Episode 1168 – Crush Tough Tasks in Your Cleaning Business with This Mindset Hack!
Suzanne Bandick Shares the Magic of Segment Intending
In a fun and insightful episode, Mike Campion sat down with Suzanne Bandick to dig into a powerful mindset tool—segment intending. Suzanne, known for helping Cleaning Nation shift from knowing what to do to actually doing it, introduced this simple yet effective practice that can transform both life and business outcomes.
What Is Segment Intending?
Suzanne kicked things off by explaining the concept of segment intending. Each part of your day can be broken into smaller “segments,” like your morning routine, a drive, or even a meeting. By focusing on the desired outcome for each segment, you’re much more likely to get the results you want. Whether it’s a smooth commute or a productive meeting, this mindset helps you approach each moment with intention.
Make Every Conversation Count
Mike and Suzanne shared how this tool can work wonders in business, especially for cleaning company owners. Imagine having a tough conversation about raising prices. Instead of fearing rejection, you could focus on the idea that the customer will appreciate the value you provide. By setting that intention before the meeting, you’re way more likely to walk away with a win, not a worry.
Mindset Over Magic: You Get What You Focus On
Mike threw in some fun personal stories, like how he used to joke about always finding the best parking spots—and how often it worked! The key, as Suzanne pointed out, is that we usually get what we focus on. If you’re always expecting the worst, that’s likely what you’ll get. But if you start expecting good things, the odds start to shift in your favor.
Success Is No Accident
High-level athletes know this secret well, Suzanne noted. They often visualize their wins so thoroughly that when they finally achieve them, it feels like they’ve been there before. It’s not all about talent or hard work—mindset plays a huge role. And the same goes for business. If you’re a cleaning company owner, why not give yourself every advantage by using segment intending in your everyday operations?
Take Action and Shift Your Focus
As Mike wrapped up, he made a call to action: don’t just listen to this episode and move on. Take a moment before your next meeting, sales call, or even personal task, and set an intention for how you want it to go. It might seem simple, but over time, this practice could be the game-changer your business and life need!
