I love gardening and landscaping. It gives me time to clear my head and come back to work better focused for the weekly challenges. This weekend was especially hectic, because alternative periods of high heat and excessive rain had delayed most of our vegetable seeding and planting. Our family had gotten well past the deadline for putting in most of our stuff, so we had to bear down and get it done. Time and tide just don’t let you wait.
When it comes down to it, we’d get little done without deadlines. It often takes external events or someone else to push us. A lot of cash-strapped business owners don’t seek help until it’s too late. They don’t act at an early stage to do the right things at the right times to prevail. As troubles build up, they become increasingly frustrated, hoping that their ship will stay afloat. And of course it won’t do this on its own.
A big frustration in our business is being called in to help resolve tough business issues at a very late stage, when the options are far fewer than they might have been just a month or two before. If there’s ever a need for urgency, it’s when collectors are calling and suits are being filed. It’s not too smart to get into denial and then be forced to act at the eleventh hour to try to avoid an immediate default judgment.
Collectors want to create a sense of urgency, don’t they? Their success in doing so will determine if they succeed or fail. And a suit filing by an attorney really gets your attention. As a business owner, you have to adopt the same sense of urgency as the other side. If not, there’s not much sense in trying to stay in business.
