PS. 01 The Power Of Making A Decision

Did you know that according to an experiment, people are happier the day before they go on holiday than when they're actually on holiday?

I was surprised too!


And it made me realise how powerful making a decision is.


In this episode, I talk about how we can learn from that principle and apply to our businesses.



Soundbites:


"It made me think back to when I was leaving teaching to run my tutoring business full time.  Although I hadn't left yet, I think my happiest day in that process was when I handed in my resignation."


"Mindset matters.  And sometimes, making a decision is all we need, to turn things around even before we have implemented that decision.  The minute my client decided that there were enough students for all of us, she unblocked the challenge she was facing."


Enjoy :-)
