My Boss Yelled At Me

So a week ago my boss at my day job yelled at me.

Was I embarrassed?
No, not at all.
Why?
I handled it well.
And I was inspired by it.

Here are the lessons from my 5 minutes of madness.

–Always Keep Your composure.
In the midst of a verbal barrage and repeated threats I didn’t raise my voice or reply in kind.
It made me look regal and my attacker look petty and childish.

Also when you get into an argument with someone you enter into a contract of sorts. Both parties are now stuck in a combative energy and are wasting efforts.
Is that what you really want out of your life?
Isn’t your time and energy worth more?

-Don’t have a Boss.
I realized that while I had a huge victory in this incident via my self control-
I would be a bigger winner still if I had no boss.
I love my job and all that comes with it.
Yet there is a huge chunk of me that yearns to be free. To be in charge.
I love the idea of being my own boss.
For a few years my father worked for himself, and I remember the freedom it afforded him.
And honestly, I’d rather lead than follow, work from home, and keep all the loot my efforts reap.

-Build your OWN Empire.
Having an empire of your own will afford you the ability to be in a position where no one can stop you.
A position where no one will be able to demean you.
You will always be at the top.
You will be unstoppable.
I could say more on this topic but who doesn’t want to be the head honcho of a major enterprise?
Sounds pretty sweet right?

-Poor leadership.
This is a trap you don’t want to fall in.
Never give in to being less than is required, less than you can be.
Leadership requires that you make sacrifices and that you always lead by example.
Never lose your cool.
Never forget to be the best.
Only then can you work with the best.

Day 6 of the 12 Day Challenge

26 Dec

So it’s day 6 of my 12 day challenge.

Oh, did I forget to mention my 12 day challenge?
It’s intentional.
I wanted to get it moving before I spoke on it.

Here’s the results from my tally:
*Posted daily to multiple blogs- CHECK.

*Hit gym religiously-CHECK.
Now here there is a 2 day break for the 24th and 25th of December. Why? Scheduling and injury. But I’ll be doing chest and triceps again tomorrow. For the 2 days off I cut carbs dramatically and ate almost no “snacks.”. As in chips, junk food, etc.

*Sales-CHECK.
I had one person join my team and sold some tees in my personally created line.

*PaperWork- CHECK.
I’m behind on this about a half day but that is irrelevant as it doesn’t impede my bills etc. I’ve filed all but 1 set of paperwork.

*Car issues- CHECK.
I’m 97% done with this as well.
Car runs but I’m aiming to be ahead not behind.

*What am I forgetting?
Nothing I think.

Overall I’m pleased with what I’ve achieved.
I’ve also read a lot and had some serious quality sleep. And I’ve been on point and studious through these days.

And fyi- it is only 1:32am EST so my day 6 hasn’t really begun…

The Power of Leverage

17 Dec

Everyone wants to be rich.

Now before you tell me your fairy tale story or your lack of desire for material wealth-
Bro you wouldn’t be reading my blog if you weren’t trying to get ahead (forgive my double negative).

While writing this I just collected double checks, met a physical goal, and completed further training for a current leadership goal.

How does all that apply?
Stick with me for a minute, I’ll get there.

Leverage is simply put me- or you- getting multiple returns off of one moment or example of effort. So if one blog post sells 3 affiliate products= Leverage.
In my case I was able to have one previous customer come back and bring 2 new back to back sales in less than 24 hours. While in the gym meeting goals I got an email requesting work and another email confirming payment
for service.

Not only that- I was in the gym the next day and had the same cycle repeat itself-while in a weekend training!

It was pretty sweet.

Overall the lesson here besides my happiness at achieving my goals through focus is simply that I turned 1 sale into 7.
And I did it by leveraging other’s work and also quality work on my part.
I was able to deliver quality- and that quality sold more product then I could.
People come back when they get good service.
And sales beget sales.
Every person I was able to service, and then promise a percentage- with them knowing the quality- considers coming back.
To the tune of 84%.
That’s a hefty return on my investment.
Think about it.
