How do you handle prepping for vacation? My family is coming in to town on Wednesday for 14 days. I’m super excited, haven’t seen them in over a year. At the same time, I have had some shifts in the company that require me to stay focused AND I’ve got some MAJOR momentum happening with my campaigns. Stepping away to focus on family is 1000% necessary. I’m blessed to be able to have this opportunity to spend with them. But…eek!!! Knowing me, I’ll be ticking away at the computer from 9pm-3am while they are here. No one will even know the difference. #sneaky What would you do? Step away from work or sneak away when they are sleeping?

If you could change anything in your business right now, what would you change and why?

We have crossed a huge milestone since starting this Skool community! I am genuinely thankful to everyone here who contributes to make it a better experience for everyone! As a thank you gift, the first 150 should now have lifetime access to our standard plan. Thank you thank you!! Also a bonus that you may have not thought of. Right now you’ll get 40% commission for anyone you refer (if you use your affiliate link). If you’re part of the first 150, then that’s positive financial ROI straight into your pockets. For those who are new and making their investment for it, only 2-3 people successfully referred and it pays for itself. Not even including the main ROI being what’s learned, taught, and implemented through the connections. Now we enter into the next phase, let me know with a dm your thoughts on how to improve and provide more value as we go. All ideas are welcome. @Joe Quero and I along with our team members are making plans this Friday to discuss this as well!

You guys all know I am a huge, HUGE proponent of business planning. My company’s motto is: Whatever you do, do it with intent. I’m deliberate. I’m detailed. And I play the long game. But one of the harder lessons for me has been accepting that even a good plan does not always unfold on the timeline you expected. I got hit with three pretty significant curveballs over the last quarter. And the funny part is, none of them were completely unexpected. I had planned for each one. What I had not planned for was the timing. Three things that were supposed to happen at different points decided to show up all at once. And that will test even a very organized person. 😂 For someone like me, the instinct is to go back to the plan and ask, “Okay, where did we miss?” But sometimes you did not miss. Sometimes the plan was fine. The timing just changed. That has probably been one of my bigger reminders this year: Planning matters. So does flexibility. The plan gives you direction. Flexibility keeps you moving when real life decides to rearrange the schedule. And maybe that is part of playing the long game too. Not expecting everything to happen exactly as planned. Just being prepared enough to adjust when it doesn’t. So if this season feels messier than you expected, keep going. You may not need a whole new plan. You may just need to adjust the timing, protect the priorities, and keep moving toward what you intended in the first place.

I’m genuinely curious if anyone here who sees this has ever hired someone to drive them places so they can continue working? Uber or an assistant I’m finding myself wanting to continue communicating to people and plan for business growth an opportunity while driving. And I’m really wondering should that happen and if so, when should it happen for best ROI? Is there anyone here with experience on that? There’s so much more time that could be put in if it was while driving
