Breaking Through - How to Remove "Stuck" from your vocabulary - Series 5 of 5

What is Stuck? It is often described as the feeling of being in the rut of a unwanted turn in your professional and personal journey. Take these tips with you today:

ACTION

So many times I've heard how people intellectually "get it" when it comes to leadership, taking control, and being proactive in their lives and careers. However, one rule is indisputable: If you're not actually DOING it, you DON'T get it. You just know how to talk about it. That's all.

When you "get" something, that is an action word. You are pro-actively moving towards a certain objective. There's no longer any "talking" or lengthy conversations about what needs to be done. Instead, you are developing a track record of actions you have already put into place to accomplish your goal and you can already begin analyzing your progress and making adjustments. This type of mentality is a critical "point" in your journey. This determination will cause you to succeed over obstacles that you once thought were absolutely impossible. Next week, we'll discuss confronting those obstacles and actually looking forward to them as you live in expectation of their presence along your journey. Keep action in front of you. Do not settle. You will go farther than you ever thought possible.

Learning from other people's mistakes (Books) - Most business books are written by people who tell of success stories, and how they were achieved. I'm wondering if people learn more by reading about the stories of failure? Or about how people achieved success...and then frittered it away through bad business practice. I checked two books out of the library yesterday. Apple: The Inside Story of Intrigue, Egomania, and Business Blunders, by Jim Carlton (started as a startup in 1976, sales peaked in 1995, and even then they were a "troubled" company, and now they've only got a 3% market share. (And I must admit I used to love Macs, but don't anymore...) and Breaking Windows: How Bill Gates Fumbled the Future of Microsoft, by David Bank. "Breaking Windows" tells the story of the battle for the soul of Microsoft that raged inside the company from 1997 to 2000 and continues to reverbrate today." The book "breaks new ground in its analysis of Microsoft's past and future business strategies. As Microsoft faces the waning importance of Windows, rallies behind XML, and confronts the open-source insurgency, the past Bank reveals is vital to understanding the future of this company and the still unfinished digital revolution it helped unleash.

Breaking while talking in between which mostly takes place because of lack of knowledge of the product and confidence 2. One must never think negative and keep trying along with professional tone 3. It has been reported many times that because of not getting sales even after trying many times frustration occurs which also should be avoided 4. One must not talk to make sale but to create a relationship, this must be in mind in order to the sales to follow
