Want to build a 10+ figure business and 9+ figure net worth? Fastest way, maybe the ONLY way is to become a great leader, a great CEO of your company. Steve Wozniak was a great musician. Steve Jobs played the orchestra.
It's never too late to be who you might have been. George Elliot.
This thread is for you if you aspire to be a CEO, to be a leader. It is not for everyone.
This thread is not for you, if you hate the idea of dealing with employees or thinking BIGGER.
You are still reading means you do want a bigger business and that CEO role. Ask yourself:
For those few remaining... stick around, we'll have fun.
Traits of a good leader:
Try answering these questions:
1. Learning, 2. Listening (asking questions), 3. vision, 4. overconfidence, 5 interruptions, 6. complacency, and 7. ability to make things happen and to delegate. @Kak talks about this the Kyle Keegan Radio Show (KKRS) a lot.
You are a leader if and only if people follow you when they have the freedom not to. Jim Collins.
P.S. Why am I doing this? To clarify my own thinking and help others in similar position along the way.

This thread is not for you, if you hate the idea of dealing with employees or thinking BIGGER.
You are still reading means you do want a bigger business and that CEO role. Ask yourself:
- Why do you want it? Be honest, if you had all the money you ever wanted, would you still want to do it?
- What does "success" mean to you?
- What is your moral compass? Did you ever write down things you wouldn't do?
For those few remaining... stick around, we'll have fun.
Traits of a good leader:
- Courage - to take a stand
- Perseverance - to finish what you start
- Integrity - to say what you mean
- Self-control - to keep emotion in check
- Fairness - knowing right and wrong
- Discretion - humility, modesty.
Try answering these questions:
- An effective leader never stops doing what?
- What is the CEO's single most important skill?
- What is the one job a CEO cannot delegate?
- What is the leading cause of CEO's errors in judgement?
- What are CEO's biggest time wasters?
- What is the single best predictor of company's poor performance?
- What two skills differentiate good from bad CEOs?
