Telling someone who asks me to tell them what they should do is extremely hard, especially when they do not want to hear what I know they should be doing.
I enjoy getting the opportunity to use my experience and pass on what I know to those searching for answers to their question on “What to do”. However, in the event of someone not really interested in making any changes to what they are doing is not something that is easy to do.
I am not really attempting to play on the word “Do”, but in this came it just came out that way.
Change for most people is very hard to do. I am an advocate for change, so that makes dealing with change easy for me. I like to change and always am looking for ways to change for the better. Why..well, I know what to do!
Change is part of solving a problem. Change can be good and it can also be bad.
It is those bad changes most people fear in making which leads them into searching for someone like me to tell them what to do. But, many times, they are not really interested in wanting to know what to do as much as they are looking for someone to tell them what they are doing is the correct thing to do.
Nonetheless, there are many people who need to change something they are doing. In the world of business, changing the way to market products and services to businesses has changed. This means businesses need to change.
In the social arena, the way we socialize has changed…and then changed again..OH Wait..it changed again. A few years ago it was cool to be on Facebook, but now, unless you like talking to yourself, there are many other things you could be spending your time doing than wallowing around in Facebook.
But, do not attempt to tell some who owns a failing business stuck with using a 1990 marketing campaign that they need to change to a video centric digital marketing strategy. Or, talk to someone drunk on Facebook Koolaid that maybe they should look to using Google+ or LinkedIn to find Real people. Both of these type of people are the ones who reach out to ask what they need to do to change, but then do know want to hear what exactly they need to do to change.
There are a lot of people dead set to not change but keep asking people what it is they need to do. Hopefully you are not one of them. I doubt you are since if you were you would have not made it this far.
Open you eyes people…see what is going on around you and then….let me know how I can help.
