Many business owners view certainty as a destination they hope to reach. This is often expressed through their desire for a specific outcome in various aspects of their lives. For instance, they might wonder how to attain greater financial security, business certainty, or personal contentment.
However, it is crucial to understand that certainty is not an outcome but rather a path or journey. Let me provide you with a model that perfectly illustrates this concept.
Winning or Losing?
If your goal is to be certain about winning, you must identify the decisions and actions that will lead you along the green line, ultimately taking you closer to your desired outcome.
On the other hand, if you drift along without purposeful decisions and actions, you’ll find yourself on the red line, where drifting always leads to a downward trajectory in both business and life.
What's Your Path?
In both cases, the passing of time will amplify the effects of whichever path you’re on. Decisions and actions have an upward compounding effect, while drift has a downward compounding effect.
Therefore, it is crucial to determine the decisions and actions that will set you on the green line, propelling you upward to your Victorious zone.
