Why Thinking Too Big Can Be Fatal And Thinking Too Small Can Be Deadly For Your Startup

The tension between the grand vision of what they see their business could become and the stark reality of where they are now.

How do you bridge the chasm without getting overwhelmed on one hand or stuck in the minutiae of day to day tasks on the other? I’ve recorded a short video for you today about walking this tightrope.

I’m Talking About

  • Why it’s important to keep a balance between big vision and day to day tasks?
  • The dangers of only focussing on your big picture.
  • What you miss out on when you only focus on managing tasks.
  • The method I use to keep the two in balance.

There’s also a free download template of the method I use to keep my big vision in front of me and also keep focussed on the next step.
