Slow Down to Speed Up!
Think about the last time you encountered a roadblock, setback, problem, issue or frustration. It might have been with a customer or with a team member or perhaps even some technology. If you’re like most people I know, you probably jumped right on the issue, wrestled it to the ground and found a solution or fix. It’s a normal reaction for high-performing individuals who consider themselves to be go-getters!
But it’s not always the best approach if you want to produce game-changing results. A “quick fix” might stop the bleeding, but it rarely provides the long-term, best-fit solution.
Here’s Your Net Worth Tip of the Day
Build the discipline to SLOW DOWN in order to SPEED UP! By that I mean take longer to get started so that you can go faster in execution. Rather than diving head-first into solving a big challenge without a plan, it is important to take time to do 3 things:
#1 - Think about your Desired Outcome,
#2 - Decide how to Best Approach the situation, and
#3 - Seek Advice from someone with experience or knowledge that would help.
The next time you run into a difficult situation - in your business or in a significant relationship, or with your children, I want you to apply the “Slow Down to Speed Up” approach.
Don’t react or respond right away. Step away from the keyboard. Put down the phone. Don’t open your mouth. Take time to apply the 3-step process by asking yourself: What is my Desired Outcome? What is the BEST Approach in this situation? Who can I talk to who would have dealt with a similar situation before?
Do this and your business, your life and your relationships will be enriched!
