Change. "The
only constant in life is change." said the French classical author, Francois de
la Rochefoucauld.
With the change in the market and the
economy, our business tactics must change as well to be successful. But success won't happen overnight,
says Bernice Ross, Real Estate Coach and Author.
To change your business strategies
takes time and patience.
"Our society promotes the idea of having it all and having it now." says
Ross. "Unfortunately, when it takes
more time than we are willing to spend to get reinforced (i.e. experience
success), we often give up on the new behavior before the full effects
have a chance to take hold."
Ross offers these three
Simple Tips to help you achieve results:
1.
Let go of the idea that change will
take place instantly. The economy didn't go bad overnight. That took a while. Just as it will take a while to turn around,
so does any new strategies you will try in your business.
2.
Keep working at it.
Ross offers the example of the Turkey
Roaster Phenomenon. "Have you ever been the person who had to wash
the turkey roaster at Thanksgiving time?" asks Ross. "It (is) one big mess. In
fact, when you first put it in the water, it's actually a bigger mess than it
was when it was sitting on the counter. If you keep scrubbing away at it,
however, the roaster will soon be clean and sparkling."
3.
Take Small Steps towards the
Goal. It's the process that's important
to focus on. By focusing on the positive
achievements each day, no matter how small, you will be surprised at how
quickly you will achieve your goal.
As Leo Buscaglia
said, "The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing and
becomes nothing." Small changes will help
you achieve your goal to success.
