You've been in the business for a long time now. You’ve come accustom to things just as they are. The things that motivated you then lost their luster. Your business is just ‘another day at the office’, ‘business as usual’. How do you bring back the excitement that you begin with?
Remember the day
you opened the company door. No matter what the weather may have been, you felt
great. You awaited your associates at the door, hoping they were on time and
that your choices were the best. You were the king-of-the-hill, the captain of
your domain. Whether you’re a retailer or a manufacturer, the excitement that
was there, somehow it got clouded, it can come back.
You do the same
routine day after day. Back then you had nothing to take for granted, let’s
face it, everything was new. After time we fall into molds, molds we’ve created
unconsciously. It’s time to break the mold and make it new again. Let’s look
into a few things that can help bring back that luster.
First,
change the order of things the best you can. Granted some things must come at
the beginning of the day, but there is a lot that can be juggled around.
Second, you
start your meetings at 10:00am every day; make it a half hour earlier or later
instead. It will get your meetings to become a bit more interesting if you change
the starting topic as well. If needed bring
up the most crucial first, then change it up.
Third,
check e-mails at a different time slot. Maybe half in the morning and the other
before you call it a day.
Forth, take lunch at a different time; bring
someone other than the same old
people. And it doesn’t have to be about work all the time. Change the
conversation like sports, the weather, etc.
Fifth, take a pleasure tour of your shop;
greet your employees with enthusiasm. That will wake them up. This is supposed
to be a cordial moment.
These are just a few
small steps to take away the hum-drum out of everyday at the office. Remembering
why you started in the first place is the right and first place to start.
