How to Prepare to Win

It's been my experience that most entrepreneurs miss a very
important step when it comes to the success of their
businesses: they fail to plan. When you are your business
it's extremely easy to get caught up in putting out the
latest fire or being distracted by the newest email. (I'm
so guilty of this one that I now turn my email off when I'm
working on anything but email!) In order to really be on an
energy track of pulling in clients and growing your
business, you must plan.

Some professionals that I've chatted with actually boast
about not having a plan. They love that they're
self-employed and feel entitled to freedom. I agree with
the love of freedom, but if you want to have a juicy,
dripping with clients business, you must set yourself up
for that (because then that's what you'll get). I'm not a
big sports fan, but I really doubt that the tennis players
that just wrapped up Wimbledon went in with an
"ah-let's-just-wing-it" attitude. Is your life and business
really worth less than a tennis-match? I'm going to say, NO!

Energy Rich Entrepreneurs are excellent planners. They are
always looking ahead. Charting when they want a project
completed by and putting in place systems that guarantees
it is completed. Now here's the jiggy-real Energy Rich
Entrepreneurs don't limit their plans to only what they
know. They create a vision, commit to it, and set about
finding someone who'll know how to get it done (with
results!) and is willing to help.

Energy Rich Entrepreneurs aren't afraid to ask for and
receive help. They know it's the best way to win.

Now, let's also be honest, planning isn't all the rage.
Planning isn't about instant pleasure. It's much more fun
to just hand over the responsibility to someone else, right?

Well, let's do a re-frame: what about creating your own
vision? Seeing how you want it to look? Dreaming of how you
want your business to be…believing it can happen…going
about crafting the steps along the way…doing what it takes
to charge your goals and dreams with energy.

That's exciting. Let's get to it!

Call-to-Action:

Take out a calendar.

Look at the next 90 Days (approximately 3 months).

What would you like to have completed by that time?

What would you like to be doing differently?

Create a 90-Day action plan for yourself that has your
bigger year and life vision in mind.

Keep it somewhere you can see it.

In 90 days…repeat :) This keeps the energy moving forward!
