The Key to Success in Entrepreneurship

Welcome to The K9PT Academy podcast, the only podcast in veterinary rehabilitation that focuses on helping business owners and entrepreneurs build and scale a profitable and successful canine rehabilitation business!

I am back from vacation and during that break I had the opportunity to do some reading and reflecting, and for today's episode I wanted to share some of my thoughts about the key to success in entrepreneurship. When I first became an entrepreneur and business owner my mindset was about “owning a job”, meaning having enough clients and patients on my own to simply cover the take home pay that I would otherwise have as a human physical therapist. However, 1-2 years into this journey I realized that I had to elevate my mindset when it came to it, otherwise I ran the danger of getting caught in a hamster wheel of simply owning a job rather than owning a true business. Listen to the full episode as we discuss:

  • Why most of the success in your life will come from understanding how and why to do the thing, and not from doing the thing itself
  • The importance of understanding that we are not in the canine rehab business but in the customer service business and we just happen to provide canine rehab as that service
  • How the fundamental principles of how to be successful has never changed, and why we need to master those principles
  • How to shift our mindset from simply working harder and harder, and stop wearing the "busiest person" badge of honor
  • The fallacy of developing passive income, and why that pursuit often gets in the way of us achieving the success that we want with our business
