Life purpose
What is your deepest wish?
That’s a really interesting question, especially if you spend some time getting behind the obvious answers:
More money
More health
More love
More freedom of time
Less hassles overall
A good way to get funny looks is to ask someone why they want more health, for example. Who wouldn’t want it; there is no explanation needed!
Beneath all of those primary, essential [...]
Doing work that reflects your true nature is more relevant than ever
Everyone would agree that getting food on the table is the first priority; self-actualization being something you do when you’ve got the your basic needs covered.
That’s why many people might think that talking about creating a business that expresses your life purpose and your deepest wishes is a topic for better economic times. And that [...]
Ever notice you get sad after finally reaching a hard-earned goal?
I first experienced this when I was involved with long projects in the corporate world. After they were finally completed, I found myself down and out for a few days.
It must be a reaction to the pre-deadline high intensity and long hours, I thought.
As a corporate trainer, the post-workshop crash was part of my regular [...]
Genuine Enthusiasm as Profound Marketing
I’ve just been subjected to an hour of ABBA tunes at full volume and some of their tunes are still living in my brain as ear worms. The perfect antidote I thought was to use the experience as inspiration for this post.
Actually, I’m one of those who like ABBA (you either do or you really [...]
Creating a business with meaning; isn’t that a luxury in uncertain times?
That’s the question someone asked me recently, and I’m sure she wouldn’t be the only one with that opinion.
I believe that it’s more important now than ever to create a business that has meaning for you, and here’s why.
A meaningful business will increase your chances of being successful
I’m saying that for very practical reasons.
Your marketing [...]
Why do you want to start an online business?
Some people would answer this by saying…to make money of course, what else.
Others would talk about how they want to bring their service to the world and can use the internet to reach out.
Both types of people would do well to spend more time pondering the question.
Why you start the business may not be directly [...]
The deepest satisfaction is knowing your calling
I recalled in the last post a story about someone I knew who was a mismatch for his job. When that happens, it’s really hard to have some spunk, to be “spirited” at work.
We all know how important it is to match our career choice with our personalities, yet statistics tell us that the vast [...]
Worry is negative visualization
Think of a doting mother, or of a business owner putting her assets on the line in her new business. They both care about their “child” and want to keep it safe from harm.
They both tend to worry as a demonstration of their caring, and some of that is expected. I don’t know about you, [...]
Personal growth: is it an indulgence in difficult times?
After all, we have to first tend to the basics: earning a living or keeping the business afloat.
Doesn’t Maslow’s hierarchy of needs tell us that survival has to be met first, personal growth being only the icing on the cake when everything else is looked after?
Let’s say for the sake of this argument, that we [...]
Following your life purpose is a key to success
Well, it’s been a while since I’ve posted, and here’s why. My business has gone through an overhaul and changed its name from SuccessWorthLiving.com to MakeItSoClub.com, and since that name was a little obscure to most people, to WhereBusinessMeetsSpirit.com.
Though I still help business people achieve the kind of success that also comes with a high [...]
