Welcome to my new blog!
Why would I possibly want to create a blog? Well...in truth, I never really wanted to. But, I started to feel left out. All my technology friends and colleagues had blogs. Why did they have something to say, but I have nothing? I felt that I had to correct this inequality...so I am choosing this venue to talk about the small business space. Logic Speak is really nothing more than a small business, designed for small businesses. So it would stand to reason that we had better know a little something about them, and if we don't...we need to learn. Every day.
Segway into my first blog...learning. As a small business, you don't have the luxury of "knowing it all". Things come at you every day that you either didn't know you didn't know, or that you just didn't have time to learn before you got into the business in the first place. This shouldn't scare you...it is the natural order; the way things were meant to be. Instead of being afraid of lack of knowledge, it is something to be embraced by a small business. Lack of knowledge is nothing more than an opportunity to learn, grow, improve and eventually the ultimate path to success!
So, instead of hoarding knowledge and sitting on what you know, develop really good "looking" skills. Know where to look, how to look, what to look at, and ultimately, your company will develop a 'culture of learning'. Some of the things I didn't know 3 years ago, I have learned...(and of course, some of them, I still haven't learned, but I'm working on it!)
One of the most important keys to success as a small business is in the ability to be agile, flexible and quick learning...so get to it, read a blog or two...you just might learn something you didn't know!
