Wait for the answer.
Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.
I'm a Business investor, we talk on this show about things that affect business people. So whether you own a business, whether you are the executive and in charge of a business, we like to see things from that perspective and kind of talk about the issues that you deal with.
What are some shortcuts?
What are some tactics, strategies and principles that you could put into play right away in your business?
This is a situation that has been a long time coming for me. And I've been getting bits and pieces of this all for really the last 12 months, 12 to 18 months?
I've been waiting on a very specific answer about a problem that I've been having in one of my businesses, it's one of my favorite ones.
I wasn't quite sure what to do and I had a huge piece of that answer come to me today in the form of a book that I was reading, which I would have never guessed. Out of all the books that are out there, that would be this book that would be helpful to me.
I'll tell you, maybe we'll talk about that tomorrow, or in a future episode, what book that is and give you a little book review.
I'm waiting for my hard copy to come because I listened to the audio already. And so I'm really jazzed about it. It was, it's been one of the best books I've read in the last couple of years.
Actually, some of the best books that I've read recently, have all been about this same subject matter. And these things have just started coming to me. Really not.
Not through any fault of my own but I wanted to talk about this.
This is a scenario that I hear I hear from a lot of different people, but specifically about business people they'll say this in conversation, but it never gets brought up enough in terms of the scenario that we almost all go through.
This is it, we hit a problem, we hit a wall, we hit a plateau, we hit something with our business, and with and with how we're handling and how we're thinking about it.
When you reach that point, what do you do?
Really, you just have to wave your hands up in the air and say, I don't know what the next step is. I don't know how to fix this. But I still have ideas on things to try.
We're going to keep trying things but I'm going to wait for the answer.
There are a lot of different ways that answers come to you. Sometimes it just comes in the middle of the day while you're doing something else.
Sometimes it can be while you're working with your hands or something. I've heard that from a lot of people if they're working if they've got themselves engaged physically in something, that's when the answers come to them.
Other people say it's when they take a shower when they're taking a shower on a daily basis, the answers just pop into their head, other people to first thing when they wake up in the morning or in the middle of the night, they get an answer.
They have to make sure they write it down so they don't forget it.
Sometimes it comes in very specific forms. Sometimes it comes in the form of conversation, you're talking to someone. So it could be someone that has nothing to do with business.
This could be a business question you have on your mind but something they say opens up...
