Monday Motivation For Electrical & Trade Business Owners

Monday Motivation For Electrical & Trade Business Owners

The Monday Pick Up Have you ever been in that sweet spot in business when everything is going right and you cannot put a foot wrong? The quotes are landing, the birds are chirping, the money is rolling in, the work is flowing like the salmon of Capistrano, and so on. But what about when the opposite is happening? What about when the quotes are falling upon deaf ears, when the birds are pooing on you, when the money is scarce, and there is no salmon. How do you pick yourself up? What do you do? How do you wake up Evanescence style? The answer is usually pretty simple. Take some time. Sit down. Write out what is not working. And then write out what you can do to change it. And know this: at Sparky Coach, we are always here for you! Bryan Adams style.
