On a recent 22 mile bicycle ride with Matt, I pondered how riding a bicycle is like building a business. Here is an inside view of my thoughts on this topic. Notice how they may relate to your journey.
- While grinding up a hill in the wrong gear, I struggle. When I change gears, all of a sudden, things are easier.
- As hard as it is to make it up that hill, it’s so fun to enjoy the downhill momentum.
- Just before I reach the top of the hill, I often think I cannot make it.
- When I shift my thoughts, to knowing I can and ease into a few more peddle strokes, I’m there before I know it and satisfied with my efforts.
- Taking a break to enjoy the view is very refreshing to the body and spirit.
- Music enhances the entire experience.
As you build your business, you’ll have your ups and downs. You will enjoy the journey when you find the right gears (people, systems and tools) to help you up the hill and acknowledge yourself for your accomplishments along the way. Use the power of your mind to keep you moving forward and turn the volume up on all things good.
