How To Be Lucky In Life

To Be Lucky, Be Prepared

I remember the exact moment I learned the principle of preparing for luck.nnI was on the wrestling team. Now, if thereâs one thing I can tell you about any sport, it is that wrestling is probably the sport that has the least luck. There are only two people out on the mat, so you cannot blame it on your teammates, your mother, your father, or your coach. And guess what? There is no weather because we do the whole thing indoors, so you canât say, âIt was rainingâ or â

Find Business Success â Change The 80/20 Rule And Eliminate Distractions

What is the traditional approach for trying to get focused in business? It is the Pareto principle, commonly called the 80/20 rule, meaning that 20 percent of the effort or activity is always responsible for 80 percent of the results.nnItâs absolutely ludicrous and out of date. Paretoâs not around anymore. The principle has already been updated once, by Dr. Edwards Deming. He took a little company called Toyota and made it into the worldâs biggest auto company. Deming s

Focus On Decision Making And Execution

Once you have a clear laser-beam focus on a WOW level goal, there are two other keys to remember. nnSpeed of DecisionnThe first is speed of decision. When I go out to companies as a consultant and to survey employees, the number-one frustration of most employees is the decisions their bosses havenât made. And the reason most bosses havenât made the decisions is that they donât know what their focus is. They donât know what they are actually trying to achieve.nnMake yo

Does it pay to do more with less and focus more? nnFocus is the key to your profits!nnLook at one of my favorite examples: Ray Kroc, founder of McDonald’s. nnRay used to get asked, “When are you going to diversify?” He had a great answer for this question: “We will diversify into new businesses other than this one-pattern hamburger shop as soon as all of the restrooms in all of the McDonald’s are all working properly and are cleaned at the same t

Focus Is The Key To A Successful Business

In my experience with building businesses, I know that within days, literally, of starting a business that business starts to lose focus. I’ve learned through all the years of creating more than 35 companies and working in 35 countries that focus is the only challenge in business. nnWhat you focus on is an “incision from your decision.” It subtracts you from everything else. nnWhen you’re in focus, you’re like a 100 percent effective laser beam.

Is A Best Selling Book Hiding In Your Computer?

Many authors, more than you could possibly believe, have the one of the greatest books of all time locked in a safe, file cabinet, file folder, or computer. Why have writers got a backlog of brilliant material hidden away? Because writers write.

Understanding The Power of Association

I’d like to say something about “associating.” Sometimes we think of this word in terms of our personal associations, the building of our relationships; but there is another way of associating. It is associating with your mind. Learn from others; study those who are successful. If you have the opportunity to attend a seminar or a lecture, that is a wonderful way of associating because you can learn the principles and concepts that the speakers and attendees

I spent several years as the CEO of an organization that was going through tremendous change.

It's Not The Opportunity That Counts!

The real challenge is that we have all been incorrectly conditioned and trained to believe that the most important thing in business is the opportunity. nnHowever, if you try to make use of all the opportunities that show up, you lose all focus.

The Speed Of Focus In Business

I’ve worked with Toyota and helped with consulting and moving their factories.
