Remember back when you were a kid?

If you had an idea, you tried it.  If it didn’t work you tried something else until you exhausted all your ideas.  Then you tried again the next day!

The reason I bring this up is I was thinking the other day about what it takes to be an entrepreneur.

Remember the lemonade stands?

Lemonade 25 cents!

Look Familiar?

My lemonade story:

I remember typing up little business cards when I was about 12 and handing them out in the neighborhood to offer window washing service.  My girlfriend Ann and I wanted to go to the State Fair.

By the way, typing up those little business cards meant using a kid’s typewriter.  It had one ball in the center that had all the letters on it and you had to dial it to the right letter.  One letter at a time!  It took days to create enough cards to get started.

But we were bound and determined to earn enough money to go have a good time at the Fair.  We worked for 2 months that summer washing a lot of windows.  We finally had enough money earned to have a wonderful time at the Fair.

We had an idea, followed our plan, worked hard and then enjoyed our very first time of paying our own way in life!

As children we seem to have the ability to look at the world differently than when we are adults.  Children are very creative and if left alone will come up with all kinds of wild ideas.

Then comes all the training to become an adult…

You must fit in!
You must stand still!
You must not speak out!
You must…etc  (I could go on for a long time)

All of this training teaches us to be little robots that fit into the “normal” category and if by chance you don’t fit into the “plan” you are weird.

We were all taught to go to college, get a job and work for the next 40 years so you can retire and enjoy life.  Well, life just passed you by!

After spending almost 30 years in the corporate world I finally got my “kid” back!  I decided not to spend any more time making money for someone else and taking any more time away from my family.

I took an idea I had about working from home and tried it.  I took a chance and left my job (a good paying job at that).  Then I failed making my first business work.  I tried to be just like everyone else online.  That just does not work!  There is only one me and I needed to celebrate that, just like any kid.

I started to promote me (‘cause there is only one!) and started to make connections with people.  What fun!  I am so glad I got my “kid” back and decided to be an entrepreneur!

Go get your “kid” back and follow your passions in life.  Only you can make that decision.  Only you can make the transformation to get your “kid” back.

Your Life = Your Choice.  Period.

Please share your “kid” story in the comments!

Want To Be Great Leader In Your Business?

It is fairly an easy job to become a good leader if you have some of the basic skills of leadership. I think all of us are taught some of those leadership skills as we went through school. The challenge is to become a great leader. One famous author said that a good leader motivates others to believe in the leader; where as a great leader influences others to believe in themselves. Basically that is the basic difference between a good and a great leader. The great leaders will bring out the best in you and help you to perform according to your potential. There are some key points that might help you to become a great leader in your business.

Develop specific and definite guidelines for your team
Specifying a direction for the business is a key element to making sure there is no confusion on where you and your business are headed. As a leader you must specify a direction for your teammates so they will have a very clear and specific idea about their duties and responsibilities. It will remove all the confusion and help them to execute the plans to perfection. On the other hand, if the direction is descriptive and lengthy your team will get confused and they will struggle to implement your idea. That will have a very negative direction for their business and their respect for you as a leader. Explain the direction in detailed step by step instructions and this will remove every bit of confusion from their mind. Always leave opportunity to ask questions as everyone learns at a different pace.

Ensure the similarities between your action and visions
You should keep one thing in mind when you design your actions and that is that your actions should match your ultimate visions and philosophical stand. If there is dissimilarity between action and vision your customers and business partners might loose respect for you and your authority will be in question. You must explain the ultimate objective of your plan to your business associates. On thing could be very fruitful that is a regular arrangement of question-answer session. It will give your partners an opportunity to clear up any confusion. Apart from that you must ask yourself while designing every plan is “does it get you and your business the desired outcome”? Be very clear and keep it simple.

Focus on team building and keeping up the tempo
It becomes an easy job to execute a plan if it is done through teamwork. So as leader try to build up teams within the organization. One of the most crucial things that you must show is confidence in the ability of your teams. If you can do that, you will be able to build a sense of urgency within the teams and at the same time you will earn a lot of respect from your teammates as well. Building up teams and helping them to keep up the tempo is a regular job of a leader and your greatness lies in how you do that. You can’t interfere too much in the works of the teams too much as this process will also provide opportunity for others to show their leadership skills while under your guidance. A great leader lets his or her teams do the work in their own style. As a leader your job is to monitor them and giving them advice and support when required.

It is a really important skill to learn if you want to be successful in business. So when you are out there looking for the right business make sure that one of the criteria to choosing a business is to find at least one great leader to follow and have them mentor you.
