Small Business Minute #30- Want To Get Better? Work At It!


I regularly tell business owners that you don’t have to be an expert in every area of your business, but you have to good enough at everything until you can afford to hire someone who is better than you in a specific discipline.
This is pretty simple advice but it can be challenging for the entrepreneur because they don’t know where to begin. As humans, we tend to gravitate towards the things we like or good at and avoid those things we don’t understand.
“learning anything new can be tedious”
Chances are you got good at something because you spent time doing it and eventually became proficient at it. Same applies to learning anything new, you must work at it. Of course, learning anything new can be tedious, but the more information we consume on the subject, the easier it becomes. Before you know it you start to become confident in your newly acquired skill set.
“look in the direction that you want to go”
If you have ever taken motorcycle training, one of the very first things they teach you is to look in the direction that you want to go. This is especially useful when you encounter a rock or pothole. If you focus your gaze on the obstacle you’re trying to avoid, that’s exactly where you’ll go. So to avoid the potentially damaging encounter you must train yourself to look away from it in order to avoid it.
