Be a Machine
Those who work harder will be more profitable overall. We are not claiming that working “harder” is more advantageous than working “smarter.” You actually need to work harder with more raw man-hours AND work smarter by using evolving Best Practices to maximize your financial gain. Unlike the majority of business strategies, which are mostly theoretical, this is a mathematically sound principle that works virtually every time. The good news is that it applies to everyone and can seemingly work miracles. So if you are trying to evolve your business faster than your competition, one way to produce more, be more efficient and get a critical jump on those competitors is by putting in longer, harder hours of labor.
For example, a person who works eighty hours a week instead of forty is not necessarily twice as profitable proportionally; she’s more than likely three times as profitable due to economies of scale gained from focused work time. In the charitable world, someone who works twice as many hours could help three times as many people compared to their “competitor.” Naturally, an even better worker could be more than three times effective.
