That Is The Way I’ve Always Done It! Or Stop Stopping.
Ever wonder what others are doing to enhance their business, how others find technicians, or what real profits look like?
If you’ve never wondered about these and other consequential thoughts and never did anything about them, you are stuck in a routine that drives your hamster wheel.
“That is the way I’ve always done it.” Ever thought this thought? How business is and how it gets done differs from last year and three months ago. Technology gives us options, clients have different mindsets, and generations are growing up and want different things. The world around us is changing.
Let’s talk clients. Are they more sophisticated? You bet. They have more access to information and the reality of the world around us than ever, thereby changing their expectations of professionalism in all aspects of life and business relationships.
You now understand the premise of this blog. If you have not made any big decisions to update, fix, refresh, renovate, or improve (you get the picture), you are in the ‘Always done it like this MODE/RUT.’
There is no better time to start than now. Stop stopping. Don’t ignore the changes necessary to improve your life, family, and business.
If you are willing to stop the current or old ways, look brightly to the future, and have no idea how to start, here are just a few steps to take.
Interview and hire a coach.
Be vulnerable and transparent, and explain what you need to fix, change, and improve. Write down your why, purpose, and dream you had on the first day you started your business.
Get your books (financials) in order.
Your coach can help with this and can help you review the key indicators to improve your financial health. Money (read profit) allows you to grow and hire great talent. If you don’t have the money, there isn’t much you can do (but you already know that).
Join a local networking group or call a friend who can be a good listener and mentor.
It all starts with you. You have to want it. If you love your current routine, continue your spiral into nothingness. If you want to accomplish your dream, the dream you had when you started, do something about it.
Stop doing what you’ve always done because you’ll continue to get what you got, and that is most likely nothing but a routine to nowhere.
