Lean how to ‘play the long game and embrace a continued evolution in search of business perfection. KEY TAKEAWAYS It takes time to develop your business, there’s no quick fix. You will face challenges and changes that you will need to overcome. Business is changing at a much faster rate, the only way to keep up is to be continually learning and play the long game. You have to sacrifice in order to Master your Art. If you apply the same principles from your martial art in your business you will succeed. You have to train, each and every day on your business, the more you train, the more you repeat, the better you’ll get. Invest time in your business and sacrifice. Invest in your education and give yourself the permission to learn. The more you learn, the faster you will succeed because education is king. Knowledge is not power, applied knowledge is power. You need to train yourself to apply your knowledge in all areas of your business and become a master at everything that you do.
