Do you have a mission statement as part of your business plan? (More basic question–do you have a business plan?) Why is having a mission important? How should it guide you? You’ve heard the talks about finding your passion. But, you may be over-whelmed in your careers. It’s just too much to think big when you’re just trying to find that house or convince a buyer to work with you!
The Importance of Your Mission
By this time of year, I hope you’ve created your business plan. But, I’ll bet you didn’t include a mission statement. Why? Because it’s not part of most of those quick, easy, one-page business planning ‘templates. Still, it’s extremely important o your success. How come? Otherwise, you don’t know whether or not the actions you decide to take will fulfill your mission. You go to all those seminar gurus and just can’t decide what’s right for you. Having a solid, well-thought out mission will clear up the cobwebs and give you focus.

How can you get done in a business day everything that needs getting done? That’s where your mission comes in. Creating your mission helps you prioritize all the things you’re supposed to do. It helps you decide what not to do. Most important, it helps you figure out
how to put YOU into your sales business successfully
