Are You Happening To The World, Or Is It Happening To You?
Wednesday, 27 August, 2025
Do you feel like your team can’t function without you? Dan Sullivan and Gord Vickman reveal why entrepreneurs should get out of their own way, and how constant availability stifles growth. Learn the "6 p.m. doorbell rule," why deleting 660 emails was a breakthrough, and how to reclaim your time without losing control. Show Notes: Constant availability as a founder signals to your team that you don’t trust them to operate independently. The “6 p.m. doorbell rule” reminds you to set boundaries. If someone’s reaching out after hours, it’s usually for their benefit, not yours. When you mass delete your inbox, you learn how little truly requires your direct involvement. Being needed for every small decision is a trap entrepreneurs often set for themselves. If you’re always accessible, you teach your team to rely on your thinking, preventing them from growing their own capabilities. An entrepreneur can build in layers of teamwork between themselves and whoever might want to contact them. Value your own time as highly as your company’s best product. Stop giving it away to anyone who asks. True opportunity is rarely missed by stepping back; in fact, real opportunities come from protecting your focus. If your company falls apart when you’re gone, it means you have a job, not a business. Resources: What Free Days™ Are And How To Know When You Need Them The Impact Filter™ The Transformation Trilogy
