I've always been a 'list maker.'
I've used the same Franklin planner since 1994 -
though I've now added Google Calendar to the mix too.
Needless to say - I love planning ahead.
But something I've come to learn over the past couple of
years is that things change so quickly that if you aren't
constantly learning and adapting - the best laid plan won't work.
Just a few years ago our big plan was to own a dozen health
clubs in our region.
Now, instead we have over a dozen businesses that serve
people all over the globe.
Plans we've made for each of our businesses have changed
frequently - sometimes on a quarterly basis - always adapting
to new things we've learned or sometimes new technologies
that allow us to have more impact.
For your business it's the same.
You've got to be willing to adapt.
If one means of generating leads isn't working, find another.
If your market isn't responding to what you're doing - change.
You've heard it many times before, but that doesn't make
it any less true:
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting
different results."
Determine what your mission is - then take action to achieve it.
Fail fast and move on.
Having a plan is a good start. Being willing to change the plan will
give you a better finish.
Dedicated to your success -
Pat
