Perspective: The Secret of Small Business Improvement

Follow Dave on LinkedIn

Imagine running and then…SMACK, hitting a brick wall. Painful, right? Now, do you blame that wall for being there or yourself for running into it? Truth be told, it doesn’t matter so long as you get around, over, under, or bulldoze through that darned wall!

All small business owners contend with problems, both internal and external. Identifying the cause of such issues is natural. In fact, it’s healthy. Yet, the way most people look at problems is, in fact, part of the problem itself!

How do we look at problems the right way…the way that leads to solutions? Watch my short video and find out!

Action Steps:

  1. Write down one thing you’d like to see change in your business.
  2. Ask yourself, is this problem Internal-focused, External-focused, or Knowledge-focused?
  3. Comment below and tell us how YOU reframed your problem as Knowledge-focused.

Principles:

  1. Focusing on one issue at a time provides direction.
  2. The way in which we view a problem will determine our ability to resolve it.
  3. All Internal-focused or External-focused problems are really Knowledge-focused problems in disguise.
