Take a Step Back and Assess
In business, you often have to build the road as you go. We’ve all heard the old saying “You (he, she, they) can’t see the forest through the trees”. My friend and I use to have the privilege in taking the long way over the mountain range between Provo and Salt Lake City, Utah. Then, we were treated to what may be the most beautiful birch forest in the world. In fact, the white birches were everywhere. For us, it was a simple drive over the only road available in the area. Though, 100 years ago we would have been screwed. There is something disorienting about those beautiful white trees. Without the slim road in the middle of the mountain range, it would have been very easy to get very lost.
How Do You Build the Road for Your Business?
Building this road won’t be easy. There may be many directions you could go and none of them explicitly say “State Road 92”. In comparison to the road my friend and I traveled, to indicate you are moving in the correct direction.
The key to getting into and sustaining the right course within business is maintaining perspective on the situation. Often, sales strategy, CRM, or content marketing projects can seem like a difficult hike through a confusing forest. Fortunately, you have the option of working with people who know where the road leads. They can help you reach your destination. It’s reassuring to know you don’t have to go alone. All in all, you can reach out for guidance along the way.
