Earlier this week, we had our first board of directors meeting for September 2023 – a remarkable experience.
Gathering with fellow business owners and collectively reviewing our businesses provided valuable insights. We learned, reinforced key concepts, and even explored some new ideas, even if we decided not to pursue them.
What struck me the most was the profound impact of the preparation work we all had to undertake before the event. Many board members expressed that this prep work rekindled their enthusiasm for their businesses, even those with over two decades of experience.
So, here’s the takeaway: Elevate your game.
No, I’m not here to shout “work harder” or “do more.” Instead, I want to gently remind you that the most significant way to improve your results, grow your business, and enjoy the journey more is by dedicating more time to thoughtful contemplation and less time rushing around aimlessly.
Another crucial lesson I gleaned was that we weren’t ready for this opportunity until now. It required a series of decisions and actions to prepare, but the results have been astonishing.
Perhaps, some of you are also poised for a similar experience. If you’re curious about what it could be like, don’t hesitate to reach out.
