What Side Swiping a Car Reminded Me About Business
I’m in Australia driving my rental car and the one thing I’ve had to learn to be very conscious of is that in Australia, they drive on the left side of the road.
It’s not like I don’t know how to drive or that I’m not a good driver, but from living in North America, we drive on the right side of the road so driving in Australia is almost like learning a new skill set.
With business, whenever you’re looking to get better at something, whether it be writing copy, sales, marketing, leading a team, hiring, operations, etc., every single one of the things I just mentioned are skills. All of these initially feel like you’re driving on the wrong side of the road.
When we look to improve a skill set, we go through 4 stages.
Unconscious Incompetence – You Don’t Realize You Suck At Something
Conscious Incompetence – You Realize How Bad You Are At Something
Conscious Competence – You’re Trying Hard To Get Good At Something
Unconscious Competence – You Get So Good At Something You Do It In Your Sleep
No one is going to be perfect at doing something right off the bat on day one. Don’t expect to be a master at anything new right away.
Stay the course. It’s OK to make mistakes.
In This Episode I discuss:
00:00 – 03:00 – Introducing Today’s Topic
03:00 – 04:35 – Four Stages Of Competence
04:35 – 07:00 – It’s OK To Be Imperfect
