Are You Behaving Like an Employee, the Business Owner, or the CEO of Your Business?
In your mind, are you an employee, business owner, or CEO?
Each of these scenarios involves taking a specific approach to how you allocate your time and money for achieving the result you want. But not everyone who is a CEO has a CEO mindset. To get to that place, you have to upgrade your mindset as well as how you use your most valuable business resources.
In this episode of Time to Level Up, you’ll hear about the three stages you might go through as you start, build, and grow your business. I’ll discuss the different mindset approaches in each stage, which depend on how you think of yourself.
1:41 - Why you might feel like an employee, not a CEO, in your business
5:58 - The scenario where you really start to think of yourself as an entrepreneur
9:34 - What you focus on when you have the CEO mindset
