Staying Committed With The Help Of A Pen And Notebook

by Leave a Comment

In order to accomplish all of your goals, you have to stay committed from Day 1 until you complete your goal. Going astray for a short amount of time can be devastating for your goal.

In order to stay committed, you have to make the investment for your business to buy a notebook and a pen. If you have both of those, you’re ahead of the game.

When I write down my goals, I get them accomplished. One of the goals I wrote down was to write a book. I didn’t just write a book, but now I have written many books which are all on Kindle.

When you write down your goals on a daily basis, you are staying committed to that goal. When you stay committed, success greets you on the other side, and like a best friend, doesn’t leave.

Starting Soon

The question isn’t whether we want to start or not. The question is when you will start. It’s not that people don’t want to start. It’s that people don’t want to stay committed. Starting soon is another way of saying it won’t happen.

If you want to achieve new heights for your business, you won’t get them by implementing your ideas soon, later, or eventually. You implement your ideas by saying now.

Be a now person. It’s very important. If you’re a now person, you will be able to achieve greatness for your business. People who start soon only start when they have no other option. People who start now force themselves to do the work that will allow them to achieve greatness.

The End And An End

The ending is something that cannot be escaped. It’s definite, and there is no hope of a comeback.

An end is something that cannot be escaped either. It’s definite as well, but there is always another way to comeback.

The words you speak are the words you become. When businesses fall apart, people are quick to say it’s the end. Instead of being the end, it’s an end. When one door closes, another one opens.

Tunnel Vision VS Multi Tasking

Tunnel vision is another way of saying that you’re focused on one thing. If you’re recording a video right now, you’re only thinking of that video. That Twitter update doesn’t matter until you finish recording the video. That’s tunnel vision.

Multi Tasking is trying to write in a notebook and look at your statistics at the same time. You write in your notebook, and then you look up every once in a while to look at the statistics. That’s multi tasking.

Multi tasking seems like the better choice since you get two things done at the same time. I wrote a blog post about multi tasking saying that is was possible. I read other people’s blogs while running on the treadmill.

If you have a choice, tunnel vision is the way to go. Multi tasking allows you to accomplish your goals based on quantity. Tunnel vision allows you to accomplish those goals with quality. When you’re taking a break from recording that video, you can check that Twitter update and reply quickly, but then it’s back to the video.

With tunnel vision, when you see something else emerge, you ignore it or spend little time on it. Then, you go back to what you were doing. I find tunnel vision very useful when it comes to writing one of my books or blog posts.

However, when it comes to taking notes, it is essential to multi task. When the speaker says something important, you write it down and wait for the speaker to say something else that is important.

Multi tasking and tunnel vision have their own benefits. In some cases, multi tasking will work better than tunnel vision. If you listen to what the speaker has to say, and you don’t write anything down, what have you learned? However, tunnel vision is usually the better approach. Usually doesn’t mean always though.

Scary Words

by Leave a Comment

Fear, quit, fail, collapse, and unsaleable (I made that one up) are some of the scary words out there.

They are just words. Remember that. You decide whether you live by these words or just know what the words mean.

Fear doesn’t exist. It’s an illusion that we create. Fear is the greatest enemy of success, especially the fear of failure.

Failure isn’t something to fear. People who fail and don’t quit are destined to succeed eventually.

We are held back by those words. Free yourself from the shackles of your mind and explore your true potential. Everyone is destined for greatness. You just have to take steps towards that greatness.

Why More Teenagers Will Have Their Own Businesses Soon

by Leave a Comment

The movement is coming. I am proof of that movement. In the upcoming years, more teenagers will have their business than ever before. Some teenagers who have businesses are already making it big.

Teenagers spend a lot of time on social media. In fact, they spend 7 hours a day consuming media. What if that media were productive for a business? Teenagers spend a lot of time on Twitter, Facebook, and all of the other social networks.

Teenagers are writing update after update on social networks. What if writing those updates can turn into something bigger, such as a blog post. Before I blogged every day, I used social media every day (I still do). I sent update after update, and today, I send blog post after blog post.

Blog post after blog post turned into book after book. I currently have 4 books, a book about blogging to be published in September, a book about 365 ways to improve your business being published in November, and a book called 7 Habits Of Highly Effective Entrepreneurs to be published in February.

I started with updates on my social networks, and here I am today. Many of my friends are asking me how I started my blog. When I told them about my new books, they wanted to know how I sell those books. Teenagers are curious, and there will be more who decide to give their business ideas a try.

When more teenagers give their business ideas a try, it trends. Teenagers jump on the trends. That’s why many teenagers are on Instagram. Instagram was the newest trend when it was launched back in 2010. Now there are millions of people on Instagram, and many of those users are teenagers.

The age of waiting for working papers is over. Many teenagers will be starting their own businesses in the near future.
