Hammer & Grind : Built For Contractors

EP33: 2 Steps Forward, 1 Step Back


Listen Later

Just about everyone can relate to this phrase, and while it does technically imply growth, it’s something people say when they’re upset and frustrated about how things are going. But is that the right mindset?

In this episode, we talk about…

  • How the original intent of the phrase “2 steps forward, 1 step back” was positive - because it ultimately means that your needle is moving forward.
  • How it’s natural for your business to have ups and downs and why you might need to adjust your mindset to cope with that reality.
  • How sometimes that step back can lead to more steps forward down the road, so you need to have perspective on the big picture.
  • Examples of when the guys have had to cope with steps back in their business and how they’ve done it.
  • Why you need to own and recognize when that step back was due to your actions - a victim mentality will not help your business.
  • Why even failure can mean growth and benefits - “fail forward.”
  • How groups and mentorships can help you develop a better mindset around this topic.
