Episode 48: Kris Ward - Winning The Hour So You Can Win The Day

Gold Nuggets in this Episode: Today is an almost perfect day for Juliet. Steve wants the credit, but only for the good days... "I believe that your business should support your life, not consume it." "More often than not, you're doing a lot of repetitive admin work." "Start with a virtual assistant, but you want to be purposeful and keep that lane really small, and have it grow." "Day 1, if you're thinking of being an entrepreneur, start that team." "You didn't start a business to run a business." "Your calendar is like your time bank account. If you don't do things effectively with the hour, you're going to lose the day." "Your primary focus right now has been delivering the services and keeping the business, revenue, and profits, but there's a second thing that most people neglect and don't understand, and that's the efficiency of growing the business and compressing the admin aspect of it so the creation continues to grow." "Do anything you can to have a good laugh." "You had jobs you didn't like doing. You left them for a reason. So, this is supposed to be fun." "Learning is only learning when you implement it. Slow down to speed up. Implement. Build your win team so you can get to what is next." "Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever done before." - Bonnie Blair   Our guest is Founder of Win the Hour, Win the Day, Kris Ward.
