As we gear up for 2024, one seasoned entrepreneur shares his secret sauce for sustained success. With over two decades of experience and a thriving tech consulting firm, he's not a billionaire, but he's mastered the art of a good life and a flourishing business. Here are his top 9 habits:

1. Early Bird Gets the Worm: Starting the day at 5 am, he taps into undisturbed productivity, proving peace and quiet are the ultimate sidekicks for success.

2. Know Your Numbers: As a CPA, he stresses the importance of being on top of your finances, from daily sales to weekly cash flow.

3. Face-to-Face Wins the Race: Despite the digital age, nothing beats in-person interactions for sealing deals and strengthening relationships.

4. Feed Your Mind: A mix of fiction for human insights and non-fiction for business acumen, coupled with insightful podcasts, keeps the brain sharp and spirits high.

5. Squash Your Stress: Regular exercise, like squash or cycling, isn't just about fitness; it's about mental clarity and breaking the monotony.

6. Embrace AI: Staying ahead of tech trends, especially AI, is non-negotiable for modern business growth.

7. People First: Valuing and investing in his small team ensures loyalty, quality service, and a supportive work environment.

8. Tax-Savvy Meetings: Regular check-ins with his accountant help him navigate the ever-changing tax landscape and plan ahead.

9. Family Matters: Amidst the hustle, making time for family and friends keeps him grounded and supported.

While these habits might not guarantee a spot on the cover of Entrepreneur Magazine, they've been the backbone of a rewarding and profitable journey. Here's to a year of growth, balance, and success! 🌟
