Just Stop...

This week, a colleague of mine sent me a message asking if I was okay.
They were concerned because they had not seen me in and around LinkedIn for a while.
That's true. I have not been very active on LinkedIn recently.
I have not sent my regular newsletters (someone else asked me where the last one was this week).
This month I have stepped back from my social media posting to work ON my business a little bit.
I've been busy working on new ideas and new opportunities for next year.
A lot of those I am quite excited about, and I'll talk about them in future newsletters.
Interestingly, I've had a couple of conversations with clients who have not been very well, and they have had to step back a little bit from the business to recover.
What they found is the world didn't end (love it when people realise that).
The business carried on and everything was okay.
They could take the time to look after themselves.
It was a great measure of how far they had come in their business growth.
Are you able to do this in your business.?
I always advise "health before wealth" so encourage people to look after themselves so they can be more effective in their businesses.?
If they don’t, they will find they don’t have a choice….and it is very difficult to run a business from or hospital.
It is good to stop.
Step back from the doing.
From being IN the business.
Stepping back is a good way of seeing where you are.?
Understand what you've accomplished.
How you've done it.
Who helped you??
What sort of things have you learnt and how have you, as a person, developed?
We are coming now in December (where did the year go).
Christmas is here…I know as the neighbours put up their Christmas lights two weeks ago.
So, I encourage you during the break to stop and look back at what you have accomplished.?
And celebrate.
Then figure out what you want to accomplish next year for you, your business and your life.

Think how are you going to do that?
Who's going to help you?
What difference would that make to you if you achieved it?
If you want any help on this, I have a free Vision Worksheet with some very pertinent questions that can get you some clarity around your future success.
Just message me on LinkedIn and I'll send you a copy.
I am also always happy to have a chat about this as well.
This break Just Stop.
See where you are and make sure you're going in the right direction, building the business that you want in 2024.
Will it give you the lifestyle that you want to achieve?
Stay safe and warm this week and here's to all your successes.
