Are you In Tune with Your Business?


There are things we do on a daily basis that determines if we are conscious competent (stage 3) or unconscious competent (stage 4).  I would venture to say you're not at one or two level because then you would be oblivious to your surroundings.

Are you at Stage  3 or Stage 4 in your business?

Conscious competence are those things that you do, but must be focused on it or somewhat be thinking about while you're doing it.  Let's say you are used to folding your clothes a certain way, however someone else shows you their way of folding them, you have to be a bit more focused on the new way than the way you are use to.  Basically you cannot rely on the "second nature" of folding your clothes.  You'll practice over and over again, the new way, being careful to learn the new way, the new pattern, making sure it's right.

Unconscious competence are those things you do that are second nature, literally taking no thought
knowing it just fits into your routine.  When you're normally getting dresses and preparing for the day, one of the things you most likely will not forget is brushing your teeth.  If you did so, lets say while driving, you make quickly find your way to the nearest drug store and buy a tooth brush and all the essentials to take care of the issue of forgetting to brush your teeth.  When you forget something that you do unconsciously you know something is not right.  There is a piece missing from the pattern.

Well this brings me to my next piece, your business.  Are you so in tune with your business that it is second nature to talk with someone about your business?  Are you so passionate about what you know that it is a natural progression of relating to others needs with your products and/or services?  Is your business operating like the tooth brush scenario, where you operate it like an essential part of the day and when you are not doing so you sense something missing.  You as a business owner must become so interactive with your business that even when you are not trying to share with someone, the sense or "aroma" of your character will draw those quality individuals and leaders to help you succeed.

This week we will touch on the 4 Stages of Conscious Competence, help you understand where you are in your business and give you some tools to better navigate where you are, how you can be better, and become more aware of your strengths and weaknesses in your business.
