Everything I Thought I Knew About Profit Was Wrong

by | | Business Building | 12 comments

So I read a book that blew my dang mind, and I made a quick (2:22) video to share it with you.

**VULNERABLE-NESS ALERT**

I used to hide from anything money-related, not wanting to face the cold, hard truth of the numbers. In particular, the year of my divorce I made some really crappy financial decisions, and I felt a lot of shame around that.

Like, “Haven’t you learned better by now?!”

I felt foolish and out of control.

If you’ve ever felt that way about money, I want you to know that you’re not alone.

But you don’t have to feel hopeless about it, or ashamed.

The book I’m talking about in the video was a game changer for me, and helped me see why as entrepreneurs, we often feel like we’re the last to see the financial fruits of our business.

Light bulb moment after light bulb moment with this one.

Please check it out, and in the comments let me know what you think about the “flipped formula” I share, ok?

    Great insight, Christine! I need to re-read Michael’s book on Profit. His latest book, Surge, in which he explains how to keep current with changing trends. The focus of my client community has changed 4 times in the past 15 years, so once every 3-4 years. I need to be ahead of it rather than 2 years behind. Money is a sensitive and avoided conversation by many people, and a critical one for entrepreneurs Thanks for sharing!

    Haven’t read it, but makes sense. Like when you pay yourself first to savings before paying your expenses.
