The 7 Savage Sins of Small Business and Why Entrepreneurs Are Addicted To Them
— by James C. Tanner
Talent is never enough. While each and every one of us is born with talents, we fool only ourselves if we buy into the lie which states that our talents are all we need to succeed in life.
Our natural gifting, our talents, must marry with preparation before success can be earned, and preparation is a series of processes. If we are going to prepare for tomorrow, then we must embrace one single truth – tomorrow starts with us making the right choices and right use of today.
“The 7 Savage Sins of Small Business…and Why Entrepreneurs are addicted to Them” touches on seven of the most common areas where young and old, new or experienced entrepreneurs, as well as small and medium size business managers get it all wrong.
Wisdom dictates that if we take time to prepare today, then no time will be wasted repairing tomorrow.
A good leader knows that no matter how good the outcome, if something is being done the same way over and over again, then something is terribly wrong. Growth requires change, and every single performance can be improved upon. Growing forward in life is all about positive change. Positive change isn’t always easy change, as change pushes us out of our comfort zones.
Growing forward in life as a small business owner or entrepreneur is all about embracing change that matures us into something better, but we cannot grow if we do not choose to see and address what is holding us back.
