Putting Your Business Plan Into Action2
Adapted from
"The Easy Way To Put Your Business Plans Into
Action", Wendy Hearn
One of the best ways to identify the
actions that you're ready and willing to take is by asking yourself
empowering and powerful questions. You do need to be sure that your
business plans are current and up to date. If they need some time to
freshen them up, then I invite you to do this first. Now read through
your business plans and get in touch with the positive feelings you had
when writing them. Once you feel in touch with your plans, ask yourself
one or a couple of questions. You may choose to use your own questions
or start with ones such as:
-
What one specific action would have the
greatest impact on bringing this plan to fruition?
-
What is the one action that I most need to take today?
-
What do I feel inspired and ready to do now?
Before asking the questions, quiet your mind and be willing to listen to your
answer. Once you've identified the actions needed, get started now. This
identifies the most effective action to take in alignment with what you most
want through your business plan. As you build the habit of asking yourself these
questions, you may want to add your own or choose different ones.

The Art
of Questioning
You must practice a lot to develop and master
your art and skill of effective questioning. The general idea of the
learning questions
is "to prompt the learners into exploring issues in depth either by direct
questions or by implied questions – even a raised eyebrow – so that they
become more aware of what is going on and can eventually coach themselves
and other. Feedback can then be used to discuss
progress and provide guidance, but still by using
questions and the main vehicle
for progress whenever possible."2
