Is the Bear about to Get You?! with Dave Fuller

The Bear

In this episode, the Bear story is real. Yes, Dave and his friends faced a bear. Obviously he survived, but it could have turned out differently. You and I as business owners also face a bear of a different kind, but just as potentially deadly. Can you guess what it is?

Stress

You got it. The bear we face is stress. This bear almost took me out a few years ago. It can sneak up on you just like a bear in the woods. Seemingly it can come out of left field. It is a silent killer as it affects each of us differently. Some of us cope with different kind of dependencies that don't suit us well. Some of us just buckle down and work harder (I'm raising my hand), which is exactly the opposite of what we should do. 

Anti-Stress

There are many things we can do to combat stress. The best is rest. Yes sleep, rest and recovery are critical to our health. "But wait! We have all this work to do." Yep, that's exactly what I said, until my body forced me to shut down. Listen to me...

The Cornerstones of Simplicity

Simplicity is sometimes the elusive secret sauce we are yearning for in our business and life. With simplicity comes freedom of mind and energy. With simplicity comes success. 

Cornerstones of Simplicity

  • Discipline
  • Vision
  • Mission
  • Values

Discipline - the ability to stay focused on what must be done.

Vision - where you are headed. Make it clear and concise.

Mission - the purpose for which the business exists.

Values - the expectation of behaviors and the business personality.

Work on keeping your business and life as simple as possible. Say no to the opportunities that come your way, even if they are good, if they don't align with your vision, mission and values. Stay the course and focused and success is yours. 

Enjoy the Journey!

Love Work. Love Life.

You are Spring Cleaning aren't You?

Clearing the Mind of Distractions or what I call 'Spring Cleaning'

The mind is a terrible thing to waste and yet we do so everyday. When we think inappropriate thoughts for achieving success, we are wasting time and more important our energy. We cannot afford to waste our energy on thoughts that do not take us to where our vision lies. We have a mission and we need all our energy to make that happen.

Common Anti-success Thoughts

1. I need to do it myself.

2. I cannot find the right people. 

3. I am not good enough.

4. I want to do more. 

There isn't enough space to list all the errant thoughts we have. Our minds can be harnessed to be our strength or our weakness. We talked before how our thoughts become our emotions which become our actions and all that adds up to our results. We must spring clean our minds from the depleting thoughts. 

Ways to Implant Positive Thoughts

  • Affirmations
  • Mastermind
  • Coaching
  • Reading
  • Podcasts
  • Habits

You CAN Control Your Results... Can't You?

Results

Can you really control your results? Barring outside influences such as the economy, political winds and the like; you can control the results you seek if you control your actions. As we have heard many times, control what you can and let the rest go.

Actions

You are responsible for and accountable to the actions you take. The sum of your actions are why you are getting the results you are getting today. Where you are, who your with, your income, your daily activities, everything is coming to you based on your actions. If you don't like the results you are experiencing you must change your actions. Actions are driven by our feelings and emotions.

Emotions

Did you know your emotions are ultimately what drives your actions? Sales people know this. That is why great sales people appeal to your emotions versus your logic to get you to take "action". You have the ultimate control of your emotions. I know you may disagree, let me explain. 

We have all said things like "they...

Mindset, Clarity and Action with Jen McFarland

Mindset

We have all heard and agreed to the importance of mindset. So, why is it that we still suffer from mindset issues? Because we constantly have to intentionally be working on our mindset. We need to gain clarity around the way we are thinking and making decisions.

Clarity

Sometimes the best place to start for gaining clarity is within ourselves. In this episode Jen McFarland outlines three types of leaders she often works with inside of companies. What kind of leader are you?

  1. Do it my way leader.
  2. Research leader.
  3. Last minute leader.

Knowing more about yourself is a great step in the right direction. We discussed a key question for determining the root cause for your fear. "What is the worst thing that can happen?" is a great way to start uncovering where the true fear lies. Owning this fear and taking action anyway, is moving the power from the fear back to you. 

Taking Action

Learning to fail is essential. You are going to fail. As a matter of fact, you should fail...
