15 Minutes Self-Check Up

Do you sometimes feel like you’ve done everything you can on something. Yet, you’re not making any head-way?

Business guru, Rich Schefren, explained that thinking profoundly about one’s business is the best and possibly the ONE saviour for your business.

And I know this applies to every aspect of one’s life – even if you don’t own a business. It could be your career, your family life, personal life etc that needs a little jolting.

So here’s his tips to get your business and life going in the right way again, when things seem somewhat damp…

1. Spend 15 minutes identifying all the obstacles currently standing in the way of your business/life goals. Then choose the one you
believe will give you the biggest payoff if eliminated.

2. Next, spend 15 minutes trying to uncover the root cause of that obstacle. You can do it by thinking about the obstacle and asking yourself, “Why am I experiencing this stumbling block?”

When you have an answer to that question, ask yourself WHY about your answer. Keep repeating the process until you’ve drilled down to the root cause of the obstacle – at least five levels below the surface.

3. Now, spend 15 minutes brainstorming as many different approaches as you can come up with to dealing with the root cause of the problem. Choose the solution you believe to be best.
4. Finally, for the last 15 minutes, think through all the steps you’d need to take to execute the solution you just identified

Unique Talent

I once attended a presentation by Bonnke Shipalana – POWER of 1 – at IBM Sandton (Johannesburg). His presentation was about ‘Finding Your Purpose’

It was such an inspiring and a seminar not to be missed.  He mentioned that people don’t have potential, they are the potential. Each one of us has a Unique Talent that needs to be taken out. You might have noticed it or not, but it exists within us. I tend to agree with him without any doubts. We are unique creatures and no one will resemble us, even twins are different and they have their own Unique Talents.

We got to find our Purpose in life and discover our Unique Talents. It is POSSIBLE and NECESSARY that if we discover our Unique Talent, we can achieve more than we are earning currently – that is if you haven’t found your Unique Talent. If you have found it already, nurture and develop it, because it will make you WEALTHY instead of making you RICH. Wealthy – is when your money works for you.

Our Unique Talent will help us move away slowly from our jobs that we don’t like. I know people who go to work that they don’t like and hope not to be fired and work hard so that they cannot be fired. Some when they go to work, they feel like a double door refrigerator has fallen on their shoulders.

What would happen if you die with your Unique Talent or your Unique Business Idea? If you die now, how do you want the world to remember you?

Would you like to be remembered as a person who always came up with plans and never implemented them or as a difference maker in people’s lives?

Make A Difference

The most people who will make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credential, the most money or the most awards and recognition. They are the ones who care.  It is small,  and yet it makes a significant difference. It is important to recognise the difference makers in your life. pay more attention and look within your circle of friends.

There are two or more people who are contributing in your growth and well-being because they care, not because of what you have achieved or how much you have in your pockets. Notice how are they doing things and they never boast about it. Yet we never say ‘Thank You’ to them, and we focus on those who have most credentials and most money even if they do not contribute nothing in our lives.

This brings me to an important lesson i learned from a gentleman who always manicures our lawn where i stay. This gentle old man said to me, if you want people to love you and treat you well, you have to love and treat you well. People will sense and see that you are lovable and you deserve to be treated well because you are already treating yourself with love and self-respect. People treat us in a certain way because we teach them how to treat us, directly or indirectly.

As a South Afrikan Youth in business, it is my duty to encourage and inspire other youth in business to treat themselves with love and proper manner, so that their customers can see it from them.   those who have a passion in what they do in business, will clearly be seen in their faces and heard from their voices when making sales presentations.

Those who are and/or who will make a difference with love are those we tend to undermine and term a low class. Do you know the name of the lady that makes tea or cleans at your office or where you work?
