To be or not to be
December comes with mixed emotions. Some are tired from the hard work of the year 2022 and are looking forward to the holidays so that they can find time to relax and hopefully reflect. Some are excited because when they look at their results from their business they multiplied in every way. For some they are anxious on whether the next year 2023 will be better than 2022. Some are finding comfort in the excuses they have used to justify the results they got. As much as December is a month of reflecting for many I believe for one to be or not to be there are 5 C’s one has to work on to excel in 2023 despite the results attained in 2022.
Confidence
In business there are a lot of incidences that can deflate or inflate one’s confidence. Like a car that needs refuelling to keep moving so are human beings. One needs to continually work on their confidence as they grow with their business. Cicero states, “ If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started.” To be or not to be in 2023 be committed to daily refuel your confidence tank.
Connections
Who you associate with in business determines how far you achieve. Connections can open doors that one would never imagine. You will need one person to mention your name to their connection who is strategically positioned to help you to go to the next level. In 2023 which connections do you need to add to your list or delete for you to be or not to be.
Competence
Continuous development is not an option but a must if you need to achieve your full potential in 2023.Warren Buffet stated,” Everybody’s got a different circle of competence. The important thing is not how big the circle is. The important thing is staying inside the circle.” To grow in your business in 2023 Brian Tracey states, “The future belongs to the competent. Get good, get better and be the best.” 2023 be the best at that which you are gifted in.
Character
Have you ever been asked to pay for a bribe for a very lucrative business deal? You said no but remained with no peace simply because you were sad that the only thing that came between you and the success was the bribe. Values will let you know what to say yes and no to. What are you willing to let go in 2022 that will build your character to get better results in 2023?
Commitment
To be or not to be will be determined by the level of commitment to developing your confidence, connections, competence and character. As we embrace the new year our commitment to success will help us in pursuing every dream to achieve success in our business ventures.
