Good Wednesday to you,
Sometimes it's hard to stay the course.  I believe if you keep doing what others don't do, that you'll see positive results.  The difficult part is the time it takes to sometimes see the results that you are looking for.
Here is the inspiration for the day. Have a great Wednesday

Good Tuesday to you,
After a 3 day weekend and a shortened work week in front of me, it's time to hunker down and make something hapen this week.
For the last two weeks I have been laying some groundwork in my business by sending out numerous letters and emails.  Today and this week, I am going to man the phones non-stop.
There are many who do not like to do this, no matter what business they are in, however, it is a vital and necessary step.
Here is the inspiration for the day. Have a great Tuesday

Good Friday to you,
Some days there are so many small things to do, you feel as if you haven't really accomplished anything.
Today has been one of those days for me.  I have to remember to focus on what's important and is really going to help my business, not things that will keep me busy.
Here is the inspiration for the day. Have a great Friday.

Good Wednesday to you,
Many times when you concentrate and focus on a course of action, it takes awhile for any results to be seen.
That is what's been happening to me over the past few weeks, however, I will continue to forge ahead and continue on the marketing efforts that I have been doing.  I have a feeling that by next week I will be getting some results.

Good Thursday to you,
Focus seems to be the word lately.  Especially with what's been happening on the East Coast.  First the earthquake (which is not that big a deal to those who live out west) to the present hurricane, Irene that will hit in the next few days.
Focus on your family and yourself, the rest will come.
That's what the inspiration is going to be this entire week.  Focus.

Good Wednesday to you,
It's amazing what I actually accomplished by focusing on what Stephen Covey says is First Things First.  For me, it was focusing on business and working on getting deals done.  I was able to accomplish quite a few things since I've put my mind to it.
It is very easy to get distracted with everything that is happening.  Focusing like a laser beam is helping me to move forward.
That's what the inspiration is going to be this entire week.  Focus.

Good Tuesday to you,
There are many days when you wake up and go through the daily grind of your day doing what you do.  That's what I've been doing the last few weeks.  The difference is that I have been sidetracked and doing many other things involving my buusiness except what matters - making deals.
Focus - that's what I've been missing lately.  I've been doing busy work and not focusing on bringin in the money right now.
That's what the inspiration is going to be this entire week.  Focus.

Good Friday to you,
 I've been working hard to increase business and have succeeded in making a few very large deals.  As it turns out during our due-diligence period, their have been "typos" on the amount of money that was in the county coffers.
These "typos", when found out, caused the deal to be non-existant.
Guess I'll have to keep trying and moving forward.  If I work the numbers, I'll get a definitive soon.

Good Monday to you,
A new week and a new month have started.  I've not given my inspiration in a couple of weeks and have missed writing it as much as I've missed the comments.  I'm now "back in the saddle" so to speak and am ready to start again.
Today is my birthday, so the quote is somewhat appropriate.

Good Tuesday to you,

I found out yesterday how important due diligence  can be and how, no matter how much pressure is put on you, you have to stick to your guns on how you operate your business.
The one time that I succumbed to  some pressure and didn't follow my normal routine for business, cost me $19,000.  Ouch!  Expensive lesson learned.

Good Saturday to you, 
I'm here in Indiana and had to go to court.  While here, I have some friends who live near Indianapolis that I haven't seen in awhile, so I took a little extra time to spend with them and their family.
Take time out and do a few things that make you feel good.

Good Friday to you,

Yesterday I had to go to court and defend myself and my company for our business and show that what we do and the way we do it is correct and just.  
The person that we had conducted business with accused us of fraud, when in fact they were involved in fraudulent activities and tried to do things that they shouldn't have done.  
The judge saw things our way and liked the way we ran our business and was very pleased that I came 1/2 way across the country to defend ourselves … (2 comments)

Good Sunday to you,

This weekend continues to be an adventure, while at my brother's house to celebrate his birthday, his daughter is 6 months younger than my youngest daughter.  
The young cousins are having a great time together, but did they have to start at 6:30 a.m.?!?

Good Thursday to you,

Over the last week I've been working on putting together a team of people so that I can grow my company.  The potential is unlimited for my industry, however, I have been limited because I haven't been willing to let go of the reigns and let others help me.  I have realized that I cannot do it on my own and need to have a team of others who share my vision.
