3 Things We Learned From Javier Hinojo

\\xa0

Be persistent

Never give up or allow yourself to stop trying. You have to keep pushing through all the challenges thrown your way. Giving up shouldn\\u2019t be an option. Remember, the harder you work, the luckier you\\u2019ll get.

\\xa0

Always be ready to fire yourself

Leveraging other people\\u2019s time and resources is vital if you want to grow your business. Aim to work as little as possible by setting up systems and teams that don\\u2019t take up too much of your time.

\\xa0

Look for the downside

We\\u2019re constantly reminded to stay positive and look at the bright side, but there are times to consider the opposite. Look for all the things that could go wrong and protect yourself accordingly. Assume that things could go sideways and keep 10% of all your deals saved.

While you need to work consistently and focus on the process, remember that you\\u2019re in pursuit of freedom. You need to be able to step out of what you\\u2019ve built at some point, without your business falling apart. Be ready to fire yourself and have a backup plan in the event that deals don\\u2019t work out. Keep your processes and approaches simple.
