How often have you sat down and looked at your P&L report? Have you looked at your numbers and calculated how much you've earned in a year? As business owners, we need to do this. It allows us to see how our business will develop in the future. Moreover, as business owners, we often forget to relax our minds and take a deep breath once in a while... But, we are human too, and we need to take a break from the bustle of busy cities and the hustle of busy lives. You will learn more about how I accomplish this during my spare time on today's episode.

 

"I'm watching goals come true in my life. I'm just trying out all these weird patterns and graphs and charts just flowing, man—so much stuff. And the really interesting thing is all the answers that you want for your life and everything. They're all right in front of you."

- Keith Kalfas

 

Why do you have to listen to today's episode?

 

0:22 - Each Sunday, I sit down and work on my paperwork. I turn off my phone, do not take calls or check social media, no distractions. Just me time.

3:01 -It is important to take time off to spend it with our loved ones, our friends, and our families. We are human too. I know that hustling for the bills is necessary, but also, it is important to spend time with ourselves.

5:24 - All decisions are choices. It is better to make those choices for yourself. Only you can change the course of your life. It is your choice, not someone else's.

6:45 - Finally, by taking a good look at your expenses for the year or even a quarter, you can calculate and assess how much you can add to your monthly earnings. Making a little bit extra will go a long way toward helping you financially. I know this isn't easy. In fact, it took me years to reach where I am now. Nonetheless, I think it can help you reflect on yourself and evaluate your choices.

 

Key Takeaways

"You just have to divorce yourself from the chaos. Imagine you're inside of it like there's a river, and you're in this river, and it's a rushing river with currents, and you're like swimming and fighting and hunting if you could divorce yourself from all that and get on the river bank. And now you're just observing the river. So once in a while, or a month or more often, you can do that. And then you can choose when you get to the river. And then when you get on the river banks, and you plan that, right, I think that's the difference that makes the difference. So you're not just going wherever the river takes you."

 

"In the world of money. I don't know what it's like to be a multi-millionaire or a billionaire. But all I know is that there are people on the line who just barely make ends meet. If you just figure out how to dial in your business. So you can make just a little bit more money, maybe 10-20-30, more thousand could be 50,000, right? Just the smallest little shifts and pivots can give you a lot more advantages that can literally change your whole life."
