Everyone knows you have to pull the weeds, right?
In your garden, they steal nutrients from your plants. In your business, they can be all the little distractions and shiny objects that steal your attention from your sales and marketing efforts.
Most of the time we should look to keep them under control, but we have to do so with caution.
I was reminded of this over the weekend when pulling nut sedge from the pepper bed. One had sprouted up under my little ghost pepper plant and actually punctured a leaf.
I reached under to pull it up… and ended up plucking the top of my plant off. 🤦🏽‍♂️
Luckily, there was one leaf left, and a new little bud is already forming.
With so many distractions and channels of information coming at us these days it can be easy to just “shut it all down.”
Our browsers and word processors have “focus mode.”
But I was also reminded to not get too drastic when I opened up Slack and found I had almost missed an opportunity.
Remove your distractions, pull the weeds, but do so carefully
