Flicking the Switch

Garrett and Matt use today's episode as an opportunity to shine a light on the importance of reviewing and updating business plans as a way to ensure progress and make necessary adjustments. They also review the potential for getting caught up in daily tasks and neglecting long-term goals and suggest using the metaphor of "flicking the light switch" to quickly check in on progress and adjust course as necessary.

Our hosts go on to stress the importance of having a clear sense of direction in business and explain the role of business plans and mission statements in achieving this. The value of having both internal and external mission statements is also explored. Setting quarterly goals and the role of business plans and mission statements in achieving these goals round out this timely episode as we all embark on this new year together.

Quotes:

"If you blink, it's going to be 2024, and we're going to sit back and go like,'Whoa, what happened at that time?'"

"And so what we do is we just turn the light switch on for a second, and we see where we're at."

"It's easy to fill it with realtor stuff and feel successful at the end of the day and feel successful at the end of the week doing realtor stuff. And then you get to the end of the year and you're like, 'Wow, that wasn't the year that I intended.'"

"The plan could be doing the Ninja Nine, and you need to then flick the light switch on to see, 'Hey, am I doing the Ninja Nine?'"

"Flipping the light switch on during your planning session each week, reviewing what your quarterly goals are, helping you understand, 'Hey, am I set up to complete that pre-listing packet project that I wanted to have done by the end of the first quarter?'"
