Context is Everything - ideas for increased productivity - Part1
How come "Context is Everything" is getting more and more attention these days? And what does it exactly mean also in the context of time management and stress management? This is exactly the question this article is going to go into - illuminating the topic with three very different examples. Enjoy the read!
Deliberately Choose How You Want To Live Your Life
This article asks the question, "Is your life worth living?" This simple question, when asked often, creates more abundance in your life. Here are practical tools to remind yourself that you are in control of creating a wonderful quality of life regardless of your circumstances.

The Urgency of Importance
Every one of us probably knows someone who’s permanently in crisis mode, constantly putting out fires, busy, busy, busy. But, have you noticed, that type of person is frequently stuck somewhere shy of their goals because they never seem to have the time to get to the things they say are important to them?
Get Proactive or Face the Consequences
The key to avoiding a midlife crisis involves looking ahead beyond the immediate crises that sap your energy and attention. Being truly proactive is your only effective way forward.
Circle of Influence vs Circle of Concern
It's entirely too easy to become overwhelmed by the world's problems. If we don't pay attention to our circle of influence, we may allow ourselves to become wholly ineffective.
Think Big to Get Big
Thinking big - knowing the larger purpose for which you apply yourself at any given moment - always alters how you understand your contribution and role, leads to acting with greater focus, and produces better results.

When Your Well Runs Dry
Just when we think we're completely drained and haven't a thing more we can contribute, we need to stop and think twice. Maybe it's not so much how much we're giving, but how little we're putting back in that matters.
The Joel Roberts Way to Make Profits from Problems
Joel Roberts used to be with KABC radio in Los Angeles. He went from radio to marketing, and he now trains people on how to become direct marketers. His list of clients speaks for itself; it includes Harv Eker (Secrets of the Millionaire Mind) and Stephen Covey (The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People), and he is also the official media coach for Chicken Soup for the Soul. Chet Holmes says to focus on the market data - focus on the problem. Chet’s advice is to build the pain until they can’t stand it any longer and they have to take action. Joel Roberts has a similar but unique perspective. He answers the question: How Do You Get The Attention Of The Mass Media?
The Success Formula, continued. Step 1: Building Your Ideal Future State
Richard’s last article, The Success Formula (Success = Results Delivered x Fulfillment Lived), generated a lot of interest, especially around the suggestion that to achieve true success, it is necessary to “make the abstract components of success tangible and definable.” Many readers asked how to achieve this task. To respond, Richard’s next few articles will address four steps to overcoming the challenges of understanding both variables in the Success Formula. In the present article, he explains how to build a solid “Ideal Future State” – a reliable frame of reference that will act as a powerful beacon, guiding the ongoing decision-making process involved in achieving success.

Lead With Vision
Leaders have vision and pull others into their vision. They have a clear mental picture of what success looks like. They attract others to their vision with a sense of purpose, belief, passion and enthusiasm.
Why I always Keep my Promises
It's a small thing, but it is important. In your business, forgetting little things promised causes erosion of trust and belief in you. And ultimately, those little things add up to a lot for your people. And that affects you and ultimately, your business success.
Delegation for Business Leaders - How Letting Go Works
# To create the time for the specific role of a leader, as much as possible of the day to day delivery must be handed over. This level of delegation is very important, not only to create the space for the leader to develop visions and longer terms strategic goals, but also in encouragement of key individuals who will both be challenged by new activities, but will also be developed for the future benefit of the organisation.

Profitable online Business Ideas; Success and Failure Part 2

Who’s in charge of your sales recruitment?
1. How much is a good sales person worth to you? 2. How much is a good hiring manager worth to you? Speaking about recruitment in these current economic times may seem foolish, however in the area of selling, this is where you could make great strides by picking up highly effective sales people who have found themselves on the job market or are looking for a better business to work in. I know of a few highly competent sales people and sales managers who have been let go along with other staff as part of large staff reduction strategies. In my opinion, the last people I would let go in this market would be highly competent and high producing sales people. Which leads me to the contentious issue about who makes the decisions to hire and fire sales people. In particular, who hires sales people.

I also highlight 3 of Covey's most effective habits that will get you closer to your greatest personal and professional goals.
