How do you eat an elephant?

One bite at a time.

That was my question to a client I started working with. This client was overwhelmed with how much he didn’t know about running his business. Sure he made money through the years but now the kids are all grown up and he can really concentrate on his business. Although he has been in business for over 3 decades he was ready to take his company to the next level. The level where he works on his business, not in his business. To this point he was the owner, sales rep, marketing rep, office manager, accounting manager and bill collector. This client realized he can’t do it all and be as successful as he wanted to be. He did the right thing by consulting with a business coach. He’s in the process of learning key strategic objectives and if he just takes small bites and sets short and long term goals that are measurable over time, he can eat an elephant.
