Are you in the business of transactions or transformations? It's crucial to understand the difference between the two — and where your business stands — so you don't fall into the chasm in between.

Many people think of entrepreneurs as rule breakers. But successful entrepreneurs are also profound rule makers, creating a game of their own design.

Dan Sullivan asked himself a game-changing question over 25 years ago and immediately decided to give up his office. He shares the question and his No-Office Solutionâ„¢ that immediately upped his focus, productivity, and creativity.

Dan Sullivan sees a clear line separating elite entrepreneurs from those who peak at a certain level of success. He explains why the latter are as successful as they need to be, while elite entrepreneurs are as successful as they want to be.

There's a deep-rooted notion among entrepreneurs that to be a great leader, you have to be a great manager. Dan Sullivan says the most successful businesses are ones in which the entrepreneur is an extraordinary leader who delegates.

There's a distinction that can be made between entrepreneurs and very successful entrepreneurs. It begins with the way they think. Really great entrepreneurs, the true innovators, are excited, not by problem-solving, but by creating new capabilities.

Dan Sullivan has observed that entrepreneurs can experience breakthrough results by going through a four-step thinking, deciding, and action process. Repeat this process to achieve more breakthroughs throughout your entire entrepreneurial career.

Anyone who wants to train their mind for extraordinary success can do so. What it takes is a mindset that seeks out the "multipliers" in every situation to make certain that growth is not just incremental, but exponential. We call this having a "Multiplier Mindset," a state of always being alert, curious, responsive, and resourceful in your business and your personal life. Having this mindset greatly increases your ability to take existing resources and opportunities and transform them into bigger and better future breakthroughs.
