Are You Facing Adversity?

Lots of people are facing challenges today. Some of these are financial, and some are managerial. They are asking what they can do & why things do not work – they used to. The challenges of these times are not for the faint of heart.

However, it is time to grasp reality and realize that we are not going back to the “old normal…” On the contrary, things are changing so fast, especially with the recent introduction of Ai, we must learn to respond & act more quickly. As I recall when I became a green belt in Taekwondo in the early 1980’s and started training with black belts, my instructor yelled, “Mr. Ellsworth, you are in with the big boys now. You must kick faster!”

It turned out that this was good advice. The same applies to us today. There is no time to meander. As they said in Alice in Wonderland, “If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there.” However, you are better than that. You do know where you want to go. You must simply define it.

Determine what your desired destination will be, because the prize ultimately goes to “the decided.” Take the following steps:

• Define your goal clearly in your mind & write it down.
• Now the fun begins – you will face obstacles. My Business Coach Dan Sullivan says these are the raw material for your success. Identify them and discuss them with your Team.
• Determine how you can overcome them. Again, outline these steps with your Team.
• Establish dates for their completion.
• Go forward, adjust course if necessary & win!
