Why most people don't accomplish their New Years...
Most people make blanket statements for their resolutions. Things like “I’m going to get healthy” or “I’m going to make my business successful”.

Being Uncomfortable
I keep hearing people say “you have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable” to be successful. While I do agree with this, I think that people take it too far.

Thoughts
Life is meant to be lived. Think about the life you want to have and start taking small steps towards it. It took you a lifetime to get to where you are now, so don’t feel like it all has to change overnight. Decide on one thing that you can change today and do it. Tell the world that you are doing it so that you will be held accountable and surround yourself with people that will...

Who uses Google+? What do you like about it?
Don’t get so caught up in convincing someone of why they want your product/service that you forget to actually ask them what it is that they really want.

WatchThanks @mark_da_silva for reminding me about this! Business owners need to get very clear on this before anything else.
What's in it for me?
It never ceases to amaze me how many people just don’t understand the power of giving. I keep meeting people that only want to refer their friends and family if they get compensated in return. Please do yourself a favor… Refer people to something because you want to! Don’t just do it because you might get something out of it. The funny thing is that if you do refer people with...

Now more than ever it seems, we need ethics in business. When do we draw the line between making money and helping people? The great businesses of the future will be the ones that make money in proportion to how much they are helping people.

Guess what?? It's broke!
If it aint broke don’t fix it. A Timeless piece of advice. Far too many have wasted far too much time and money trying to fix or change something that is working perfectly fine.

For the last 30 years, business has been done a certain way. It has...
