Why “being your own boss” feels like so much work

So you finally became your own boss…

Now you’ve got more freedom, more money and a natural ability to lead your team…right?

What’s that, you don’t?

Damn — it’s almost like you were lied to about what happens when you start your own business…

See, most people are wearing rose-colored glasses when they look at other entrepreneurs.

In reality, it's not as easy as it looks (most of the time…more on that later).

They think:

I’ll control my time! But most bosses are just trading time for dollars. Working from your laptop in your beachside hotel room is not freedom. You’re still working all the time and not living life.

I’ll Make More Money! Maybe…many bosses are working longer hours and making less than when they left their day jobs. They’ve simply become high-paid employees of their own businesses.

I’ll be a natural-born leader! Incorrect. Leadership is a learned skill. Making decisions and managing personalities can be very stressful. 

Ok, enough with the Debby-Downer crap…because while the above is all true…there is a way to be your own boss and have everything you dreamed of and more. 

Remember when I said it’s not as easy as it looks most of the time…

There is a very small percentage of entrepreneurs who are living the dream as their own bosses…

And I’m one of them.

I couldn’t have said that a few years ago — but after discovering how to craft no-brainer, automated selling systems that attract leads, make sales and delivers for my clients…

While I barely lift a finger…

I can honestly say now that being my own boss and running my own offers is a damn dream come true.

I have all the time I want to be with my family, I’m earning more than I thought possible and have more capacity to focus on being a great leader for my team.

So it is possible — you can be your own boss and enjoy all the fringe benefits people talk about.

It just comes down to structuring your business the right way, leveraging automation and focusing on the biggest levers in your business.

I help my clients discover this freedom and joy in their business all the time. And the most impactful (and fastest) way I’m able to do this is through my one-on-one consulting days. 

If you’ve been on the fence about reaching out to book your own session — I’d encourage you to act now.

Because higher profits, more freedom and faster growth are all within your reach.
