READ YOUR COFFEE CUP AND GET INSPIRED.


Grande Decaf to go please. Usually I drink while walking on the sidewalk or while driving on the road but this time I was still drinking it when I got home. Sitting by my computer, waiting for something to come up, I noticed 'The Way I See It #283' written on my cup.


That probably means I missed the first 282 messages that Starbucks put's on their take-out cups to inspire their customers. This is great stuff, quote:


'The most important thing in life is to stop saying "I wish" and start saying "I will." Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.' -- David Copperfield, magician.


Who ever said coffee isn't good for you..


Well I think treating all possibilities as probabilities will make you very successful, especially due to the law of attraction where what you think about becomes reality. Remember though, it doesn't work quite like that.
You actually have to do something towards you dream.
While you are considering all the probabilities before you, it is important to think about a plan of attack. How will these probabilities come about if you don't create some action? They won't just happen by magic. Well maybe they do for David Copperfield but the rest of us have to help things happen.

In the case of #283 the first action was to buy a coffee at Starbucks. I'll be sure to read my cup from now on. I like all the inspiration I can get.
10 action plan items to consider.
10 ways to act on probabilities to create an favourable end result.
NO, NO, NO. NOT ANOTHER LIST OF 10 WAYS TO DO SOMETHING!!!!
By now you should be able to do it yourself. You've read enough, seen enough so let's get going.
Make up your own list of 10 things, then follow your own list. Let it be your guide to your dream.
Don't just sit there, do something or like they say down at Nike 'just do it'.

10 GREAT IDEAS FOR YOU AND/OR YOUR BUSINESS


Since April this year, I've passed on some tips and ideas that would help some of you with your businesses.


Most of these tips are things I've done or learned along the way.


I started a 'service' business where I performed a service and sold a product. I bought an engraving machine and started a trophies and engraving business in my garage, built it up

to a full time business with 3 employees and then sold it off 9 years later for a profit.


Everything went with the business so when I wanted to start my present business, Winning Fairways Inc. Promotional Products, I had to litterally start over. New suppliers, New Clients, New Products and a new way of selling.


I've looked back over my blogs and listed out the following,


10 Great Topics to help you with your business.


-The Ideal Customers

-The Theory of Recognition

-Timing, Timing, Timing

-The Next Great Idea

-Inspired

-Need to Succeed

-Networking

-Ideaspotting

-How to differentiate yourself

-It Takes a Community to Build a Business


I keep thinking that there has to be more to it
but I think if you keep doing the right things,
your business will grow.


Focus on your business. Don't get strung out with
more new ideas than you can handle with ease.
Have fun, network, get other people to help you
while you are helping them. Build your community.
call me anytime for promotional products or just to ask direction.
