Do You Feel As If Your Wheels Are Spinning?


Last weekend my wife left the house to run a few errands. The day before we had received about 4 plus inches of snow, so the roads were covered. The day she was out, the temperature was well below freezing. The conditions were not ideal to say the least. Anyhow, shortly after she left I received a phone call from my wife informing me she had slid off the road and ended up in someones front yard.

But the whole story was she was only driving about 20 mph and out of no where did two 360 degree spins in the middle of the road and then hit a street sign - landing in a front yard. Thank goodness she was safe and no harm came to her, but the car did receive a blow to the body and a flat tire.

So as I ran this unexpected event through my head I thought of 'How could we have avoided this possibly devastating accident?', 'Did she slip out of control due to the risk I took of not getting new tires when the tread was practically gone?'

Well here is how this applies to you, me and life:

Do you feel as if your wheels are spinning?
  • What type of business vehicle are you using to achieve your goals?

  • Are you lacking some major traction?

  • Are you driving on thin ice?

  • Are you driving down the right road or are you totally lost?

  • What can you do if you lose total control?

These are all great questions to ponder about your life & business.

I want to narrow this down to the 3 most important things to consider in your life & business:

1. The Vehicle

2. The Tires

3. The Road

Go in for a Tune-Up. Evaluate these 3 things above and figure out which one is the most skewed and change it out.

Reap the success & happiness you deserve!
