Someone once told me, and I don't know if he read this or was told by someone else the following statement:
Believe in yourself, then others will too!
As we head into 2009 full of economic worries, I think this is more important than ever. If you don't believe your going to not only do good business, but just be in business, how will anyone else believe it? When you walk into that meeting or meet some friends, are you talking up your business or talking it down? Are you complaining how rough things are and how 2009 is going to pose so many difficulties. Or are you boasting how 2009 is offering unique challenges and your excited by the challenge?
I've posted it before in my I Refuse blog and I mean it even more than ever. When I'm reminded of all the home inspectors in my area that have left the business, I don't say or think, I may be next. I shout out how this means more opportunities for me. When I hear of people reducing services to cut costs, I do just the opposite. Expand your services and grow! Don't offer less, offer MORE!
I know some find it hard to believe, but the power of self confidence can make all the differance in the world!
What are you doing to make 2009 the best year yet?
