The Two Questions You Need to Answer

One of the questions we always ask business owners is: “If this is going to take a year, are you prepared to put everything into it?”.

And usually they’ll say “Yeah, I am.”.

Then we’ll say, “What if it takes two years, still prepared to do whatever it takes?”.

“Yes, definitely”.

“Ok, what if it takes three years?”.

“Err, hmmm, maybe”.

And then we know where their head is at.

If you can relate to this, or know someone that is feeling like this, then two good questions to help are: 

1. Where is your love for your business on a 1 to 10 scale right now?

2. And what would make it 10?

It may be a case of: “Actually, I’m not prepared to do that in order to get it” – and that’s ok, because only when you align both what you want AND what you’re prepared to do to get it, can you work towards rapidly accelerating to where you can get to. 

Take time to think about those two questions this week; it’s a BIG deal and will enable you to take control of your business and your life.
