The Same 24 Hours In the Day?
"We all have the same 24 hours in the day," they say. But do we? The CEO spends their time setting the strategic direction of corporate divisions containing thousands of people, while the single mother spends her time chasing kids, working for wages, and doing laundry. No judgment on the single mother. In fact, she works much harder than the CEO, but she is not able to have as much impact. Both have 24 hours in a day, but some have more leverage on their time than others. Why are some people able to live the Four Hour Workweek, making 7-figures in four hours a week, while others work 15 hours a day and barely scrape by? The answer is leverage. It's not about how much time you have. It's about how you use it. The CEO and the single mom both have the same 24 hours in the day, but the single mom deploys 24 hours of work and rest, while the CEO deploys 24,000 hours of work at their command. If you'd like to learn how to have more leverage in your business, might I suggest you join me and Brandi Cox tomorrow morning at 11 AM Eastern for the No Touch Tech Info Session, where you will learn how to effectively and affordably delegate your tech. 🤷‍♂️ You May Not Have 1,000 Employees, But... You may not be the CEO with a team of Vice Presidents to execute your vision, but you can be the CEO of your company. Many people thinks CEOs are overpaid because they don't seem to do any real work. They don't assemble widgets on the assembly line. They don't create reports. They don't design marketing campaigns. They don't do anything! What they do is they direct all the people who do the things, and if you don't think good direction is important, try driving through an intersection when the power is out and the traffic light isn't working. 😅 You're Not a CEO If You Do It All Yourself How do you get big company CEO leverage without big company CEO budgets? You must delegate strategically. Find the areas of your business where you are the weakest, the areas where you spend the most time (and frustration) to get the result, and have someone else do it for you.

Michael, I commend you on the comparison of someone who only has themself to work the 24 hours, versus the CEO who can leverage the 24 hours of thousands of other people.
Bob Burg’s 10 Feel-Good Questions
Great questions from Bob to encourage people to talk about themselves. Will you spot the one that's not actually a question? - “How did you get your start in the [widget] business?” - “What do you enjoy most about your profession?” - “What separates you and your company from the competition?” - “What advice would you give someone just starting in the [widget] business?” - “What one thing would you do with your business if you knew you could not fail?” - “What significant changes have you seen take place in your profession through the years?” - “What do you see as the coming trends in your industry?” - “Describe the strangest or funniest incident you’ve experienced in your business?” - “What ways have you found to be the most effective for promoting your business?” - “What one sentence would you like people to use in describing the way you do business?”

Thank you Mike. What does a "widget" look like?😁
How not to network with me
I had someone introduced to me, so I sent her my booking link. My link has 7 questions on it which exist for a very important reason. We're meeting for 30 minutes, and that's not a lot of time. We don't have time for "So, what do you do?" We need to get into it. So the questions ask the basics (What do you do? What do you need? How can I help you?) If someone skips the questions, it tells me two things... 1) It'll be an awkward meeting because we're starting from a blank slate. 2) They don't respect my process, and they *may* be hard to work with (or may not) No answers? I email them and ask them to fill out the form. Still no answers? Cancel. Some people may think that the questions are just nice to have or don't apply to them. But let me tell you, after about 3,000 one to ones, I never want to walk in cold to a networking call again. What do you do to ensure your networking calls are effective and not awkward?

I realized I need to add more questions to my calendar program than, "What do you want to talk about?"
At Home DIY COVID Test (Joke)
Covid is Back…Stay Safe and TEST! HOME COVID TEST 1. Pour a large glass of red wine, try to smell it. 2. If you can smell the wine then drink it & see if you can taste it. 3. If you can taste & smell it confirms you don’t have Covid. Last night I did the test 19 times, & all were negative, thank God. Tonight I am going to do the test again, because this morning I woke with a headache & feel like I am coming down with something. I am so nervous!

Michael, that sounds like a great test. But would it work with Dr. Pepper? I can't stand the taste of wine.
No. Just No. Don't Do This.
Someone came in and just started awkwardly pitching in the comments. That's an instant ban. No question. No appeal. Just gone. Don't do that. If anyone is creeping in your DMs, please let me know immediately so I can address it.
