That’s it. That’s your task. Create value. Then create more. And then never stop. Everything else is secondary, and everything else must follow behind.
Avoid the distractions. So many entrepreneurs get bogged down with tasks that seem critically important at the time but are not related to the creation of value. For example, how much time do you spend responding to other people’s e-mail requests? How much of your life is invested in balancing the books, in managing outsourced subcontractors, or in putting out micro fires all around you? Yes, those things seem important but look at the list again. There is nothing there that creates value.
