#1 Factor: Showing Up.

When we finally got to the field, the ground was wet, it was cold out, and immediately Evelyn's tears began to fall. She was uncomfortable. My 4-year-old daughter and I had arrived at her first soccer practice at 9 am on a Saturday, a time when she was usually relaxing comfortably inside, having breakfast with her brother. 

While the other kids ran around on the field, the coaches and I encouraged Evelyn to join them. But every time we pushed, she resisted, holding onto my leg tighter and tighter, and crying loudly. 

The more we pushed, the more she resisted. 

Then we both started to feel the heat from the judgmental eyes of some other parents. The glaring looks seemed to say, "Hey dude, shut your kid up. We are trying to have a game here," and conveyed a clear message that they knew I wanted it more than she did. With tears in her eyes, Evelyn asked if we could leave and go back to the car. 

That would have been an easy thing to do…..

And see how it relates to your business!
