Halfway

Is your proverbial cup half empty or half full? We only ask because 2011 is halfway over - or do we still have half of the year left to enjoy?

Either way you look at it, yesterday marked the halfway point of the year. This is a golden time to evaluate your goals and "to-do list" and take a look at progress. Whether you have New Years resolutions, a 5-year or 10-year plan, things you want to accomplish this year...ask yourself:

1. Am I still motivated?
2. Is my plan working?
3. Am I celebrating the successes?
4. How can I make improvements?

In our office at Palmetto Pressure Clean we have a "Complete" stack and a "Hanging" stack of estimates and invoices. They are aligned side by side in an in/out tray on top of Lana's desk. The hanging stack remains intact - estimates that have not been converted into sales. The complete stack is now empty. A reminder that, while we have provided pressure washing services to hundreds of people already this year, we don't slow down the pace in reaching hundreds more. A reminder that the people and businesses we have yet to hear from in 2011 are no less deserving of our 100% satisfaction guarantee and highest quality professional exterior cleaning service than the ones who are already familiar with us from January to June.

Final blog thought: Embrace the half-fullness of 2011 and challenge of making the most of the remainder of the year!
