Learning how to create value is a skill.
Slight changes in your thinking could lead to the business breakthroughs you are looking for. If you are going crazy trying to take your business to the next level and you keep on starting over, that may not be the best strategy to employ. Start looking to do things differently and stop trying to change everything in one motion.

Awesome stuff, David!
I was there in January. The seminar was great (except for the part at the end when my head exploded with all the new information…).
Your advice was phenomenal to say the absolute least.
Thank you, again,

@ Leo
Thank you sir. How are you? Head exploding with information? The question is what new things are you able to see and do now?

No, thank you, sir.
I used to think that the “holy grail” was somewhere along the unblazed trail. And to some extent, that is true. My mistake was thinking that it was always absolutely true…
As you say here, sometimes it is just a small tweak or new variation on what already works. I think that a lot of us have this need to re-invent the wheel. When in reality, simply just improving on it by offering something that speaks to some problem (nitrogen filled tires or “run-flats” or even offering a new service on the existing tires people already buy) is all that it takes.
This was a huge step for me.
I also took your advice about mind/concept mapping. Incredible stuff. Talk about the leaves/trees from the forest… The funny thing is that somewhere in all those un-executed business plans of mine (newly converted to mindmaps, of course) I just may have found a holy grail (or at least a holy dixie cup, which is just fine by me, for now).
So once again: Your advice was phenomenal to say the absolute least.

Leo,
Keep moving Dear Sir.
Getting it out of your head and on paper is the first step to success.
