit me. I run 7 figure businesses and I thought I had it 'made'. But there's something in that book which is an eye opener for me. Michael says, "If your business cannot run without you then you do not own a business. You own a job".
If you think about it - he's right. Your life isn't your business. Your business creates your dream life. I've been looking at this the wrong way for a long time because my businesses cannot exist without me.
The book also talks about The Franchise Model and how every business should be run like a franchise i.e. anyone can take the process manual and replicate your business.
I'm going back to the drawing board and changing how I do things now. I need better processes that can operate without me. It's tough but it's necessary.
