QUICK TAX TIP

14 Apr

Taxes are due tomorrow unless you filed already or have an extension filed as well.
Do your due diligence folks and be sure not to cheat.

Now Folks, if you have a legit business you need to work your deductions.
There are legal, healthy deductions the government allows for every business. Competitive, entrepreneurial growth is not only desired it is encouraged by the government.
Now let’s say you meet a potential client while at the local watering hole/hamburger spot. You can legally claim a % of that meal. But you want to make sure you have proof.
So you save the receipt for sure.
Most of my readers know to keep every receipt forever so that’s not a new concept.

Here’s the new concept:
Write the date, time, name and contact info on back of that receipt.
Now you have a great frame of reference for you and your CPA.

Want a Bonus tip:
Every time you get a business card from someone or a contact card- write their info and a first impression on the back.
Something like: Peter Parker, likes Silver coins, on a 1-10 his interest peaked at a 7.

See how simple this is?
How easy it can be to bulletproof
your taxes,
accounting,
and recruiting?

The business victories aren’t found in sealing the deal. The details are where you find every victory.
Prep work, and follow through deliver a greater ROI in every business.
I don’t care what you sell, who you train, or what you blog- my two aforementioned rules will deliver. Guaranteed.

The Body Builds When It’s At Rest

17 Mar

The Body Builds When at Rest.
Simple concept but so overlooked.
Let’s preface a bit shall we.

When you’re bodybuilding there aren’t too many ways to the top. You have to do what works and that path is narrow with only one or two deviations.

And no matter what you need rest. The body needs down time. The biggest gains are made when we sleep not when we lift.

How does this correspond? Simple-
In business You can’t sell 24-7. Let me clarify. Your busioness can sell forever. Whether you are present or not- but YOU literally cannot.
It isn’t feasible or smart.
Should you be ready at a moments notice? Yes.
Can you pitch at any moment? I hope so. However to sell forever and go on without relaxing will ruin you.
How?
Well if you are always in pitch mode you will badger people, aka lost sales. And those people will tell people. Word of your mouth will ruin you.

Next, if you aren’t resting you will miss opportunities. There are always options available, whether or not we see them is a different story. Be available to be sold to.
Be available to learn.
Be available to build.
When we aren’t available we lose out.

When you don’t rest and are on sell sell sell mode you can’t meet all the rigors of running a business. The mind is your greatest resource and as such it needs rest. It needs time to regroup, to sharpen it’s focus.
The mind won’t learn when it is always overtaxed by choice. The mind requires many things to function. Give your mind every advantage so you will not only succeed but conquer.

Lastly, when you sit back to rest you will see what is going on. The path will be illuminated. There aren’t too many ways to the top. And I know, most of you think- hey, bro- that’s bullshit. But it isn’t. I don’t care what your product is.
It has to be the best
or it has to be easily duplicatable.
And either requires you put in the man hours and give it your all.
Do you see the correlation?
NFL or MLB, both require the mind of a champion and the body to match.
Both facets also require rest.

Don’t be lazy now, just be time savvy.

Rest your way to the top.
