Small Business Owners Can Learn a Thing or Two From Tiger Woods

Everyone watching the U.S. Open last week knew Tiger Woods was hurting. It was obvious that his double stress fracture and torn ligament were a source of excruciating pain. But he played on, marched over 21 miles and won the title during a sudden death match against Rocco Mediate. What can business owners learn from this amazing athlete? Plenty.

1. Keep your eye on the prize – It takes fortitude and focus and concentration to attain any goal, and it isn’t always easy or fun. Tiger proved once again the importance of keeping your eye on the prize. Maintain the same focus in your business.

2. Have a game plan – While Tiger Woods makes it look effortless, he never steps onto the course without a game plan. Do the same with your business. Plan ahead. Study the competition. Know your strengths and weaknesses. Take action to fulfill your dream.

3. Never give up – Tiger could have easily given up, in fact had every excuse to throw it in. But his incredible vision and determination kept him in the game. To succeed in business requires the same vision and determination. Never ever give up.
