The End And An End

August 25, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

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.

We Carve Out Our Own Fate

August 23, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Sometimes we may feel as if we have lost total control over our business. Simply put, we believe that fate will decide. Fate will steer our business in the direction it needs to be right now. Fate will save us.

The only way fate will save us is if we take steps to carving out our own fate. If we don’t carve out our own fate, we are not taking charge of our lives. In order to become successful and truly take charge, you need to start carving out your own fate.

There is no lucky horseshoe that some entrepreneurs get where they go from nothing at all to riches, virality (every time), and a bunch of products. The only way to get from Point A to Point B is to carve out your own fate.

Get your stone and chisel so you can carve out your fate. Do everything you need to do that will result in a good fate. A good fate is much better than a bad one.

Guess What It Is

August 21, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Here are the hints:

Something that is everywhere.

Something that we all want.

Something that is abundant.

Something that is wonderful.

Something that a select few can actually see.

Something that isn’t always utilized properly.

Something that can disappear in the blink of an eye.

Something that waits patiently until someone sees it.

Something that we are afraid of when we get it.

What did you guess it was? If you guessed the answer is opportunity you’re right. If you feel like you’ve lost all of the opportunities, you can create a blog, use social networks, try again, and never quit. Then, you’ll be able to finally catch glimpses of opportunity that were waiting to be found. Opportunity doesn’t find you; you find opportunity.

If It Were Easy

August 21, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Everyone would be doing it.

If being a bestselling author was easy, everyone would be writing their own book and becoming the next bestselling author.

If having a million Twitter followers was easy, everyone would be on Twitter talking with over a million followers.

If having a mansion was easy, everyone would move into a mansion or turn their house into a mansion.

If having a successful business was easy, everyone would be an entrepreneur, and none of them would quit. Sadly, over 90% of them quit within the first 5 years.

If coming up with a big idea was easy, everyone would be thinking of big ideas. The people who can’t think of big ideas sell products similar to their competition.

If running the mile was easy, everyone would be running that mile without stopping. It isn’t as easy as it appear.

However, it’s not easy. That’s why few people do the difficult tasks. The safety zone is not safe at all. Everyone is in the safety zone which makes individuals in the safety zone become invisible.

Becoming a bestselling author, having a million Twitter followers, having a mansion, having a successful business, coming up with a big idea, and running the mile are not easy. As we get more experience, these tasks become easier.

After writing a lot of books, an author can build a following and eventually become a bestselling author.

After consistently tweeting for years and going viral, it is possible for someone to reach a million followers without knowing how to sing well or buying a million followers.

Everyone who started with a business started at the bottom. Macintosh computers were first made in garage. Now Apple is a multibillion dollar company that pays billions of dollars in taxes. They can pay those billion dollars in taxes and still make a profit with their Macs, iPhones, iPads, and more. Amazon started out as a bookstore. Now Jeff Bezos is a billionaire who recently bought the Washington Post. Not bad for “another bookstore.”

When someone thinks of a big idea, and creates a business based on that big idea, that person has a good chance of becoming successful. Twitter, Facebook. Instagram, Pinterest, and Google are some of the big ideas. The person who came up with an idea for any of these social networks (or Google) is either a millionaire or a billionaire. That’s not bad for an idea that started out on paper. Back in 2004, people would have looked at you funny if you talked about Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest. Google was around at that time, but Google+ was not.

Running the mile becomes easy after a lot of practice. People give up when they run the mile for the first time because it’s excruciating. The people who run day after day will be able to easily run the mile.

It’s not easy, but with practice, dedication, and commitment, you will make it easy.

When Plan A Fails

August 20, 2013 by Marc Guberti 1 Comment

Repetition is the act of doing the same thing multiple times. However, there are some lessons we can learn from this word.

If you plant a seed and don’t water it, the seed will shrivel up and die. If you plant another seed, and you don’t water it, don’t expect different results. That seed will shrivel up and die as well.

