Business Motivation – May 15, 2009

Successful People Make Decisions It’s your life. You decide what you’re going to do with it. If you don’t run your own life, someone else will. You’re in control of your life to the degree that you make decisions. To control the outcome of anything, you control the action at the point of decision making. If you let others make decisions for you, you give up control. When you control the decisions, you control the actions. Take charge of your life, so there is no longer a need to ask permission of others. When you ask permission, you’re giving someone “veto” power over your life. Only you are responsible for your life. Take control and start making those decisions. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.

Small Business Motivation – May 13, 2009

Quality of Life Begins in Your Mind It’s not what you have, but what you enjoy that constitutes your abundance. Your real riches are riches in your head and heart. Wealth without enjoyment is little consolation. True satisfaction comes from appreciating what you have. There are two ways of being happy: you must either diminish your wants or augment your means. It’s always better to appreciate things you cannot have than to have the things you cannot appreciate. Your riches will always lie within you, not in your material possessions. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.

Small Business Motivation – May 12, 2009

You’re Always in Charge of You While your character is formed by circumstances, your own desires can do much to shape those circumstances. Thus, you have the power over the formation of your own character. You’re the master of your fate and the captain of your soul. Nature is always at work around you. Your character and destiny are her handiwork. She gives you love and hate, jealousy and reverence. You have the power to choose which impulse you will follow. You can at any time decide to alter the course of your life. No one can ever take that away from you. The greatest power you possess is the power to choose. You’re the master of your joys and your sorrows. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.

Small Business Motivation – May 8, 2009

Empower your small business in anyway you can with proven tools, perspectives, attitudes and actions that will give you an edge and the ability to take charge of the situation at hand. Belief Makes Everything Possible In order to succeed, you must first believe you can. The only thing that stands between you and what you want from life, is the will to try it and the faith to believe that it’s possible. The only true limit to your realization of tomorrow will be your doubts of today. The moment you carry the conviction of belief, in that moment your dream will become reality. There are no real barriers to your success. You must simply overcome any doubts you have about your ability. If you think you can, you can. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.
