I have a business where I can see the daily sales come through in real time.
But whenever I do this, it’s a rollercoaster for my emotions.
If it’s a quiet day, I can’t help but get dejected and I then check more to see if things improve.
If it’s a busy day, I can’t help but get excited and I then check more to see if things continue.
But when I refrain from looking at the daily sales and instead check weekly, it tells a much smoother story.
And my emotional state is much calmer.
I get virtually no benefit from looking at each data point in isolation (as tempting as it is to do so).
What is something in your life that deserves to be seen as a bigger picture?
