Small business owners come in several shapes and sizes.
Some are solo-preneurs; others have a professional
practice with five employees. Yet, others have fifty
employees, sell a single product and make millions.
What many of these business owners have in common
is that once upon a time they had a dream. For some of
them, their dream was never realized, at least not in
the way they wanted.
Why wasn't it realized, you wonder.
It might be that their business is not real. A bold
statement but one you must ask if you want
to be successful.
Here is an opportunity to ask the question, "Is my
business for real?" If your business is not as satisfying
as you want it to be, take a moment, sit down and
think before you respond to any of the questions.
The "Is Your Business for Real?" Quiz
Answer Yes or No to the questions below.
1. _____ Do you own a real business or are you just
working for a paycheck?
2. _____ Does your business provide you with
financial freedom?
3. _____ Are you in charge of your business?
4. _____ Do you have all the clients you want?
5. _____ Are they the right clients for you?
6. _____ Are you excited each and every day?
7. _____ Is your cash flow what you want?
8. _____ Does your business bring you joy?
9. _____ Are you contributing at the highest level?
10. _____ Are you totally satisfied?
11. _____ Do you have a vision for your business?
12. _____ Did you answer these questions truthfully?
Now what? If you answered Yes! to more questions than
you answered No, then having a Vision with a Capital V™
may be an added value to your business success. If you
answered No! to any of the above questions, get out your
note pad and start taking action.
My message about having a really big Vision is different
in that if you have a Vision With a Capital V, you will:
* Focus on the inner you and your business that
helps to prevent overwhelm, loneliness and insecurity.
* Clearly define who you really are, the service that
you truly provide, as well as the people you want
in your life.
* Help yourself eliminate anything standing in the way
of attracting the design for your perfect life and business.
* Be guided to determine the qualities, values and
principles required for your Vision.
* Be directed you to create your Vision with a Capital V™
that inspires and motivates you.
* Assist you with supportive methods for defining
and attracting what you want.
* Provide you with insights, tools and strategies to
keep your vision alive.
If you want clarity of intention as well as the ability to
refocus your business and your life, it is time to act.
Review your life purpose, your business purpose to
see if they are in alignment. If not, reevaluate how you
want your business to be. Maybe you just need a bigger
and better vision to align your life with. Do it now. Joanne Victoria, 25-year Vision and Business Coach works
with entrepreneurs and solo professionals to build
successful lives and businesses by helping them achieve
more of what they really want. Author of: Lighting Your
Path! How To Create the Life You Want and Vision With
a Capital V - Create the Business of Your Dreams.
