Best-selling Author and Business Coach, Ahmed Abdulbaqi, gets to the root of the frustration many business owners feel after being in business for a couple of years and defines where the focus needs to be in order to stay engaged about business moving forward.

Jedda, Saudi Arabia – November 28, 2017 – Ahmed Abdulbaqi, The Growth Coach franchise owner, and co-author of The Art Of Success with Jack Canfield, posted a new article on his company website entitled “The Role of The Business Owner.” Starting a business may sound like a good idea, but Mr. Abdulbaqi points out that without the correct perspective many business owners end up feeling trapped.

Abdulbaqi writes, “Most of us go into business for freedom: time freedom, financial freedom and definitely freedom to live the life that we want and desire. So we go into business and start the journey.” He continues adding, “After a year and two passes many business owners find that they are trapped in a multitude of miscellaneous tasks including sales, marketing, operations, technical, financial, etc.” “That’s typically when the confusion begins,” says Abdulbaqi, adding, “At this point the business owner finds they are asking themselves, ‘Why am I here?’”

Abdulbaqi states, “It’s safe to say that we business owners often encounter problems that are beyond our abilities. The only thing that makes matters worse is that instead of asking for advice or help, we tend to attempt to solve all problems all by ourselves. I’m speaking from experience here.”

“This attitude,” writes Abdulbaqi, “puts business owners in a weird position. We spend our time ‘putting out fires’ so to speak. This method erodes any effectiveness or efficiency.” He elaborates, “We find we are simply providing temporary solutions by reacting in the moment and are not solving the root causes of the problems. The solution is to understand what our true function or role is as business owners.”

According to Abdulbaqi, “First and foremost, a business owner is the leader of his business. No matter how small the business is especially in the initial stages, the business owner must act like a leader.” He further states, “A leader’s role is to establish the vision and mission of the company and then do his/her best to uphold all activities to serve the mission of the business. Therefore the mission keeps the leader and the business focused toward the vision.”
