say

“It seems to be too easy to tell

ourselves we can’t afford to get help,

we don’t know the right person, we

couldn’t imagine trusting someone else

to work in our business…ultimately it’s

easy to come up with excuses as to

why not to proceed.

The key is in acknowledging the true

cost to YOU, your business, your

relationships, your health and your

finances of NOT getting help on

board… cos as you’ve touched on

here, these costs are big and slow

down your progress in a massive way.”
