Episode #178 Trust the Process

Overview

If you have been putting in the work to build your business and wondering why it is taking so long, this episode is exactly what you need to hear. Dr. Charlotte Huntley explains why building a business from the ground up takes longer than most expect and reassures early-stage founders that slow progress is completely normal. Tune in to discover three practical strategies to help you stay the course, maintain momentum, and recognize the true growth of your business.

Takeaways

• Building a business takes time, and staying consistent before seeing results is what separates successful entrepreneurs from those who stop too soon.

• Slow progress is still progress, and early-stage entrepreneurs should avoid interpreting slow results as a sign that something is wrong.

• Develop a habit of writing down and celebrating your wins, no matter how small, such as making a new connection or completing a proposal.

• Review your documented wins at the end of every month and compare your current state to where you were six months ago, rather than comparing yourself to others.

• Consistency matters more than intensity, so you should commit to two or three business development actions every week for 90 days before evaluating their effectiveness.

• Reconnect with your "why" by keeping a visual reminder of your purpose or reconnecting with a person your work has positively impacted.
