Thriving in unusually difficult times.
Thriving in adversity and a weak economy.
Farmers and businesses have survived economic downturns before, and many have thrived excellently. A period of economic decline can be a powerful opportunity to spend your time and money wisely. Seize this time to drive improvements, and you could find yourself in a far better position when and as economic conditions improve.
If you’re fearful, envisioning the worst for yourself and your business, and your conversations are focused predominantly on bad news, you’re seriously impeding your success.
It’s time to take focused actions daily until the crisis passes. Only then have a well-earned rest. How do you handle an endless stream of activities daily, week after week, and month after month when nothing is going well?
Some might, but most don’t, and lack of momentum is one main reason. Instead of starting with a blank document or screen, looking for answers, they start typing. It doesn’t matter if you scrap what they write initially and have to start again. What matters is that they make a start.
The best way to build momentum is to break the significant issues and tasks you have into small, bite-sized chunks that you can quickly and easily address.
If you aren’t motivated, tell yourself you’ll do one small task, then stop. Naturally, you won’t stop most of the time because once you’ve completed the little job, you have already built momentum and will most likely keep going.
Thriving requires change and action orientation.
Those who prevail in difficult times are the ones who steadfastly refuse to allow negativity. Instead, they deliberately and diligently take constructive action. They continually stimulate and revitalise their organisation, enabling them to squeeze in even more activities.
It’s not the salesperson with the best equipment who wins the most farmers; it’s the person who knows the farmers, their businesses, their problems, frustrations, wants, and needs and is prepared to help.
