Personal Growth - Future-Proofing Your Business - Florin Lungu

FLORIN LUNGU - “ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET”

IBGR.Network - PROFIT Radio. Everything a business owner needs to start, grow, or exit a business. GROW WITH US.

INTRODUCTION

We are the start of a new year, a new season and I am delighted to share this show with you as we start season 4 on IBGR Network. 

 And throughout this season I’ve created a roadmap for us to go on a growth journey together because as John Maxwell wisely said, “The only guarantee that tomorrow is going to be better is if we improve ourselves today.” 

So in the next twelve weeks, we will be working on the business owner. As one of my mentors, Christian Simpson would say we’ll develop the owner, not the business. We’ll cover essential topics to building our entrepreneurial mindset and I am so excited you embarked on this journey with us.  

Show Objectives - The Why

The world stops for no one. If we are not moving forward, we are moving backward. With that in mind is obvious that we have no choice but to grow. 
And if we think about the law of vibration, we know that everything in the universe is in constant movement. Nothing is still and everything either grows and develops or is disintegrating. There is no such thing as inertia. We are either growing and moving forward or moving backward. 

Key Issues - Owner Perspective:

The biggest challenge to making personal growth a priority is that we wrongly assume that activity is growth. It is not. Running your business doesn’t guarantee you grow. 

Moving from a goals mindset to a growth mindset. 
 

What You Need to Know - The What

Albert Einstein asserted that “Education is that which remains when one has forgotten everything he learned in school.” 

True education and growth come from the school of life and in order for us to succeed as entrepreneurs and business owners we have to constantly challenge our thoughts by asking ourselves these three questions John Maxwell shares in one of his books:

• Learn: What do I need to learn today that I didn’t know yesterday?
• Unlearn: What do I need to let go of today that I held on to yesterday?
• Relearn: What do I need to change today that I was doing yesterday? 

In the book Developing the Lader Within You 2.0, John Maxwell shares Five Ways to Intentionally Not Act Old so we stay active growth seekers at any age. Here they are:

1. Ask Questions
2. Keep the Bar of Excellence High
3. Be People-Centric
4. Be Posture-Conscious
5. Remain Today-Focused

You might not feel you need this list but I can assure you the are some golden nuggets in this list if you take the time to contemplate.  


What You Need to Do - The How

Where to start:

1. Know Yourself to Grow Yourself
2. Decide Who Do You Want to Be in Three Years
3. Make An Inventory of Where You Are Now
4. Create a Personal Growth Plan to Close Gap 

Here is a four-step strategy

1. Big picture: Where do I need to focus my growth?
2. Measurement: How can I measure and affect my growth?
3. Consistency: How can I grow daily?
4. Application: Can I act on it?
