Monday Morning MEM0 14022022– This Week’s Strategy – How can I do that?

How can I do that?

How can I get and keep clients or close friends or what would it take to get me what I want?

Well, you certainly want to get and keep clients and close friends.

It is a given we were not born into a world by ourselves, and we are all connected.

Some people have problems getting and keeping clients, close friends or even maintaining a good relationship.  Instead of focusing on how they can do that, they focus on what is not good about them – I am not good with customers, I am not good at making friends, people don’t like me, that is not my personality. Even where God is concerned, they are like: I did not tell Jesus to die for me.

When a problem arises whether it is getting clients, maintaining your relationships the first question to ask is: How can I do that?  When you do this the mind starts exploring options that you can use.  So, in your business ask: how can get more clients and start brainstorming. In your relationships ask: how can I maintain my relationships or get into a relationship. Or even what would it take to get me the clients that I need or the relationships that is right for me.

Nothing comes without effort so today and every day you get the opportunity to ask yourself how to live like you never lived before and love like you never love before. What it would take to get me there?

Monday Morning MEM0 07022022– This Week’s Strategy – You said I would get this today! What happened?

I am sure throughout your life you may have heard this a couple of times: You said I would get this today! What happened? We break commitments we make every day.

We promise customers to get back to them and we don’t for a multitude of reasons, we tell our boss we will get the business or we will review the file, but that never happens and we make promises to our loved ones and these are never fulfilled.

Some people don’t commit because they know that they may not deliver, they say – “I am not committing, but when I get the chance or the time I will do it’. Some people do not even want to get married because they do not want to commit. They want to be able to walk out whenever they want.

If you want to succeed in life you have to commit to something and you have to keep those commitments. When you do not keep those commitments you live your life with a lot of unfinished business.

People who are committed are those who get the work done, if they say I am going to do this you know it would be done. Those who are not committed just keep taking their time prodding along and nothing much is happening.

Think about it: What are you committed to doing in your business, your job or your personal life? How have you been keeping your commitments? As they say – behavior never lies. Your commitment to whatever you decide shows up in your performance, how you operate your business, your performance in your job and the healthiness of your family and your personal life.

Don’t leave a string of unfinished business or issues behind you, commit to doing better, making life better for you and for all the people you interact with. After all you only pass this way once so leave a positive mark.

Have a great and productive week!

Monday Morning MEM0 31012022– This Week’s Strategy – Are you still trying to figure things out?

Stop trying to figure things out.

A lot of wasted time and energy is being spent on figuring things out.  If you have a business there are many things that happen, like the client who changed his mind about purchasing from you or using your service and does not reveal the reasons for this, or even the supplier who has been with you for a while and now stops showing up and you can’t get a hold of him. On leaving the office you may meet someone, and they tell you something and all you do is try to figure out what they meant. 

If you are working for someone there are also many things that happen on the job that leave you trying to figure out what is going on. Simple things like your boss or co-worker may pass and did not say good morning, or you went to your manager about an issue and he is not very responsive.

At home your spouse may respond to you and say ‘whatever’, or do something that is out of their character or even your children or siblings and all you do is try hard to figure out what’s going.

Stop wasting time and energy on figuring things out. Things happen for a reason, people come and go in your life for a reason. Sometimes when you look back at the situations you are able to recognize why this and that happened.

When you  stop trying to figure things out and get down to trusting God that the situation would work out, and get the work you must do done, then you would be more productive with less stress. 

February starts tomorrow, so let’s get to work!

Monday Morning MEM0 24012022– This Week’s Strategy – You can’t compete by being better.

You really can’t compete by being better, that is not good enough.

Just one week to go and January 2022 is finished. You may either have achieved your goal or would do so by the end of the month, which is excellent, or you are far from achieving it. 

Achieving any goal requires some type of competition. We are always competing for something.   If you have a business, you are competing against someone else in your field or even if you are working for someone you are still competing against somebody in the office.  Would you believe at home you are competing for your spouse’s time?

The spirit of competition is in all areas. You want your business to do better, you want to excel in everything that you do and when this does not happen you are of the view that you must do better.

Doing better is not an option, what you must do is do things differently. You must move from the old way and find new ways to do things differently. The only way to get to where you want to be, to beat the competition, to be better than the other Representative in the office, to be a better husband, wife, manager etc. is to explore ways to do things differently. 

What can you do different in your business, the office, at home or in your relationships? Sometimes the ideas are there but you need someone to talk it over with.  If this is you contact us: joseylifeline@gmail.com or fb: https://www.facebook.com/JOIPF-Consulting-Services

When you do not deal with your challenges or ignore them you are closing the doors to improvement and blessings in your business and your personal life. I speak of personal life here since there is no business without personal life.

Monday Morning MEM0 03011202238– This Week’s Strategy STOP SECOND GUESSING YOURSELF

 

So many of us second guess ourselves. I do, and sometimes I tell God I need help with my stubbornness as I do not listen. 

 

Whether you like it or not 2022 has  arrived and started.

 

 

By now you have either started to plan your year or is still contemplating on what to do. 
Whether you have your own business, working for someone else by helping them achieve their dreams or just trying to figure things out you have to go bold and have courage to achieve your goals or your dream. The road is wide open waiting for you.

To go bold with courage means you have to stop second guessing yourself.  
So you did your investigations this is what you want to do. Your actions are for the good of yourself and everyone so what’s keeping you back. 

 

Let’s say you are playing a game – pool, cricket, tennis, golf etc., when you start second guessing yourself the ball just goes everywhere else but where it supposed to go. 

This year you need to stop second guessing yourself and go bold, you have the courage to achieve whatever you put your mind to. You could turn around that business, be the best you can be in your job, put some spark into your love life, bring peace and unity to your family life. 

Here’s to a bold and courageous you!

Monday Morning MEM0 20122138– This Week’s Strategy – Stop complaining and be the best at what you do.

Stop complaining and be the best at what you do.

For a business, Christmas season can be a challenge. You have to make sure you have an adequate supply of your products so that you do not run out. If you import you would have had to take into consideration all the delays and of course for some countries, access to foreign exchange. If you manufacture your own products and you have kids at home that is a balancing act with a totally different story.

In this COVID era you have to deal with all the issues concerning vaccination of yourself, your family, your workers and also issues on who you deal with it whether they are vaccinated or not.

So what do you do? There are so many things to complain about. The good thing is you know what you are good at. The things you are not good at consider delegating, or outsourcing. If you continue on the road that you are traveling with all the challenges on your back, Christmas will not be Christmas as you would be too tired to enjoy the season. So, stop complaining and be the best at what you do. Or as is normally said ‘Let go and let God’. I mean really let go and trust him to deal with it for you.

Here’s to a bumper Christmas!! Enjoy, Be safe. Stop complaining and be the best version of you.

Monday Morning MEM0 06122136 – This Week’s Strategy WORST MISTAKE

This week’s strategy : The worst mistake you can make

The worst mistake you can make is not looking at an issue from all sides. It is as if you have on blinders, so you can just see straight ahead.

When an issue arises one of the worst mistakes is spending a lot of time to figure out what happened but not much time is spent on resolving the issue. if you do not review it from end to end, you may miss out some important details.

In your business it is not just a sale, but what happens at the beginning, and end of the sale. You have to review what happening in the middle. What are you selling? How are you selling it? Where are you selling it? How much are you paying to sell it? How are you ensuring that you have repeat business.

Let’s start paying attention to the details of your business especially mistakes when posting online. Where are you posting your stuff? How often are you posting? Are they getting hits and are people responding to your offer? Is there anything else you can do to make your offer more attractive?

This year end let the money roll in.
