Ep. 74 - 3 Things You Need BEFORE Using “Hard Work” to Accomplish Your Goals

<p>We are back back back again with another episode of the Scottie Taylor Jr - Success + Money + Mindset Podcast!! </p> <p>Today’s episode is ALL about hard work.</p> <p>But I’m NOT going to talk about “hard work” in the way you might think.</p> <p>In fact, I’m not going to encourage you to work less or not try so hard.</p> <p>Instead, I’m going to share with you THREE things you MUST have in place before you use “hard work” to accomplish all of your goals.</p> <p>The reason I created this episode?</p> <p>I know what it’s like to be a new entrepreneur.</p> <p>And I know what it’s like to grow up in a world where “hard work” is seen as the HOLY GRAIL.</p> <p>In a world where the harder you work, the more successful you’re seen (and feel).</p> <p><strong>But, unfortunately, hard work ALONE isn’t the solution to a massively successful business.</strong></p> <p>But you probably already knew that already, right?</p> <p>See, if hard work ALONE got people massive success, then the teachers and servers of the world would be making millions.</p> <p><em>But that’s just not the case.</em></p> <p>I’ve said this before and I continue to stand by it: hard work alone can get you going in business and help you hit the $100k - $150k mark  – But getting to $300k+?</p> <p><strong>Hard work ALONE won’t cut it.</strong></p> <p>Think about where you are right now in your business. </p> <p>How much money are you making, and how hard are you working? Like how many hours a day?</p> <p>Let’s say you’re making $100k a year right now, and working 10-12 hours a day, 5 days a week….</p> <p><strong>If you’re here, you probably know there’s a breaking point</strong> </p> <p>If you want to DOUBLE to $200k….</p> <p><strong>You can’t work TWICE as hard, right? </strong><em>(and you very likely don’t WANT to).</em></p> <p>But….</p> <p>And this is a big butt…</p> <p>You WANT to keep working hard (at least most entrepreneurs do).</p> <p>The reason?</p> <p>When you’re an entrepreneur, there are a LOT of things outside of your control.</p> <ul> <li><p
