Shanli Liu, CPA, argues that consistency separates big business owners from small ones. Most entrepreneurs work hard then stop, killing growth. If your business makes $50,000 monthly, you should delegate two-thirds of the work and keep the revenue, building a team that runs without you.

The thing that separates the really big business owners from small business owners is consistency. A lot of people just like blow their workload and then they're like, okay, I'm done now. It's like, bro, like that effort is how you do business for an extended period of time. Like you work that hard and then you just don't stop working. I also think that what people don't do is they gas themselves, but they don't think, how can I keep this input continued? So it's like if this input created $50,000 in MRR, can I have somebody else take off two-thirds of the things on my plate and then we still have that same input? Like my team still does more input than most of y'all do, but I probably do less than you do. And a lot of you guys don't get to that second step. You just say, I can't do this forever. And of course you can't, because you're doing 4 people's work.
