Are you part of someone else’s plan?
Of course, sometimes its fine to drift along with the current. I have no objection to being part of the sales figures of people that make suits, run restaurants, and sell ice-cream on summer evenings. Sometimes it is good just to be a customer, just queue up, and be looked after.
But, do you want to do that with your business? I like my business choices to be intentional. I like to do this kind of planning annually, in an organized way, but every now and then a challenge comes along and one just has to go back to your criteria, your reason for doing what you do, and check - am I on the right path?
That challenge is, of course, the proposed new compliance regime. It isn't here yet - heck, we don't even have a new government capable of passing the law yet - but it will come. Besides, you are already being asked the question.
