you’re not playing hardball. This focus is how I made a
name for myself. I have the ability to get things done and
to get them done right. Very few people will argue with
that fact, whether they like me or not. I can deliver the
goods, and they know it. Rock solid is rock solid. Work
toward that reputation for yourself.
4. Get out. This approach will clear your slate for all the
new and exciting projects that are waiting to be done—by
you. This is another example of disciplined focus. When
a job is finished, it’s your time to move on. I have people
who will look after my developments, and there is no rea-
son for me to spend my time doing what other people can
do. My job is to find new projects for everyone to work
on. Figure out what your job is and streamline your
activities and mental energy to focus on that.

Considering the scope of my businesses, and the fact that I
am actively involved in all of them, I think you can recognize
the fact that I employ the Four-Step Formula on a daily basis.
Day in, day out, that is how I organize my thoughts and my
days. It worked for my father, and it works for me. Make it work
for you!
