BRX Pro Tip: Ask Yourself the Right Questions
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome back to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton and Lee Kantor here with you. Lee, it’s often been said that the answers are in the questions, but we got to ask ourselves the right questions.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:14] Right. A lot of times when you’re in business, you’re just heads down doing the work and you’re focusing in the thing that’s right in front of you. Or maybe there’s a crisis that’s right in front of you that you have to deal within triage. But periodically, it’s important to sit back and just think about what you’ve got going on and ask yourself some of the bigger questions. Some questions to consider asking yourself are, are you controlling what you can control? A lot of times people get distracted and frustrated by things they can’t control. And it’s important to be able to discern what it is that you have control over and what you don’t.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:50] Like in our business, we can control inviting more guests. We can control connecting more people together. We can control following up with more prospects. But we can’t control the results and we can’t control other people’s actions. So, if you’re spending more time doing activities that lead to positive results, then you have a greater probability of achieving the results you’re looking for. Now, it may take longer than you would like, but we believe that consistently kind of doing this positive action over time compounds towards a successful outcome. And if you do that, you’re going to win. But it’s important to just take some sort of actions. Stone, you mentioned that lately you’ve been kind of putting five boxes and checking them off, taking that action every day over time compounds.
