If you who have been part of the Business HorsePower herd for a while you will know that I love learning and acquiring new knowledge. I am always looking for ways to improve myself and the information and services that I share with you, my valued clients.
That is why I have just come back from a four day retreat where I have been developing my speaking skills and learning new strategies to help grow and develop my business. It was a really intense four day experience where I learnt loads. In fact I have come away with nearly an entire notebook full of new information and ideas that I can implement in my business.
Now learning and gathering information is great but here’s the rub. That is not enough. The knowledge and information I have learnt is only of any good if I take action and implement it in my business. And that’s the irony of going on courses. Not only do you have to take time out of your business to go on them, you then need to schedule time when you get back to the office to implement and put all those ideas into action. And if you fail to take action then you have just wasted valuable, time, energy and money.
I will admit to being guilty and oftentimes not implementing what I have learnt, but when you take action, that is when the rubber hits the road and real change and transformation happens. Your business and life will never change by just learning about something. They only change when you take action. And speed is your friend here. The sooner you take action and start implementing what you have learnt, the sooner you will get results.
So have you been implementing all the ideas that I have been sharing with you this year about how to be more productive in order to achieve your goals? If not I suggest you go back and read some of the previous editions of Wednesday Wisdom and start taking small steps now to implement all that I have been sharing.
Taking action is something that I did earlier this year when I was presented with the opportunity to be part of the Purpose, Passion, Profit Summit. And today is the day that you can hear my interview with Helen Vandenburghe on how Entrepreneurial Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is impacting the results you are getting in your business. If you haven’t already signed up to the summit you can do so here. I am joined by over 30 other amazing women who have all been sharing great, actionable content on how to get into flow and grow your business. You won’t want to miss this. Grab a pen, listen to the recording, make notes and then take action. Start now by registering for the summit if you have not already done so. You’ll be glad you did
