EPISODE IN BRIEF

Welcome! Nick and Chris reflect on the year that was as we wind down our businesses for the holiday period.

The Upcoach masters share their most powerful - and surprising – insights from the past 12 months. Much of the year was far from easy for small to medium-sized businesses.

Today’s episode of Coaching Conversations is choc-full of golden takeaways; a reminder of why we do what we do – and how we can continue to challenge our mindset so our businesses may grow in 2023….

Time Code/Show Notes

0.26 Intro: Business coach expert Nick and Chris reflect on the year that was…

2.56 Nick locks into planning; Be prepared to pivot and change direction. That’s the lesson – and the plan going forward. Have a contingency plan B - and C. You’ll need it.

5.34 Chis reveals his greatest learning; slow and steady wins the race. Success will almost never happen overnight. Since Covid, we have learned that nothing is a sprint; it’s a marathon. Slowing down allows you to observe progress. Dan Sullivan says your business is `25 years in the making’.

8.40 Being ridiculously consistent is the stable partner of understanding that success takes time.

10.22 Work towards ‘mastery’.

11.00 When an economy turns there is massive growth. Covid provided an intense, unprecedented re-set. Many businesses faded to a halt. But the reboot is happening. You have to be prepared to ride out the low wave but start to identify opportunities on the horizon and leap-frog your competitors.

14.31 Stop thinking short term. Start the good habits of putting money aside.

19.39 If you want to become a different person, you need to think like a different person. You are a product of your thoughts and your macro environment. Shift the way you react to unfavourable outcomes.

21.16 Habits are really important. Be willing to break the current version of yourself.

22.49 Don’t let distractions change your course – covid, weather, politics. Nick is keen to see us focus, rebuild, get back on the horse and don’t panic. Knee-jerk reactions have no place in 2023.

27.30 You will not find grounding in business if you react without planning. It’s an evolution not a revolution; that’s why it takes TIME. Look at Kodak and Nokia!

28.30 There is no rush; slow down and savour what you already have. Slow and steadily evolve, grow and progress. Move forward slowly over time. If you’re busy but not progressing you’re wasting your time.

37.00 If you’d like to reach out and learn how you can implement change in 2023, email [email protected] for more information on today’s podcast.

EPISODE SUMMARY

The end of a year is always a good time for reflection.

Taking time out to be okay with your business progress - and yourself - is vital. Rest and rejuvenation; both are critical to personal and business success.

Finally, as you sit with the notion that slow and steady progress is evolution (not revolution) let go and remember to enjoy your time away from your business.

A fresh outlook and a constantly shifting mindset going into 2023 will be your most valuable weapon in the face of change. Happy holidays!
