Keep The Slate Clean

January 1, 2014 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

The New Year offers us all a clean slate. We get to start over again and write down a new list of goals. The past is just the past. The New Year quickly gave us a clean slate, but most people end up with an unclean slate before February ends. Most people give up on their New Year’s resolutions.

In order to stay strong with your New Year’s resolutions, you need a vision, the right mindset, purpose, and these kick starting ideas. The New Year offers us a sense of hope. This sense of hope is the motivation that will allow you to accomplish your goals.

In order to accomplish your goals throughout the year, you need to hold onto the hope and motivation you get in the New Year. The hope and motivation need to be carried from January to December. This is a great opportunity to transform your business and yourself. Anything you put your mind to can be accomplished in the New Year.

Happy New Year everyone!

Establish Your Purpose

December 31, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

We keep ourselves occupied with work, goals, and procrastinators. When it comes to being productive and working on goals, some days can be tough. In order to stay productive, you need to stay motivated. By establishing your purpose, you will give yourself the long-lasting motivation you need to accomplish your goals.

Start by asking yourself why. Why are you doing what you are doing? Why are you trying to accomplish the goals you want to accomplish? By answering these questions, you will be able to remind yourself what your purpose is.

The more you remind yourself of your purpose, the more motivated you will be to accomplish your goals. On New Year’s Eve, it is important to remind yourself of your purpose as you write your New Year’s resolutions. It is also important to remember your purpose after New Year’s Eve, in the New Year, and every day as well.

The Mindset Affects Productivity More Than Anything Else

Technology has dramatically improved how we conduct our daily lives. We can communicate to each other through social networks, write and reach a big audience, and go from unknown to well-known.

There are also a lot of productivity apps on smartphones, and there are a lot of blog posts about productivity as well. However, people are still unproductive and don’t manage their time properly. Even with all of the technology making our lives simpler, productivity goes astray.

There are some people who are very productive with technology, but there are other people who do not use technology productively. Technology has little impact on a person’s productivity. Instead, it is the mindset that plays a big role in how productive an individual is.

Felipe Guamán Poma de Avala was able to write a 1,200 page letter to a Spanish king centuries before America claimed its independence. Writing a 1,200 page letter would be a challenging task for anyone to this day. However, Poma was able to write the 1,200 page letter without the advanced technology we have today. There was no copy and paste option for Poma, there was no Google, and there was no computer.

Our technology can be as advanced as possible, but the technology does not affect our productivity. Our mindsets and ability to implement the technology we have properly will allow us to stay productive. We do not need advanced technologies. We just need to have the mindset that will allow us to properly utilize what we have.

7 Ways To Kickstart The New Year

December 30, 2013 by Marc Guberti 1 Comment

At the end of every year, we are given a new sense of motivation. The New Year gives us a clean slate. We can start over and accomplish those resolutions. However, 80% of people lose that motivation by February and don’t accomplish their goals. In order to accomplish your resolutions, you need to stick with them. By getting a strong start, you will be able to stick with your resolutions. Here are 10 ways to kickstart the New Year so you can keep that motivation intact.

Have a vision. Imagine what you want to become. This will give you the motivation to implement tactics that will allow you to reach your vision.
Use Must-Do Lists, not To-Do Lists. A To-Do List sounds optional. A Must-Do List will strengthen your commitment towards getting a task done.
Prioritize. What needs to be done first?
Write down all of the things that inspire you. These can be motivational quotes, short stories, or another form of writing. If you want to use pictures or anything else, use them. This will motivate you to accomplish more goals.
Use a day by day plan. Implementing a day by day plan will allow you to identify all of the tasks you need to accomplish. By planning weeks ahead, you will get the best results.
Don’t think of the year as 365 days. Think of a year as 12 weeks. By thinking of a year as 12 weeks, you will be able to get more accomplished in a shorter amount of time.
Reward yourself for accomplishing goals. Each time you accomplish a goal, kick back and relax. You deserve it. Make sure you don’t lose too much time though.

The New Year is the time when motivation reaches its peak. In order to keep your motivation at its peak, you need to kickstart the New Year and stay motivated from the New Year to the last day of December.

Lead The Stampede Book: Summer 2014

December 30, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Back in October, I wrote a blog post called Lead The Stampede. Looking back at it, I realized I could have wrote about leading the stampede in greater detail. There are a lot of components that go into leading the stampede. It wouldn’t be possible to explain all of the components in a single blog post. I considered writing a Part 2 blog post and a bundle of blog posts, but I came up with a better idea.

My next book is going to be Lead The Stampede inspired by the blog post. I am excited about this book because of the following:

This book will most likely be my first 200+ page book. If I don’t reach 200 pages, I’ll be very close.
I am going to create a paperback for the book using CreateSpace.

Lead The Stampede will be about standing out in your niche, the characteristics you need to stand out in your niche, how to effectively manage your time, and more! I’ll bring more updates as summer approaches.

Why Being Consistent Is Essential

Consistency

Being consistent is crucial towards success. By being consistent, people will be able to expect something at a certain time or similar results. There are a lot of benefits towards being consistent.

For starters, writing blog posts on a consistent basis will result in more traffic and more visibility from the search engines. If you always blog every day or every week at the same time, people will know when to look at your blog for a new post.

Consistency also help out a lot with social media. If you consistently tweet a lot on a consistent basis, more people will be able to see your tweets. If you are pinning on a daily basis, people will notice. You will see your repins and retweets increase.

When you come up with your New Year’s resolutions or a giant list of goals, remember that consistency is essential. Over 80% of people give up on their New Year’s resolutions in February because they realize these resolutions have to be carried out from January to December.

By being consistent, people will pay attention to what you have to say. When people pay attention to you in the masses, you will grow a big following that will constantly grow as the days go by.

Showing up isn’t half the battle. Showing up consistently is half the battle.
