How should I think about improving my art business over time?

Focus on making your business 1% better every week. If you improve by 1% each week for a year, you’ll be 52% better by the end of the year. It’s not about asking ‘what if I fail’ — it’s about asking ‘how do I make this succeed?’ Every day, think about how to make the business better. What can you do to improve? This incremental approach compounds over time and leads to significant growth.
