Lesson #4: Do What You Love Most
Morgan was one of those lucky few who knew from the get-go what he wanted to spend his life doing. There was never any doubt in Morgan’s mind, or to anyone who knew him, that he was meant for a career in business. It had been his passion from day one; he breathed business and knew it like the back of his hand. He had a natural aptitude for wheeling and dealing and to deny this would have been America’s tragic loss. It was in listening to his heart and following his passion that Morgan was able to achieve such astounding success.

The Magic and Tragic Words of Marketing
Magic words propel great ideas towards profitability. Tragic words doom great ideas to failure. Guerrillas know the difference.

Objective Reality
If you want to create results that are truly important to you, it is critical to separate your identity (who you are) from the results you want. Feeling good or bad about yourself has little bearing on the quantity or quality of your results. If you doubt this, consider famous people with extreme self-doubts or poor self-concepts who produced spectacular results. The results of standardized tests indicate that students who "felt good about themselves" often performed lower than the scores they predicted they would achieve.

Are You Doing the Moon Walk --- Going Backwards While Moving Forward
The death of Michael Jackson recently was a tragic event. No matter what you thought of Michael personally, there is no doubt that he was one of the most talented entertainers of all time. His singing and dancing talent showcased so effectively by his performance in the video and album “Thriller” will be remembered forever as the Capstone of his career. I, like millions of his fans, mourn his passing. However, the one thing that I remember the most is his invention of the “Moonwalk”. The “Moon Walk” is a dance move that looks as if you are going forward when in reality you are moving backward. Michael made that move famous. His tragic sorrowful death reminded me of that move. The Moon Walk itself brings to mind how many businesses often struggle to achieve success; doing things that are supposed to gain market share and create success.
Leadership Tip - Moving Beyond Fear Into Your Leadership Role
Media is bombarding the airwaves with tragic news regarding one financial collapse after another. Fear is being felt throughout the world as a result of fallen financial markets. Reacting to life on the terms of FEAR is giving one’s power away. Remember FEAR is “false evidence appearing real.” There are facts and then there are actions you take from what your heart knows is true. Your heart speaks the truth.

Guerrilla marketing erects monuments to follow-up, honors it, and practices it.
But effective follow-up is a rarity among small businesses. It pains me to know that over 60% of leads--leads that took a lot of time, energy, imagination and information to generate--will slip through the cracks. What's even more tragic is that a stunning 68 percent of the leads that convert into customers will be ultimately lost after the sale due to poor follow-up.
Succession Planning
Can organizations prepare for loss? You can never be fully prepared for a tragic loss, however a succession plan will go a long way in minimizing the effect of loss. The loss in this case was an untimely death, but many organizations today face the risk of losing a seasoned executive through age, retirement, and even hiring away by a competitor. It is therefore important to consider the issue of succession NOW rather than later.
Motivation, The Heart of Self Improvement
Pain may sometimes be the reason why people change. Getting flunked grades make us realize that we need to study. Debts remind us of our inability to look for a source of income. Being humiliated gives us the ‘push’ to speak up and fight for ourselves to save our face from the next embarrassments. It may be a bitter experience, a friend’s tragic story, a great movie, or an inspiring book that will help us get up and get just the right amount of motivation we need in order to improve ourselves.

When selling a small business consider seller financing - Guaranteeing the Seller Note with Insurance
Have you ever asked yourself any of the following? What if something serious happens to the purchaser? In case of tragic events, where will my money go? Will I be protected if the purchaser experiences disability or something worse?

You Have The Right To Choose Happiness
The recent tragic death of the very talented Whitney Houston got me thinking about how so many of us are unaware that we are all born to be happy and are tuned into the dark and difficult aspects of life, remaining blind to our innate beauty
