Do you lack Resources

Do you lack resources?

How many times have you said, "I cannot afford (fill in the blank)?"

How many times have you said."I do don't know how?"

How many times have you said, "I don't know the right people?"

May I suggest that are not the right questions.

The right question I, "Who do I know that can (fill in the blanks?"

We all know someone who knows someone who knows someone, etc.

All we have to do is ask.

"I don't know who to ask."

Call you friends and ask them, "Who do they know that...."

Do a Google search.

Go to odesk.com or elance.com and contact people who can do the project for you.

Go to Youtube.com. My wife and learned how to put down a tile floor watching those videos.

Go to the library. They have great resources.

Your accountant and financial planners are great sources for contacts. They want to help. Think about it. If you go to them when you need something they can start to know you better and provide better service.

"I don't have the money!"

Call someone you respect and ask someone to mentor you. If you are serious they will be please to help. Most anything you want to know about is available on the Internet. Ask!

"I don't have the time!" How much TV do you watch? Are you sleeping 10 hours a night? For many years I did not have a TV and the only thing I missed was Browns football. It gave me a reason to meet some friends at a bar to watch the game. When I got inspired about my work my need for sleep dropped from 8 hours a night to 6.5 hours a night.

Saying "I don't have the resources" is an excuse, pure and simple.

Stop making excuses and make your dreams happen.

The only thing hold you back is you.

Franchise - Guys, After searching for franchise in food industry which I am familiar with, (no full service, quick stuff like Dunkin Donuts, Jack in the box type etc..) Where I live most of the good ones are taken or corporate own. I live in AZ, does any one recommend a good franchise ? Most of the one I search are no good or brand new lack marketing power, and it’s not worth even getting into. For instance, the franchise I am in currently is a food business the food is nice, but it’s a failing concept, lack of marketing and lack of franchisor support... I think they given up in their own concept. I don’t know want to invest in another concept where I will be doing all the work. Does anyone know any good concept that can actually have a good ROI? Thank you

Re: Not a preferred choice - [quote="tony_blayer":xfxt4hx5]Well work for home is good for a short period of time. Cause there is no creditability in the job. Also no fun... makes one lazy... [/quote:xfxt4hx5] That's one opinion - thankfully my clients don't feel that I lack credibility and the majority of the people I know personally who work from home are certainly not lazy. There are some unmotivated, lazy people in any business and people who lack credibility is any business or location. Credibility should be more about the quality of the work that's done instead of an address. Shri
