Power Of Building An Opportunity
Weve heard it everywhere. The recent upset in the economy has created the perfect environment in which entrepreneurs can thrive. But, be that as it may, that doesnt change the fact that theres always been entrepreneursIm proud to say Ive helped many over the last 30-plus years.
And, over the years, Ive been asked the same question countless times: There are too many opportunities out therehow do I choose just one? And really, who hasnt been so inundated with information and ideas that theyve just frozen and done nothing, like a deer in headlights, rather than moving forward on even one of them?
Its something Ive talked about it in my book E-Myth Mastery: The Seven Essential Disciplines for Building a World-Class Business, and I call this syndrome the Reluctant Entrepreneur. I call it that because I realized that these Reluctant Entrepreneurs are actually asking the wrong question.
Being overwhelmed with potential opportunities is not whats actually stopping these people from action. Not at all. So what is it? It had come to me like a slap in the face, especially after my years of working with small business owners: being overwhelmed by opportunities is just distracting them from the terror of actually dealing with the opportunity already sitting on your doorstep. Theyve already done the hard work of building their business and creating a turnkey operating system, so why arent they growing?
So now we get to the right question: why have they lost their vision of growth? And the key to the answer lies in the question itself: loss. Now that theyve created a successful business, why would they risk losing it by sailing into uncharted waters?
What they dont realize is that their business, because theyve built it so well, is poised to grow. Yet the fear of loss has extinguished their ability to see thattheir vision of growth terminated at their own hand.
But my next question is: why did you do all that work if you didnt want to see growth? Arent you ready to reap all the benefits of the next exciting stage of your business?
I want to help you transform your perception, change seeing fear to seeing opportunity. If you realize the power of building one thing successfully, then youll see how easy it is to build ten more. Will you let me help you? Will you let me expand your perception, your growth, your potential? Come dream with me. Lets make it happen.
