One of the most dangerous and damaging practices of business owners is MICROMANAGING their business.

It is particularly prevalent in entrepreneurial businesses. The first commitment a business owner must make is to stop acting like an employee and start thinking and acting like a CEO. A transition is necessary for the business owner to think and behave more strategically and less tactically in their role as owner. The business owner must stop micromanaging and delegate. The business owner must start reducing the amount of time they spend involved in the daily transactions of their business.

Top 5 Warning Signs that Your Business Is Declining
The hardest thing to admit for a business owner is the fact that his/her business is slowly dying. After all, what business owner would want to admit that his/her once future hope of building an empire is forever to remain in the realm of wishful thinking?

Home Based Business Team Creates A New Paradigm
Home based business team almost sounds like an oxymoron. Typically working from home means you are working for yourself and by yourself. The business circle is usually limited to a few people doing the work. New technologies make it possible for like minded entrepreneurs to change the paradigm of the home based business owner. Prior to the Internet, people purchased distributorships for the privilege of selling quality products for a commission. Many of the baby boomer generation will remember the visits of the Watkins and Fuller Brush man. Instead of working alone, entrepreneurs are finding like minded individuals who want to work as a member of a home based business team.

How to Be Open-Minded to New Ideas
If you have definite ideas about how things are or how they should be, you’ve probably had someone tell you to “keep an open mind.” Having an open mind is important to succeed in life. Embracing, or at least considering, new ideas and technologies is vital to our personal growth. Are you willing to consider someone else’s opinion? Can you look at facts that may seem suspect and analyze them without bias? If you’re open-minded, you can be flexible when met with new ideas. It means you can adapt to new experiences. Being able to think critically is a vital component of being open-minded. In our quickly changing technological world, it’s important to keep an open mind in order to keep up and stay current, rather than missing out on all the new things around us...

The Power of Yes!
You probably already know that positive people are more fun to be around; that it doesn't feel good when people say 'no' to you; and, that being open-minded is generally better than being critical or close-minded. But what you may not know is just how overwhelming the evidence is a 'yes' mentality can help you in almost every aspect of your life and business. My aim is to hit you hard and repeatedly with the 'yes' hammer until it's permanently embossed on your head and in your mind. My hope is that you re-wire your knee-jerk reaction for a 'yes' auto-response -- or better yet, you re-wire your brain so that you consciously choose a 'yes' or 'no' response with no knee-jerking at all!
