Although fun for our four legged friends, its not for us - measure results to make sure you're not chasing your tail.
Build your business with an introspective culture, take a weekly look at how many days you've self-combusted over workload, but accomplished nothing to move your business forward.
To keep moving forward, never let a day go by in which you haven't done at least one thing that directly relates to a major business goal. Don't get distracted by shiny stuff that leads you away from your core business.
Engage with your gut, by all means, ask and listen to others - take advice and guidance, but always check your own abilities. Blindly following someone else's strategy doesn't help you learn along the way.
Manage growth wisely; avoid overstretching yourself and your resources by taking on too much too fast.
But do look for collaborative opportunities. Opting for an island life intensifies survival rather than thriver instincts. Strategic alliances allow you to take on more significant contracts, offer more services, and cover larger territories. Many heads are better than one, collaborative brainpower is a vital asset.
