What Is the Current State of Your Business?
ByI’m going to ask you a few questions, to help to focus you on what is actually happening with your business at the moment.
When I say business, I am referring to anything from which you wish to make a profit – it could be sales, services, health, art, craft, music, coaching – anything at all by which your aim is to make a profit.
The answers are for your eyes only, so be truthful. I know that 5 years ago I would have been embarrassed to answer these questions, even to myself, because I knew that I was living in denial of the reality of how things were – and I didn’t want to face the truth. As the saying goes “The truth will set you free.”
If all is well in your business, you’ll have that confirmed to you. If all is not ok, you’ll have a lot clearer idea of what is happening, and you’ll be able to take action to change things.
So take a deep breath, and answer as best you can.

I am sure that there are some points of interest in that exercise for you. It is one that I like to do from time to time as an inventory of how I am with my business.
