Be brave, be brave, be brave: If you’re not sure you can do it, do it.

Be brave, be brave, be brave: If you’re not sure you can do it, do it.

Still on holiday this week (now I’m on the Isle of Skye). 

So instead of a full Note, here’s a sketchnote from an event I went to, which gave me a great deal to think about as a business owner. 

The topic was “strategy”, which can sound really boring. It’s been used and overused until we think it has to do with documents or long meetings or buzzwords like blue sky thinking. 

When really, it has to do with being brave. 

What impressed me most with this talk from @bigdogagency were statements like “be brave, be brave, be brave”. 

“Be brave and stick to it.”

“Be better than the day before.”

“You have to make time for it. It comes down to you.” 

“If you’re not sure you can do it, do it.” (Richard Branson)

“Tactical means you win the game. Strategy means you win consistently.”

Be brave, be brave, be brave: If you’re not sure you can do it, do it.

What i’d love to hear from you today is: 

Where do you need to be brave – in life or in business?

Wild swimming time! 

I’ve been through Glencoe many a time but never stopped for a wild swim yet and today was the day! Bright sunshine (and getting super warm on even a short walk across the hills), so a dip in the cool highland water was exactly what we needed. 

We found a little mini canyon where no one else happened to be so we had it all to ourselves! Always love that - some of the “highland hot spots” can get so crowded especially on a sunny day. 

I’ll be going here again and hiking a bit further on a new trail we explored! 💪👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✨

(Ps no I didn’t get my full mile of lap swimming in today tho 😆😆 it was tough to put my whole head underwater for more than a second or two even on a blazingly warm day!!)
