A profitable job can still cost you money.
Every job consumes capacity.
The question isn’t only what you’ll make by taking it.
It’s what you could make by putting those same resources somewhere else.
Revenue has an opportunity cost.
A forecast isn’t the future.
It’s where the business is heading if nothing changes.
The value isn’t in predicting the outcome.
It’s having time to change it.
If we’re not leading the outcome, the outcome is leading us.
A CFO shouldn’t discover the business through the financial statements.
The financial statements are just confirming what you already know because you’ve been living through the business.
Yesterday I met an interesting hotel owner. He started working in hotel parking lots. Didn’t speak the language (this was 15 years ago). Now he owns 6-7 prosperities as a family business.

Success is not about what you have or don’t have. You could lose it all in an instant...same way you can win the lottery. Rather #success is an attitude. A state of being. Are you successful? #smallbiz#smallbusinessowner#Entrepreneur
