Blue Star Design in the news.
By John Briggs as told to Plain Dealer Reporter Marcia Pledger
The Mistake: I was a marketing manager in corporate America for a long time, working for multi-billion dollar companies with resources at my fingertips. When my wife's small design studio got to the point where she gained a client that could help take the business to the next level, she begged me to join her. With reservations I finally did. But I started off wrong, bringing my corporate mindset to a small business. Read the entire article and the fix at cleveland.com.Permalink | Leave a comment »
SubscribeAnd just how are you running this race?
Surprisingly, it turned out our son is pretty good at long distance running. And our lightening-quick daughter was the one to struggle at times during these meets. She looked almost directionless. Thank goodness for the all signs, spectators, spotters and orange cones or we could have lost her to the woods.
It was just perplexing. This is the same girl we frantically chased through the doctors office along side the nurse, needle in hand. She’s way speedier than she had been letting on at cross country.
It appeared, after a few long drawn out races, that our lovely Lydia lacked a goal – she was simply running to run.
That’s nuts. No one runs a race to run a race, no more than one runs a business to run a business. You don’t run for the heck of it. There is a reason you run. And it’s not just to finish, either. Finishing is not a goal, it is an integral part of the race.
The idea is to finish each race AND improve. Carefully defined goals help you measure your progress along the way, and give you the focus vital to reaching your destination. Achieving a better standing, better time, better running form. Earning better profits, reaching more customers, reducing expenses.
Without goals you end up going through the motions, trailing behind everyone else in the field. If you’re persistent, and a bit lucky, you will finish – but without any kind of reward or true satisfaction. More than likely you’ll only be left with exhaustion.
Our son's goal was clear from the start of cross country, to be the first one in on among his teammates. Lydia, on the other hand, loved the social aspect of the meets. She looked forward to hanging out with her girls before and after the race. So we helped her discover the goal she needed. We simply pointed out she could “hang out” with her faster friends DURING the race, too – something she didn’t realize she could do.
Finally, on the last weekend of the season, Lydia ran her best race ever. She shaved 5 minutes off her time, and actually beat a few of her friends along the way – both to her amazement and ours.
Funny, the one thing I didn’t have to point out to either of our kids is that all goals end up being worthless if you aren’t willing to dig in and get a little dirty to get the job done.
