Practice What You Preach!!!

Telling someone, "I don't own a car", and you live in the Los Angeles area, will yield a perplexed expression from your audience. How is this possible? Why would you NOT want to own a personal car? In 2011, I will find out.

Hmm....

So much is going on today that I can't come up with an appropriate title for this post. It's:

- World Aids Day
- 55th Anniversary of Rosa Parks refusing her seat
- the day after massive teacher protests (in LA) picketing and walking out of classrooms
- the day unemployment ends for millions of Americans nationwide

Reflections...

As the end of 2010 draws near, we sit back and gauge where we have been and what direction are we headed to in the upcoming year?

Set goals that are meaningful and can enhance your personal growth. Look to increase your level of patience you have in the projects you have taken on; personal relationships included, and work on being a better listener. Once you are able to find balance between the two, will you beginh to properly track your growth.

Remember, good things come to those who wait!

Consulting- Building Your Own Small Business

A very rewarding career choice, is becoming a "Consultant" which means you get compensated for giving your expertise opinion on a business related matter, based on your experience in said field. Consulting businesses are thriving and becoming a large part of the work force. However my mantra is, "the game is to be SOLD, not TOLD"

National Entrepreneur Day: Money Doesn't Sleep!!

After a long work week, the weekend can't seem to get here fast enough! Relax, relate, release comes to mind, as I ponder what to get into, besides work?!

Being an entrepreneur means work doesn't end with the weekend, on the contrary, this is where the real work begins. Organizing thoughts and documents from the work week meetings you attended. Checking your agenda to plan out the next work week. Coming up with fresh and innovative ways to promote and market your business...in short, work never ends!!

True, it seems ideal to work your own hours, make your schedule and not answer to anyone, but you definitely work harder to provide for you and your loved ones. Many hours are spent on the business and ensuring it's survival and becoming sustainable. I can't express how rewarding it is to have complete strangers, support your vision by purchasing or using the product/service you are offering.

Today we say thank you to the many entrepreneurs who keeps going, even when the going gets tough!
