A really fun video that will inspire you to be yourself
I just saw a video that pulled my heart strings because it spoke to two of my top values:
My love of animals
The fact that we need to be who we are rather than try to mold ourselves into what we “should” be, and that’s for our own happiness and because we’ll be much more successful [...]
Challenges of being a sensitive person in business
In the last post, I described some of the ways in which an entrepreneur, executive or manager’s sensitivity would be an asset in doing their work.
Most sensitives would tell you that it’s been difficult functioning in our mainly action-oriented, fast-paced and attention-seeking culture and business world. For example, sensitive persons would tend to:
Find confrontations [...]
Getting a handle on your desk clutter: treat yourself like a guest
I recently had a guest stay for a few days and she slept in my office which occasionally doubles as a guest room.
She marveled at how clutter-free my desk was and asked that I write a blog post on how I kept it that way.
Well…I don’t. I cleaned it up in order to give her [...]
Getting out of overwhelm: 6 suggestions
We get into overwhelm when we feel there is too much to do and too little time.
That’s pretty obvious. What’s less obvious is what to do about it.
Most of us feel like there is little we can realistically do in our current circumstances.
We’ll get relief only when those change; when our sales reach a certain [...]
Client satisfaction: it’s not just what you do it’s how you do it
And by “how”, I don’t mean just the mechanics or tactics.
Those are important; as we’ve learned many times over, the devil is in the details.
The most important “how”, however, is your intention.
If you are providing a service to a client and consciously intend to extend a positive energy with it (such as reassurance, respect or [...]
What if you run out of ideas?
Entrepreneurs have a reputation for being idea people, so their problem is often too many ideas rather than too few.
Or is it?
Depends if you count only the ideas that:
Are consistent with the entrepreneur’s purpose, mission and overall plan
Are a good use of time and resources in view of their projected profitability
And are coupled with [...]
Why you need to take a second look at your level of confidence
Everyone agrees that it’s important to feel confident, both for success and your own happiness. But very few people do anything to feel more confident, unless they are sorely lacking in that area…and quite frankly even then.
I think it’s because we think there is little we can do about it; we either have it or [...]
I have a love-hate relationship with enthusiasm especially when it comes to selling
Love:
Remember the last time you went to a store and deal with a sales person who had the “whatever!” method of dealing with the customer? It’s irritating; we want to tell the person to quit if they hate that job so much.
Just the other day I had to go into one of those big [...]
Coming back from failure; why you have to get right back on the horse
You know instinctively know that if you fall off a horse, you have to get right back on it or you risk being too afraid to do it later.
That principle applies to anything that gave you a fright physically, or a blow to your pride and sense of security (like losing a client, not getting [...]
Stop worrying whether they like your work
No, I’m not advocating being indifferent to the quality of your work. Let me explain what I mean by telling a story about a coaching client.
Lisa (not her real name) was finding it very stressful to give her workshops. To the point where she even doubted that she was cut out for that kind of [...]
