Control is the ability to direct and influence the course of events so that targeted results are realized.
Primary Implication
If you feel that your business is controlling you more than you control it, then you need to invest some time and energy in improving your management skills.
Overview
Management, in a word, is control. It is more than “being in charge.” It is the power to direct and influence the course of events.
Loss of control over your time and money is often a function of trying to do too much. It’s a failure of not differentiating between what is urgent and important, not just urgent. It’s about setting aside time to work on the critical few things that aren’t pressing by not acting on the relevant many that are always robbing you of your time and energy. Adopt the BusinessCPR™ Management System to take control of your business.
Owning a business that performs how you want it to versus controlling your time, life, and money requires discipline and effort. Developing a clear understanding of the relationship between cash flow, profits, and financial reporting is the only way to manage your business and achieve your desired result effectively without working more hours to achieve your desired results.
