Dr. Seuss Week: Day #5 Places Quite Out of the Way

"If you want to catch beasts you don't see every day, You have to go places quite out of the way, You have to go places no others can get to. You have to get cold and you have too get wet, too."~Dr. Seuss


What's the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result! If you want to catch beasts your don't see every day, or clients or new products or new things, you have to go places quite out of the way. In other words, do things differently!

When was the last time you changed something in your business or your advertising or marketing? Are you INSANE??? I don't think you are, but sometimes we get into areas of our business or our lives that we feel that we can't change, so we keep doing what we've always done.  How is that working for you?  Take a hard look at the way you do things and examine what things you could do better.  And then start doing those things!

Here's an example.  I used to belong to a lot of Chambers and networking groups.  At the end of the year, I examined all of them to see what was working and what wasn't.  So,  I stopped going to the ones that weren't working.

Change something in your business or life that hasn't been working for you. Don't let the fear of change stop you from doing it. Do it now and reap the rewards that will come.

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Get Ahead Of Yourself


"Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves -- to break our own records, to outstrip our yesterday by our today."~ Stewart B. Johnson

Are you getting ahead of yourself or are you trying to keep up and get ahead of your neighbors and friends? See, our society has made it a game about keeping up with the Joneses. All the advertising is directed at making you feel as if you need everything to keep up. And if you don't, well, you might be thrown out of Scottsdale!! I mean, come on, we have a reputation to uphold here...

How shallow have we become to buy into that crap? I sure hope that we are finding our way out and just worrying about keeping ahead of ourselves. That's where growth is! That's where change is! That's where happiness is!  Don't worry about where you stand in comparison with others, worry about where you stand in relation to where you were 6 months ago, 1 year ago.

Take a moment to think about how you can outstrip your yesterday by your today.' What would it take to make today a better day than yesterday? That's all you have to do...consciously think about how you can make today better than yesterday...and then do it!

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!
