Purpose(s) in business and life

 This is something that has been near and dear to my heart for a long time and it needs to be said. What is your purpose in business? In other words, Why are you starting a business in the first place? Contrary to some of my previous posts, owning a business is not ALWAYS just about making money. Somewhere along the way the business must be self sustaining, which is rudimentary of any business venture all the way from a lemonade stand to wall street and beyond.
    Somehow, it also has to be fulfilling. a reason to be in business beyond the obvious. It has to not only make you happy, but it has to fit in to the flow of the community and have a purpose, otherwise there will be no customers for your business. Even as a business fails it becomes a lot like real life. People see their life flash before them and wonder what went wrong, or what went right in some cases. I've recently seen family members and others that seem to be hanging on for no reason at all other than just waiting for something on the other side of the curtain of life, but I think there is a bigger(much BIGGER) picture here. God(yes, i said it!) has a purpose for ALL things LIVING and non living, including a business if you allow him. Until that purpose is fulfilled, nothing happens. In business, if you are struggling, you can review financial records, personnel, associates, etc to figure out what went wrong. Sometime this is easy and sometimes not so much. 
    Without diving into the deep end of philosophy and religion, just realize that life imitates art and likewise. A business with a REAL purpose is as fulfilling as a life with real purpose. Be good to others and be good to your business, and if you have an ounce of curiosity in you then pray about it, it REALLY can't hurt.

Until next time...just stop take a deep breath and let it out and know YOU ARE here(wherever you are)  for a reason. Take stock of your life/business and find your purpose today, don't wait till it's too late. Just like a failing business, look for the cause of the failure, you might be surprised by the results.

Where are you?

 Another fine rant and rave or something brought to you by me! And now on with the show.... Do you get what some people refer to as an epiphany? or a moment of reflection? It brings you a moment of clarity and sharpness that seems impossible and as it disappears so fast you ask yourself "Was it really there?" We all get these moments and most deny them, but what IF they are moments that are given to us to be something more that a passing phase?  I think they are a message directly from what some call a higher power, but it's all the same. It's GOD trying to nudge you into a clearer line of thinking.  Ever moment and thought is tailored to each person uniquely and for that specific moment in time.  If you allow yourself to carry that moment into a complete thought, then guess what? An explanation will follow.  Has this ever happened to you? You don't necessarily have to be religious or what ever for this to happen and you are by absolutely NOT crazy in any way sh...

Happy Holidays

Hope everyone had a safe and fulfilling Christmas and will have an equally happy new year! I've noticed something interesting, a trend if you will. I call it the "age of the gurus". When the internet was still in it's infancy, and in someways still is, there were a lot of programmers, marketers, etc... all willing to take advantage of every little loophole they could find and exploit it to there financial advantage, some landed in the legal grey areas. Consequently the laws eventually adapted and changed as they tightened the screws on the hackers, schemers, and others who preyed on the users. All of that aside, I'm seeing less talk about the so called "gurus" and more about bonafide legal ways to make money. I'm not saying that these programs aren't still out there, because some are legit, a large part of them are repeats of the last 10 years, with a new face and same old crap. Sorting out the differences is what makes you a better marketer in t...
