Simple scale, complex fails.
Has a catchy ring to it, right.
And, a whole lotta truth.
Here’s how I know.
[Read the full blog post here].
As a person, I am naturally someone that tends to overcomplicate things.
Give me a task to complete, and I will somehow singlehandedly find the most complex, convoluted way of completing it.
Back in my corporate days, I worked as a Marketing Manager.
Working closely alongside me was our PR Manager – who was the exact vision of what you would expect a PR Manager to be.
Vibrant, sociable, vivacious.
And, light on detail.
Whenever we were given a project to work on, she and I would approach things so very differently.
I always admired her approach:
Pick up the phone, get it done, smiling all the way.
Meanwhile? I would sit at my desk for hours upon hours, writing up complex plans and generally just overcomplicating things.
Of course, both were strengths in a way – and our very different approaches complimented each other.
When I started my business, though?
I noticed myself taking that same tendency to complicate things into it.
And, let me tell you:
THAT did not serve me well – until, it did.
In many ways, it was my tendency to overcomplicate things that resulted in the business I have today.
I have spent many years learning the art of simplicity.
As a result?
I create online courses sharing the same simple strategies I created for MYSELF to eliminate my tendency to overcomplicate.
Of course, old habits die hard, and the truth is?
That still every day I have FIGHT MYSELF not to overcomplicate my business.
