𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐮𝐩, 𝐌𝐞𝐧! 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐄𝐎, 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐫.
When you’re hustling, grinding, and building your empire, your most valuable asset isn’t your muscles, your time, or even your money—it’s your brain. The power to think, strategize, and make decisions is what separates the leaders from the laborers. If you’re spending your time doing tasks that you can easily pay someone else to do, you’re playing yourself. Let me break it down for you.

You’re the man with the vision, the guy steering the ship. Your primary job is to think—deeply, creatively, and strategically. If you’re out there running errands, fixing broken furniture, or doing menial tasks, who’s steering your ship? No one. That’s how businesses fail: when the captain is busy swabbing the deck instead of plotting the course.
The richest men in the world—like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, or Warren Buffett—aren’t mowing their lawns or washing their cars. Why? Because they know their time is far too valuable to waste on tasks that don’t require their unique skills or vision. Buffett once said, “I delegate almost everything so I can focus on the big decisions.” That’s the mindset you need to adopt.

Every hour you spend doing something that a hired hand can do is an hour you could have spent solving bigger problems, crafting strategies, or coming up with your next money-making idea. Remember: the guy who digs the ditch gets paid by the hour, but the guy who owns the construction company gets paid by the project. Which one do you want to be?

Look at your daily grind and ask yourself, “What am I doing that someone else could do for me?” Tasks like cleaning, filing paperwork, scheduling meetings, and even cooking can be outsourced. Free your hands, free your time, and focus on the tasks that only YOU can do: growing the business, building relationships, and making major decisions.
Think about this: A barber makes money cutting hair. A barber shop owner makes money managing barbers. A franchise owner makes money by owning multiple shops and hiring managers. The higher you go, the less physical labor you do and the more you focus on thinking and leading.

Your hustle is your empire, and your mind is the engine that drives it. Don’t burn out your engine on trivial tasks. Focus your energy on what really matters—expanding your business, creating wealth, and building a legacy. Every time you find yourself bogged down by small tasks, ask yourself, “Is this the best use of my brain?”
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝, 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭
Men, your job is to hustle smart, not hustle hard. Pay for the help you need, delegate the work, and free your mind to think. The world doesn’t reward labor; it rewards vision. Be the man with the vision, not the guy stuck in the trenches. Your legacy depends on it. Stay sharp. Stay focused. Stay in control. You are the brain. Never forget it.
