EP95: New Year Hope
Welcome my friends…
We made it out of 2022, and into 2023.
Whew…
Let's talk about what needs to happen in 2023, to overcome the negativity of the last few years.
While we may not like it, we do need to embrace the idea that the world is still changing all around us.
We keep HOPING that all the negative changes that were brought to us would somehow re-correct themselves.
How has your experience been?
Are you...
Still waiting for the…
...good ole days?
Or
Are you ready to take charge of your business…
...once and for all?
.
.
.
The way I see it.
We can either learn from our past…
Or suffer because of it.
I say we should learn from it.
The people you serve in your business are looking to you to be the best you can be.
They listen to you.
They read your content.
They click on your links.
They care about your causes too.
And they want you to do well in 2023.
So be the business person that follows through.
Be the business that shows your customers and followers that you can do better.
Not because times were tough before, and they're going to be better moving forward.
No, nothing like that.
They WILL continue to be tough.
Be better, because you demonstrate your strength through the service you provide to your people.
Through the way, you communicate with them.
How you make them feel.
It is not easy being a business owner during these times.
Prices for things are still at all-time highs.
Our free time keeps getting shorter.
And those solopreneurs that wear all the hats and do all the work…
Don't forget that your hard work will one day soon be fruitful.
This year…
Yes, this year…
...can be the year, in which you get to see the fruits of your labor blossom.
All the hard work you do day in and day out…
Week in and week out…
Will be worth it.
It boils down to believing in yourself.
You - having faith in your strengths.
And let go of the negativity.
Do any of us truly know what 2023 will bring to each one of us?
Of course not.
But we CAN believe in ourselves.
We can believe…
...that we are enough.
...that we help others.
...that we practice what we preach.
...that we are dependable.
...that we are capable of so much more.
So, this week, and each week going forward, keep doing those things that keep the boat going faster. [those things that make everything work better]
If there is something that does not accomplish that goal, we need to re-evaluate why we do it.
See if it can be eliminated, or minimized to allow you to focus on what is important for your business, your customers, and your family.
Doing these things will take you along the correct course your business needs to move along.
So, good riddance to 2022.
Welcome, 2023…
And all the hope of a better tomorrow.
