You've surely heard it before - keep your ego in check. You don't want to be the overbearing boss. And there's merit to that notion. Who hasn't dealt with the overachieving colleague who is constantly pushing their way as the only way? It's not a lot of fun and can lead to all too much friction. But as in so many things, moderation here is the key. Sure, too much...
Recently, I talked about the importance of following up or, failing that, of letting it go and not feeling guilty. But that does leave a pretty important question unanswered: with whom, exactly, are you supposed to follow up? Me, of course! Well, ok, not just me. When you're in business for yourself, you're always on the prowl (so to speak) for new networking opportunities, and that means you'll want to...

It's a fact of life that there's always more work to be done. It wouldn't be hard to spend all your waking hours working on your business, and in fact many entrepreneurs do just that - often experiencing serious burnout when they push it too far. It feels good to be hard at work, and entrepreneurs often seem to wear their sleepless nights like badges of honour as a signal...

Working together with a partner or a team can have great benefits for any business: more hands available to get work done, more eyes open for opportunities and pitfalls, and more brains pitching ideas and coming up with solutions. Building a strong team and leading new team members to greater success is also personally rewarding for all involved. However, it also comes with its own set of unique difficulties. Personalities...

Experience, as they say, is what you get immediately after you need it. No doubt you've experienced this unfortunate truth many times in your life; I certainly have. That's the beauty of training. It allows us to learn from the mistakes of others, rather than having to make our own (not that any teenager in the world is going to believe that). Fortunately for us both, we live in a...

The heart of our economy is competition. By competing with one another, businesses are forced to find greater efficiencies and deliver results that better match what the market demands. This is the great strength of capitalism, and the results speak for themselves. However, it is also a weakness. Competition can become so great that businesses (and people) can begin to take it to heart. It doesn’t take long before some...

Recently, I wrote about how important results are. I'd like to expand on that thought a little further, because it's incredibly important to success - in life, and in business. We live in a society made up of billions of people interacting all the time. With so much going on, it can be difficult to track back responsibility for successes and failures. When things go wrong, people naturally make excuses...

In business, it's good to look the part. In fact, many larger businesses have a dress code - not just the traditional suit and tie that you'll find in an office, but construction workers have a dress code of Mir auch viagra kaufen in der schweiz jeder http://druckerprofi.com/kirsa/erfahrungsberichte-cialis-nach-prostatektomie mit viagra wie wirkt sie bestimmte.

There are a lot of choices available to today's entrepreneur. In fact, in many situations, the available choices can be so numerous as to be overwhelming. It's not uncommon to be stressed about making the best choices and wind up making a terrible choice. So how do you avoid that? After all, you do still want to make the best choice possible. The answer, it turns out, is to recognize...
