This week we're talking about ways to avoid being average. Enjoy!

Remaining open-minded

  • Holding on to a beginner's mindset keeps things fun and helps you stay focused and sharp
  • Helps keep you open to finding new opportunities
  • Gives you permission to: NOT have all the answers
  • Keeps you creative
  • Introduces novelty which helps push off complacency 
  • Helps in leadership roles. By asking questions and taking interest in others, you're demonstrating that you value them
  • Your experience level doesn't matter. Treat every situation as if you're going to miss something

Avoid settling

  • It's easier to stay in a bad current situation which causes long-term problems
  • Get out of your comfort zone to feel inspired
  • Stay proactive
  • Find a mentor or someone who will hold you accountable
  • Accumulating knowledge without applying is a waste of your time

Being able to adjust and pivot 

  • Most people are too afraid to make changes, and that's the reason why most people will never be as successful as they could
  • Most people don't want real change - they want new versions of current things
  • Making decisions based on what's best for YOUR business and its target client's

Making things about the client

  • Getting engagement (approval to inflate your ego) from other hair pros shouldn't be your goal 
  • Passive aggressive posting at clients isn't a solid strategy
  • Stop copying other accounts and think for yourself
  • Learn how to have conversations with individuals
  • Have boundaries, your clients need rules, and every successful business has rules and systems that customers must follow

Jen's challenge to you!

  • What's one thing in your business that you could add or innovate for 2023?
  • Step out of your bubble!
  • How can you step up your game?

Not everything gets done overnight. 
Most things aren't sprints; they're a marathon.
Take small steps.
