\u201cif you own a business my strong advice is from day one work hard to not be the business. What I mean by that is to not have any functional role in the business at all. To really be able to sit back and work on your business from a much higher level. And I say it for a couple of reasons: 1) I think it will be a lot more gratifying when you don\u2019t have to be involved in any particular functions unless you decide you want dip your toes in the water. 2) You will create the highest value for your business when you are not involved in it. And the third one because this is my business. There is a date on the calendar that most people look to sell their businesses. That date may be of your choosing but it may not be of your choosing. And when it\u2019s not of your choosing it\u2019s usually not under good circumstances like you\u2019ve got a partnership breakup, a divorce, you\u2019ve been diagnosed with an illness. But if you have been running your business so that it is self-managed that date won\u2019t matter because your business can continue to operate and function because it hasn\u2019t been reliant on you and it will maintain value, your people will be okay, your legacy will be okay. So, I think all entrepreneurs who own businesses should work very hard at creating a self-managing business\u201d\u2026[Listen for More]
