THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BUSINESS AND A JOB, AND WHY YOU CANNOT KEEP DOING IT ALONE!

A business is a system, a job is a part of a system. What then is a system? A system is a group of inter-related parts working together in harmony to achieve a particular goal. In the context of what we are talking about, the goal is to CREATE TREMENDOUS VALUE FOR THE CUSTOMER OR CLIENT AND GENERATE MONEY VIA IT!

So a business is actually a group of inter-related parts working together to create tremendous value for the customer/client and generate money via this.

What are these inter-related parts? They are the various roles that are required to be played in order to achieve the goal of the business. These roles include: marketing, sales, customer relations, product/service creation, research and development, staff management, accounting and book-keeping, quality control etc.

At the beginning, one person fills in most or all of those roles. But as you grow, it becomes absolutely impossible for one person to do all of those things. As a matter of fact, if you really desire to grow, you must form a team of persons to do those things.

Summary: Stop trying to run a one-man show. It is not good for you, your family, your health, or the health of your business. Put systems in place. Stop trying to run a business like it’s a job. You’re suppressing and killing the potentials of that business. That business can and will grow so much more as a system run by many persons, not by a single “superman!”
