We’re all trying to get more out of life, but there’s often a disconnect between the actions we take and the goals we’re aiming for. The reason for this is that we treat ourselves like workers instead of treating ourselves like the boss. When you’re an employee you basically do what you’re told without asking many questions simply because that’s your job. You may screw around and you may take your time because, generally, you have little personal interest in the job before you.
When you are a manager, you have much more to gain, or lose, if you don’t do a good job. To act more like a boss you simply have to treat yourself like a factory instead of a person. If you want to turn your life around in some key areas, you have to manage your life, not just try to work harder.
