Concentration Is The Cure For Tough Times…Part One
| |
| Every time you do not concentrate, you fall behind on what you planned to do and the result is, you lose a lot. That precious time is gone forever. Every day, you have 1,440 minutes at your disposal. That’s the same amount of time that successful people like, a Bill Gates or a Nelson Mandela, have every day. You may find reasons for not getting things done, but most excuses are poor substitutes for ACTION. Most things in life are possible. |

Lesson #1: Fight the Limits That Are Imposed On You
| |
| When White first began thinking about taking control of the UFC, there was nary a supportive voice to be found. Based on the organization’s past history, there were few who believed it could become the success that White envisioned. Almost immediately after the purchase, the media began to speculate about the “oodles and oodles of money” that the company was already losing. Nevertheless, just five years later, the UFC had become the largest pay-per-view provider in the world, and was generating more in tax revenues for the state of Nevada than had any boxing promoter in the past. How did White do it? |

The Stickiness Aptitude Test (SAT) and Ten Questions with Chip and Dan Heath
| |
| My prediction for Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die is that it will join The Tipping Point and Built to Last as a must-read for business people. The book explains why some ideas stick and some don’t--and I’ve been on both sides of this equation. A warning though: If you read this book, you’ll revamp a lot of your marketing material (as you probably should). |

Slowing Down - A Pathway to Inner Confidence
| |
| It is safe to assume that all of us know the feeling of our days flying by. For myself, I busily coach and in between sessions complete my list of daily To Do’s - both for my business and for my personal life. I enjoy feeling engaged and productive - it’s a natural part of my personality. When I’m in the creative flow and building a sense of momentum in moving forward, I feel good.
At the close of an active day as I allow myself to truly stop and rest, I realize that it would have been okay for me to slow down in between my coaching. Yes, it was gratifying to get things done, and I can take my time - trusting that what truly needs to get done will get done eventually. |

S.O.S: The Single Most Powerful Shortcut to Make Your List Love You (And Buy From You)
| |
| We opened an email swipe file account recently and I've been going in daily to observe the various emails.
It's interesting and eye-opening, almost like a "survival of the fittest" experiment with the best emails rising to the top and the ones not cutting the mark sinking to the bottom (simply because I subscribed to 140 marketing mailing lists).
I've tried to reverse-engineer how and why these emails are so amazingly effective at capturing my attention, and even in some cases, my heart. I call this single most powerful concept 'SOS': Setting Off Sparks. |

Work Life Balance
| |
| Balance is better understood as flow. For instance, I'm building my business right now. It's been my full-time occupation for about six months, and I've spent a disproportionate amount of time during that six months on my business. Since I've made the choice to pass up a variety of recreational activities -- everything from going to the movies to taking a spa vacation with a friend -- it would be easy to conclude that I'm "out of balance."
