A positive work-out for your brain for business owners and would-be business owners alike
| |
| There are many of us that go to the gym to give our bodies a work-out, but how many of you give you mind a work-out too?
I would hazard a guess that not many people give their brain a physical work-out; there are those of you that have bought the "Nintendo Brain Tease", which is said to help our brains and our memory. However, this is not many people that even do this and what I have in mind is to change your thinking to a positive mode of thinking, so here goes my idea for a brain work out:
1. Each day you wake up make sure you "Think in a positive way". Begin your day with a big smile and take your mind off to a lovely place, a special place you would love to be. This could be a Caribbean Island or by your favourite lake, it does not matter, all that matters is that when you think about this place it makes you feel really good. |

Lesson #2: Develop a Customer-Focused Philosophy
| |
| “Let’s say you decide to buy a car – red, two-door,” says Dell. “All sold out – four months to get one – but a really convincing salesperson talks you into the blue, four-door and probably the rust-proofing too. The salesperson gets a nice commission, when she actually sold you a car you didn’t want. Then, the dealer sends a signal back to the factory that blue four-doors are selling really well – build some more!” Contrary to this, Dell’s philosophy is that, “We’ll listen, and we’ll respond…It’s about the customer. It’s that simple.” |

Inside Intel: Success Factors of a Company that Inspired an Industry
| |
| Today, Intel is ranked 49th on Fortune 500’s list of the top revenue grossing companies. Noyce and Moore may no longer be in charge of the daily running of the business they first founded in 1968; however, their impact on not only the company, but also the entire industry can still be felt. The maker of motherboard chipsets, network cards, flash memory drives, graphic chips, embedded processors and more, Intel is an innovator and a leader in the world of electronics and computing. How did two scientists who knew nothing about business become two of the most successful examples of entrepreneurship in history? |

The ABC Method of Memory Jogging
| |
| You know how frustrating it can be when you've forgotten someone’s name. I see someone at the grocery store and recognize them but can remember where I know them from or their name. Usually I go about my shopping, but what if I need to recall their name? What if it was a business gathering and I had to remember their name? Well if you can get a moment to use this simple technique it will help you recall those lost names for all the faces you remember. |

Personal Gravity Part 2 - Filters
| |
| Listening isn't just about staying quiet to hear the other person all the way the end of their thought. Listening also demands that we hear others' words with no personal filters associated with that communication. That's a much taller order than simply shutting your mouth until the appropriate time to speak. |

Context is Everything - ideas for increased productivity - Part1
| |
| How come "Context is Everything" is getting more and more attention these days? And what does it exactly mean also in the context of time management and stress management? This is exactly the question this article is going to go into - illuminating the topic with three very different examples. Enjoy the read! |
|
|
Take Note
| |
| I would like to focus on something, that at first glance, may appear rather trivial. In fact it might seem so inane that you are wondering why I am even writing about it.
It’s ‘note taking’.
I learnt a very salient, if not embarrassing, lesson in my early 20’s. When in my first sales consulting role I turned up to a sales meeting with a prospective client with no obvious note taking materials. Up until that time I had never been told to take notes by my managers. I hadn’t thought about talking notes myself. I relied on my memory. |

The Role of Celebrities in Advertising Techniques
| |
| Without endorsers, the product is lifeless and faceless. However, when endorsers become the advertising techniques used in introducing the product, then said product has brought to life. Moreover, if businesses use the face of famous celebrities, then the product has an instant fame and profits are expected to skyrocket. |

|
Making Relationships a Work of A.R.T.
| |
| But if, on the other hand, you forget about yourself and what you can get, and focus on the other person and what you can help them get, they will never let you down. One of my favourite quotes of all time is one by the world famous sales trainer Zig Ziglar. He says "You can get almost anything you want in life, if you'll just help enough other people get what they want." Do you know what other people want? Are you willing to help them get it?

