Use Your Brain by Peter Thomson

Use your brain, not your endurance. Peter Thomson
One of the most important, and often overlooked, skills for entrepreneurial success is the ability to think and think deeply. Far too many entrepreneurs and business owners rely more on their ability to persevere and endure than on their ability to think strategically to solve problems and capitalize on opportunities.

Scheduling time to just think is mission critical to your success. In our fast-paced world fewer and fewer executives are carving out time to think strategically about their business. With text messages beeping, cell phones ringing, email notifications popping and twitter tweeting – there is a steady barrage of interruptions which end up preventing focused, meaningful thought.

Wise entrepreneurs block out specific chunks of time for thinking. Committing even fifteen minutes per day to uninterrupted thinking time can make a huge difference. Guard and protect this time with your life because ultimately your thinking time will be a life or death factor for your business.

Remember it is better to rely on your brain than on your endurance.
