Your relationships with your spouse, children, parents, friends, community, and spirit must come next. Your finances are more important than your income. • If you make $75k net profit, but spend $100,000,the solution will not be to make $100,000 • Your business will thrive only if you are calm, with healthy energy, loving relationships, and managed finances. Then, you can even have time for personal hobbies and interests

  9. Leverage • You must leverage your time so that one hour of your time can produce ten hours or 100 hours of value for your business • Imagine that your time is worth $100/hour. And, you make six touching base calls to a client for ten minutes every other month for a year and the client refers a new client(s) which is worth a $10,000 commission. You just leveraged one hour of your time to be worth 100 hours of your time. • Do you have to be the one making the call?

What Is Your Number? • There is no right or wrong answer • How much money do you need to make to maintain your life style? • 12 months from now how many deals do you have to close to be giddy about your business? • Be honest, write it down, look at it often and do the things that are your Unique Talents
