BRX Pro Tip: Trust the Process
Stone Payton: And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton and Lee Kantor here with you. Lee, this is your mantra, I’ve said at a time or two over the last 18 years of doing this work, trust the process.
Lee Kantor: Yeah. I think that a lot of times people get this kind of shiny object kind of syndrome where they’re just anything new is the best thing in the world and I should do that. You have to understand that everything starts as chaos in some form or fashion, but you have to have a true north and you have to understand what it is you’re trying to achieve and what outcome you desire.
Lee Kantor: And, once you do that and you put a process in place, then you have to kind of trust that process until you have a reason to stop trusting it. And you have to do the work every day. You have to grind. You have to put one foot in front of the other over and over and over. You have to improve a little bit each day over and over and over and compound all of that knowledge and wisdom and effort over time. Then, hopefully, at the end of the day, you will get to where you’re trying to go. And, I’m not saying to never be open to these serendipitous miracles that occur along the way. You should kind of consider them. And to steal from a previous pro tip, if it’s not a hell yeah, then it should be a no, but you should be open to it.
Lee Kantor: And then, at the end of the day, remember that the journey really is the prize. You know, you have in your head a picture of where you’d like to go, and that’s fantastic and I hope you get there. But remember that the journey is really what you’re going to remember, and that is the impact you’re going to be making every single day that you’re doing the work. So trust the process. It’ll pay off one way or another in the long run.
