Are You a Super Achiever?

Are you a super achiever or just average. The difference between them is a fine line that some of us find it hard to cross over on our own. Darren Hardy says that there are 10 x-factors super achievers have that make the difference:

1. Relentless Drive - Never satisfied. Urban Meyer sums it up with his +2 attitude.

2. Supersize thinking - Don't think small. Set goals so big you have to force yourself to grow into them

3. They find their Massive Leverage. They know that their super power is the one thing of value that they bring that no one else can and that will leverage their success by making them stand out

4. They have MANIACAL FOCUS. They know how to say no to things that will distract them from their mission.

5 Unrelenting Resilience - They "F" up a lot. They fail up. They know that each failure is an opportunity to learn, grow and get closer to their goal.

6. They have an Obsessive and Constant Pursuit of Better- The Japanese have a concept for this called Kaizen. Always look at improving. If we can improve just 1% over yesterday, imagine how much better we would be after a year.

7. Steadfast Consistency - What's the definition of try?- I will do it until it is too hard. It's that consistent effort day in and day out especially when it feels hard and you don't want to do it. Consistency always wins and makes you stand out.

8. A Power Tribe - Who are your go to people for inspiration, truth, and accountability?

9 Consummate Learning. Jim Rohn sums it up best when he said that you got to learn to earn. Life is about going up the down escalator. If we stop, we stop learning. We are not in the same place because the world is passing you by. Be constantly learning to be more, so you can do more of the right things, to have the life you want.

10. Finally, have Un-shakable Resolve. Too many people hope to be successful, they wish to be better, Resolve is turning your wants, your could's and should's into Have to's and Must do's. I will do it or else.

So share below what is the 1 thing you resolve to do every day to make yourself a success?

Are Your Employees Keeping Up With Your Growth?

There is one challenge that I see that keeps popping up for organizations that hold them and their teams back from achieving more. Are your employees having a hard time keeping up with how rapidly your business is growing? If your team is struggling to handle the capacity of work that comes from scaling your business, I'm going to suggest to you a few strategies to help them to keep pace with your organizational growth. If you've noticed that projects seem to be falling through the cracks, the more work that your business has, this is a great thing for your business but not so good with the things that are falling through the cracks, right? I suggest to don't be too hard on your employees because maybe it might just be very hard and difficult to adjust to the growth of the heavier capacity of the work that they now have. Instead of cracking down on them, you need to focus on being heavy on accountability. If your employees are missing deadlines or aren't completing ...

How Much Does It Cost You To Buy A Customer?

In this business tip, I am going to focus on marketing and how to market an investment and not an expense. Lots of people look at marketing as an expense in their business. They're skeptical about marketing. They're afraid to put money into marketing because they think it really doesn't work, and all they do is they spend money and they see no results. And that's because their marketing focus is all wrong. When you do marketing right, it needs to be looked at as an investment. So what do I mean by that? Some people might not like to hear this, but when it comes down to it, Marketing is Math. It's all about understanding how much does it cost you to buy a customer? In other words, if you spent a $1000 on advertising and get 10 new customers, you spent $100 to buy each customers. Spend a $5000 and you get to 10 customers, you're gonna spend $500 to get each new customer. The next thing we need to look at in marketing is how do we buy customers at an effective pr...

The Manager Mindset Shift

In today's business tip, I want to discuss and actually distinguish the difference between a leader and a manager because leadership is not just a job title. Being a good manager takes a mind shift that takes you from being a producer to a more productive manager. Anyone at any level of an organization can be a leader. I'm specifically referring to people that report to you, or that you're in charge of guiding them to grow and succeed, and then how you get more out of that whether you are up and coming manager or even the owner of the organization. Being a manager takes a mind shift. A mind shift that can be very difficult for some. Once someone becomes a manager, their success is no longer determined by their individual contribution. Their success is now measured by the results of their team. I've seen this a lot when I've seen the top producers get promoted to a manager. Just think about this for the most part. These are people who are promoted internally in ...
