Stop Trying To Whistle A Symphony

"No one can whistle a symphony. It takes an orchestra to play it."~H. E. Luccock


Are you trying to create a symphony all by yourself? Being the lone entrepreneur, not needing anyone's help? Guess what? No one has ever made it on their own! We all need other people and we need their help.

Look at all successful people and you will see a whole team of other individuals that worked on the success of that one individual. Who is on your team? Who is working to make you a success? Why are they helping you? Why aren't others helping you?  Have you asked them for help??

This "New Economy" requires that we spend even more time on those relationships where we can help others succeed and they can help us succeed. Are you spending the time doing that? Why not? Are you doing what you have always done? How's that working for you?

Action:
Find those people who are working towards your success and let them know that you appreciate them and how important they are to you. I have a whole list of people and I'm sure that you do to.

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Prisoner of Your Thoughts?

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”~Viktor E. Frankl

The last of the human freedoms..."to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances." That means a new economy, a lousy boss, a bad relationship, any set of circumstances! It is your CHOICE!!! And only yours!

You get to choose your own way. It's not dictated by anyone other than you...unless you give someone else that power. A lot of people have given their power away to someone else. Don't let that be you!

Shakespeare said “Make not your thoughts your prisons.” Are you a prisoner of your thoughts? Think about that. What thoughts are hold you back, holding you prisoner? When you examine those thoughts, you will find that there is no truth to the thoughts that are holding you prisoner. It's just a story that you are telling yourself so it becomes a story that you live.

Action:
Know and realize that no circumstance can dictate your attitude to you. You are the only one who can choose your attitudes. Take today to examine the thoughts that are holding you prisoner. After analyzing them realize that you don't need them anymore. Make a prison break, in your mind!

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Choosing My Attitude

You Control Your Destiny

"Understanding that we control our own destiny is the key to our success in life. Simply put, when we decide how we want our life to be we must take responsibility and move forward."~Mac Anderson

Do you realize that? YOU control your own destiny! It's not controlled by the economy, your boss, your spouse, your parents...YOU control your own destiny!! The challenge is knowing what you want it to look like and being specific! Most people really don't know what they want. They want to be "rich." To be "happy." What do those things mean?? Nothing to your brain. You need to be specific in knowing what you want and why you want it.

Why do you want to be "rich?" And what does "rich" mean to you? Put a number on that. Say, "I want to make $750k a year!" Your mind can get around that. Now, why do you want to make $750k a year? The whys will be your driving force when you slow down or are depressed or not feeling excited about what you are doing.

Action:
Be specific about what you want out of life. Real specific. Realize that it's your choice...no one elses, only yours.

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

What Are You Selling?

"We are our most important product."~George Foreman

Listen to the man who has sold over 150 million products since leaving the pugilism ring. Do you realize that you must always sell yourself before you sell your product or service?

How do you sell yourself?

Our economy, while becoming more technically advanced is moving back to a relationship economy. It used to be the best whiz-bang thing won, now people want to know more about who is selling them the stuff, want to know more about how you do, what you do and if you are worthy of their business.

Have you thought about that lately? I hope so, because if you haven't then the "economy" is going to be getting you down. A shift is happening and you need to be aware of it or it will pass you by and without knowing it, you'll blame the economy for your lack of success...And not know the real problem with your business.

"People don't care about what you know, until the know how much you care." It's an old saying that is coming back into vogue. Start caring about your customers. Start building those relationships. Start by selling yourself.

"We are our most important product."

Leaving Tracks

"He who walks in another's tracks leaves no footprints."~Joan Brannon

Are you leaving tracks or are you just following another's footsteps? Would you like to leave a legacy? Why or why not?

People who are authentic are the people that are blazing new trails, walking the "road less traveled." Are you authentic with your clients, prospects, friends, and family or are you just "playing" the roles dictated to you by society?

In this "New Economy," authenticity will be what wins the day and make life better for you. Look at every aspect of your life, are you being authentic?

It's real easy to follow someone, but it takes courage and a positive attitude to blaze your own trail. Can you do that or are you stuck into the mentality that says I must do what everyone else does?

Challenge yourself to blaze a new trail - today!
