The following is an excerpt of David\u2019s interview in Top Coaching Techniques<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ingrid: Hey David, you mentioned that you have a couple of balls in the court – a couple of different businesses. When you have your own business, how do you stop that from encroaching on your whole life?<\/p>\n

\n

David: That\u2019s a very good question and what some people say is, you really have to devote six days a week, minimum. I was reading that Dick Smith and other people say, \u2018Get stuck into it and have no life.\u2019 Now, I don\u2019t actually believe that\u2019s necessary. You can actually start a business with two days a week. If you have a job already, you don\u2019t have to just quit and go on and start something new. Again, take the guy making chili in his backyard \u2013 spend two days a week starting to develop the business and then get a small profit. Make a small profit and then you start expanding it. So, you may initially be working two days in the business, and then you expand it to three, and then four, and eventually do it full time. But, as I said, you start making systems out of the business and start hiring \u2013 for example – a high school student. Then maybe someone else who\u2019s more qualified for another role, and build it up. You don\u2019t have to be working in the business. That\u2019s a job, not a business.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
