One Sherpa

I was recently in Cambodia talking with a group of small business owners and made the following remark.

“When you tell people that you have your own business they always think you’re rich.”

They all sheepishly agreed but often felt hurt because they wished they were rich BUT seemed to be always struggling.

Many small business owners are misunderstood and struggling with no one to talk to about it.

That’s the reason for our One Sherpa online community.

To encourage and empower small business owners who want to be rich and find where the money is hiding in their business.

When was the last time you reached out to someone and asked for help?

Have you been pushing people away without realising that they are genuinely trying to help you?

Have you become so convinced that you know your business so well it’s difficult to find someone who really understands and can help you?

In my life I have learned that getting other people’s perspective on things can be the most important accelerator in my business.

So why have I often not been intentionally looking for people to input into my world.

Basically it’s that word PRIDE. And I’ve found that when pride is present I can often be locked out of good thought and input from others.

Please understand me; a healthy sense of pride is important in any business so that things are done excellently, but when it get’s exaggerated it can lock you away from the input of others.

Climbing the mountain to the pinnacle of success is not a ‘go alone’ exercise.

It requires the help of others and requires you to remain open and welcoming to the input from those around you who often care for you more than you realise.
