A RECIPE FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS

COMMITTING TO YOUR BUSINESS IS A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS

You can kiss your business “goodbye”.

Or, say “hello” to it!

Your business is like a lifelong friend who’s become a bit flaky with bad ideas taking shape, conflicts arising and self-indulgence appearing. Your friend also likes to borrow money from you. And he or she never pays it back, and wants you to go out with him or her all the time leaving family and friends alone and personal projects undone. So, you’ve decided to ignore this friend for the time being. Go along just to get along. Maybe he or she will pay you back, get on track and become the old friend you had when you first met.

Ever looked at your business that way? Are you just ignoring it now?

Would you allow any friend to treat you that way and still be friends?

No?

Then probably you shouldn’t allow your business to treat you that way either.

COMMITMENT TO YOUR BUSINESS

If a friend was in trouble, wouldn’t you help? You’d get focused, think of some plan to help, follow through. Get and give your friend advice. There’s nothing you wouldn’t do for your friend to help him or her get back to prosperity and good health.

Put your arm around yourself, and help your friend (your business) in the same way.

RECIPE FOR SUCCESS:

• Re-commit to your business (practice)
• Diagnose any problems
• Seek advice
• Set a plan in motion
• Create new ideas for success
• Follow through with the plan
• Make adjustments if necessary
• Stay engaged and focused
• Don’t forget to plan new goals
• Love the one(s) you’re with (your team)
• Success breeds success
• Get paid back
• Stay committed (A viciously delectable cycle!)

Kiss yourself on the cheek. You’re now back in business! Though you thought you were in business all along, really you’ve just been going through the motions – going to work every day. Doing the same thing every day – with the same results. Tiresome habit.
