What Have You Done In The Past That You Feel Still Defines You?

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I was riding with my oldest son the other night from his basketball game and he stated to me that when he get around anyone that he knew in the past somehow he reverts to his old shy self.  He was a very shy person when he was younger and he is consciously working on being more of an extrovert.  My son is engaging on his personal development without being aware of what he is really doing.  He made me think about what I have done in the past that I have allowed to define me.  I have always worked under the guise of a salaried manager in a retail or restaurant establishment.  The desire to step out and become an entrepreneur has always been inside of me but I never allowed it to come to light.  The fact that was who you were in the past does not mean that you have to continue to be that same person.

The people who knew me as a salaried manager might have difficulties in viewing my new role as a true entrepreneur.  As a salaried manager I knew exactly how much I was getting paid every two weeks.  The mentality that I had was being certain and predictable in my actions on a daily basis. As an entrepreneur I have to put myself in a total different role of uncertainty and unpredictability.  The only thing that you can predict is that if you don’t do income generating activities on a daily basis you will not succeed.

We must not let people from the past dictate who we become in the future.  The fact that they knew my son as that shy person in the past does not mean that he have to present his new improve self with his head down.  The lesson that we learn from our kids can send us to reflect on who we are a person.  The saying goes from the mouth of babe to the ears of adults.  Personal development is truly something that we should continuously work on consciously. We must take heed and listen to our heart and take action.  Our thoughts lead to our success only if we act on them.  Procrastination is the only major factor that may stop you from moving to the next chapter in your life.  The book of life is always changing and it is up to you to be instrumental in implementing these changes.  What in your past that is defining and continues to define you?

What Could a 1 Degree Adjustment Do For Your Home Internet Business Opportunity?

Monday, January 11th, 2010

A 1 degree adjustment for your home internet business opportunity could take your business to the next level.  The New Year is here and everyone talks about New Year resolutions.  The most infamous one is losing weight by joining a gym.  The gyms are filled to the brim during January and February and a ghost town for the rest of the year.  The reason for the dismal failure rate of these resolutions may equate to one simple thing, too many life changes too soon.

The success rate for this new exerciser is dismal because the degree changes needed for success is a 180 degree change.  You are making a big lifestyle change that requires a very strong commitment.  The success rate will explode if everyone involved just tried to make a 1 degree change in what they were doing to achieve weight loss.  For example, instead of 7 days a week to begin with starts exercising once per week.  When exercising once per week become a habit then add one more day.   We may use this same concept to make our home internet business opportunity explode for the New Year.

If we were 10 miles apart and we started walking towards each other, but I was 1 degree off we would never arrive at the same location face to face.  It is a whole lot easier for your mind to accept a gradual change as opposed to major shift in your daily income generating activities.  For instance instead of posting 2 ads this week increase it to 3 ads and monitor the results.  The more you demand of your mind to achieve in short term the tougher it is for the mind to accept.  The key to success for 2010 is applying small changes to your home internet business opportunity and not trying to reinvent the wheel.
