A short YouTube monologue by Donald Burns (uploaded Dec 20, 2023) in which he shares a personal anecdote—his father’s advice to "stop digging" when in a hole—to illustrate how repeating failing actions deepens problems. He applies the metaphor to restaurant owners stuck working in their restaurants and offers coaching help, directing viewers to therestaurantcoach.com to book a call.
My father once told me that when you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. And it didn't make sense to me until years later when I was stuck on a project and I realized that I was doing exactly that. Now maybe you can relate. You're not getting the results you want and you just keep doing the same thing, hoping that something going to magically change. You keep digging yourself deeper and deeper into the hole. But if you would just pause, look up, and get a different perspective, you might see someone reaching down to you with a hand to help you out. Now, if you're stuck working in your restaurant and you want a hand on learning how to work on your restaurant, allow me to extend my hand to you and show you exactly how. Just head over to therestaurantcoach.com and book a call with me.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
