They’re just busy fools. “It’s actually trying to work hard that’s holding them back.” Strategy beats sweat.2️⃣ Burnout sneaks up slowly then hits like a truckMike didn’t realise how burnt out he was until months after shutting his gym. “It was only two months later I realised how bad I was.”3️⃣ Success without sacrifice is possible if you stop selling your time“The real shift,” Mike says, “is selling outcomes, not hours.” It’s how he broke free from the founder trap and built a scalable, sustainable business.4️⃣ The workplace is the new religionWith declining community and belief systems, Mike argues that people now seek meaning, purpose and belonging through their work. Leaders need to step up.5️⃣ If your business can’t run without you, you don’t own a business, you own a jobMike’s mantra: the business must work for you, not the other way round.
