If you’d like more free time in your business, here’s some tips…

1. Automate as much of your business as possible, put it into operations manuals, and delegate the work out to the right people… replace yourself in as many ways as possible
2. Don’t take on any projects that won’t enhance your lifestyle – think Freedom Business
3. Hire a top notch personal assistant if you can afford to… they can make a WORLD of difference… just make sure it’s the right person, cuz the wrong person can be a pain in the ass
4. Read – The Emyth by Michel Gerber and The Four Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris – do what those books say to do
5. Only focus on the big levers in moving your business forward, get other people to do everything else
6. Make your primary focus the marketing of your business, the strategies to get from point A to point B and networking
7. Get good at saying “No” to people… and don’t feel guilty about it, it’s your time… use it wisely
