Business Owner Newsletter - Page 29

Last week, we ended with a challenge to design an end-game scenario or story for the end of this year.  In other words, how would you optimally describe your business on December 31, 2016 if you could have your most desired outcome?  Today we begin with the end.  That is the only productive way to start anything with a desired result.  It is very hard to get there if you don't have any idea what it is.  You cannot create a path to something you have not identified. Engaging your team in a set of goals is almost impossible without the ability to tell them where they are going.

Here we go again. It is January and another new year. Time for those well-intentioned New Year's Resolutions most of us never seem to be able to keep. Do we lack so much discipline, or could it be our resolutions are just a wee bit unrealistic in the first place? Are we trying to bite off more than we can chew, or have we just now come to expect failure and disappointment when it comes to our "resolutions"?

As 2015 draws to a close, we want to take a moment to thank you for all your hard work. Owning a small business can be tough, but it can also be very rewarding.   Small business ownership can enable you to realize extraordinary value. Our days are dedicated to working with business owners and leaders to design the results that enable them to achieve their goals and realize their dreams. Through intentional thought and action our clients craft a business that reflect their values and realizes their vision.

We believe you should be connected to the passion, hope, dreams and desires you had when you became a business owner; to be inspired every day to achieve your vision! Take a few minutes to reflect and recall what you hoped to achieve through owning a small business.
