Will You Let Little Things Get in Your Way?

A very good lesson was learned for both my son and myself. Don't let little 'boo-boo's' stop you from getting up and continuing on your journey of life.

Whether it's your business and you are hung up on a project or you are having issues understand something new - don't stop. Or maybe it was like my son, where he fell down a hill and got his first "major" scrap on his leg.

It did bother him for a short while, he cried and Daddy was a bit nervous watching it all unfold right in front of my eyes (because it could have be a lot worse), but it wasn't. Don't fear things that jump put at you. Don't let the little things stop you from building your life, your business, or whatever it might be that you may be working on...just do not give up.

You must continue learning from everything you do in life. My son learned that it will sting for a bit and over-night, but today it is better. A tad sore, but a lot better. Something things apply to each of us every single day. You may not like what someone said, or how you are being treated by your co-workers or boss. You may be having issues with a job assignment that you are working on. Plow through that wall, break down the barrier that is in front of you and make things and life happen for you. Never, never give up.

So, when the heat gets turned up in the Kitchen, there is no use in jumping out...just put the heat out. The harder you work, the more you learn, the better you will get at everything you will com across in life. Then you will be able to make a little bit better decisions no matter what might come along your path.

But, if you get yourself in a pickle, understand you can make a few mistakes and you will make mistakes in life and in business. It's not how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up!

To your Success,

Re: What is your biggest challenge? Today? - The Big challenge i face many days, is the challenge to stay on schedule. Things always pop up, like family plans and social gatherings. I always end up procrastinating. I've heard it's a very common situation, so does anyone have a resolution to that?
Franchisng - This is a ll excellent information. I guess I am in a limbo about this. I have a great business that has the potential to be an a amazing franchise. But I am bogged down with the day to day work that franchising seems overwhelming. I also don't know if I actually want to take the risk to expand. Do you tamper with a model that works well? Things to think about! Anyone been in this situation?
Re: Joint Ventures?? - I have done a lot of JV's in the past. Things like you join my program and I'll join yours, or your promote my product and I'll promote yours, and other things like that. I've also started sites with other people in a JV where they would have a job like building and maintaining the site and I would market or something like that.
Depends on the business - fred333, I believe it depends on the targeted customer as global search engines are not suitable for marketing some local businesses such as an auto mechanics business for example. The factor that I would weigh up the most would calculating how much profit I would need to make each month to break even. Things to consider include cost of buying or leasing a commercial property, rates you may have to pay.
