2016 Goals update

2 Feb

*For my goal of losing 30lbs this year- I’m down 14lbs and counting.
The goal will be to drop 30lbs and end the year down 30lbs.
As in almost 50% there in a month I see it as highly feasible.

*For my savings goal, which I doubled – I’ve met it so far (sorry no #s as money is a private matter). I am supremely confident this goal will sail through.

*For my 2 books a month goal- well I read 3.6 books. Good right?
WRONG.
I read 2 fiction books and 1.6 education/management/finance/personal development books.
While the number is almost double I realized 2 days shy of February that I must read books that Grow ME, not entertain me.

*For my recruiting goal, I missed the mark.
But I am happy as I reached out to numerous people and got solid commitments.
With this goal I simply have to break free of my fear and use my God given talents.

*As for my mystery goal, I smashed it out of the park! Details to come in December.

Remember folks, set goals, have to do lists, and be accountable for them.

Entrepreneur Freedom Tip: opt out of sales emails

25 Jan

Hey folks, here’s a quick tip:

Opt out of as much junk mail/email marketing as you can.

The average person gets 80 plus emails a day and it’s a sure bet that a lot of that can be skipped over.

So my call to action of the week is for everyone to wake up, read something up lifting, and after that unsubscribe and or opt out of at least. 10 email threads this week.
Toms, zulilly, facebook updates, finishline, eastbay, tmz, or even that quazi-valuable entrepreneur who’s posts are mildly useful.

Bottom line if it does not add tangible value to your. Daily existence and or business – UNSUBSCRIBE!

Monday Motivation

18 Jan

A little Monday Motivation.
Call it BHAG, aka
Big
Hairy
Audacious
Goals

If it isn’t too big for where you’re at now it isn’t a goal.
Exceeding your own expectations should be your new normal.

My immediate goals and year long ones are ones I wasn’t sure I could accomplish. However, putting them on paper and sharing with my inner circle has galvanized my inner compass.

What is motivating you?
Have you written out your goals?
Do you have a specific, step by step plan to get there?
Let me know.
Like/comment if I motivate you.

Seriously, fear is your number one enemy.

But have faith, not only in your God, but in YOU!

If you don’t believe you will Conquer, than YOU WON’T.
Period.

Be the greatest you – YOU can Create.
Who are you to question the greatness you are destined for?

Lesson of the Day : Everyone Says, Most People Won’t

6 Dec

Lesson of the day:
A friend loved my tee line and wanted in on that and my other ideas.
He had concepts to bring to the table as well.
A long term friend with great values- I had offered him a piece of my company. When I made my real offer, not a hey we’re at the bar offer- but a you get x% if y happens.
And I told him I didn’t want an answer for two business weeks.
I called him before that to share big family news. He then said he didn’t forget and would accept my offer.
Fast forward to last Thursday- I ran into him in Costco and we get to chatting about debt, taxes, and the need for funds to build our dream lives.
He asks when I’m free so we can meet.
We tentatively agreed for today, Sunday the 5th from 12-2pm.
I told him to call and confirm.
He never did.
So the lesson folks is simply that everyone says they want in.
Everyone says they will work hard.
Everyone says they want to be rich.
I guess he doesn’t.

I’ve already built the bones of my LLC.
But I see that as he had no skin in the game yet ( cash involvement) he wasn’t truly going to commit.
And honestly that is fine by me.
Here’s why:
A- I know we can’t do business so I just sidestepped a liability down the road.

B- I lost no collateral, cash, or friendship.

C- I learned my hunches are pretty accurate.
Here’s why: I mentioned Real Estate and all he could mention was risk.
I saw gains, he saw loss.

So as I was saying, the lesson is: Everyone SAYS, Most People WON’T.

Friends and family are great, but in business make sure you can run the race alone.
At least until you can buy the team. 😉

2 Things to Focus on for Immediate Success

27 Nov

1) Focus on what you’re grateful for.

2) Focus on income producing activities first.

1- Every morning I start off my day with a shower and reciting a list of what I am grateful for that morning. Usually I say the list out loud as it seems too resonate deeper for me.

Whatever method you prefer I suggest you begin this daily habit immediately. As this habit has taken root I find I’m happier, healthier, and more productive. It’s easy to get down on yourself, especially when you’re building a business. The hours can seem endless and the sales non-existent at times.
A lost sale can be crushing to the ego.
But making a strong habit of focusing on the good things will make you a better entrepreneur. I promise.

2- I used to get up and check my emails and messages asap. This created more stress than it relieved actually.
What I thought was productive use of my time was a drag on my time.
Unless you have specific clientele that need access to you 24-7, skip the immediate check of messages in all formats.
Focus instead on income producing activities.
If you get paid to write, write.
If you make money closing deals or life insurance policies, then by all means close them asap. Hit the day with a focused mind and a plan- and that will produce income faster than seeing how many followers you gained.

Why will this create immediate success?
Because you will have changed your outlook and perspective, as well as laser targeted what will really make you money.

Time is the most valuable and precious commodity, so make sure you are using it right.

Play the Game

27 Nov

It’s pretty simple.
If you want to lose weight eat right.
If you need help, ask for it. 

That’s it. There is nothing more powerful than the moment you reach out and seize the day. Ask for help, commit to the product, whatever it is you need to do- DO IT. 

I’m not gonna lecture you or throw in some zippy advice.
The meme speaks for itself.
