without a plan (not necessarily a 60 page full plan- but at the least a written set of goals and target) you will begin to feel like the proverbial hamster in the wheel. You will bust your tail all day every day, and not get where you don't even know you want to go.

Many businesses that failed had plans, many more didn't. Many businesses that succeeded didn't have plans, many more did. What's going to give you better odds- knowing where you want to go and figuring out how to get there? or just running in a circle all day?

What's better for your employees? showing them where you plan to go and where they can advance? or running them ragged with no idea where they are running to?

run your business how you want, just make sure you don't hurt the industry in the process.
