Actual for You - Assessing Your Progress
Some people might say why do i need to learn all about developing my non financial resource, if i have money and all the material things i need and want then surely there is nothing else to learn. Well, with all intent and purposes you could be described as a success. That might be true to a point but you miss the important message and potential long lastin

If your business is like many other traditional cleaning companies, you started by cleaning an office, apartment building, retail store or other commercial building. Adding additional clients may have included more office buildings, medical clinics and perhaps even expanding into manufacturing facilities. But have you stopped to think about expanding into r
You see, every time you break a self-promise, your self-trust is weakened. Every time you give up on your commitments your self-confidence takes a hit. And every time you look back on broken resolutions, your self-assessment hurts, not helps, your performance future.
By contrast, I am a huge fan of goals or dreams or aspirations or targeted focus. Call it what you like. Mine come in a variety of forms, anything from a life-to-do-list to aspirational dreams. But their achievement hinges on the same element - incremental action. I learned in twenty years of management the power behind small steps.
One baby step, then another and another eventually leads to achievement. Most of us are unlikely to hit home-run equivalents with our work or life goals. But by incrementally nibbling at them, we can accomplish most anything, actualizing life dreams and winning at working. Like the Chinese proverb reminds us, "The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones."

People will do something—including changing their behavior—only if it can be demonstrated that doing so is in their own best interests as defined by their own values.All of us delude ourselves about our achievements, status, and contributions. We overestimate our contribution, and take credit for successes that belong to others. We have an elevated o

Medical billing agencies take a lot of things for granted. They purchase a piece of DME software in order to do their daily billing and they expect everything to run perfectly. Well, in the real world, it isn't quite that simple. There is a lot of work that goes into putting out a piece of medical billing software. While we're not going to attempt to di

Have you had it? Are you tired of the same interactions that are increasingly stressful and less productive?

Remember, as a child lying in bed and listening to stories. Remember how engaged you were. Remember how you never got bored of them and always wanted to learn more.Well, there's a good reason why... and here's how what you learnt as a young child could help you attract, and keep more customers...Metaphors and stories have proven to be a powerf
So, instead of New Years resolutions, I suggest you try an alternative this year. First, assess your progress. Second, align your direction.
Start by writing down your accomplishments for the last twelve months, asking yourself, what's different today from a year ago. These don't have to be big or work-only achievements, but note incremental progress in any part of your life. If I can do more sit-ups this year than last, that goes on my list. If I've read thirty books, I put that down. If I have a better relationship with a client, it's there.
Now, take a few minutes to savor your list, breathing in the powerful feeling of personal progress. It's amazing how good it feels to see what you're accomplished. Whenever I observe a tangible list of what I've achieved in just twelve months, it fuels my energy for what I can do in the next twelve. And that leads me to the second part of the experience: seeing where I'm headed. Like a compass, the list helps me align my focus and build incremental goals in the direction I want to be traveling.
