And now our sales conversions are going up dramatically.

That's the difference between employee mindset and entrepreneur mindset.

Entrepreneurs see problems as opportunities.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

They get excited by problems and they apply the entrepreneurial process.

And employees say, hey, wait a second, I was never trained for this.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

I was never told how to do this.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

I was not given the rule book for this.

So therefore, I'll just ignore it.

I'll stay away from it because problems, it's not my problem.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

And this is the big fundamental shift.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

We need to say, hey, problems are great.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

We want problems.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

And is this problem for me?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

How would I test my assumptions?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

How would I build something quickly and cheaply?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Daniel Priestley: Plumbers Will Earn More Than Lawyers! I Predicted 2008, Now I'm Warning About 2029

How would I then test that?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

How would I then scale that, right?

And it's just those kind of few steps that if you embrace those entrepreneurial steps, then life becomes great.

And that is a process called pause-reflect-document.

And pause, reflect, document, if you do it correctly, you go into nature, away from noise and away from technology, and you take a pen and a paper and you sit in nature on a bench and you just pause and just let some boredom set in.
