[VIDEO] Duncan Nugget® #149: The Aspects Of What You Expect To Accomplish
Recently, a friend of mine gave up on his business.
“Al, I wasn’t prepared for the financial aspect of running a business.”
He’s not alone. Many people fail to reach their goals because they lack understanding about aspects of what they are trying to accomplish.
Plenty of great musicians have been taken advantage of because they didn’t understand the business aspect of the industry. There are leaders who expect to be successful, but become demotivated because they weren’t prepared for challenging aspects of leadership.
Regardless of what you expect, ask yourself questions like: What do I have to sacrifice? Time? Money? What problems could arise? What additional knowledge and resources do I need?
Answers to those types of questions will help you to master the aspects of what you expect to accomplish.
Million-Dollar Question:
How well are you prepared for the various aspects of what you expect to accomplish?
