Operating from Super Abundance

Operating from Super Abundance

It has long been said that the number one reason for business failure is a lack of capital. Businesses and professionals simply run out of money before they are able to attract the customers and generate sufficient revenue to maintain the business. In the end, they close their doors.

I have two key observations about this:

1. Most businesses lack capital, but it is rarely cash. In my experience, far more small businesses, professionals and managers suffer from a lack of intellectual capital. They don't know their industry, or their customers. They lack vision and passion, or they lack experience. Perhaps they are too greedy, and lack patience. Sometimes, they lack wisdom or integrity, and their performance suffers until ultimately the business fails.

With adequate experience and a solid business plan, the cash is usually available. The more common problem is an intellectual failure.

2. When you operate from "lack", everyone knows it and potential customers flee. Whether you are worried about cash or simply realize that you don't know what you're doing, it shows up as "trying". You "try" to close the sale, or you "try" to market or you "try" to find a solution. Trying is rarely attractive, and customers can sense it.

Become an expert in your industry or profession. Develop the confidence that you KNOW what you're doing and that you come from a place of abundance.

This is one reason highly successful entrepreneurs hire coaches and consultants. They know that coming from a place of abundance shows up in every word and every action, and ultimately creates more and greater abundance.

Re: Super Mario Dethroned - You people are crazy. Super Mario will NEVER be dethroned! Vive la Mario & Luigi! I'm sorry, but remembering those days playing Super Maria for Nintendo and wondering when I would finally hit the last level and be able to beat the evil dragon for my perfect princess will never die. Wii is fantastic, but I'd still prefer the rights to Mario - if even for sentimental value.

Video Resources - Awesome resources - thank you Andy. I've been working on the book trailer creation and promotion chapters in my next promo book and this info is wonderful. There will be a couple more links to resources included in the book. Can you tell us some more about the Super program? I'd have to run it on my desktop after looking at the system requirements. It looks like it will do all sorts of things. Shri
Re: What or Who Sparks Your Business Interest - I guess the business bug has always been with me as I was brought up in a public house. My parents were publicans, so were my grandparents, and later so were my brother and myself. I've also managed a café, co-owned a snack bar and also a second hand store, which is where I discovered computers and the Internet as someone came in one day and asked "can you sell this for me" referring to his computer. After that I learned how to build one from scratch, install the Operating System and then went online to find out how everything worked and how to maintain computers properly. All the time I was doing this there was a thought at the back of my mind telling me that I could make a living on the Internet and eventually I made up my mind to do just that.
Victoria's Secret - Too Sexy? - This will be upsetting for some men. I just heard a report about Victoria's Secret and it was interesting. Their sales were down drastically in the 4th quarter of 2007 and the report was about how they are thinking the company has gotten too far away from the heritage that made it the blockbuster company it is. They are thinking the ads etc have become too sexy and the plan (at the moment) is to make the ads more sophisticated. That would be like the Super Bowl commercial which was very tasteful, but very different from any Victoria's Secret I've seen lately. Who do you all think the current sexy ads are targeting? I think its the men that they hope will buy these items for their female significant others. I hate to give Omarosa any kudos - but most women aren't "sold" on an item by an ad of a near naked sexy woman. Shri
