Without action, everything remains an assumption. Maybe I would have made it, maybe I wouldn't. Be it true or not, the result through experience speaks a lot. Doing your best to do that necessary follow up can become the needed game changer. It is always from going somewhere that one meets something new. Who knows what that new thing can do to your life. I have stories to tell concerning this especially in the field of business.
Before going any further, I just want to say a happy Sunday to you ALL on this chain. It's a beautiful Sunday, one which I took action by reaching out to church to worship my creator. Life challenges can so much hit you that you forget some primary duties. You've had a busy work week, you closed late, you have some debt to pay out or you couldn't just meet up your target. Well, the first stage of life is living, without the breath, you wouldn't even have the privilege to worry.

That was by the way, heading back to our main content, I had such an experience yesterday. Trying to manage an upcoming business can be very challenging. From not enough income, to not enough machinery and man-power as the case may be. We are gradually expanding and the truth remains, I am not all full of knowledge of our newly incorporated sector. I still have a lot to learn. At first, I thought it was something I could handle without much stress but it seems I was misinforming myself.
How do you give your client the due information about a service and on time. You know postponing a deal can be a dangerous thing in the sense that somewhere else may overtake you in the process. So when I was summarising work for yesterday, I got that call that needed a feedback.
The fact was that I was low on knowledge and to have what to say, I will have to hit some places to get the right information. I just wished I could push it till Next week Monday yet something in me was urging that I take the needed action so that I do not remain on the surface should the client call back.

It was a good suggestion anyway, I had to head out to do the sourcing. It was late anyway, something I was considering I may end up getting no valuable information in the end. On reaching the possible nearby referencing market, I made my request known and it happened I was able to get some vital information although it was all on a rush. I was forwarded to the next office when it seemed the actual product I was enquiring wasn't available. I got to their other shop and there was a further explanation, breaking down what I really wanted.
It ended up I could get the product but I was very sure of a similar price range and product quality should the client put in any urgent call. The explanation I got from the store was something worth that time. In short, I learnt in the process that there is still enough ground for our business to cover in order to meet up. When I enter a big and long standing business place, I am always encouraged that I am not actually wasting time building mine.
To conclude, let me add, one can never tell what lies ahead until a positive step is taken towards that direction. I am NOW loaded with the needed information which I will be passing down to the client before today runs out. At least, it will boost his confidence that we know what we are doing even though we are just new to the field. I have learnt a lot these few days ever since I had to be marketing and sourcing for the right products for better service delivery. You don't get to know what's trending with folded ARMs, get out there. Beyond the field of business, life in general requires we 'take action'