ADHD Study Tips
| |
| Studying when you have ADHD can be a frustrating experience. You try really hard, but you don't seem to get the results that reflect the amount of effort you put in. Even if you write a great paper, you might forget the deadline and lose marks because of that rather than the content of your work. You might find it difficult to pay attention during a lecture, or procrastinate over preparing for your exam and then study all night in order to know the information you need. |

Punching Yourself Until They Give Up
| |
| The midlife transition is all about transforming your life from the externally-motivated value system of the adult to the internally- (that means spiritually-) motivated life that characterizes the mature individual. One key factor in this transformation — a factor that is way too often neglected — is doing a moral housecleaning. |

Optimising Learning Initiatives
| |
| Neuroscience can now tell us a lot about optimal learning processes. At the recent NeuroLeadership Summit in Boston, October 2010, Lila Divachi talked about a way to ensure memories stick for AGES. Using the accronym AGES, she talks through the neuroscience of Attention, Generation, Emotion and Spacing as the keys to improving memory rentention from training. As a student of then first Masters in Neuroscience of Leadership, the Summit provided invaluable additional research. |

PR for Musicians
| |
| Perhaps the most difficult question that a musician has to answer when it comes to public relations or marketing is - why? Isn’t having created the art enough? The short answer to that is no and particularly not now. If you want to reach your public and get your art exposure, you need to take control of your marketing and your career. This is particularly true in the music world. |

Accelerated Learning
| |
| The most important aspect of learning is being proficient in how to learn. Once you can master this ability, no new project, language or situation will again overwhelm you. And once you possess the basic techniques then, like riding a bicycle, they will be with you forever, meaning ‘the world is your oyster’.

Brand-Personality Self-Analysis
| |
| Marketing is difficult because it is unlike any other business discipline. Most of our business day is filled with left-brain tasks that may be complex but are for the most part logical and procedural in nature whereas marketing and branding are right-brain activities governed by that hated enemy of rational business thinking, psychology. |

How Much Face-Time Does Your Website Need?

| How much time does it take your website to deliver your marketing message? Assuming the site traffic you generate is the least bit interested in what you have to say, how much of what you're saying do they remember, or more to the point, how much do they need to remember? |

An Elephant Sized Sales Tip You Need Now
| |
| Look Down Lady - There's An Elephant On Your Foot!
(And this is a pachyderm in dire need of a pedicure.)
This is the ELEPHANT that hardly anyone ever asks about with their potential customer:
"Who was your previous supplier and why are you unhappy with them?"
Don't be sooooooo afraid of mentioning your competition because you're terrified you'll lose the sale too.
A BIG, elephant-sized mistake that would be.
Pssst. You need to know what your customer's expectations are of you.
You need to know what made them so unhappy with their last supplier that they dumped them (or are considering it)

Change: Will You Resist With Terror or Embrace With Wonder?

| Life is one long experience of change. Sometimes it's change we welcome. Sometimes it's change we step into apprehensively; and at other times, it's change we fight tooth and nail.

Have Laptop will Travel – the Truly Mobile Office
| |
| When many people start their own businesses, one dream that nearly always features is the ability to work in your own time, preferably in your own home. Well, I regularly work all over the world, from just a laptop. It helps that my “shop window” is my group of web sites, but I still have to talk to and meet my clients from time to time. So how do I do this from an office that fits into a small bag and weighs less than 7lb! |

Avoid The Three Most Common Time Savings Mistakes
| |
| Many people run in circles with their to-do list and cannot make any progress checking things off their list. They feel frustrated and like they cannot get off the to-do list treadmill. What if some of the things you were doing were actually contributing to your never ending to-do list cycle? What if you were actually sabotaging yourself? You may be thinking "that's impossible, I work hard everyday and do everything I can to get things checked off my to-do list, there's just not enough time".
Each minute that ticks by is another minute you absolutely cannot get back. This is it and we can choose to use our minutes wisely and with our best interests at heart or we can choose to stay on the time treadmill and continue a cycle of running without getting anywhere. |

Who are you and what do you do?

Your Value is Like a Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookie

Make Your Business Card Work for You
| |
| I expect that many business owners don't even think about it. They get used to handing out their business cards left and right, so that people are able to get in touch with them. They are doing what they are taught and told to do; making contact, keeping their name in front of people. But, have you REALLY looked at your business card? What does it really tell people? Will they have to trigger their memory to figure out what it is that you do?
When given the opportunity to be placing your business card in someone's hands, or in an advertisement, make sure you are making the most of that opportunity. |

Consciousness Coaching ® - latest trend 2008
| |
| Executive Coaching is a great tool to support the skill and character development – but what do you do if you find your ego simply resists change? Like the body rejects anything that isn’t it’s own, the ego may reject likewise. Where it is not self discovered knowledge, second hand knowledge might be perceived by the ego as foreign like a splinter of wood by the body. The ego then rejects the affirmation, the great formulas and motivational phrases and gets rid of them whether we object to it or not.
So many seminar graduates and coaching clients are fighting an impossible battle against their ego; the mind says “I am confident, powerful and charismatic” and the ego says: “Yeah right, you fool!” ... |
