Are You Working IN the Business or ON the Business?

🚀 Are You Working IN the Business or ON the Business?

As entrepreneurs and leaders, we often get caught up in the day-to-day grind. But to truly grow and scale, we need to make a clear distinction:

👉 Working IN the business means:

• Handling daily operations.

• Managing tasks that keep the business running.

• Being the go-to person for solving immediate problems.

Examples:
💼 Answering customer emails.
📊 Approving invoices.
🛠 Fixing operational bottlenecks.

While essential, this keeps you focused inside the weeds of the business.

👉 Working ON the business means:

• Creating strategies for growth and sustainability.

• Focusing on vision, innovation, and long-term goals.

• Building systems that can operate without constant oversight.

Examples:
🌟 Defining a 5-year vision.
📈 Launching a new product or market expansion.
🔧 Streamlining processes with automation or delegation.

The biggest growth happens when you can step back, empower your team, and prioritize working on the business. 💡
