BRX Pro Tip: Being Your Own Boss
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you this morning. Lee, today’s topic, being your own boss.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:09] Yeah. I’ve had the privilege to talk to a lot of folks who have transitioned from maybe a corporate job into an entrepreneurial opportunity. And when they step into that role, I think one of the biggest, biggest learnings and one of the biggest mindset shifts that a new leader has to make is adjusting to not having a boss. And when you’re managing yourself, that means you are responsible for your actions and all of the results that occur. There is no place to hide when you are in charge.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:43] And it’s like that Spider-Man movie says, “With great power comes great responsibility,” the buck stops with you and you’re the one who has to take the action in order to make the big things happen. And once you truly understand that, I think most people, the light bulb goes off and then they shift into this action mode where I’ve got to take action, I’ve got to hold myself accountable, I have to be the one that’s the catalyst to move the ball. And I’m not saying you have to do all the work, but you definitely have to be the one that is dreaming bigger, that is kind of showing the path and doing the activities that take to achieve the goals that you’re setting out to achieve.
