On this week’s episode of InFLOW, Michelle is talking about a topic she’s been practicing a lot of discipline in recently: avoiding shiny object syndrome.
Oftentimes, as entrepreneurs, we get bored quickly and want to move on instead of really practicing our craft and improving -- even though practice is the only way to obtain mastery. It’s in our nature to be curious and to want to start new things. While that inclination is part of why we bring such value to the marketplace, it can also be the biggest cause of our demise.
If you are going to build a business that brings in consistent, predictable revenue, you need to invest in and commit to one thing and iterate and tweak that one thing, over and over. That may not be nearly as exciting as jumping into something new, but it’s the only way to truly distinguish yourself and build something of real depth and substance.
Putting your blinders on and staying focused is NOT easy. It requires being okay with repetition … but it’s the key to real growth.
