5 years worth vs 3 encounters

Little did i know when i took this that two hours later i would receive a catalytic comment in the exact location (2nd floor, far left wall art).

 

5 years worth vs 3 encounters.

Imagine…

You’ve had an executive coach for five years.

In only three face-to-face encounters with a new person, you’ve been pushed more than in the past five years.

Would you switch coaches even if it cost you more?

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

It’s your ship to sink or sail

It has been incredibly interesting to be in charge of everything.

As CEO of your own small business, you can do anything you want.

This is a blessing and a curse.

You might sink your ship. You might discover new shores.

Bottomline, it humbles you in learning why so many people do, or don’t do, the things they do.

Survival.

And if you manage to survive, greed comes a calling asking you to cut corners, take short cuts, exaggerate.

But then you remember the brand you are building – and none of those are even remotely acceptable.

This changes everything and always has

Orlando's Best Professional Keynote Speakers

 

(photo: It’s always a treat to talk directly with the CEO.)

It’s embarrassing how simple these posts are.

And it’s humbling to comprehend how astonishingly correct they are too.

The way we think changes everything.

Because the way we think drives what we see.

What we see changes everything.

Negotiating with CEO’s and Meeting Planners to describe what type of Keynote Speaker they should hire at some point leads to a bottomline revelation…

Client: But how is this going to drive our financial growth and shareholder value?

MLC:  You and your team worry about getting your brand on the cover of the Wheaties box (financial). MLC will worry about you winning the Olympic Gold medal (reputation).

At the end of the day, your customers don’t care if you are a money making machine. They only care that you love them. All day. Everyday.

The beautiful thing about attitude is that we don’t need a committee

Office Depot shelves full of choices

 

(photo: Office Depot and the dozens of business finance software choices.)

So many choices. Guess who gets to pick the best one to use everyday?

The beautiful thing about attitude is that we don’t need a committee.

There’s only one person in charge of it.

Great CEO’s read, study, teach, try, fail, try again, and keep trying until they succeed.

Especially the startup entrepreneurs. You know, the ones who quit their job and go for their dream.
