a long time ago, a participant in one of my classes passed a note saying, \u201cthe only people who like change are babies.\u201d i believe everyone will agree that change is not easy until you develop a skill to embrace it.<\/p>\n

here are five quick questions for your consideration:<\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

1. how open-minded are you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

being skeptical can slow change. as our trust in each other declines, some of us have gotten so skeptical that we\u2019re unwilling to try anything, even as the world changes around us.<\/p>\n

take an objective look at how skeptical you are of new things, and decide if you need to make any adjustments. an open mind willing to learn and admit that they don\u2019t know everything will succeed in this first step of change and implementation.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0how much time do you have? \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

it\u2019s easy to make excuses about not having time, but there is no such thing as a time problem. it\u2019s only a prioritization problem or a delegation problem. we all have 24\/7, and some of us are living the life of our dreams while others are constantly complaining about their circumstances.<\/p>\n

carve out at least one hour a week to implement changes in your business and take control, no matter your \u201ccircumstances\u201d are.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0how can you reduce your risk?<\/strong><\/p>\n

our subconscious is always telling us how risky change is. those thoughts in our heads that keep us small are there to keep us safe and have some measure of truth to them. but we have to fight the thoughts in our heads in order to make any progress.<\/p>\n

to appease your subconscious, take baby steps when making changes to reduce your risk. if you make a price change, do it on one client first. if you roll out a new tool, test it thoroughly first. if you feel like you need some new skills, invest in yourself and sign up for the class.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0how can you reward yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n

when you make progress, celebrate. this will help to reinforce in your brain that change is good.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0how open to feedback are you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

not everything we try works out perfectly. that\u2019s when we need to be open to taking feedback and making corrections. it can be hard on the ego to take feedback, but the person who learns how to be receptive will reap the benefits.<\/p>\n

ask yourself these five questions to discover where you can clear any blocks to implement all the good ideas you come across in your business.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
