In the movie trilogy, Lord of the Rings, there is a conversation between Gandalf the Grey, wizard, advisor and all around smart person, and Frodo, the young, courageous, but vulnerable hero.
Amidst some considerable difficulties their group is having, Frodo says he wishes that the situation were not so bleak, that if he could, he'd prefer not to have the responsibilities he carries.
Gandalf, in a kind, supporting and yet penetrating manner, replies that we do not always get to choose the circumstances which we encounter, and then the zinger. "All we have is to decide what to do with the time given to us," says he.
With clarity about "what to do with the time given to us", we can move forward confidently in a direction of our own choosing, regardless of the temporary distractions. It's the course our lives take more than the momenatry sidetracks that create a business, or a life of value.
If, as an entrepreneur, you sometimes feel you don't know the best use of your time; if you are confused about what activities have real and high value for you and your company and what's a waste of time; if you feel as if a plan for your business would be useful, perhaps we can be of value.
