Is your Value Stream Mapping backwards?
As I was reading, actually re-reading the book, I thought how simple and intelligent that statement was. Starting at the end of the process should be the logical thing to do if you are considering developing a pull system. It is the beginning. This is very similar to my thoughts I expressed in my Mirror Marketing E-book.

Life is a Mirror

Philosophers through the ages have taught us that individuals attract the same energy they put out to the universe. If you think negative thoughts, then negativity will come back to you. If your outlook is positive and upbeat, that is how the world will approach you. I am not a philosopher myself, but I subscribe to the simple wisdom that energy begets energy. I see applications for the theory especially helpful in the working environment. I have been having some discussions with students recently and would be interested in your comments in this forum. Some people are constantly feeling besieged with problems coming at them from other people, who they say have bad attitudes. My take is that if what you see coming at you is other people that are sour, it is really a good time to take a long hard look in the mirror.

Mirror the Actions of People Who Have What You Want

When I was 20 years old I was introduced to a business opportunity which had a very solid process which, if followed, would have produced significant results. At least that's what I was told. I was a tad bit different back in those days. I had a rockin' mullet with my hair below my shoulders, an earring, but it was all business on the top ... just a little poofy business since I hadn't yet been introduced to hair product. :) The guys I met with, explained how this would be my own business and how, although I was in business for myself, I wasn't in business by myself. They committed to teach me the same system that many other people had followed to become extremely successful.

It's All You, All The Time And It's All Good!

Lesson #3: Seize The Day

When Jobs was 17 years old, he read a quote that would stay with him forever: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.” Since then, he has looked himself in the mirror every morning and asked himself whether or not he would do the same thing that day if it were his last day alive. “Whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something,” he says.

The Phone Tools & Tips Used by the Top Income Earners

Everyone uses the phone, but few use it effectively or even think it's important to learn. The first few seconds of any phone call are crucial. The moment you say "Hello," the listener on the other end of the phone forms a subconscious opinion. When you talk with your prospect face-to-face, he base's his opinion about you on such factors as facial expression, body language, hand motions and voice. On the phone, he can only rely on his ears.

How I Learned To Dance And How You Can To

Why am I penning an article titled "How I Learned To Dance And How You Can To?" Furthermore, why should you care? Good questions. Do you remember when you were learning the latest dance steps as a teenager? You would get together with your friends and practice the latest steps. Remember the swaying of the hips, the popping of the fingers, clapping your hands, the fancy foot movements, singing along with the music and having so much fun and laughter making missteps. Oh, I intended to say mistakes and actually enjoying the mistakes because you knew they were a necessary process to learning the dance.

What Is Happening On Your Outside Is An Indication Of What Is Happening For You Inside.

What happens in your life is never about another person, place thing or event. It is always about you. Look at what is happening around you and in your life. Your life is a reflection or your mirror of what is going on inside you. It is up to you to see and feel these events as gifts that you can use to improve a part of your life that is lacking, no matter how bad you think these events are.

Are you in a 'BS' Business?

A Balance Sheet Business, or 'BS Business', is a business set up solely for the purposes of generating money and extracting shareholder returns.

Is Your Self-Image Working For You?

Life sometimes throws us curve balls that we have to deal with-these are the "have-tos." Life becomes boring and difficult when you're only doing the things you have to do to get where you don't want to be. If your Core Desire is to speak confidently in public, how do you acquire this ability? First, you've got to love what you are talking about, or at least have a great deal of interest in it. Knowledge is important, but it's not as critical. Another valuable way to exude a confident aura when speaking in public is to take your mind off your performance and put it on the gift in the message you are giving. If you believe in your message, have strong feelings about it, and are not focusing on how people might judge your performance, you will do just fine.

Time and Tide Waits for no Man or Woman

As the glimmer of morning sun shines through the blinds and I start to uncurl under the duvet, one eye opens then the second, the brain links into gear what day is it??? The start of a new day, new challenges and new mountains to climb. As I make my way to the bathroom and meet myself in the mirror, but all I see is my mum looking back at me!!! Where did all those wrinkles come from? The bags under the eyes have turned into suitcases!!! Even the jowls have started to form; I don’t remember getting this old. Somebody must have put a curse on me overnight and when I find my magic wand everything will be back to normal.

Relationships are a Brilliant Place to Learn

Relationships are a Brilliant Place to Learn Ever notice how it’s the people we’re closest to who push our buttons. What if we considered them a mirror for our own growth and learning? What usually happens is we look at the other and judge: we don’t like what they’re doing. We think ‘They hurt me,’ or ‘I’m jealous’. We have judgments about how they handle money, or parenting. We don’t like how they deal with children, extended family, how they approach sexual intimacy, their work focus (or lack thereof).

Learn How To Price Your Products & Services
Some businesses don't have to worry about pricing because there is a market price for their goods or services that can't be modified, such as the price of developing a role of 35-mm color film at a Photo franchise shop, for example. But most businesses have to decide how to price their goods or service and whether it will be lower, the same as, or higher than the market price.

Are You On The Verge Of Quitting

I believe if you're an entrepreneur or in sales - you deserve a gold star! Why? Because we're people who don't get regular pay cheques like the rest of the madding crowd. We ONLY get paid when we SELL. (Now look in the mirror because I just pasted a BIG Star on your forehead!) And sometimes it feels like sales are slow, no one is calling you back, and you couldn't come up with a new idea if your life depended on it. (thank goodness that's not the case!)

Sales amateur vs. sales professional

I am sure you have heard about salespeople earning $200-300k, a million or even more. Do you think this sales person is better than you are? They are not much different from you; they are not geniuses or impeccable experts in their field. They probably don’t know much more about their products or service than other salespeople in the same company. So you are probably asking yourself – how is it that they can make six or seven figures and you are struggling month by month to make ends meet and reach your quotas?

Shoot! Five tips for working with newspaper photographers

Good art is a crucial element in an effective news story. Lots of people read newspapers from cover to cover, but many more scan pages for points of interest.

Are You Fulfilled

Dear Jane, How can I figure out whether I am doing what makes me happy? What are some of the symptoms of unhappiness, or must I wait for a life-threatening situation? I wrote my popular self-help book, Enough Is Enough!, to help others avoid having to go through a life-threatening situation in order to wake up to your spirit’s calling. If you are having to ask yourself if you are happy, then you probably aren’t. Perhaps you haven’t yet had the satisfaction that goes with fulfilling your spirit’s purpose, so you don’t know what benchmark to compare your feelings with. The symptoms of endurance or a less-than-thriving life are discussed in depth in my book. I will give you a short list here that you should find helpful:
