​We are halfway through 2018!  Can you believe it? At this point in the year, it is always a good time to review how your business has done the first part of the year and make any changes or pivots for the remaining two quarters. 

I learned a while ago that I do best planning one to two quarters ahead. With a small business, things change fast and we are affected by many things. Therefore, I do not have a long-term strategic plan based on a timeline.  Now this is not to be confused with not having a vision.  I very much have a vision for Freedom Makers and it is a long-term vision made up of phases and milestones.

Once I reach a milestone, I move onto accomplishing another one. And once I meet all of the milestones that fall under a phase, I am ready to move onto the next phase.  If I were to tackle everything in my vision at once, it would get jumbled and not receive the attention each goal deserves.
