The Business Growth Principle
No business have grown overnight, it is a process!
If you have made the decision to do any business, Congratulations!
You have surpassed the greatest obstacle. But wait, after this what?
You might be asking that question, but you are in a far better position now compared to those who have not made any decision yet. You are standing on a starting point of an Entrepreneur. That is your Day 1 as shown in our image below.
The ladder of Success
Your direction is going upward. This is what you are going through starting from Day 1. As shown in our image below, the top part is the SUCCESS, this is your DESTINATION. There will always by a STARTING POINT and your FINAL DESTINATION. Depending on how you measure your success, the timeline may become long or short. This is where you are going to start. You need to set up a realistic goal on your SUCCESS.
Doing Business is your journey. The more you move forward, the more you get closer to your SUCCESS. Most of the time, people are overwhelmed by their final destiny, but the real essence is in the way you travel along that journey. There is a big GAP between your starting point and your destination. As high as your DREAMS and VISIONS, you can create a segment of that roadmap to your success by doing a consistent task everyday. This will be your daily, weekly, monthly and yearly goals.
Imagine you are in front of a mountain. Looking at it in front view, you will see a very high top (SUCCESS). This point of view an impossible DREAM. Although this may seem very impossible to achieve if you are looking at it this way. There will always be a good way to view things. Seeing it at a different view, we can add a timeline towards that destination.
For Example, you are traveling a 200 km distance, you can now plan for the ways and means you can get there. There are so many different options and each option can give you different solutions and a specific time frame to reach your destination. An option to take a bus, may take you 2 hours, by private car, can be less while riding a bike or walking will take you more time to reach the end.
What is important is that you know what is the level of success you are looking for. Some can be higher than what you want to achieve, and some may be lower. This is where you can check the level of what you want to achieve.
As you go along, that DREAM can change over time and as you learn to develop your process. This will then create a system where you can duplicate so that you can avoid the mistakes in the past. If you are doing it alone, you can learn to transfer the knowledge to people where you build your Team and leverage your accomplishments through the time of other people.
