A client of mine recently said to me "Every day's a school day." I loved that - we learn till we die, and we're constantly surrounded by opportunities for learning. But of all things - learning in a 16-page business questionnaire? Yes folks, that's what I found today.
I hadn't realised it was such a biggie when I started filling it in, then as it dawned on me I started to get a little peeved. But then it was suddenly too late - I'd noticed that things were jumping out at me. The questions were highlighting things for me. It asked if I'd used resources a, b, c, d, e, f and g. I'd used a bit of d and maybe c a couple of times. I realised there are a lot of things out there I could be using which I'm not. One of the traps of being a solo business is thinking you have to do it all yourself. Actually, in lots of ways, there's loads of support out there.
That's the specific point. But zooming out, the real lesson is, you can learn something useful anytime, anywhere.
