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.

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! If there's one thing t...

Attract the Best People to Your Business

  I’m going to let you in on a secret, if you want to build a business that works without you, well you can’t.  You probably weren’t expecting me to say that.  This will take a shift in mindset.  You don’t build your business your team does. Now you’re probably thinking, "yea right, I can’t get them to show up on time.  Do you really expect them to grow my business?"  The answer is, well, yes and no. To have a great business you’ll need to hire great people.  I know you’re thinking, "Hey, I can’t find people to even show up to the interview."  This is going to take another mind shift because most businesses do recruitment all wrong. Recruitment is not about hiring great people; it’s about attracting great people.  Now if you looked at your business from an outside perspective, would the best in your industry want to work for you?  Interesting question, isn’t it? Recruitment is not about hiring it’s about marketing.  You need to crea...

Circle of Success

  I'd like to share with you the Circle of Success for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners because you see, at the top of the circle in the diagram is YOU - the business owner, the business leader. You know, when we got into the business we were so excited. We started building up our business and we were selling and we were talking to more people and we were just doing and we were doing and we were doing and doing it… And we just got exhausted, we ran out of time. So what do we have to do? We have to go back and restart hiring employees to pick up the slack and to cover all the things that we just couldn't get to. We were just spending all of our time now in the business. We were dealing with our customers. We are trying to work with our team. We were trying to get them to do things right the first time, trying to get them to be problem solvers without having  to come and ask us about every little thing. What was really happening in our business is one really simple word to desc...
