“How’s the pursuit of your personal goals coming along?”
Just the other day a friend asked me that exact question.
Now I should tell you that this wasn’t just anybody asking, it was the
guy who wrote what you might call the modern definitive guide to goal
setting and achievement the #1 bestselling 7 Rules of Achievement Tom Terwilliger.
That’s like being asked by a world renowned dentist “how’s your dental hygiene coming along.” Somehow you get the feeling (as they glair at your flapping gums) they already know the answer.
So what could I say except… it’s going freaking fantastic!… which I am very fortunate to say is true.
But the question it did get me thinking about you.
I think it would be safe for me to assume that your “goal” broadly speaking is “success”…however
you define it? I also think you’d agree that I have been sharing with
you as many critical tools, tactics, strategies and concepts as possible
for helping you achieve that objective.
But here’s the thing. I know from personal experience that your
ability to put those tools, tactics and strategies to work for you with
100% effectiveness depends in large part on how clear you are on your
overall objective or goal as well as the motivation behind it.
With that said here is what I wanted to share with you. In a recent
interview with Tom he shared with me that “getting what you want in life
is a whole lot more complicated than just identifying it… although it’s
a good start.”
And according to Tom there are actually 7 critical components to creating what he calls “Your Success Blueprint.”
We’ve edited the best of the interview into 5 short segments and I think you should check it out.

Even if you think you’re pretty darn clear on what you want to
achieve there’s a good chance just one missing piece in your Success
Blueprint could be the piece you need to put it all together.
It’s time to find out what that piece might be.

PS. By the way just for checking out the videos Tom and I have a
great gift for you that will help clarify whether it’s better to be
SMART or take ACTION when it comes to achieving your goals

Questions To Ask Yourself Before You Take The Plunge Into Starting A Business
by Gloria J. Little
So you truly believe that you are able to have a business. Why, because others have one? Or because you think you would be good at it. So did I until I failed for the first three times. Then, I got a clue. Business doesn’t just happen!!!
Before you make that move into what may be the worst idea you have ever had in life, take the following test for success. Be honest with you because it is you who will be made or broken in the process.
1. Are you organized or do you have to try to remember where your house keys are on a daily basis?
2. Do you have personal drive or do you have to be persuaded to change the channel on the TV?
3. Are you a leader or do you have trouble getting your pet to go outside?
4. How is your health? Do you get a cold when there is a 1-degree change in the weather?
5. Are you able to maintain for long hours? Or will your place of business close at noon, because you are so tired?
6. Are you mentally UP for the challenge?
7. Are you prepared for the risk involved?
8. Are you prepared to wait several months for your first profit?
9. What is your reason for wanting to start a business?
10. Is your business your passion?
11. Who are your customers outside of your immediate circle of influence?
12. What are the demographics of your customer base?
13. Do you have the expertise you need in the business you want to start?
14. How are you going to sell what you have at a price that will return an adequate profit for you?
15. Can you obtain the necessary funds you will need to start and keep the business running without getting into a cash flow problem?
16. Do you think and plan ahead?
17. Do you have a business plan?
18. Do you know the difference between marketing, promoting and advertising?
19. Who is advising you?
20. Start writing out your plan.

Podcasting For Fun & Business!

Podcasting for Fun and Business!
What is podcasting?
Podcasting is a great way to share your business with people from around the world. If you have something to say, then there are people who want to listen. Podcasts are sent to the subscribers by syndication, so whenever you release a new episode, your subscribers know about it. People love podcasts because it gives them something interesting to listen to when they are working, traveling, or just relaxing. They can listen to it whenever they want to.
Why would I podcast?
You might podcast to share ideas with others around the world. Millions of people use podcast aggregators to find messages they want to hear. You can use a podcast to build credibility with your potential clients. You could share a newsletter via podcast and grow your subscriber base even more! You could use a podcast as a product brochure. Video podcasts could be used as a way to share a product demo. You could do a podcast to update news in your industry as a service to your clients. You could do training for consultants who aren’t local with a podcast. You can seek podcast sponsors to pay you for advertising. Of course, you’ll need thousands of subscribers to get much of a commitment from advertising.
Here’s some basic rules about podcasting:
1. Decide what you want to do with your podcast. Keep it focused and keep on topic. Is it a sales tool, a newsletter, or a way to establish yourself as an expert? It’s ok to meander a bit in the podcast, but it should always reflect your original purpose.
2. Create valuable content. No one wants to listen to your commercial or your sales pitch. Most people aren’t interested in your politics, but you may find a small audience that will tune in. Most people want to learn something and be entertained.
3. Decide how much time you want to devote to it. Podcasting is a very time consuming activity. From the concept to publication, it can easily take 5 to 10 times as much time as the podcast is long for each episode. If you don’t have the time to commit to a regular schedule, listeners won’t take the time to listen.
4. Make sure you have enough bandwidth and server space to host your audio files. Podcasting takes a lot of space and can get expensive! Some low-cost options in the basics section.
5. Know that you are putting yourself out for criticism. People will write you nasty emails and let you know that your podcast isn’t what they want. Don’t take it personally, but consider every opinion and see if you can use it to make your podcast better.
6. It’s better if you can speak extemporaneously rather than reading a script. Listeners want to feel like they are conversing with you. Work from an outline rather than a script.
Podcast basics:
1. Set up a blog website. Podcasts are linked to blog pages so that aggregators can read them. You can use blog software on your own website or use some of the free blogging sites. Blogger.com, blogspot.com, and typepad.com are some free sites. Free sites won’t host your audio, because of space and bandwidth limits. You will need a hosting service such as podomatic.com or libsyn.com to host your audio. Free sites make it harder for search engines to find you. If you want traffic, set up your blog on your own website using WordPress (wordpress.org). If you use WordPress, you’ll need to add a plug-in called PodPress to allow you to link your podcasts to the blog (mightyseek.com/podpress).
2. Create the audio. You’ll need a way to record yourself. You can use an mp3 recorder, a telephone voicemail account, or your computer’s microphone. Just some way to create an mp3 file of your audio.
3. Edit your audio. Make it sound nice—take out the uhhh’s and ummm’s. You can record at 44kHz and a variable bit rate. A great free software program to use for both recording and editing is Audacity. You can get it free at audacity.sourceforge.net. To save it as an mp3 file, you will need to download and install an additional file called a LAME MP3 encoder. There are instructions on the Audacity website for this.
4. Upload your audio file to your hosting server, and write down it’s location. You can host your files for free through the Internet Archive (archive.org), but you will have to agree to their terms for copyright licensing.
5. Write a blog entry that includes your new podcast audio. How you link will depend on your blog provider. Each blog will be different, so check and see.
6. Burn a feed with feedburner.com
7. Publicize your podcast with aggregators like itunes.com, podcasts.yahoo.com, podcastalley.com, and others. Also, send a short 30 second or less promotional spot to podcasters with a similar audience.
8. Watch for listeners!
9. Prepare your next episode.
