Lesson #4: “Only close attention to the fine details of any operation makes the operation first class.”
Marriott was a firm believer in the principle of management by walking around. He was as hands on as he could get, inspecting everything from the number of times a hamburger was flipped, to the haircut of his waiters. Even as the company grew, Marriott maintained his belief that if he was going to run his company, he had to know about what was going on in the restaurants, in the hotels, and on the ground. Marriott knew that the financial books in his office were in fact going to tell him less about his business than the cooks and waiters in his restaurant were, or the guests in his motels.

Just Because You Are Impatient Does NOT Mean I Have To Move Any Faster
Have we evolved into beings that have become so selfish and self absorbed that we have forgotten about our own self control? The ability to keep your mental, emotional and physical being, in check, requires self-control. The inability to do so is a sign that you are "out of control." When you easily lose your self control, you will most certainly fire off outbursts of anger, temper and blame on others.
What You Control
You may not be able to control if your job gets cut, but you can control whether you're a high performer who your boss is fighting to keep. You may not be able to control how quickly you get another job, but you can control the number of daily contacts you make in your search and how you "show up," future-focused, at the interview. You may not be able to control the amount of work you get, but you do control whether you're responding as a victim or taking action toward developing your skills and contacts for a new future.

Are you following a Sales Process?
If not, you are not only wasting your time, but you are also losing sales because of it. You think you are in control but in reality you are out of control. Have you ever been rejected? If your answer is yes, you have just proven that you are not in control of the sales process; however, the buyer is in control. Isn’t it your job and responsibility as a sales professional to qualify the prospects and to reject them if they are not qualified? Who is really qualifying? Who is really in control?
I’m Right, You’re Wrong: Behavioral Science Explains Away This Universal Belief
Each person is limited by their perception to access only a portion of reality, and they build their beliefs, values, and conclusions about the world based on the portion of reality they perceive. From this perspective people who perceive the world differently from you are not wrong, they are just seeing a different slice of reality than you are.
Enlist Your Self Control and Achieve Even More
Self-control is defined as “control of oneself” or the “ability to master one's desires and impulses. Philosophically speaking self-control could be described as the exertion of one's own will. Psychologically, self-control usually refers to a person’s self-perception, belief system, as well as the ability to set boundaries on their own behavior. Among some scientific communities, the issue seems to be whether or not what we perceive as “normal” is truly an accurate setting to work with. Most people assume that self-control is healthier than impulsiveness. However, this has to be compared to each person’s value system – their community

The Secret to Feeling in Control During Times of Change
For most of us, the thought of having control over life inconveniences seems like a great idea; wouldn’t it be great to control traffic, the weather, our family or neighbors? However, rather than actual control over our environment, what we really want is simply a sense of control, to feel like we’re on top of things. This can be achieved by choosing to accept challenges for what they are, setting a clear intention of what we need to do and finding the balance between our level of ability and the challenge presented. By learning to consciously reframe even the most chaotic situation, you’ll find that feeling “in control” is less about making life go according to plan, and more about your ability to focus on what you can control.
Covenants can save your investment when selling your business.
When you sell your business it is very typical for you as the business owner to have to carry a portion. Also called seller financing. If this is something that you will have to do. Make sure you protect this portion of the payout. Covenants are often an overlooked component of an effective seller financing note.

How to sell your business in a down economy!
While it is true that there are less “for sale” business deals that happen during economic recession, it is not because the potential buyers aren’t looking in the market. All over the country, there is much interest but a shortage of financing options which keeps a lot of deals from getting off the ground. And as a result, sellers today are willing to finance at least a portion of the business sale to get their business sold easily. As well with new SBA bank financing rules are requiring sellers to finance at least a portion of the sell. The problem with this is as the business owner you are in 2nd position behind the bank.
Assessing Our Ability to Influence Others
In our personal and leadership development workshops we often conduct a 'degrees of control' exercise. We ask participants to come up with examples in the following areas: 1. Direct Control; 2. Influence; and 3. No Control. While there's often lots of debate and not always full agreement, examples under No Control generally include things like the weather, the economy, natural disasters, freak accidents, and the like. Discussions about my degree of Direct Control usually boil down to just one thing - me. However, some autocratic people fool themselves into thinking they have direct control over their teams, kids, or people reporting to them. Many other people are quick to surrender to the Victimitis Virus and declare they have no control or even influence over the behavior of anyone else.
