There are lots of commonalities between successful businesses and good martial arts:

  • It is not about just cost or revenue, it is about squeezing a healthy margin. Being able to find an ‘angle’ that you have advantage is important.
  • Applying the law of leveraging is important in both.
  • Investment into the future is important but being able to survive right now is just as important.
  • All successful businesses provide a positive environment such that workers are not afraid to be creative and works well together.
  • Know your competitors, know your own strength and weaknesses, know mega-trend changes are all vital to survival.
  • Have a vision of where you want to go while having measureable small steps to track progress are both very important.
