As a visionary, it's very, very difficult to have your thumb on all of your different departments, and grow and scale the company. In fact, I'd say it's impossible. That's why you delegate the lower paying tasks to others so you can focus on the tasks that bring you more profit. In today's episode of Friday Fire, I want to talk about the value of delegating tasks to individuals with specific skillsets.

One thing I consistently find myself touching on during my consulting sessions is consistency. And as an entrepreneur I've never had an issue consistently working on my business.

If you've been around the show for any amount of time, you'll know I'm a huge proponent of the Apex Entrepreneurship organization.

In today's episode, I want to talk a little bit about self-development. Growing up in rural northern England, "self-help" wasn't part of the vernacular. Working on myself and asking myself tough questions didn't happen until much later in life. After a bit of careful thought, I've decided to challenge myself, and commit to a few goals over the coming months and I'm challenging you all to do the same.
Today's guest is someone I'm super excited to have met. He's an expert on getting your mind to work for you instead of against you. Please welcome to the show, Mr. Mind Ninja himself, Wiley McArthur.

Let's face it, some clients suck. We all run into them from time to time. But lately, it's been happening to me less and less. Do you know why? Simply because I choose not to work with them. "Oh but Sam… I can't do that." Sure you can. And I'll tell you how.
