4 STEPS TO SUCCESS!??

What is success?

For the business owner, success is defined as "the
achievement of wealth and fame".

For many, wealth and fame remain only dreams, but there
is a four step formula that will allow anyone who truly
desires success to reach their dreams.

Step # 1. Know your product or service

Before you begin promoting your product or service, you
must learn everything about it. You must know the
benefits inside and out.

Don't become a modern day snake oil salesmen by
promoting something you know nothing about. Your
reputation and credibility are on the line.

Promoting something just for the money is a sure fire
way to damage your reputation and lose a customer for
life.

Promote only products or services you truly believe
in and know something about.

Step #2 Set Goals

Your goal is your roadmap to success. Without goals
you wander aimlessly. Until you've sat down and
committed your goals to writing, you are doing nothing
more than daydreaming.

Make your goal big enough to get you excited, but
not so big that you don't believe you can achieve it.

Remember the formula:
Conceiving + Believing = Achieving

Step #3

Make a plan for reaching your goal. A goal is important,
but to accomplish your goal you must have a plan of
action.

Your plan must be detailed enough to help you reach your
goal, but flexible enough to allow for modifications as
circumstances warrant.

We all operate from incomplete knowledge, so once we
begin our journey, we must be prepared to make changes
as our knowledge increases.

Step # 4

Put your plan into action. Without taking action, your
goal will remain a daydream.

Once you start moving in the direction of your goals,
you'll find your goals will meet you half way.

Once your plan is in place, you must begin to act
immediately. Remember an object in motion tends to
remain in motion.

Start moving today.

These four steps may seem simple, but follow them and
they'll take you anywhere you want to go.

FINANCIAL FREEDOM!!!

A definition of time management might be a process of gaining flexibility and cutting back time. The advantage to having a time management plan is that we are loosing something that brings us reward and gaining something that brings us bigger rewards. We end up with a “no loosing” situation if our time management plan is right.

To develop a successful time management plan we must first evaluate our time. We must sit down and ask ourselves how long does it take us to eat? How long does it take us to get dressed and groom for work? How long does it take us to prepare the meals we have to eat? Everything we do takes a certain amount of time. You might start out by writing down just how much time it takes to do each of your very have to tasks each day.

Then sit back and evaluate your list. Are you wasting 10 minutes here and there on those have to items that could be used for something else?

Where our time goes is an essential element to determine for our entire time management plan if we want to begin spending more quality with the most important people of our lives and less wasted time on some routine task. This is the absolute first step of creating your own personalized time management plan, a time management plan that will allow your more time to do the things in life that are most important to you. You must determine where you are wasting time and then decide how to use that time more effectively. Once that time is lost, there is no calling it back.
