Simple Logic - Not So Simple

It is often impossible to imagine being

able to handle all that is before us.

It may even be emotionally and physically crippling when overwhelmed by the sheer enormity of that which our mind imagines

we are faced with.

But apply very simple logic and break all the elements down to small bite size pieces

and most anything can be easily overcome. 

Our imagination can be as dangerous as it is awesome.

Take a breath,

make a written list,

organize it and refocus.

Back In Time

If I could go back in time and do it over again

I would love to inspire young people to learn how to live for the day with out losing sight of the fact that there is a future beyond just tomorrow or next week.

If you could go back in time and do it all over again - knowing what you know now... hmm, imagine the possibilities...

Ok. Wake up, stop dreaming for a second,  it's not possible to go back in time.

There are no "do overs" of the past, 

only "start overs" today!

And everyone of us has the opportunity to start over again as long as we're here and still breathing.

Take those dreams you where having a moment ago and make them come alive.

 Professional Experience page

 (Activities and Interests)

"Though most of my interests involve my passion for business..."

With all that there is to do in the world, isn’t it strange when someone shares that what excites them most is business. You might wonder how can that be?

When inquiring about their activities and interests, Most people would immediately think of their hobbies like -

Crafting
Fishing
Hunting
Shopping
Golfing
Gardening
Socializing

I find I can relate to each of those hobbies, but in a different way -

Crafting is -        brain storming new ideas, tweaking old ones, connecting different elements together to create a better one.

Fishing is  -        networking in the sea of relevant ponds of resources and people

Hunting is  -        finding another customer, group, business joint venture

Shopping is -     reviewing products/ideas I see in other windows that can be implemented to help benefit my store and my customers.

Golfing is  -        keeping your eye on the goal, taking a swing and making it happen, adjusting and repeating the steps to reach a goal.

Gardening is -   nurturing ideas, relationships and providing the nutrients (products, services and education) to help them grow

Socializing is -   presenting, educating, networking, problem solving                       (invisible selling).

Granted there is more to life than business building, and I do enjoy other interests. They give me ways to relax, refresh myself and to relate to others. I find pleasure in business because it is an exciting and energizing avenue for me to make a difference.

I enjoy the challenge of combining all the elements of marketing, sales, creativity, sound business principles and relationship building to grow a business with it’s own unique identity and character for success.

Conversational Etiquette

...and your IQ  

The language you use in conversation says a lot about you.  In fact the words you choose emulate a sort of character impression. As you speak you instantly create this impression in the minds of others. 

Choosing your words intelligently will create a higher perceived “Character IQ”. (C-IQ)

If the language you choose is loose, containing even occasional profanities, believe me you will lower your C- IQ. After all, any idiot can curse and spew profanities. You don’t even have to know how to spell to speak such language.   By the way – the only person you will impress will be yourself. 

Even if the other people choose to salt their conversation (possibly unconsciously from habit) don’t indulge with them, they won’t notice that you don’t, but darn sure they will if you do.

People who recognize this and choose their words wisely emulate a higher perceived intelligence, and are more likely to gain an unconscious as well as conscious respect from others.

This doesn’t mean you have to use every "big" word in the dictionary, actually quite to the contrary. Mostly - just think before you speak and you will add considerable value to your conversation simply by eliminating verbal distractions.

What’s your C-IQ?
