Work On Your Business, Not In It

by

When I started out as a landlord, I believed that it was much more sensible for me to be cutting the grass, fixing kitchen sinks and painting walls.  In other words, I believed that working in my business was a much better use of my time than working on my business.

The exact opposite is true.

How many deals did I miss because my head was under the kitchen sink?  How much cashflow have I missed out on because I was cutting grass?

I will never really know, but hopefully I can help you not make the same mistakes.  So check out this short video about working on your business, not in it.

As I said in the video, I got a new camera for my birthday so I am trying out some new ideas for content here at Smarterlandlording.com.  Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas for future videos with your comments.
