 A Success Secret Every Entrepreneur Knows..Every entrepreneur knows that if they want to become more successful they have to not only set goals for themselves, but they have to RESET their goals to stay on course. The big problem, though, is most entrepreneurs wait way too long to reset their goals. Since today is July 1st (and the official Second Half of the Year Day) let's take a look at 3 types of goals every entrepreneur must have in place to succeed... Painless DisciplineI was talking to a colleague of mine the other day about writing books. The discussion went from "how do you write a book" to "how do you discipline yourself to write a book". Discipline isn't painful. Discipline is just taking control of your emotions and doing what you need to do. There is no pain involved. Here's how to be disciplined in everything you do. Failing is the New CoolOver the weekend I watched the movie, Bedtime Stories, with my son. In the story when Sandler first meets his "fair maiden" (who can't stand him at first), she comments that his hair looks goofy. Then, Sandler says, "Goofy is the new handsome." Well, with respect to Sandler and the movie, I'm going to change it up a little to fit the context of our conversation today. My new phrase is, "Failing is the New Cool."

Without any hesitation, and with a straight face, my friend looked at me and said, "No. If I give you more time, you can win." Procrastination Feels So RightAs entrepreneurs, we have a lot on our plate. Not only business activities, but when we venture home, personal activities. That's why learning to procrastinate the right way is a great skill to learn. So, to help you learn to procrastinate and feel great about it, I've created Weston's TOP 3 list of what entrepreneurs can procrastinate on: Everyone Has a Plan Until They Get Punched in the FaceTwo activities I really enjoy are marketing and martial arts. They are from two, totally different worlds, but they do share some commonalities. One of their commonalities is planning. 2009 Goals Revisited - 8 Months Left!I'm not sure if you realize this yet, but 4 months of 2009 are just about history.

Here's what to do: Pull out your 2009 Goals and Review them. Rewrite 'em with Victory and Next indications. Prioritize your 2009 Goals - get 'er done! An Entrepreneur's Worst NightmareToday is TAX DAY - ugh. And this, my friend, is/can an entrepreneur's worst nightmare. Let me explain: Tax day IS an entrepreneur's worst nightmare because today is the day the government bends us over and takes all are hard earned money. And for some reason...the more you make...the more money they take. Personally, I think this is BS! Does Your Business Make More Than Just a Little Peep?Easter is this weekend and the only candy besides chocolate that is allowed to be in the same sentence as Easter is Peeps! You know, the marshmallow treat that is shaped like a chick or a bunny. This awesome, little treat has been around for 56 years now! 1.2 Billion of them are sold worldwide every year! And there sales are INCREASING! So, what marketing lessons can we learn from these little treats (and its company)?
