Her words stick with me to this day. “You can do anything for a year.” That’s what a friend of mine told me during a visit with me a few years ago. We were talking about some of life’s challenges. And how to know when to say when. And we agreed on how you can do just about anything for that long.
Sure, that’s within reasonable limits. I mean, c’mon, you can’t hold a 200 pound barbell over your head for a year. But I’m sure you get the gist of what I mean.
If you do anything for a year, you really give it a fighting chance.
I’m talking about things you can truly commit to for the long haul. Like, having (and running) a business. Taking care of a family. Or building meaningful relationships.
OK, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, those things require your commitment to better habits. You want things to last and go well. But none of that happens by accident. And here’s an example of what I mean.
When you first learn to ski, you start out with the snowplow maneuver. And it strains your legs SO much. But it’s the surest way to not fall down the slope. But you soon discover how tiring that can be. So, you listen to your instructor, and you gradually learn to glide into your turns. Then, before you realize it, you’re gliding down the intermediate trails with your friends. Then, best part is, you celebrate with a hot toddy.
Yeah, you gotta go through the training before you get to the gaining.
But that’s how skiing (or swimming or tennis or any other activity) is like business.
It all happens better and faster with a proven system.
For sports, that’s the instructor. For business, that’s the RondaReady Business System hub.
How about we talk about it some more? I’d like to see if I can help you get your business out of the snowplow stage and on to the intermediate and expert trails better and faster. Remember, you can do anything for a year. And this certainly doesn’t have to take that long.
So, schedule a time to talk with me about it. You won’t know till you know.
