HANDLING NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN BUSINESS (THE MINDING YOUR BIZ MYB™ SERIES)

During the early stage of business, there will be excitement and the temptation to do many things at once.  Try to contain it so your enthusiasm does not burn out fast.  Let go of distracting ‘great’ ideas so you can focus on the purpose of your business.  Better still, you can store in an ‘idea bank’ where you can go back to them later.

 
Trust yourself sometimes and don’t at other times.  It’s healthy for you and your business.  Be ready for opportunities.  You can adopt the IUF™ approach.

(I)GNORE – totally unrelated opportunities.  These will waste your time & resources.  It may appear attractive, but it will not help or be useful to you or your business in the long term.

(U)SE NOW – those opportunities which are usually one-offs but related to your long term vision/goal.

(F)OCUS ON – those opportunities related to your long term vision.

Pursue pragmatic education that places emphasis on practice and simplicity.  This means you are learning and applying it in your business at the same time.

Don’t stop learning, growing, and innovating. Your business depends on it.

THE SEVEN DAYS MYB™ QUOTES TO GET YOU FIRED UP!

                       

                              
DAY 1 – tomorrow belongs to those who see opportunities and act now before they become obvious.

DAY 2 – helping others is not about giving money.  Help others by providing solutions.  This can become your earning points to wealth.

DAY 3 – you cannot know everything.  Learn about different things but focus on a few.  The few will determine your path in life.

DAY 4 – every idea is a potential million-dollar industry.  Don’t rush.  Take time to think and develop that idea properly.

DAY 5 – keep a note of past successes + failures.  Reflecting on them can provide greater insights in life and business.  #learnandgrow #liferules

DAY 6 – never be afraid to offer your talents for free.  It is likely to increase your confidence and create opportunities you never recognized before.

DAY 7 – describe who you want to be in one word.  Commit it to memory.  This is your current mission statement.  Make it a part of your daily activities.

I still remain passionately committed to your success!

THAT SPECIAL GIFT!!!!

What makes giving special?

 

First, the intention TO GIVE, and then the thought put into the giving process.


You give not because you have too much; but because you are grateful for what you have. There can be no better way of expressing gratitude than by giving.

HEALTH IS PRICELESS!

And so today, as I promised... consider this - Giving a gift of HEALTH.


Health is priceless! Have you ever felt sick, really sick? Then you know what it means to be hale & healthy. There are a number of persons willing to give anything to be healthy. Why not give someone this gift this season?


'I can't afford it', may be your response, but you will be amazed to find that you can by taking extra steps to inquire. Let me give you an example. Not so long ago, I discovered that with N15,000 (less than $ 90) you can get a full year health plan. And yes, it includes benefits like consultations, drugs, maternity, tests, etc. I know it, I have seen it and have been a part of it.


So why not give something different, something that the giver will not be able to repay back - the gift of a full year health benefit.


Are you interested? Send me a mail - kleanwash@gmail.com for more information.

Remember – information remains the new currency.
HAPPY HOLIDAY!



PLEASE READ!!!!!

During the holiday period, there is a tendency to over indulge. Here are some expert tips.

1) Think quality not quantity. Instead of buying a cheap gift that may not be appreciated, invest in a Card - that has a well crafted & heartfelt message (words that hug you like a duvet!).

2) Plan your spending. Draw up a list of the things you are buying. Go to the market, mall with this list to reduce the temptation to over spend!

YOU CAN STILL W-I-N!

Everyone’s goal in life is to win. It’s perfectly normal to win some and lose some, unless you are not being true to yourself.

Do you have a hectic work schedule? Have you been trying to save up some money to start a business? Are you dealing with declining profits? Don’t worry, you are about to boost your chances!

As the holidays draw near, how do you create a WIN-WIN situation in business, your personal life or job??????????????????

DO S-O-M-E-T-H-I-N-G BIG FOR SOMEONE!

For a BUSINESS - Buy a unique gift for each customer. Forget about the branded mugs, jotters, pens, etc. get a real personal and special gift. For example – buy a bouquet of flowers for a female customer with a note attached – ‘From Company A. we love you’. Or you can do something obvious for your community; plan a Christmas visit to an orphanage, or show massive support for a local initiative.

For an INDIVIDUAL – Are you thinking of starting a business with a friend, a colleague? Then buy an interesting book on the subject matter. For example a book on ‘great partnership’. Remember to include your name and a heartfelt message. Also, remember your boss. Please get something for the big man!

A WIN-WIN

In the end, you make someone feel appreciated and boost your chances in work, greater business patronage or business opportunity.
So get going for “your position determines your attraction”.

This will create more rewarding and earning opportunities in the coming year.

BE E-F-F-I-C-E-N-T WHILE YOU W-A-I-T

Have you found this frustrating?

Waiting for the kettle to boil? Waiting for the end of the month to settle certain bills? Waiting to hear from a prospective employer? Waiting for the bank to approval your business loan? Waiting for customers to place orders? Waiting for someone to follow you on twitter; like your facebook page or add a comment? The list is endless!

Waiting doesn’t have to be frustrating. It is not a waste of time. When you utilize the waiting period, you gain efficiency; you improve on your learning curve.

Explore these tips.

For a Business - use the waiting period to review your strategies and goals. Are your closest pals willing to patronize you? Get information from similar businesses with better performances.

For an individual – use the periods to search for alternative sources of income. It can be a part time job, partnership, a startup or even volunteering! So turn those frustrating periods each day into rewarding opportunities.

“YOU CAN; YOU WILL; LIFE CAN BE BETTER FOR YOU”!
