"All progress takes place outside your comfort zone." ~Michael John Bobak Have you ever been on a lazy river ride? You know, you sit in the inner tube and the water just moves you around the "river." That's one of the only places I can imagine where it takes little to no effort on your part to make progress...that is, if you consider going around in circles progress. The truth is that real progress (movement toward a goal) requires YOU to get outside your warm, comfy cocoon and make some new calluses. Of course, blisters come first and those blisters can be quite painful, but if you want to find success as an entrepreneur, business owner, or just in life...you need the blisters. Situations like we've been going through for the past couple of months really emphasize the need for planning and stress testing the business, and that stuff is not fun. But if you don't do it in planning and learn from the mistakes of preparation, then your only choices it to learn in real time...and THAT can be fatal to your business. Take a few minutes right now and think about two or three things that you've been putting off till "tomorrow" and make completing them today a priority! Enjoy!
