2) Sharpen Your Clarity
Clarity is an elusive business skill--arguably the most elusive. Financial advisers become so busy running their business day-to-day, they forget the direction they are running. Clarity requires you to take the ambiguity out of your business. Like looking through a clean window and seeing the landscape, clarity is built on your internal knowledge of your mission, your personal values, the purpose of your business, and the goals you plan to achieve. Clarity is the process of making clear your intention and determination. Clarity is deciding how you will add value to the lives of your clients and customers.
Working without clarity is like playing a football game without goal posts. Imagine your favorite football team running up and down the field without an objective, without a goal, and without a standard to measure success.
