Fix your strategy to gain clarity

I have talked with more than 20 men in my coaching by now.

They all dream to grow a business.

Yet they all get stuck.

They are motivated, they have their reason and are excited to start.

Yet they lack the strategy.

They want clients.

Yet have no offer, no leads, and no conversion.

In the end, they are frustrated, confused, and overwhelmed.

I know how that feels.

I have been there too. It sucks.

When we’re in the coaching sessions, I come to bring the strategy to build an offer, get leads, and also convert them.

The result is that they have clarity.

For many of them, it’s the first time since starting their business that they have a clear road ahead of them.

They see the next step.

This is so wonderful to observe.

Over the last years, I have observed myself:

There are a few things we do or think that keep us stuck.

More knowledge – more tactics – more work – more distractions.

Reading more books and watching more YouTube videos is not going to help us.

When you don’t know what problem you’re solving:

Trying to stay up to date with the latest algorithm updates and newest trends is also not helping you.

When you’re struggling with the basics.

Another way is we don’t solve by working more.

I have also focused on productivity – trying to get more done.

This also didn’t help.

Because I can be working on the wrong things and run faster in the wrong direction.

  • Don’t Be Scared of a Post to Fail

    Social media gets pretty boring.I read the same posts over and over again. Why do most people post the same stuff? It feels like there is nobody sharing fresh ideas. There are waves of trends.As soon as somebody posts something good,it gets reposted, repurposed a hundred times. They all look alike.Sound alike.Are there no new ideas? I believe it’s for one reason: Because people are actually scared their post won’t get enough likes. They hold back their genuine self, fresh thoughts, and new…

  • Seasonal Stewardship

    Seasonal Stewardship In Ecclesiastes, Solomon is telling about many different seasons of life. There is a time of birthing and a time of dying. There are many more seasons: Sowing and harvesting. Work hard and rest. Season of sorrow and season of joy. Then there are also seasons of life: when you’re a child. An adult. Single and married. Engaged. Having young kids. All these seasons change your responsibility. So in effect, it changes your stewardship. All the points of Extreme Stewardship…

  • The One Thing My Dad Never Missed

    Most kids don’t remember what you did. They do remember that you were there. Life is hard today. We have many priorities pulling on us. We have many responsibilities pulling us away from our family. Today most couples need to both get jobs. The pay in the jobs went down and financing requires both incomes to make a living. When I was growing up, I was fortunate enough for my dad to have a job that would allow us to live with one income only. My mother could stay at home.Focus all her…

  • Nobody Asked Me This Question…

    One thing I keep thinking about is how slow I was going. In the beginning, I kept telling people about all the ideas and plans I had. The response I got was cool. They were all excited for me and interested in what I would do. Yet nobody asked me how fast I can do it. This is the most important question after all. Most of us start solo. So we are our fastest bottleneck too. Our runway is not long. The only question that matters is:How fast can you ship a product to get real results? The…

  • The Productivity Lie I Believed for 5 Years

    For the last few years I’ve read so many productivity books. Watched tons of videos trying to figure out how can I get more done in my 24 hours than others. This is the core driver of productivity types: Getting more done with the time they have. It’s all about efficiency. There is one major flaw with productivity that took me 5 years to understand:It doesn’t matter how fast I run, if I’m running in the wrong direction. In the productivity space there is a lot of clutter about tactics that…

  • Declare War on the Hustle

    I have to admit something.I love my business and I really enjoy building businesses. That might not be that surprising. The surprising side is that I’m proud of how much I work. 50 hours a week is a good baseline. (I’m actively not counting all things because the shadow schedule is a lot bigger.) I started my business to build for my family, not to run from them. Now I have a business that hides me from my family. When I’m not working, I feel bad about not getting more done. So I get back to…
