Sachin Patel delivers a short YouTube talk asserting that the most important work for entrepreneurs is working on themselves. He emphasizes intentional, consistent self-work (not necessarily painful) and illustrates the point with a personal anecdote about telling his son that going for a walk was him "working on me." He links self-work to improvements across business, marriage, self-talk, and health.
Remember, in case some of you are wondering, what does this have to do with working on our business? I thought this was a business intensive. Well, the most intensive work that we have to do is on ourselves. And when we do that intense work on ourselves, it doesn't have to be painful, it has to be consistent, it has to be intentional. But what I want you to realize is that working on you is working on your business. Okay? So one day I remember my son asked me, my wife was dropping him off at school and I was heading out for a walk in the woods and he's like where are you going dad? I thought you had to work. I said I am working, I'm working on me. That's the most important work I do. And when I work on me, I am simultaneously working on everything in my life, including my business, including my marriage, including my self talk, including my health.
