At this point, you might be skeptical…wondering, “Hey, if life balance is so great, why isn’t everybody looking for it?” Actually, everyone is looking for life balance in some aspect, even if it’s only subconsciously. The problem is that there are any number of things that get in the way, and when a person gets into a rut, it is difficult to get out.

What is inertia and how does it affect your small business? Are there any strategies to deal with "Prospect Inertia"?

Inertia, It’s Not a River in Egypt

How to be an Audience Arsonist - Light a Fire of Possibility
A body at rest tends to stay at rest… - Sir Isaac Newton Sir Isaac got it right: a body at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Want proof? Peek around the curtain at audience members listening to a dull, flat, run-of-the-mill speaker at your next convention. Those bodies aren’t moving. They’re at rest. In fact, some of them are asleep. An "audience arsonist" can overcome that inertia and light a fire that moves them to action. The value of any event – a global company’s annual gathering, a sales convention, association meeting or any other professional event – is in the information and attitude audience members take with them on those return flights home. An Audience Arsonist is unique. They have the ability to "light a fire" under an audience and move them to action. Learn how to do that.
