Persistence.
| |
| I’ve often been curious to hear the responses given by individuals of substantial success when asked about their methods or secrets. The secrets of the wealthy, the winners, the business elite. Over the years, I’ve heard some remarkable responses, and some quite simple doctrines as well. I once at a conference listened to a rather engaging older gentleman profess that his secret was writing goals on a small piece of plywood, and then sleeping with it under his pillow. Honestly I thought to try it, once, no more than twice, but the idea of an inordinate amount of splinters ravaging my cheeks kept me from running to Home Depot for sharpies and 2×4’s. |

It's The Little Things That Matter
| |
| Leaders serving an apprenticeship are in a constant phase of learning, developing their strategic appreciation, their systematic thinking style and their approaches to people management as they go. Encompassed within this learning is an education around conducting great meetings - meetings that inspire participation and fulfil a need for engagement. It’s about having each team member completing work projects in a positive manner, utilising their given talents and being prepared to take calculated risk without fear of reprisal. It’s about the ability to articulate strategy to others – and articulate it in such a way as to promote familiarity and confidence. |

The Seven Deadly Sins of Retailing
| |
| Most businesses that fail do so because of their owners’ “sins.” Usually it’s not for lack of hard work. On the contrary, most store owners put in long hours. The problem is that owners don’t succeed for working hard; they succeed because they produce results, plan ahead and optimize their resources. |

THE PLIGHT OF THE PERFECTIONIST

| Perfectionism can be paralysing. Perhaps perfectionists could be helped if we adopted the motto of a well known sports brand and learnt to “just do it”. Instead of waiting for perfection, life would be a little easier if we just did it. |

Boredom: The Gateway to Creativity
| |
| We say we want balance and the ability to have more free time, but when outward demands slow down a bit it seems to create a state of imbalance instead. Is it possible that the absence of drama or urgency causes confusion and anxiety? Are we so used to fixing problems that we don't know how to deal with their sudden absence? We say want to be more productive, but will we really be able to improve our ability to focus on what's important and reduce busy work if we're afraid of the silence? |

Reality Check
| |
| The real world is highly competitive and moving on with or without you. Life is not fair, everyone has a bad day, life is a constant test, and you will get paid what the market thinks your skills are worth. There are winners and losers in all walks of life, you are accountable for your own mistakes, and the world will expect you to accomplish something significant to increase your self-esteem. |

If You Are Considering Becoming a Life or Business Coach
| |
| For those of you kicking the tires on this field or already in it but out of the "honeymoon phase" you've likely found that enthusiastically telling people you intend to "take them to the next level", "turn their dreams into reality" and "help them to achieve their goals and live with more passion" leaves prospective clients confused about what you actually do and why they should pay good money to hire you. Thinking the answer lies in choosing a niche, you might state, "I work with women", "I work with small businesses", "I work with parents" but still your business fails to thrive. If this has been your plight, please read on... |

1.0 Executive Summary: Enterprise solutions to poverty
| |
| The modern world has always encompassed
extremes of affluence and poverty. But in 2005 the
confluence of advocacy, political serendipity and
natural disaster has rapidly pushed the plight of the
impoverished up the agenda of the wealthy as
never before. The sharpness of the challenge being
thrown down on behalf of the poor and the
pressure on the rich to take action in response is
unprecedented, as is the level of debate on a topic
previously all but ignored by the public and
mainstream media. |

Funke Adenodi Akinbuli Helps Disabled in Africa Live With Dignity & Respect
| |
| If you didn't already know, most of Africa’s disabled [including the blind, paraplegic etc.] citizens live in deplorable conditions. Most are unemployed and can be found on Africa’s major streets and highways placing themselves in harm’s way as they beg for money to meet their basic needs. Rarely will you find a paraplegic in Africa, for example, with necessary medical equipment i.e. wheelchair. Most navigate the streets and freeways on their hands. Sadly, a lot of Africa’s citizens have become desensitized to the deplorable conditions of the disabled partly because most are frustrated with economic and political conditions in the continent and are barely trying to keep heads above water. Others just have no idea where to begin helping and still most lack awareness of the plight of the disabled.

A Crisis of Confidence and Attitude
| |
| There is no avoiding hearing about the plight of Home Builders and the Automotive Industry in today’s headlines. Even Toyota and Honda sales were down as much as 30% in November. So it is no longer a fact that American consumers are just avoiding the offerings of the domestic automaker. They are avoiding ANY big ticket commitment. Granted the October “shock to the system” was monumental. Customer’s have headed for the hills...or have they? I do consulting work in the Home Building industry and found that our traffic hasn’t been off as much as our sales over the past 60 days. We have prospects who select a new home, pick it apart (which in the past was a buying signal), make offers and then “freeze up”. All objections and excuses have been overcome but they cannot “pull the trigger”. Why is this? |

Moving Forward After Organizational Restructuring
| |
| Since the early 1980s, a wave of reorganization has emerged. The plight of displaced employees has received great attention, as evidenced by the many programs for helping them retrain, relocate, increase their employability and regain their emotional stability. Relief comes to an organization after restructuring when everyone assumes that the worst has passed. However, the readjustment process for the remaining employees may become a shocking experience for the organization. |
