186: Creating A Life Of Freedom with Carl Taylor

Listen on

Episode notes

Time is the most valuable thing for any entrepreneur. As your business becomes busier by the second and demands are piling up every day, it can be difficult to keep up. There always seems to be something that demands your attention. 

Instead of asking yourself “how do I fit all these tasks in?”, try asking yourself “how do I remove myself from the equation and still achieve great results?” 

In this episode, we deep dive into how to really find freedom in your business and the power of building a business that can work without you.

A business that is independent of its owner is worth much more than an owner-dependent one. A business that truly serves your life is a business that gives you the freedom of choice.
