Woke up about 600 am this morning wanting to watch TV for a few (this is a very RARE desire for me). So, I turn on a TedTALKS- Rad Invention Series. Just watching people create and just have the courage to try has me excited and motived. Find you motivation in everything you do. Then, continue to feed that motivation in everyday life. #lifewater #quantomlevitation #tedtalks #create #createwithnofear #motivation #business #entrepreneur #creators #opensource #entrepreneurship #nofear #instagood #igers #instagood

Top 3 Books to Read Before Starting your Business

Rich Dad Poor Dad- Robert T. Kiyosaki A lot of people have heard of this book. It's actually one of the first books I read when starting my entrepreneurial journey. Rob tells the story of growing up with one rich dad and one poor dad (hence the name, huh?). He gives us the different values he learned from each and how it played a role in his life as a entrepreneur and person. Pick it up HERE. The Richest Man in Babylon- George S. Clason This is another fictional book with a lot of great gems of informations in it. It's filled with practical thoughts and approaches to money. It talks about how one of the poorest men in Babylon became the Riches. Definitely worth reading! Get it HERE. The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho This book has sold millions. It was introduced to me by my sister years ago. It sat in my house a few years collecting dust. Then, one weekend it flashed across the TV screen and I remembered that I had it tucked away some where. I spent the rest of the day reading the journey of Santiago and taking this fictional character's experience and applying it to my own. After reading this book it was like my eyes were opened to what I've been through, and where I'm prepared to go. Then, I read it again after sharing it with a colleague and got revitalized all over again. I even got some info I missed the first time, or maybe I had to go through things to truly understand. This is hands down one of my favorite books. You can get a copy HERE.

Numbers Do Lie!

So, through my journey as a entrepreneur, consultant, and most recently a mentor I’ve truly understood the meaning of quality over quantity. I had this notion that I had to get out every week, go to conferences, networking events, etc. to get clients. I had a number in my head that I had to meet to feel a sense of accomplishment during the event. So, the end result was I would get the numbers, but would maybe convert one of those into an actual client. Eventually I was burnt out, and had a revelation.Where I was going wrong was..

with the focus. While I was working the room and  I was loosing genuine opportunities to connect with like-minded business owners and other entrepreneurs. Once I was changed my approach, my focus, my business doubled. I connected with business owners that had an instant need for my services and new after providing them with a great final product they referred their colleagues and other people they connected with at events. Til’ this day I’m still getting referrals from referrals from clients of referrals.

If you are trying to build a viable business it’s all about the quality of connections you make with people. This discovery was so epic for me that once I grew my clientele I decided to create my own networking group that was comprised of some of my top clients. It’s geared towards an even more concentrated group of high quality professionals known as “The Fearless”. I recognized the clients that had similar interest, challenges, and could benefit from connecting with each other and decided to offer this opportunity to a select few. Their profession is Entrepreneur and they’re willing to get it by all means. And with that approach we have already been able to cultivate partnerships and invoke change. It’s been a great lesson learned and a heck of an experience.

Just the Basics...

Creativity is key to standing our amongst your competition. A lot of the clients I work with struggle with the creative aspect of their business. Thats when they call me and my team. What I share with them is that I' always tweeking my designs for my business from something basic. You know, just the foundation. Then the creation starts from adding and subtracting until I get something I feel comfortable with releasing to world. So, as I continue to evolve my personal brand and business I continue to create useful tools, forms, and guides that start out basic. This saves me time when applying to different aspects of my business. 

Today I'll share my form from The Fearless Meet & Greet Event I recently had. Use this as your base. Change, tweet, customize so it works for you and your company.
