Do you want to have a multi-million dollar business but you are still making decisions based on your six-figure business? That is what I see with a lot of my clients. They make decisions based on where they are right now and what has happened in the past. But, the truth is that the strategies that got you to 6 figures are not the same as the ones that will get you to 7 and 8 figures.
So, you have to play up a few levels by making decisions and implementing strategies that are a few levels higher. You have to aim very high to be able to achieve very high – and bigger – results!
For instance, one of my clients was always in baby step mode. She took the step that logically came next but that never gave her a huge payoff. She was frustrated that her growth was taking sooooo long. When I challenged her to think a few levels bigger and to try out some strategies that were a bit scary for her, she had a huge a-ha that allowed her to go from 300 thousand dollars per year into the multi-millions. Most of the time, achieving your goals just simply means facing your fears and trying out new things.
Even if you are not there yet, playing the game with that bigger outcome in mind causes you to make much better decisions for your resources today. That is part of the CEO (Chief Entrepreneurial Officer) mindset.
What was the most “up leveling” moment in your business that allowed you to have a huge breakthrough? What have you been doing lately that you really liked and, in turn, you were able to be productive in and at the same time, you were able to enjoy all you want? What was the one thing or the things that you think were hindering you to do the things that you have always loved doing?
Again, let me reiterate the questions that I have asked you in the first strategy you would be needing, that is, Consistency.
What decision have you made about failing? What about building an empire? Or making a bunch of money? Have you decided these things are good – or bad? If you are unsure about the decisions you have made about those issues, give yourself some time to review.
Now is the time to give yourself a review. Hope I was able to help you do it.
