As if a major pandemic that has rocked the globe isn’t enough, UK businesses also have to navigate this brand new world of Brexit. News channels are a mass with reports of the difficulties of the complications that haulage companies and supermarket retailers potentially face due to Brexit red tape. Moreover, how can businesses emotionally prepare for the Brexit train that is fast approaching?
Firstly, each business a can do mindset shift. How you think about a task can determine the approach, development, production and completion. Use the mindset behaviours below to support you through the process.
7 Mindsets for Emotional Resilience:
Mental Preparation: Become self-aware of who you are and what makes you tick, reflect on why you do what you do? This can help to align your actions with your purpose.
Stay Focused: Focusing on a task leads to success. If you believe in your abilities then anything is possible, and you are half-way there. Start visualising a better future and develop small daily actions to help you reach your goals.
Confidence in your Knowledge: Research and read to gain knowledge of your industry. Each business is different therefore, regular reading and research will increase your confidence and ability to undertake the task.
Productivity: ‘Eat the frog’ this generally means start with the hardest tasks first and tick off each task when completed. Ensure you take regular breaks and try not to spend more than an hour at a time on tasks to support the thinking process.
Plan for Success: When you plan you are creating a schedule around a specific series of actions and times to support the completion of a task. Use the SMART analogy (S = specific, M = measurable A = achievable R = realistic and T = timely) to develop a plan that works for you.
Preparation: Naturally follows planning. Prepare the additional information, documentation or supporting evidence that may be required to complete the process effectively then take action.
Accountability: The responsibility to get ready for Brexit is yours however, you are not alone. This is a transition for all UK businesses working with Europe therefore, it’s time to develop a get ready for Brexit approach so that when post pandemic arrives you are ready to operate successfully.
