Everyone Is Unique

by Leave a Comment

It is true. Everyone is unique in their own way. However, no one knows that these people are unique. People forget to mention their talents and why they are unique in their bio.

Many successful bloggers have a long bio. Those bios contain a lot of information about the blogger. These bios explain why the blogger is unique. A bio that expresses how unique the blogger is will allow that blogger to stand out from the crowd.

What makes you unique? What talent do you have that few people have? These are the questions that you have to answer in the bio of your blog, website, Twitter handle, or any other online presence that you have. Then you will be able to stand out from the crowd, and when you make yourself stand out from the crowd, you will get more visitors.

Do Or Don’t

You decide whether or not you get your goals accomplished. You are your own tool for success or your own tool for decline. It depends on how you use your talents and get them done. We all have unlimited potential, but showing off that potential is the challenging part.

Do what you want to do. Do your work. See the results. Make things happen.

Cows Are Business Models

Cows are farm animals that produce milk. Cows are also a good business model for entrepreneurs to follow. It seems as if more people are teaching people good business models through stranger methods, but this one does apply.

I look at a lot of random facts, but there was one fact that caught my eye. You can lead a cow upstairs, but a cow will not go back down. Everyone wants to increase sales and never plummet, but that is not the message this fact should give.

Cows are lead by a person to walk up the stairs as we are led up the stairs by good mentors. Cows cannot go down the stairs, or back into the past. Cows can only continue from where they are.

There are too many people looking back into the past, or what should have happened. Cows can’t walk back down stairs, and when you are working on your business, neither should you.

Entrepreneurs Take Risks

There will be a point when an entrepreneur will have to make a risk for his or her business. Does the risk pay off? Not always. Are risks good to take? It depends on the risk. All of the risks entrepreneurs take make them different from everyone else.

A week ago, I talked about how I would increase the frequency of blog posts from one post every day to two posts every day. True to my word, the first one comes at 9 a.m. like always, but the second one comes at 9 p.m.

I haven’t seen my traffic stats go from 100 visitors a day to over 1,000 visitors a day just yet, but I haven’t seen my traffic stats go from 100 visitors a day to 50 visitors a day either. Everything is remaining constant. By looking at my traffic stats months later, I will be able to judge whether or not I made the right decision.

Two Great Quotes From Steve Jobs

by Leave a Comment

With the Steve Jobs movie coming out in August, I decided to look at some of Steve Jobs’ inspirational quotes. These were the two that I liked the most.

 

“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.”

 

“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.[…] It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.”

Steve Jobs loved what he did, and he was able to make a comeback when Apple fired him. That takes a lot of talent. The message in both of his inspirational quotes are accurate.

We all work for a long time. Some people work more than others, but working will take up a lot of time. We have the option to enjoy what we do or grunt as we work. Choosing something to work on that you like will result in you having fun with your work.

People with bad jobs go through the days of work and talk about their bad job with other people. That is not the right way to live. We only live once. In fact, the thought of death motivated Steve Jobs to do more work and make an impact on the world.

There aren’t many people who like getting fired from their company. Getting fired from the company you started is a horrible punishment that Steve Jobs had to endure. Sometimes we will have to step out of our comfort zone. Everything will start to look different.

Steve Jobs didn’t lose his faith. He created Pixar which Disney later bought for $7.4 billion. Steve Jobs also regained position as Apple’s CEO. He lead the company from near bankruptcy to billions.

Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. When that happens, just get up and continue.

Make Someone Else’s Idea Better

Everyone thinks the Oreo cookie was made by Oreo. Despite the common belief, it was actually Hydrox who invented the Oreo cookie in 1908. The Oreo cookie that we know today is simply a modification of the Hydrox cookie.

Although the Hydrox and Oreo cookies look very similar, some minor adjustments are the difference between a company that became an unknown and a company that now makes over a billion dollars every year.

When you look at what each cookie looks like, especially from a long distance, they look identical.
