Ep. 51 - Two Keys To Reaching Your Goals
Congratulations! You’ve made it through 2020 and now it’s on to the new year. None of us has ever lived through a pandemic. Of course it’s not quite over yet but as we look toward the new year, there is always a lot of renewed hope and anticipation.
And as business owners we are always establishing new sets of goals. Regardless of the year, entrepreneurs always set goals but accomplishing them is another thing. Pandemic or not, there always seems to be something that gets in the way of fully realizing our goals. And I’m not simply talking about sales goals but some of the other things that can really drive growth like developing new products, content, establishing new connections, training your team better, or launching into new sales channels. You know, the big stuff.
Why does this happen...or not happen? There is so much stuff going on in the business at all times that the typical business owner gets pulled in multiple directions. Does this sound like you?
Then this episode is for you. Establishing goals is one thing but how do we carve out time to accomplish them? It takes disciplined FOCUS and ORGANIZATION.
