| In a previous article we discussed taking action. Nothing happens in our lives or business until we take action. Just as the saying goes, you can’t move a parked car. I would like to go a little deeper into this subject. |

Business Ethics
| |
| Business ethics are a hot topic these days; with everything from insider trading to employee theft on the rise, it is no wonder that businesses are beginning to focus on the impact of ethical leadership. However, along with this new focus comes a lot of "gray area". Many times, managers are forced to decide on issues where there are arguments on both sides - a problem that makes ethical decision-making very difficult. |

PROBLEM SOLVING
| |
| It isn’t that they can’t solve the problem. It is that they can’t see the problem.
The Scandal of Father Brown (1935).
People differ not only in how much they worry, but also in what they worry. Quite often the way we see the problem is the problem. It would be helpful to start with self, your motivation, and what you were looking for. |

How to Avoid Getting Off Track When You Cold Call
| |
| Let’s say you’re on a cold call, and it’s going well. You have a strong connection with your potential client. But the conversation starts to wander off the topic. And you’re not sure how you can regain focus without the other person feeling pressured.
Well, the traditional sales approach tells us to always focus on getting the sale. So when cold calling conversations start to wander, we’re taught to bring the focus back to our linear sales road, including having the potential client answer certain questions.
The problem is that these questions only look like parts of a conversation. They’re actually covert attempts to make others to believe they need our solution. |

Coaching with a Solutions Focus
| |
| In most coaching situations, identifying and analysing a problem becomes the precursor for action planning and subsequent change. Breaking from this traditional mould, ‘solutions focused coaching’ emphasises the solution rather than the problem, the future rather than the past and a positive focus on what is ‘going well’ rather than the negative approach of what is ‘not working’. |

Elements of a Sales Letter and What Makes a Good Headline?
| |
| The first step to write a good sales letter is to describe the problem: When people first reach your sales letter, you need to put them in the right frame of mind. Talk about their problem -- what you think has brought them to your page or email. Tell a story that empathizes with them, telling your personal story. Make the problem bigger, so that they feel like they need a solution. Every sales letter has a problem, that of paying for your product. You want to make their problem big enough, so that it's more worth their while to pay for your product than to suffer whatever problem brought them to you. |

How the Gift of Giving Can Bring You Closer to Success
| |
| The gift of giving is perhaps one of the most important things you can do to get you closer to achieving success. It’s definitely important to focus your efforts on getting to your goal, but the one problem with goal setting is that you tend to have a “Me” focused attitude. You should focus on the gift of giving, and find a way where you can add value to someone else. Zig Ziglar said it best: “You can have everything you want in life if you will just help enough other people get what they want.” |

| I don't mean to paint a picture that depicts CEO's as the problem, but in some companies, they are the problem.

Is it on the problem or the blessing? On what you can do, or what the

On the bad economy or on how you can create great success because
of the economic situation? |
