Subject: 5 Signs You’re Working for Yourself, Not Building a Business | Quiz Inside 🔥
The same million dollars can be earned in two very different ways.
The first way — you leverage other people’s hands and your own brain. That’s what we call building a business.
The second way — it’s achieved through an enormous number of working hours, stress, and chaotic action. That’s essentially a high-paying job for yourself.
Here are 5 simple signs that you’re taking the second route:
🔹 Your team requires constant supervision. Your phone never shuts off — not even on weekends, and work is always on your mind.
🔹 All processes depend entirely on you. You simply can’t take a day off or sick leave without the whole operation coming to a halt.
🔹 Time for yourself, your family, or your kids is virtually non-existent — and weekends get canceled on Friday evenings when yet another crisis erupts.
🔹 You feel like you’re standing on shaky ground. Tomorrow’s success hinges on a million factors beyond your control.
🔹 You end up sacrificing your personal goals and dreams, constantly thinking, “I can’t — it’s a crisis. I’m in fire-fighting mode. Later.”
There are two takeaways. First: if even one of these points describes you, you’ve failed the test. Second: it’s fixable.
It’s all about restoring those key management elements that empower leaders to:
— Take a break without the fear of coming back to a full-blown crisis
— Earn with strategic thinking rather than by micromanaging tasks that should be handled by the team
— Remain confident about the future of the business even in a crisis
— Finally, stop postponing their personal life
All of these points come down to one thing — systematization.
Maxim Batyrev and Anna Starodubtseva will explain, in an online masterclass, how to build a system in your company, which tools can be implemented in just one day to improve your situation, and what exactly you might be missing.
