Actionable Key Takeaways for Trades Operators:

• Set your business up to WIN. What can you do successfully TODAY? Do that and repeat.

• Don’t try to justify your bad habits by counteracting them with good habits. Growth doesn’t happen that way. Instead, you must intentionally change your habits so they guide you on the path to success.

• Instead of trying something new and difficult in your business, write out a list of “shoulds” and commit to succeeding in those first.
