If you can articulate the mission that motivates your business endeavours and commit to taking action on it every day. You will succeed both critically and financially. It’s almost automatic; money always takes care of itself. The problem is that you lack clarity about your mission; you’re not sure what you should be doing in

Keep your mission simple and clearly defined. With a well-defined mission statement, you should be on your way to meeting your objectives. Except that sometimes we miss it. Taking actions that are not in line with your stated mission leads to failure. On the other hand, sometimes one starts well on the path, but then
