“Would you tell me please, which way I ought to go from here?”
“That depends a good deal, on where you want to get to.” said the Cat.
“I don’t much care where —“ said Alice.
“Then it doesn’t matter which way you go.” said the Cat.
Alice’s classic encounter with the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland.
Sound
familiar for your own life, perhaps?
Do you know where you want to go?
Have you connected your purpose…
your passion….
with your priorities?
Have you (or do you) chosen a focus word for the year we’ve just begun - 2024?
I really struggled this year and then it just popped into my brain one morning -
Grit
Grit.
Resolved. Determined. Resourceful. Persistent. Committed. Consistent.
Even when the going gets rough.
Once the word settled in, next was to decide what I truly want for the year.
Have you taken this step?
Steve Jobs (paraphrasing) - “the only way to connect the dots is by looking backwards.”
Yet, we do have the capacity to connect the dots looking forward when we get
intentional.
It’s to decide what you really want and begin connecting the dots on purpose.
As far as your business, let’s start it by getting CLEAR on what your business really is; what you sell; who you sell it to; and the steps you’ll commit to and take consistently to get you where you desire to be.
Here is my guide to walk you through this.
Together, let’s “pinky swear” that we are going to practice grit. Be resolved. Determined. Resourceful. Persistent. Committed. Consistent.
To get it done this year and look back in one year with a sign of contentment!
