Good evening fellow fastlaners. Can't express how much applicable knowledge I've gained from this forum from recommended books, helpful software/products, TMFL books, Gold/Notable Threads, etc.....
Anyways, here's some personal things that have helped me along the way.
1. Your main job as a business owner is Finding, Recruiting, & Retaining Star Talent. Read this in Felix Dennis' awesome book "How To Get Rich". And when I applied it in my local business, I went from losing $15,000/month to earning $20,000/month and landing huge contracts. Quickly fired the initial, lackluster employees & replaced them with the "Dream Team". It's like the New England Patriots pre & post Tom Brady. Used profit sharing business model to keep employees loyal & highly incentivized.
2. Something I believe that is highly over looked but can be life changing is purchasing a reusable glass water bottle & high quality water filter. It's really a shortcut to better health, better sleep, better focus, better energy, etc......... Having a medical background, I have seen anecdotally through biometric blood screenings the difference drinking pure water makes. Linking an article below from Harvard Medical School on fluoridated water. And fluoride is just 1 of many harmful contaminants in water.

Undoubtedly, local municipals are more concerned with economic growth than public health. Could go on all day but if you guys have any questions or need recommendations on a high quality filter, please feel free to ask.
Anyways, thanks for everything MJ DeMarco and everyone who contributes to the best business forum on planet Earth.
Always with gratitude- Billy
