It’s not every year that we can get 36 holes in on the first weekend of November here in the Midwest but that’s exactly what we did. Saturday’s round was brisk and chilly as the cloud cover and cool breezes lingered behind a passing cold front but Sunday’s round was under a sunny blue sky. Even though there were leaves covering the fairways and many of the greens, it was still great to swing the clubs and try to execute at mid-season form.

Not every swing was perfect but then again, not every swing during the season was perfect. It was still nice to make a few birdies and have a few “pure” shots filed away in the memory banks for the next time we can tee it up. Eventually the clubs will need to be stored away in the basement or garage as the frosty winter arrives but until then, the season’s not over yet.

Are You Still Playing?

You probably started putting the final touches on your 2015 Business Plan about 12 months ago. Here you are now with two months left in the year to execute the final few transactions that just might make the difference in surpassing your goals or falling just short. Don’t put the clubs away.

The weather might have changed but the course hasn’t. Don’t worry about the outside elements that might affect your day-to-day activity; instead, focus on taking each day “one shot at a time.” Make the phone calls you need to make. Knock on the doors you should be knocking on. Deliver the dialogues with the same passion and enthusiasm as you did back when the new year started and your scorecard was still empty and awaiting the round of your life.

The rest of your foursome is waiting for you on the tee. Build Relationships, Solve Problems and Have Fun are looking forward to seeing some of your best swings of the year.

Play well…the season’s not over yet.
