as before, i will explain the critical area and you are to score between 0 and 10 how you are on each of the critical areas. the scoring guide is below:<\/p>\n

\"scoring<\/a><\/p>\n

on each trait on my “spider wheel” put a mark where you fit. in the middle is 0 and the outer point is 10.<\/p>\n

don\u2019t learn ‘stuff’<\/h3>\n

in the year 2000 i relocated my family from sydney to brisbane. when i met the furniture removalist i asked him if he had a lawnmower. the answer was no. i said “you do now” and i gave him mine. i have never mown a lawn since. nor do i intend to. i choose to do tasks i like doing and that i am good at. if i like doing a task, i learn how to use the tool to do the task. if you look at office equipment there are many tools that make life easier that i don\u2019t want to learn how to use.<\/p>\n

take the scanner. it\u2019s a useful tool but i\u2019m not going to learn how to use it. if i do i may have to use it. or what about that thing with sharp teeth called the binding machine? that thing can hurt you. there are trained professionals who know how to use the binding machine. i don\u2019t want to be one of them.<\/p>\n

i like to get focused on the three highest-dollar productive activities that i can do in my business life. i am brutal with my time on this and i don\u2019t do what is not a “top three” activity or i delegate it to someone else.<\/p>\n

in the year 2005 i started my accountants coaching business from home. within a couple of weeks of my new startup i wrote in permanent ink on my whiteboard the following:<\/p>\n

i will only do three things in this business:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. marketing<\/li>\n
  2. selling<\/li>\n
  3. delivery<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    i will only not work for anything less than $750 per hour.<\/p>\n

    remember this was 2005. my self-esteem was not as high as it now and that\u2019s why i priced my time at $750 per hour. pretty quickly i took that to $1,000 then $2,000 then $3,000, then i moved to value-based fees and it didn\u2019t matter anymore.<\/p>\n

    these days my top three have changed. my business has grown and i have a team of people around me who are professionals in what they do and i am a professional in three things only.<\/p>\n
