Have you ever had one of those ‘Ah-Ha’ moments where
you say to yourself “That’s so simple!, so why aren’t
I doing it?”
“I want my business to explode, I want to be financially free
so why am I missing something so important, and so obvious?”
“Why haven’t I faced the numbers?”
Have you ever noticed how often it’s the simple things that
trip us up?
That we sometimes get bogged down doing the things we enjoy
in our business, and that bring us satisfaction – but may not
move our business forward.
I don’t know about you, but I seem to do it all the time,
I get involved in trying out some new idea or method that’s
bandied about in chat groups, forums, social networks or
arrives in my inbox, and time moves on.
Or I continue to do the same things this week as I did last
week, this month as I did last month. It’s called habit.
Here’s the problem with habits. Habits can be good, or they
can be bad.
In business bad habits are the comfortable ones, the easy
ones, the unthinking ones that don’t drive your business
forward.
There’s a saying ‘Nothing changes, if nothing changes’ and
if your business isn’t growing at the speed you would like
maybe it’s time for a change.
The question is? How do I know when it’s time to make
changes, and how can I stop habit dragging me along the
same old, unproductive, path.
I would council you now to take a pen and paper
and decide – how will you face the numbers?
What’s the important numbers in your business
that you must keep track of and review often?
A Hint: Once a month is good, every 15 days is better.
