Time To Rethink….

You’re on a mission and things are going according to plan….or are they?

Ever so often you need to reevaluate your goals. Have you reached them? Are they too easily attained? Are they so far off that they are impossible to reach? Or perhaps, you have veered off your path entirely…. I was pretty sure I knew my path and for some reason, I decided to add an entirely new piece of the puzzle to my program.

However, I do believe my puzzle did not offer a spot for this piece, but I wasn’t aware of that or maybe I was just too stubborn to pull the plug. I had a vision in my head about what this additional piece could be, what it could offer and how it should look. It was so clear to me that I was already beginning a relationship with it.

You see, I’m all about building relationships so this was easy for me. I put all my efforts into this new and exciting program and took my eye completely off everything else….translation future revenue. As I was getting more and more involved with this program, I couldn’t help but think I was on the right track. Again, my vision was crystal clear.

Then reality started to rear its ugly head…. The technology was not robust enough, the designer was in over his head and more and more content was needed to keep the program as valuable as I wanted. But I kept insisting we continue until I had the mother of all strategy sessions with a friend, business professional and someone that wasn’t afraid to call b.s. on me…. What was the outcome of that session? That’s part two, and you can read about it soon! 🙂
