A Time to Fly: Your Money and Your Habits

Guest post by: Pia Lord

Article Overview: The best people are always the ones that develop the positive side of things. They may not always be right but they are always enthusiastic, upbeat and go-getters. They don't let life weigh them down. They go and get their life. They make it happen, not waiting for anyone else to do it for them.

A Time to Fly: Your Money and Your Habits



It takes more that a burst of inspiration to change your life. To learn new skills and to create true change requires that you adopt and do new things.

It is not always easy to overcome bad habit such as procrastination, boredom, laziness, self introversion or home bodies. Our ability to outshine our former selves is a must for growth. We have to be able to reach out to others and participate in the lives of others to really make an impact on our society, and our fellow man.

Consistent growth will only occur when we can step outside ourselves. Fear, pain, and shyness can hold us back. These are very real things that can prevent our reaching for success. Not only do they prevent us from trying, but they build in us even greater fears.

Such is a vicious cycle that can be broken however. With recognition, guidance and self motivation, we can “come out of our shell” and grow in the skills that bring success.

Success skills are based in leadership, outgoing personalities, motivational speaking, leading people from any walk of life to a path that is great. Truly getting to know another person or their business requires a lending hand and a sympathetic ear. When you can get someone to tell you about them and their business you have made some progress. You have gained friendship, trust, knowledge about all of their needs. Only in this way can you thus serve them.

Re: What I'm reading this weekend - Sept 10, 2010 - Glad you liked it David! I only managed to get partway through the list today because my one year old was looking for some playtime but I did read the Zen Habits one - I love reading Zen Habits while relaxing at a coffee shop!

Question: What has been your biggest business challenge? - Regardless of the industry they may be in, it seems all small business owners and entrepreneurs face similar key challenges in growing their business and becoming as profitable as they would like. These can be grouped into the categories of "Time", "Team", "Money", and "Exit Strategy". What has been your most significant challenge, the one that seems to be your biggest hurdle to moving forward and achieving the level of business success (however you define that) that you would like to? If you could have one issue solved in your business, what would that be? Your insights are invaluable and I appreciate your honesty. Regards, Gavin
Re: My 3 best business books - 1. Think and Grow Rich - Napoleon Hill 2. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen R. Covey 3. Permission Marketing - Seth Godin Think and Grow Rich seems more powerful each time I read it or dip into it. The 7 Habits not only offers some very effective ways to organize your life (which I have yet to master!), but also some great quotations and thought provoking statements including this by Nazi concentration camp survivor, Viktor Frankl: [i:2naxzsom]Between stimulus and response, man has the freedom to choose.[/i:2naxzsom] Seth Godin's Permission Marketing is a good read for anybody seeking to understand how to approach doing business on the Internet in the right way with regard to winning people's trust.
