Instead, I\u2019d hand over a list of the non-negotiable agreements that transform a soul-sucking grind into an extraordinary life! In this #BizTipFriday edition of the podcast, I get real about the "10 Commandments" for entrepreneurs that ensure you stay 10 out of 10 happy, no matter what phase your business is in. In this episode, you\u2019ll learn why I view having fun as a daily discipline and how I\u2019ve managed to stay in this game for 19 years without burning out. We\u2019re diving deep into the art of detachment, the danger of the "Midas Touch" trap, and how to stop giving your power away to the critics sitting in the stands, plus much more.  It\u2019s time to decouple your self-worth from your bank account and start choosing correctly from day one. Let\u2019s look at the hard truths your future self wants you to know so you can build a business that serves your life, and not the other way around!
