Over the last decade, I’ve learned that increasing profits is absolutely NOT MAGIC! It usually seems like magic and quite effortless to others looking from the outside, but it is really far from it. People do not see the late nights, early mornings, the many mistakes, and tons of sacrifices made. Brad Sugars and Monte Wyatt reiterate that in their book Pulling Profits Out of a Hat.
A few quotes I absolutely love:
“Magic isn’t real; it is really hard work.”
“What often looks like an overnight success rarely ever is.”
The book, having 374 pages, is quite an easy read having large print and simple understandable principles.
According to Sugars and Wyatt, there are five disciplines to master to ensure that any business can get more profits and achieve sustained business success. This combination leads to exponential growth.
The 5 Disciplines discussed are:
- Strategy
- Where you want to go (your goals) and
- The roadmap that gets you there (your plan)
- Business Development
- Focusing on predictability of people instead of profit
- People
- Stability of the people who work for your business as business reflect their people.
- Execution
- The important of consinency
- Mission
- Having a purpose
I get asked nearly daily how I turned my passion into a career and started making a sustainable income by doing the things I love. Just to let you know , it was a lot of hard work but if you’re willing to put in the work, be patient, extra diligent, and take a proactive approach, you can make your dream a reality.
