It's Good To Dream
October 03, 2003
I don't know what I was worried about. The focus groups went off really well, good ideas were discusssed, and most important of all - the groups views of what price the service should be was more than double what I'd been planning for! So while I'm not exactly buying my house in Howth and my convertible Jaguar just yet, I am thinking about what might be!
It is good to dream.
The last couple of weeks have been a bit slower than any since I started Brightspark. I think I have been a bit spoiled - winning a client after 2 weeks, then another after 5....in the last 3 weeks I haven't won a new client and I was beginning to throw my hands in the air in despair. Yesterday I allowed myself a little dream time - goal setting on the Dart gazing out over Dublin Bay, the hill of Howth rising up in front of me....and lo the phone rang and one of my proposals has come home to roost. A couple of hours later and I got another call - another one wanting to see me next week. Can we make it 3? Yes, a follow up phone call from me today and I've got me another job to work on! So my advice to you if you are feeling a bit stuck - allow yourself to dream, give yourself time to visualise why you're doing this. And success will come to you. Have a good weekend everybody.
