Do you want to builda sandcastle?
I watch my children play in the sand, trying to compact it to get that perfect sandcastle form
necessary to build up the turrets without it crumbling down.
They gather momentum adding more and more sand to the turrets, until eventually they are
satisfied that the sizeable castle is now ready for the big finish.
They fill their buckets with water pouring it into the moat, before realising its quicker to link
the moat straight to the sea.
Gathering motion
In some instances the sand simply isn’t right for compacting, the soft fluffy sand is useless
for making sandcastles. In business sometimes a product or service just isn’t right either, on
the other hand sometimes the sand is perfect to make a sand castle similar to your business
everything is right and it will gather motion and quickly take off.
Drive business forward
Every small business or startup hits obstacles you have to get around them and
unfortunately not every product or service will be successful, sometimes the market just
isn’t right it’s either too early or too late for it to hit victory.
Saying no to the right things is occasionally the best thing to do. Deciding whether you
pursue or target another area is the way to success. Modifying your ideas, coming up with a
new formula and focusing on other areas is key to driving business forwards, in the same
way you combed the beach as a child for the perfect sand to make the finest and largest
castle you possibly could.
Tiny Changes
The most refined and successful businesses have failed numerous times. They kept adapting
and making tiny changes every time they hit a dilemma. They kept pushing forwards and

2. built their business in the same way they built that sandcastle on the beach all those years
ago, your determination will pay off in the end.
