« on: March 23, 2012, 10:34:35 pm »
Just seen a post on this site which made me cringe and got me thinking what most (edited to say many ) *my mistake* people lack in this business that we are in.

what are your thoughts, what do you think many window cleaners lack ?

Generally interested in what others think (this is not a knocking post)

A life outside window cleaning - going to work, the coming home and taking about it on the world wide web.

I don't see myself as anything more than anyone else, and no It was not one of my own posts that made me cringe or I would delete it.
Just asking a question  :-*
I do know quite a bit to be fair just not superior, I would help anyone and do.

I just reread post and edited it as should have said many, my mistake  ;)

Belief is a good one, so many people I have met over the years could achieve great things but are held back by the belief that its "only window cleaning"....

I saw the other post about a 50k investment, I would love for someone to offer me 50k as could achieve so much with that kind of money but most came back with negative comments, would rather stay as they are. So maybe ambition is the most lacking?
