4 Time-Sucking Mistakes That Aren’t Getting You The Results You Want In Business And How to Fix Them

So, what are these time sucking mistakes?

• You are not Setting Goals that will Stretch you to get specific result in your Business: One great thing about goals is that if you actually did it right, then you will actually understand the specific steps to take to achieve it. Your goals should Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-bound.

Another Example is Jim Carrey, the actor that acted “The Mask” whose asking price is $20 million per picture but before then he was struggling as a Canadian comic trying to make his way in Los Angeles.

• Stop Comparing yourself or your progress with other people: Stop playing costly games with your future and with your business. You do not have such time! If Mr. A is doing what you want to do, Ask Mr A questions about his progress to get you started
