He knew he needed to spend some research and development time on his business. But he just couldn’t seem to find the time because he had too much…well…too much business. In fact it felt like he was working 30 hours out of every 24 hours. Until one day, a little voice said, “You should get out of your own way, or you’re gonna be like this the rest of your life.”
Actually that little voice was me. And I’m not sure if I said it exactly that way. But it certainly sounds like how I would have said it.
Because sometimes you really do need to get out of your own way.
It’s easy to tell yourself you don’t have time to learn more. Or that you don’t have time to focus on what’s holding you back. And when you listen to those limiting, justification thoughts, you can sometimes forget the very things that got you as far as you are. You know, insignificant things like…
Relationships.
Uh-oh. I said the R word. But it’s true. When you don’t nurture relationships, it doesn’t matter if you come up with great ideas or not. Because you’ll be so busy working on work that everything else fades away. Here’s how my client, Daric, described it…
“As busy as my daily business has become, I never seemed to find the time for further business reflection and development. And, as a matter of fact, I don’t think I’ve worked on pure development in over 5 years. This is why I have been stymied. And I appreciate our time spent identifying the limiters and hindrance’s and putting strategies in place to get out of my own way. I also appreciate you lending an ear to talk about everyday life and provide positive perspective.” – Daric G. – Event Planner
That’s right. Don’t stand in the way of your own positive perspective.
Why make it harder on yourself than necessary? And when you work on building relationships, you might even find others who help you go further much faster.
