Automation and optimization can steal the soul from your business, leaving you trapped in a cycle of going through the motions. Pat Flynn, founder of Smart Passive Income, discovered this harsh truth when his once-thriving business started feeling like just another job - even while generating $35-40,000 per month. His solution wasn't to work harder or optimize more, but to rediscover fun and embrace what he calls the "20% Itch Rule." Pat's journey from laid-off architect to multi-millionaire entrepreneur who now commands 1.7 billion views opening Pokemon cards reveals how protecting time for experimentation and joy isn't just good for your soul - it's essential for sustainable success and attracting unexpected opportunities that can transform your entire trajectory.
