What To Do When You Just Can't Concentrate

| My email in-box is jam packed, I have several calls from sales people that I haven't returned yet, my desk is a mess, and I'm finding it very hard to concentrate. What in the world is going on here! |

Five Business Truths to Learn By Heart

| There have been times when I wanted to tattoo these truths on people's foreheads, but that probably wasn't my best idea ever.

You Gotta Make a Comeback
| |
| No matter how bad the pain is, if you're willing to make an effort -- and at times it may require a fierce effort -- you can come back bigger, better and stronger. Lance Armstrong overcame incredible odds to become a seven-time Tour de France (the most prestigious race in cycling) champion. |

Why Use A Certified Bookkeeper Instead Of Doing Your Own Bookkeeping?
| |
| As a member of the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers I am often asked why a small business owner needs to use an outside bookkeeping expert, rather than doing the bookkeeping themselves to save money.
This is an easy question to answer because it is a “no-brainer”.
There are times in your life when only a qualified expert will do. For example, if you are about to undergo brain surgery... |

The 8 Things You Must Know To Build A Great Website

Friend or Foe the Importance of Creating Great First Impressions
| |
| We often refer to the brain as having two hemispheres: the left, largely responsible for logic, and the right, predominately responsible for creativity. This description fits what we know to be the cortex or new brain; however, there is a third dimension, the hypo-thalamus or pre-historic brain, which is in fact the brain stem and is solely responsible for instincts.

Why Change Is So Hard
| |
| A single human brain is estimated to have the switching capacity of the entire U.S. telephone network.It can hold up to 100 trillion bits of information, dwarfing the capacity of any computer ever developed yet. But the brain can act as a prison unless we learn how to control it. The brain can, and often does, lick us into automatic perceptions and behaviors that are inaccurate, ineffective, or downright destructive. How the human brain works is worth noting if we want to change.

Positive Thinking
| |
| Just what can positive thinking do? To be candid, some people have given positive thinking a bad name. I can't stand to hear some gung-ho individual say that with positive thinking you can just do "anything." If you think about that one for a moment, you recognize the absurdity of it. As a ridiculous example, I'm a positive thinker, but I could never slam-dunk a basketball or perform major surgery - or even minor surgery - on anyone and expect that person to survive. Nate Newton, the 300-plus pound lineman for the Dallas Cowboys, is positive, optimistic and outgoing but he'd be a complete failure as a jockey or a ballet dancer. |

Categorizing Your Prospects
| |
| Coming off of a slowdown in business you need to have an accurate assessment of the “condition” of your customers. For the sake of simplicity and giving your salesforce a meaningful tool I have identified 4 specific customer types that really isn’t brain surgery but common sense. It is more important than ever to qualify your customers so you are better equipped to learn how to sell them and when to sell them, making an effective counseling interview essential. The four I have identified are:
Loyal Customers - Buying
Loyal Customers - Not Buying
Previous Customers - Lost to the Competition
Never Bought - Possible Intenders

It's in the Brain - leadership and social issues
| |
| It is now fairly well accepted that the brain has three quite clear areas from which to control our behaviour – the area closest to the brain stem (sometimes called ‘the reptilian brain”), the limbic area (sometimes called “the mammalian brain”), and the cortical area (sometimes called “the human brain”. There is hard data that shows where teachers engage with students, the students become more responsive to learning and they don’t want to “let the teacher down”. In turn this has an impact by reducing antisocial behaviour in the community around the school. There is also hard data that shows where employees are engaged with their work and with their co-workers, there is significant reduction in lateness, absenteeism, sickness, and abuse of trust. |

Grandma’s Lesson
| |
| Thanksgiving this year was a fabulous family affair. We had the entire crew of aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc. including dogs and cats romping around my aunt Cherie’s house. My grandmother was there cooking up a storm despite having had brain surgery to remove a tumor just nice months before. What a woman. |

How the Economy Affects Your Brain
| |
| It’s a well known fact among the Mental Science community that chronic stress can actually alter brain anatomy. Stress (depression, fear, etc.) may cause specific areas of the brain to shrink in size. As the brain areas shrink, their functions (brain chemical secretions and electrical impulses) are altered. This anatomical adaptation to stress will ultimately affect how a person thinks, behaves, and reasons.
In other words, changes in the brain due to stress, makes us less able to think of logical solutions to our problems.
In addition to the irrational problem solving capacity produced by stress, the actual brain cells will change according to your thoughts. |
