Instead, start with the simple understanding and assumption that most people will be lazy, more mentally than physically. This means that you should start assuming that they will do the job wrong. This is not negativity, it’s realism. Secondly, build a training system that ensures that, from day one, they have all of the education that they need at their fingertips. Then, systematically and regularly quiz them, to make sure that they fully, 100% know what they are doing. This is one of the most important aspects of building a company, and I wish someone had told me to do it a long time ago. Entrepreneurs and business-owners, listen to this episode carefully and take notes! If you take it seriously and implement it, it will save you time and a lot of pain on your journey to success in business. “Build a training system that really gets your employees ready for success” -Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Points to Keep In Mind Parkinson's Law states that work will expand to fill the space that it is given An increase in productivity in each individual in America or any country would single-handedly fix its economy Most people are mentally lazy without realizing it Mental laziness is the most common kind: People just choose not to think very hard Assume that people will be mentally lazy, and that employees will leach off you Always assume that people will do the job wrong.
