If you think you’re going to build a successful company overnight, you’re setting yourself up for a big let down. If you think you’re going to do it in a year, you are again setting yourself up for a big let down. Think realistic. Most goals take time to achieve.Why not make a 5 year plan outlining small goals that will lead to your big goals? Five years is not a long time at all, and is a very realistic time-frame to achieve what it is that you want.
Many are okay with the idea of taking 4 years to earn a high school diploma, and another 4 years to earn a college degree. But they feel that 4-5 years to build their company is just too long too wait.
The point is to aim high, but be reasonable about how high you are aiming. It wouldn't make much sense for a high school bound student to have the goal of earning a diploma in one year. This is a 4-year process.
Likewise, building a company is a process.
You should set high standards, and you should challenge yourself to do the unthinkable. However, setting unachievable goals will only discourage you.
When you want to accomplish something, don't ignore the odds that you're up against. Rather, consider them and realize that you can beat these odds within reasonable standards - keeping in mind that you are not superhuman.
Building a successful business is a process that requires a lot of time and energy. How high you are aiming should be based on a realistic timeline.
Besides, doing too much at once can backfire on you. Yes, growing too fast can be a bad thing.
Greetings to all who happen upon this message.
ReplyDeleteWe are the Incorporated version of an enterprise called The Black Business Owners Network. We are coming together and designing an infrastructure designed to pool our monies and resources together to create wealth for us all. We are a group of hard working entrepreneurs which are very passionate about what we do. We are one of the many honest groups that are striving to be an economic solution to all our businesses needs and individuals who lack the finances needed to ensure that they can achieve the proper education, the proper health care, house payments needs, true help, and real time solutions to real life problems.
These solutions are offered in order to make life smoother for our people, for our group members and non members, while simultaneously lifting up heads in order to let OUR people see real live help coming through the door; We are striving to reach more than 30,000 people almost immediately, and have them all welcome one person each to join us on our journey. We hope to destroy the "I CAN'T because of no money" excuse, and to hand them a ladder in order to lift them up to BBON, Inc., and sharpen them enough to represent us in the future. We are a growing group of TRYING individuals.
Let's see if the following definition of TRYING applies to you. the term "trying" means, those individuals who take the hard ships of every day life, coupled with work, raising their kids, paying bills, enduring stress, traveling to meet clients, working on business plans, taking care of home, and keeping it safe, do all of these things and more while attending school to make it all happen. It's sad that corporate America refuses to sensationalize all our TRYING efforts, because they aren't willing to pay top dollar for them. If you are A trying individual, then welcome aboard our vessel of hope, because your efforts will be sensationalized and compensated for here!
