What good is being successful in your business if you have such poor health you cannot enjoy it? I know it is hard to get the adequate sleep we need when building a business. It is difficult to treat exercise as a necessity as compared to researching the best keywords for your Google AdWords campaign.

So just as you did with your personal and business goals when you first started your business, go ahead and take out a sheet of paper and start writing down the following goals you need so you can improve your health to enjoy your wealth.

What to Do When Customers Are Few
The measure of a salesperson is whether they flourish in bad economic times not in good. Peak performing salespeople are always producing. “They do what the average salespeople are unwilling to do.” Average salespeople blame the economy, or the boss for not advertising enough or the pricing for the lack of sales. Are you a typical salesperson, feet up on the desk, eating lunch, reading a book or a newspaper, or chit chatting with the salesperson next to you?
One Tough Thing You Need To Do Today
Are You Avoiding Something Tough? Hey listen. Been there. I catch myself avoiding things too. Meeting with my accountant at tax-time. Speaking to a supplier I'm not happy with. Saying No to someone who is really nice. The process of selling and marketing can definitely have some tough spots. Maybe you feel... • Stuck • Or not creative • Or you're dreading making a call to a customer because you've screwed up My Diva Advice? You have to know how to REWARD yourself for doing the tough stuff! (Basically this is what any good sales manager excels at)
Why Use A Certified Bookkeeper Instead Of Doing Your Own Bookkeeping?
As a member of the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers I am often asked why a small business owner needs to use an outside bookkeeping expert, rather than doing the bookkeeping themselves to save money. This is an easy question to answer because it is a “no-brainer”. There are times in your life when only a qualified expert will do. For example, if you are about to undergo brain surgery...

What should you look for in a Coach
Is your coach the real deal? Coaching is a relatively young profession and is almost completely unregulated. Almost anyone can call themselves a coach by simply reading a book, attending a course or just deciding that their life skills sufficiently qualify them to coach others. So how do you guarantee that yours is the real thing?
How to give your family a wellness makeover

Punished by rewards
Punishment and reward proceed from basically the same psychological model, one that conceives of motivation as nothing more than the manipulation of behavior. As part of my own development and in an attempt to keep my mind as open and fresh as possible, I take to reading all sorts of things. On my current reading list is a very interesting book called “Punished by Rewards” by Alfie Kohn, author, speaker and educator. He writes about the trouble with “gold stars, incentive plans, As, praise and other bribes”.
Is your Value Stream Mapping backwards?
As I was reading, actually re-reading the book, I thought how simple and intelligent that statement was.

Your Book Won't Succeed Without It--Seriously
As writers, we tend to think about writing and what it takes to write a book. But what about reading a book? When you ask someone to read your book, you’re asking them to set aside other things they could be doing--reading something else, hanging out with their kids, or whatever--and spend ten or so hours with you and your thoughts. That’s a pretty serious request. So how serious do you take your writing?
Connect to Your Readers and Create Raving Book Fans
Imagine a crowd of people--your ideal clients and readers--reading your book and loving every word of it. Imagine them devouring every page, reading it again, telling everyone they know about how fabulous and life-changing it is, and then passing your book on to their friends and colleagues. This is what every author wants--a crowd of dedicated, raving fans who can't wait to work with them. And, believe it or not, every author can have it.
The Magic Card
Just last week while listening to a radio newscast, I heard the most disturbing statistic imaginable. The statistic shocked me so much that I listened to the same newscast a half hour later to be certain that I had heard it right. The radio announcer proclaimed, "Less than 5% of Americans have a library card, and less than ½ of 1% use their card with any degree of frequency." As a blind person, I think back to when I could read a book with my eyes like you are reading this column now. I'm embarrassed to say that at that time in my life, I took reading for granted, and I don't know that I ever read an entire book cover-to-cover. Today, with books-on-tape and a high-speed tape recorder, I read a book every day. This has literally changed my life.

Tolerance
Have you ever read something that failed to impact you and then - upon re-reading the same thing - you find it to be revolutionary? This happened to me recently with a book by Napoleon Hill. This particular book contains a lot of excerpts from that legendary writer and speaker. There was an essay entitled "Tolerance" that I know I have read more than once, but for whatever reason, I had not found it to be memorable. Upon my most recent reading, I discovered that it was one of the most significant things that Napoleon Hill ever wrote. The beginning of the essay is as follows:
