There are many metrics that matter in business. Many. But there are 2 that are vital to your ability to grow and scale your business. If you don't know these two numbers implicitly, you're wasting your time in business. Know them. Harness them. And leverage them to help fuel your growth.

One of the most inspirational stories in business is that of Jaime Cross and how her belief, hard work and persistence took her from survival mode to thriving with MIG Soap. This is an absolute must-listen no matter who you are or what business you're in.

There's a failure-to-success loop that we all go through. I liken it to a rollercoaster ride. We fail, work hard, start to taste some level of success, then sabotage our own results. However, we often don't do this on purpose. It happens subconsciously in the mind.

What most people don't understand is that it's part of the process. Failure is almost necessary for success. In fact, the bigger the failure, the bigger the potential for eventual success. Tune in to learn more.

Success in business truly takes nerves of steel. Not just in understanding your demographic and in your product-market fit. But more over, in your unwavering belief in your ability to succeed. Human beings are very interesting in that we can write our future as long as we have the right amount of belief and are persistent enough. However, you truly do need to have nerves of steel to blaze a pathway forward. Tune in to hear this important message.

We often overthink things, leading us to incorrectly assess most situations. Not just to do with others. But also to do with ourselves. Extricating yourself out of that prison is hard. It comes with a near-lifetime of conditioning. Yet, if you just stop overthinking things, and stop caring so much about how you look in front of others, you will experience true freedom and liberty of the mind, body and spirit.

Sometimes, when you're pushing and pushing, trying to reach your lofty goals, it's easy to feel frustrated. And it's easy to lose your peace. When that happens, we veer off track on tangents and recovering from that is incredibly difficult. When that happens, you lose sight of what's important. And you can't see the proverbial forest through the trees. That's why you need to implement the 5+5 rule. Not sure what that is? Tune in now to learn more.

There are lessons you learn along the way in life that echo throughout the annals of history. These life lessons have an enormous impact on your business. Because, as entrepreneurs, we are heavily weighed down by the series of events in our lives that have lead us to where we are today. Understand and embody these life lessons and you will truly take things to the next level.

The biggest mistake that we often make is that we fail to pay ourselves first. When you don't pay yourself, it's easy to spend your money on conveniences and luxuries. Rather, you have to setup the right habits and systems for not only automating your savings, but also your investing. It's not about sitting on a pile of cash. It's about moment-of-opportunity cash. Not sure what I mean? Tune in to learn more.

Want to make more money? Sell more products or services? Eventually have more freedom or to automate your income? Great. All you need to do is to build pressure up in the marketplace. When you can build up substantial pressure in the marketplace, you can sell just about anything. What do I mean? Tune in to learn more.

Are you a solopreneur? Or are you a business owner? What's the difference? Plenty. Most of the time, we start a business to gain more freedom, get more time and to earn more money. The reality is that it's often the furthest thing from the truth. We spend much more time and make far less money. But it doesn't have to always be that way. Systems and processes are vital in helping you make the leap from a solopreneur to a business owner. Tune in to hear more.
