BUSINESS LESSONS FROM MY KIDS SPORTING EVENT

Few weeks ago, my kids had their inter house sports event. After weeks of practice we were all looking forward to the event. At least no more heavily soiled sports wear and socks coming home from school.

The pupils where in four different houses represented with Blue, Yellow, Green and red; they sat according to their various house colours. – Effective business branding.

During the event I noticed that the kids sat with their team members and did not mingle much with their friends or siblings in others houses. They were focused on their various events. How focused are you are you in your business?

It was clear to them that this was the event not the usual rehearsal. You could see anticipation on their faces. Do you have clarity of purpose in your business?
Everyone was determined to win their event.
At least 80% of the kids did not cling to their parents, they were happy to be with their friends and house mates.
This whole event can be related to your business. How do you treat your business? How focused are you? Are you able to separate friends and family from your business? Or are you like the kids whose main objective at the event was participating and winning.

Do you still see your business as a dress rehearsal, waiting for when it will finally take off? Well, the business has started and you have to be clear on where you want to take your business to and follow through with it.
Be determined to succeed in your business.