When you see something isn’t working, you need to make a change. Those seeds shriveled up and died because they weren’t getting enough water. Giving them the same amount of water doesn’t solve the problem. You need to make a change. Plan A isn’t working at all.

Start by giving the seed more water. If the seed still shrivels up and dies, you know you didn’t give the seed enough water. However, if the seed dies because you poured in too much water, you know a change needs to be made.

When Plan B doesn’t work, that doesn’t give you the option to go back to Plan A. If Plan A didn’t work before, it won’t work again. What you need to do is go for Plan C. Give the seed water frequently. Give the seed some water in the morning, some water in the afternoon, and some in the evening.

If Plan C doesn’t work, you don’t go back to Plan A or Plan B. You go to Plan D, Plan E, Plan F, Plan G, and any other plan you get to. If you end up getting to Plan Z, go to Plan AB. If something didn’t work for you the first time, chances are it won’t work the second time. If the car’s engine doesn’t start, and you don’t do anything to your car’s engine, it won’t start if you try again. You have to get that engine fixed.

Some people have many plans that don’t work. It took Thomas Edison over 10,000 experiments to finalize the first working lightbulb. Imagine all of the Plan A’s and Plan B’s Edison had. One of the plans worked because he knew what didn’t work. Plan A didn’t work so he moved on to Plan B. Plan B didn’t work so he moved on to Plan C.

We can’t continue investing money and time into something that doesn’t work. TV ads are not as effective as they used to be (I’ve been reading Purple Cow). When Plan A fails, it’s necessary to move on to the next plan. If you don’t want to give up on your business, make a change to your business. Plan B doesn’t always mean giving up everything you have worked on. Plan B means trying to find a way to make something work. As long as it works, you don’t have to come up with any plans. When Plan B doesn’t work anymore, it’s time to move on to Plan C.

As long as you don’t give up, you will find a successful plan. The guy who came up with the movie Rocky was so poor that he had to sell his dog so he could buy himself food (he ended up getting his dog back. It’s an incredible story although I don’t have enough time to go in detail about it). He had tons of Plan A’s and Plan B’s, but now we know the story of Rocky. We all know the Rocky music when we hear it.

Super-Book For Your 2014 New Year’s Resolutions

August 19, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

There are too many people who are not implementing their ideas. 2013 will give way to 2014, and then everyone writes down their New Year’s Resolutions. The only problem is that over 80% of people give up on their New Year’s Resolutions by the end of January.

I’m here to change that. I have accomplished, or am on the verge of accomplishing, all of my New Year’s Resolutions that I wrote down back in 2013. I am one of the 20% who doesn’t give up on New Year’s Resolutions.

I want more people to become a part of that 20% which is why I am coming out with a giant size book that will help you keep your New Year’s Resolutions and improve your business in 2014. The book will be called 365 Ways To Improve Your Business For 2014.

365 Ways To Improve Your Business For 2014 is the answer to keeping your New Year’s Resolutions alive. The book will hold you accountable for every month, but that’s not all.

This book will guide you to successfully using social media, increasing your blog traffic by a landslide, self publishing your own books (electronic and paperback), creating a successful YouTube channel, and more.

Throughout the entire book, you will also be able to win prizes. You read that right. Some of the prizes will be my other books and Amazon Gift Cards, but at the end of 2014, I’ll throw in something else (I’m currently deciding between a $100 Amazon Gift Cards, my 5 favorite books, and a free Skype with me. Any other suggestions would be great).

Throughout the entire year, you’ll be able to interact with my on Twitter with a special hashtag in the book. If you have any questions, or you want to exercise the use of your bragging rights, use that hashtag. I will answer all of your questions.

I could easily charge $9.97 for this book, or I could even charge $4.97 for this book. However, 365 Ways To Improve Your Business For 2014 is only going to cost $3.65 (I have to make it $3.99 for the iBookStore though. I don’t have a choice). That’s only a penny a day!

The reason I’m charging only $3.65 for this book is because it shouldn’t cost a lot of money for someone to be held accountable to accomplish their goals. This book will be published at the end of November. Success awaits you.
