Do You Have Trouble Sticking To A Plan?

👑

Have you ever created a plan only to start on it and then change it days or weeks later?

And then you find yourself stuck in this deadly loop? changing plans, getting burnt out, no results...

Here's might be what's happening.

Your plan is 1) not really address your core problem and blocker, you're just following some static list of todos which keep you busy but have zero impact on your business. So you get burnt out.

2) The plan is too complex, it has you working on too many things, you're stretched thin, and non of your actions move you closer to gaining mastery in your business.

So then you get tired, open up social media for relief, then you see 3 new #1 tactics that everyone should have in their business.

You get excited!

You create a new plan... you feel good for a moment, yet again it's too complex, and doesn't really address the true blockers in your business.

You start to execute, then the same thing repeats over and over and you never really get traction.

The real solution is to have a far better understanding for what your REAL blocker is. And to create a plan that just solves that in the most simple and direct way.

It's hard because we're told all these things from online experts.

You MUST be doing x, y and z or you'll fail! right? we've all heard it.

I've been victim to it as well.

But context is everything, some of that advise only makes sense to the person giving it. Their situation might be totally different from you. But they don't mention that, so you walk away thinking it applies to you.

And lets also not forget that a lot of the advice is just bad.

So you need to learn to develop an inner strength that can keep you centered. Sure you can get help, but without an inner voice and gut feeling, you'll be a victim to whatever way the wind blows today, or tomorrow.

Once you have a plan (that is simple) don't change course unless you get NEW evidence that tells you that you're on the wrong track. I don't mean a hunch or feeling, I mean REAL evidence.
