What are you allowing to keep you stuck?
What are you ALLOWING to keep you from
doing the things
that you know you should be doing
to create the IDEAL business you want?
Before you answer that, let me go on….
Imagine a battle in which you cannot “sort” your friend from your foe… This is a battle inherently more difficult and more dangerous to fight, as the the moments you must take to determine “friend or foe” are precious.
On the “battlefield” of business, entrepreneurs are often in a similar — albeit far less dangerous — situation, in constant “assessment” mode:
❓ Is this opportunity the right one? Or will it distract me?
❓ Is this good or bad?
❓ Should I or shouldn’t I?
❓Will this help? Or will it be another waste of my time?
Friend or foe?
Friend or foe?
Friend or foe?
I am vigilant about assessing my business. I do it regularly.. always looking for ways to scale and leverage my actions and success… and also — because LIVING MY LIFE on MY TERMS and because I DETEST “busy” — looking for things that have become distracting or no longer useful.
CHIEF among the items I assess and identify is: the ENEMIES of my success.
One “foe” of success — yours and mine — is our tendency to over-complicate and over-analyze any situation, therefore DELAYING profitable action because we’re still deciding.
Quick Note: I have hard and fast rules — personal policies — that help me sort opportunities, make decisions and even determine which PEOPLE I spend time with, partner with, or invite into WOW. These personal policies are really just a set of absolutes that keep me in ACTION mode and not in “deciding” mode. Friend or foe… easily and quickly answered by me, ON THE GO, without substantial pause.
DO YOU have a similar list that helps you make decisions fast? Would you like my own list? If so, message me and i’ll shoot it to you.
Moving on…
Whenever I take a step back to assess my business through this lens, I can acknowledge — without judgement — some things that have KEPT ME DISTRACTED or DELAYED from the big things that could have moved my business forward.
These aren’t necessarily bad things. In fact, most of them aren’t, but if they are HINDERING ME living out my FULL purpose on this earth, make no mistake… they will be identified and dealt with as enemies. 😊
So, here’s today’s 2- PART challenge:
1) CAN YOU IDENTIFY THOSE THINGS THAT — SO FAR THIS YEAR — HAVE KEPT YOU DISTRACTED AND DELAYED? Habits? Routines? People? Specific Clients? Obligations? A lack of boundaries? And then…..
2) ARE YOU WILLING TO DEAL WITH THEM, DECISIVELY, SO THEY ARE NO LONGER NEGATIVELY IMPACTING THE FULLNESS OF YOUR SUCCESS?
If you need CASH for your business — FAST — for the love of all things holy, go sell something. (You may also want to join Women Who WOW, so message me about that. We are wrapping up an INSANE “income explosion” intensive!!)
Let’s do this. Tell me how I can help.
