BRX Pro Tip: Incremental Success
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome back to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton and Lee Kantor here with you. You know, Lee, sometimes success can sort of sneak up on you. Talk a little bit about looking out for identifying, or maybe even building, systems and processes for creating incremental success.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:21] Yeah. I think this is one of the things that when you’re doing your work and your heads down every day. You’re doing the work and you don’t realize how far you’ve come. You don’t really appreciate all that you have. And you’re focused on maybe the things you don’t have. And you’re not really understanding the value that you’ve been providing and the progress that you’ve made.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:45] So, I think that for most people, when you work really hard for a decent amount of time, you’ll get incrementally better and you’re not going to notice it. But what you’ll notice down the road is, all of a sudden, you’re having all this good fortune and all these opportunities are coming your way. And it’s hard for you to put your finger on it because it isn’t obvious. And I think what’s happening is that, now, you’re getting some of the benefits of all that compounding that we’ve talked about in the past. That, all that work, all those relationships you’ve helped, all the folks that you’ve kind of served are now kind of looking out for you. And, now, you’re starting to see the fruits of your labor.
Lee Kantor: [00:01:25] So, I think it’s important to periodically kind of assess where you’re at, and to take a snapshot, and to kind of compare where you are today versus where you were a quarter ago, or a year ago, or five years ago. Because you don’t see it while you’re doing it, but it’s happening in the background. It’s happening. And all those relationships, all those people out there that you’ve helped are looking to help you. And then, some of that stuff’s going to come your way down the road. So, just keep grinding and good things will happen.
