There's a great line from the book "The paradox of choice" by Barry Schwartz - “The more options we have, the less satisfied we are with whatever we choose.”
I was drawn to it recently when I was getting a coffee and some breakfast in Belfast - the choices we make and what influences them.
Location, price, familiarity, curiosity, recommendation - whatever motivates you puts pressure on the business owner to not only get it right first time but to keep getting it right, then changing, then going again all the while watching out for rising costs in produce, energy and the ever-decreasing attention span of humans - both staff and customers.
I have watched on as SEED have taken their successful, food-outlet business into the world of high value content, via social media, email and events.
If you are not familiar with them, check out their places in Dungannon and Lisburn Road - also their social media content SEED People on instagram and the brilliant content from chef, StevieB.

The 'Process is the Goal' - Part II. Advice for everyone else.
The second part of the podcast devoted to the importance of Process is itself broken down into 2 parts - the practical part of the process that impacts the physical work you do and the prices you have (or don't have) that helps you emotionally and mentally prepare for the work that you need to do.
Sales is not an easy job and you can find yourself under pressure from a number of different angles day in day out.
Having a process in place or putting some order into your work means that you are able to build up momentum in your work and to create a particular rhythm' to your selling.
Having a clear objective within allows you to focus on progressing in a particular way but also gives you more certainty that you are in the right place, the right job with the right opportunities beckoning.
Giving yourself the best chance you can is all you can do - how you start your day, your mindset, the structure you out to your work and how you deal with the challenges are all very much within your control.
Once you find the right process that works for you.
