During the past several weeks (actually months) I have been doing a great deal of soul searching and have been attempting to parse out what the difference has been between the times of feast and famine in my business. I believe I have come up with something that may be beneficial to those of us either experiencing a similar challenge or are interested in reducing the duration of the famine.

Looking back to the time in my business when I was really rolling, particularly my first two years as a speaker at FPD. Here are my top 4 Keys that allowed me to break records and bust loose.

1) Attitude:�� Simply put, from the beginning I believed that I was the best. I would be willing to wager one of the reasons Alan Mong kicks so much tail is because he has a very healthy belief in his skills. I Read More...

In your living room, do you need to move over books, toys, magazines and misc stuff just to find a place to set your drink on the coffee table?

�Activity conquers cold, but stillness conquers heat.� ~ Lao Tzu

It�s a bias of our culture that stillness is regarded as lazy, as being stuck in inaction, as a negative.

It�s not. It�s an action, and a powerful one.

What�s more, it can change your day, and in doing so change your life.

You�re in the middle of a frazzled day, swamped by work and meetings and emails and interruptions, or hassled by kids and phone calls Read More...

At Freedom Personal Development, we are all about attitude. I have taught countless workshops and given keynote speeches across the country on this topic and wanted to share one of the most important attitude management tools you have.

I always start a class or speech with an informal survey of the audience about whether their attitude is a talent or a skill. A talent being something that you are either born with or not; you have it or your do not. And a skill is something that you will learn through conscious efforts.

People tend to argue with and say that their attitude is a talent, and not a skill. But, then I ask them this question, �Are there things you can proactively and consciously do Read More...
