7 Keys To A Quality Life

 

As a business coach, I always try to stress that your business should not be your end-all. It should be the vehicle to help you get what you really want out of life.

Your life shouldn’t be your business. Your business should get you more out of life.

Here are what I believe to be are the 7 keys to improving ourselves and achieving the quality of life we want and deserve.

1. Quality of Results – To increase our quality of life we need to get better results. That’s easier said than done. How do we increase the quality of our results?

2. Quality of Actions – By increasing the quality of our actions we will improve the quality of results. So how, you might ask?

3. Quality of Decisions – To increase the quality of our actions we need to make better decisions. The next key will help us to increase the quality of our decisions.

4. Quality of Questions – The better the questions, the better the decisions you will make. One of the key ways that I help my clients as a business coach is by asking difficult questions and coaching my clients to start asking themselves those difficult questions.

5. Quality of Beliefs & Dreams – You can’t ask better questions if you don’t know what you don’t know. When you have strong beliefs and big dreams you begin to start asking better questions because you need to know why. You’ll start asking yourself what is keeping me from achieving that success. But how can someone build better and bigger dreams and a stronger belief system?

6. Quality of Education – By increasing our quality of education, always trying to learn more, our beliefs will get stronger and our dreams will get bigger.

7. Quality of Mentor/Teacher – We have to first admit that we don’t know everything. Today we have the ability to access many mentors and teachers not necessarily personally but through their workshops, books, CD’s, DVD’s, etc.

One person I consider to be my mentor but have never actually met is Jim Rohn. He just recently passed away and will be missed by many. He said two things that have always stuck with me, “You have to work harder on yourself than you do on your job” and “Don’t wish that your life was easier, wish that you were better”.

If we strive to have a mentor who can teach us and mentor us to look at the world and ourselves from a new light, we will increase the quality of our education which will lead to higher quality beliefs and dreams, which will allow us to ask better questions to make better decisions, which will allow us to take better actions which will lead to achieving better results and thus increase your quality of life.

Engagement is the Way to Win in Business

Small and medium-sized businesses are the life-blood of our economy, but they face specific, ever-increasing challenges. The world is in the midst of an employee engagement crisis, with serious and potentially lasting repercussions for the global economy. Without a doubt, one of the greatest challenges SME’s currently face is the attraction and retention of talent. Intelligent, honest, hardworking staff are critical to an organization’s ongoing success, but now more than ever, good people are hard to find – and they are even harder to hold on to! To ensure employee job fulfillment, loyalty and maximum ROI, the key ingredient that is so often missing is Engagement. In a recent Gallup poll, it was revealed that only 13% of the world’s employees are engaged at work, and most disengaged employees would change employers right now for as little as a 5% pay increase.

6 Keys To Improve Your Marketing Success

What is the true test of marketing success? I call it testing and measuring. Most people hate it that’s because there’s a chance, however remote, that every marketing strategy that you're going to try will not work the first time you try it. In other words, it's possible that you could be spending money without seeing any returns, and that sucks. No one wants that. But consider this: you’ve probably been testing and measuring all your business life. Remember that old newspaper ad that you tried and it didn't work or radio spots, maybe, that did okay, and you weren't even sure if they worked or not. Well, that's what testing is. Testing what works and what doesn't. The next step is really to do it properly; to do it with the proper intention. In this business tip, you will learn 6 steps on how to successfully determine what works and what doesn't. Start by asking people where they heard about you. Start right now. Do it immediately!

Fire Yourself From Your Business

  If you want to grow your business, there's one person you need to fire right now. This person is holding you back from scaling up your business to the next level. So who am I talking about? You probably guessed it. Yup, I'm talking about you - the Business Owner. Just think about it for a minute. You probably have so much on your plate that you can't do everything well. In this business tip, I'm going to share a strategy to help you fire yourself from the things that you don't want to do or really shouldn't be doing. What I'm saying is, fire yourself from the non-strategic elements of your business. What I've seen is that the business owners and particularly, maybe founders of the company, they're still hanging on to some of the tasks that they used to do when they started their business. Well, whether it’s sales or some level of service delivery. This is something that they've always done. They’re probably good at it or they really enjoy doing
