Hi, this is a good question; but there is an old adage which says: "Rome was not built in a day", and while this is relevant in so many ways to life and business, there is always the question of how long again, and what next can I do!
People get anxious and worried about spending quality time and investments into something that appears to be unyielding, and sometimes at the point of giving up is just when they are poised to succeed.
Another Chinese proverb says that " a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" I would like to say further that it also ends with one single step.
Your job is to encourage your team to stay focused despite the set backs and failures, because these are the elements of their learning and experience, if there are no failures then where is the experience. If there are no setbacks, then where is the learning.
Take the famous Colonel Sanders of Kentucky fried Chicken fame, this man never tasted real success until he was at the age of retirement, even though he tried almost every profession in the book. Including politics, farm worker, insurance salesman to name a few, a highway reroute construction forced him to lose his restaurant; he had to relocate.
He never give up and never caved despite the gloom and doom that surrounded his life, instead it made him more desperate for success, and the rest as they say is history. Share this with your team
and let's hope they see the bright side. Godspeed
