James Shramko has the concept of Infinity Projects in his book "Work Less, Make More".
Your Infinity Project is your side-project that will run and run and run, forever more.
This is the project you work on when you're taking a break from your main business.
It's ideal if you have a team, because you just tell them to work on the Infinity Project when they've got some free time. This means you don't pay them to sit around.
I guess it could be something as boring as cleaning the cars in the showroom, but ideally it's some kind of exciting change from the day-to-day - some kind of "skunkworks" that you and your team will benefit from as you pour more and more time and energy into. (Not just from growing it as an asset, but from all the new skills and experiences everyone acquires and can apply back to your main business.)
I've an idea what my Infinity Project is. Something I already do every . single . day. Something I can't NOT do, and have already been doing consistently for years. The best bit is that it's not unrelated to my main business.
But it's not about me...
