Three questions for today…
17
I agree to:
I take 100% responsibility for my own success, both personally & professionally
I am committed to continuous daily growth & improvement
I’m committed to learning what I need to do to be successful, both personally &
professionally
I’m committed to learning how to do what I need to do to be successful, both personally
& professionally
I’m committed to taking action on what I know & what I‘ve learned
I’m committed to view anything that gets between my goals & me as an obstacle for
which there is a path around. I’ll find that and ACT on it
I recognize that viewing an obstacle as insurmountable, or by not trying, I’ve made a
choice to give up. Giving up is failure and I will not do that
Not acting or delaying action on a problem is a choice, a choice to choose failure. I
choose to not take that path
Nothing just happens to me. Being a victim is a choice
I’m committed to doing whatever it takes to accomplish my goals without violating the
law of the universe, God and mankind
I agree to take charge of my life and my business 18

Excuses for Not Planning
Too busy
– Many businesses are so “busy doing business” on a day to day
basis (fire fighting) that they don’t have time to plan
– The fact is that unless you make time to plan, you’ll waste time,
money & energy and if the mistakes are too great, you will go out
of business

Business Planning Excellence
Every Time
Haste makes waste
There will be times when you believe time is the most
precious commodity
– In fact, often in trying to get more time, you hurry
– When you hurry, you are more likely to make mistakes
– Mistakes mean rework
– Rework means more time (which you already don’t have) and
additional cost, both of which result in lower profits and the
possible loss of customers
