Most blame their disorganization on their lack of time, but the truth is, your lack of time is the result of your disorganization!

Last week we talked about wanting to own your own business, and now this week I want to follow up with a business picture I don’t find being addressed. One of the things I hear from so many owners of small to medium-sized businesses is, “There are just so many hats I have to wear.” Too many find their self being “everything.” Their exhaustion comes from being so busy working “in” their business, there is no time to work “on” their business. This one truth is a leading cause of business failure. Join me this Thursday as we talk about the difference between being the “Business Owner” and the “Business Leader.” The difference between these two is the difference between business success and business disaster. If you are committed to building a successful business, don’t miss this show.

Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent on the concept of Customer Service, yet it’s still an issue many companies have to deal with. What they fail to understand is Customer Service is merely a concept! That means it’s an idea that is taught, but not always bought into by those who are there to deliver it to the Customer. Join me this Thursday as we talk about “When You Care, They Know!” For years I have said, “There is a missing piece to the puzzle in all the Customer Service training we do. If you want Customer Satisfaction, you have to add the missing piece – Customer Appreciation!” We’re going to explore creating an environment where every moment of touch creates the feeling of being appreciated. This is one of those shows that everyone needs to listen to. The #1 thing a human life wants to know is they matter!

CHANGE! It’s one of those words most have a love/hate relationship with. It’s a part of life, but not a part most want to face.

Do you ever feel stressed? You can feel the mental and emotional tension taking a physical toll on you. Stress is an everyday part of life, but it doesn’t have to control your life.

Have you ever felt like you were living on a rollercoaster? It seems you can't get off of it. The result of this is a loss of stamina, a weakening of commitment, and a gathering of negative emotions. The effect of all of this is one losing their desire to continue to try. Over a period of time THEY QUIT, but many continue to hang around.

Have you ever had a time when you were frustrated with someone because they said they were going to do something and then they didn’t do it? It’s amazing how much of life’s confusion, frustration, disappointment and anger is the result of the contradiction between what one says and what they actually do! The result of this constant contradiction will cause one to lose respect, trust and belief in a person. From listening to people through the counseling I once did, the mentoring I do now and the lack of integrity found in some people, I created my teaching foundation that is a part of everything I do. It is three little words I have become known for – BEHAVIOR NEVER LIES! In this weeks show we are going to explore these three words. We’re going to discuss why the contradiction and I am going to share with you an 8-Step Process to balance words and behavior. You are going to view Behavior like you have never looked at it before.

Your life is yours to design! Where you are, what you are doing is all about the choices you have made and are making.

One thing is true about life – it is never a straight line! There are always going to be curves, hills, potholes and a host of unpredictable and uncontrollable events to challenge you. When you look at the struggles most people’s lives go through, you will find the majority of them are tied to the unpredictable and uncontrollable aspects of life. Our show this week is going to examine how to get back up when life pulls the rug out from under you. I am going to be the example of how to “Bounce Back.” When I was 16 my adoptive parents gave me a suitcase and told me it had been nice knowing me. Since that experience, I have been on my own. I could have chosen to lie in the corner and blame life for what happened to me, but I didn’t! I took what had happened and turned it into a life of adventure, growth and success. Together, we are going to learn how to turn those moments of emotional depletion and disappointment into moments of spiritual uplifting.

FEAR! It’s more than a word; it’s the #1 emotion that you deal with. But you have to understand fear has two sides – negative and positive. The side of fear you deal with controls what emotions are attached. When negative fear is in control, you experience an increase in your doubt, your worry and your uncertainty. This results in an increase in your stress and it shuts down your imaginations ability to show you the pathway to move your life forward. In our show this week we are going to explore the power negative fear has in your life, examine the seven fears you will struggle with from the day you are born until the day you die, and learn the 5-step process to keep negative fear from taking control of your life. You will learn how to remain on the positive side of fear.

Marriage at its easiest is still challenging. During my days as a counselor, most of what I did was marriage counseling. I found it amazing that the love that brought two people together can, over a period of time, become disconnect for many couples. Many developed a routine of chatting, but not really communicating. The result of this became the process of storing feelings, not addressing and resolving them. The top two strengthening aspects of any relationship are Communication and Continuing to Date. Join me this Thursday, February 12th, as we talk about “It Takes More Than Chatter.” We’re going to explore how pre-marriage communication can turn into the sounds of silence, take a humorous look at the groups of opposites that seem to always get married and learn a process to keep the communication flowing. A terrible thing happens when communication stops – the relationship starts the death process!

Your life is your choice! Yes, you will be handed situations and events that challenge you, but you have the power to face them, handle them and allow them to move your life forward. Handling life’s challenges demands a strong foundation of personal trust, self-belief and a discipline that allows you to continue to move forward. Our show this week is “The Soul Of A Champion!” We are going to view the lives of those few people who have chosen to not settle, who turn their talents into skills and rise above where most people stop. How important is your growth to you? Is it something you spend a lot of energy talking about? Is it something you desire, but are not sure how to achieve? Is it something you really want to obtain? Join me as we examine the behaviors of those who have risen to the heights of personal freedom and success.
