Takeaways – How not to do deals & how to run your business



* Focus on things that you can do and what matters most. Some things are beyond control. Value time more than you value money. Know your purpose. * It’s not always about making money but also how you help others improve their lives.* Joining a mastermind could bring you more knowledge in the industry and helps you with the industry benchmarks.* You can have as many businesses as you want as long as you have the right integrator in place and you’re no longer a resource. The resource is time, money, people, and energy.* The Five of Stage of Business. Start-up, Perseverance, Viability, Expansion, and Succession.* Document processes and procedures first before starting to hire people.* Be a better leader. Work hard and work smart.* The Side Pocket of a Business is  Supply, Input, Process, Output, and Customer.* Process and procedures may vary and change depending on the situation.* Have a vision, both long and short term. Know your metrics and numbers daily and act on them accordingly. Build a communication tool. Hire the right people and put them on the right seat.* Culture comes from core values, purpose, and goals.* Focus and keep little things important and always be grateful.* Treat business like it’s a business and stop acting like it’s a hobby.
