The First Step to Real Success

Do you want to have success? Do you want to feel a successful person? Success is what many people are striving for. Success is deemed to be the ultimate goal to strive towards. That’s fine to a degree, because we all need to head towards something worthwhile. However, one of the problems I’ve noticed is that, although many people say they want success, they can’t define it clearly. Their definition of success is vague.

Systems for Success

Did you put on plays when you were a kid? I know I did, and when it was time to put on a play, we put some serious planning into its production. In fact, my brothers and I had a system of sorts for pulling it all together. We would fashion some theatre tickets, carefully choose costumes from mom and dad’s closet, and color a play program for our guests. I think the planning was as much fun as the performance. As I have enjoyed greater success in business, those same system-creating skills have become a valuable asset. Systems can take the drudgery out of work, making your business run more efficiently.

Delegate your Way to Greater Success

To keep up, you’ll put in more time, and wind up so busy working “in” your business that you’ll no longer have the necessary time you need to work “on” building your business. In order to move beyond start up phase to a more mature solid business, it’s crucial to break this vicious cycle. So what is an overworked, overstressed business owner to do? The key to creating more time is to delegate! In the first of a four part series, “Ramping up for Success” we’ll discuss how to delegate your way to greater success!

Success Circles: Teeming With Synergy

Success circles, mastermind groups, board of directors, or success teams are all names for a group of friends or colleagues getting together to assist each other in reaching their goals.

The idea of success teams is not new, although they are enjoying a resurgence. In his 1960 best-selling book, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill defined a mastermind group as a coordination of knowledge and effort, in a spirit of harmony, between two or more people for the attainment of a definite purpose.
