You can wake up 2,3, or 5 years down the line and wonder what has happened and where the time went. This is particularly common to driven personalities and entrepreneurs who are immersed in their work, have a strong inner compass, determined action takers and some might say obsessed.

 

Neil explains an easy method for how you can avoid this from happening.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Check your progress every couple of months. A good way to do this is to have accountability days every month to check the performance of the business and work on the next acquisition or deal.
• Spend the whole of that day examining your business – get away from your desk and turn the phone off. If it’s urgent they’ll call back
• Make a date with yourself to do this regularly – in your diary – don’t let anything shunt it off your schedule, because it matters too much to let it slide.
• When you’ve done your reflection analysis – make your plans to implement what you noticed about your business.
• Do it, and see how you get on – I’m pretty certain that you’ll have an “A-ha!” moment or six when you do the work and get honest with yourself – I know I did!

BEST MOMENTS

‘Planning and reflection works’

‘Bottom line is that this stuff works.’
