And if that's not cool for you, then maybe being an entrepreneur isn't the right move.
And I don't say that to be disrespectful.
But I say that as a matter of what your priorities are, because having multiple priorities as an entrepreneur is the nature of the game.
And you have to do the best that you can do in each situation.
All right.
There's been times over my life, lots of them where I had to miss things and not little things, big things, because I was dealing with things going on in the business.
There's been times where.
shit man i'm on vacation which is not very often but most of the time when i leave i end up having to solve some shit all right now don't stop now now now where i'm at after 27 years i have very competent team but in the beginning it was all in all the time right now if i get a call on a saturday night it's a fucking problem yeah it's a big problem yeah but that was systems came way later though those that's right take care of that that's right and the better
that you can make your systems in the early days, the faster you can get to that position.
But that still takes time.
It takes training.
It takes building an amazing team that understand what you're trying to do and how to do it the proper way.
But at the end of the day for this question, the answer is this.
Stop looking at those things like they're a hindrance and start looking at them as an opportunity.
Because if that motherfucker calls you at 8 o'clock on a Saturday night and he needs a fucking pepperoni pizza, you better go get it and bring it over to his motherfucking house and bring him some chicken wings, too, just as a little extra.
That's what it takes to be successful.
And this is why I always talk that...
Most people's concept of what it takes is not in line with what it actually takes.
And I don't think it's even close.
I don't think that most people truly have an understanding of how much more it takes to get something built.
