Three months after the shoulder operation, it’s delightful to be back kite-surfing, playing tennis and cycling. With a category five tear through my ligaments, I never expected to recover so quickly. I’d like to thank Dr. Andrew Sankey for doing such a fantastic job with the surgery.

It makes me so happy to be able to join in on the pickleball and tennis tournaments again, and to be back training for our Strive Challenges. My serve is shaping up nicely too!

Fitness really is the cornerstone of my life. Everything flows from it. I did my physiotherapy religiously, and it’s somewhat miraculous to see what a combination of brilliant surgery and dedicated rehabilitation can do.

Everyone tells you that you need to track your goals.

I think there is a little more to it than that.

Having your goals written down and read every day is important. You have to remember "why" are you taking the time and money to take action. A goal is your destination.

However, if you don't track your daily activities towards your goals, it feels like they are so far away.

Make sure to track the steps and how many more steps remain towards your goals. You'll be surprised how quickly you reach the finish line.

If you don’t have a business plan, that's okay.

NO REALLY... don’t worry!

I’ve worked with many small business owners, and I see the same challenges pop up when it comes to writing those lengthy 30+ page documents. It can feel overwhelming! Like you’re trying to tackle the whole future of your business in one go.

But here's the good news: you don’t have to!

What I want to see is something simpler, like a business model canvas or a simple up to eight-page document that clearly outlines a few key things:

1. What is your marketplace?
2. What products and services are you offering to that marketplace?
3. What are your financial projections for the next three years?

Focusing on these three questions can make the process so much more manageable!

Once your business starts to grow and you hit that magical $1 million mark in annual revenue, that’s when things get exciting and a bit more complex. You’ll need to think about business operations, processes, and leadership teams. But until then, keep your energy focused on marketing, sales, and fulfilling your customer’s needs.

Remember, your business plan can evolve as your company grows and reaches new milestones.

If you need a hand or some guidance, feel free to reach out by sending me a message! I’d love to help you on this journey.

Let’s make your vision a reality!

The most common response I receive regarding leadership development is, "I'm good."

While that may be true, why not explore areas for improvement in team dynamics, performance, compensation plans, career paths, conflict management, negotiation skills, and more?

I understand that no one wants to admit they need help. It's something I struggle with too. However, asking for help doesn't make you weaker. It shows that you are ready for new growth opportunities.

Personally, I have two coaches who assist me with different aspects of my life.

Growth comes to those who are inspired and motivated to tackle difficult challenges.

🚀 Creativity: The Leadership Superpower No One Talks About

When people think about great leaders, they talk about vision, strategy, and ex*****on.

But there’s one skill that’s consistently overlooked—creativity.

✅ Creative leaders adapt faster. The world is changing rapidly, and those who think outside the box are the ones who stay ahead.

✅ Creative leaders solve problems better. The best solutions aren’t always obvious. Creativity helps leaders find new angles and fresh approaches.

✅ Creative leaders inspire action. The most influential leaders don’t just give orders—they tell compelling stories, spark ideas, and challenge the status quo.

💡 Yet, creativity is often dismissed as something for artists—not business leaders. But creativity isn’t about painting or music—it’s about thinking in new ways.

🎯 Want to become a more creative leader? Start by asking better questions, encouraging diverse perspectives, and challenging assumptions.

Small Business Digital Marketing Tip

Are you finding it difficult to navigate technology while trying to grow or scale your business?

For many years, people have felt that social media platforms, SaaS providers, and application developers have complicated their lives rather than simplifying them.

With over 25 years of experience in the technology field, I can appreciate the improvements that have been made, but I also recognize that we still have a long way to go. Many business owners struggle with the decision-making process when it comes to purchasing software. The uncertainty about whether the software will integrate well with their existing systems often adds to the frustration.

It's understandable that deciding what to buy and when to make that purchase can be one of the most confusing aspects of running a business, regardless of its size. You're not alone in feeling this way.

Curiosity Center can help you determine what to buy and when to make that purchase. If you're interested in growing your business, feel free to send me a message.
