Are you ready to give up? Keep Walking…
For most of us in business or in a workplace, the professional journey is hardly a smooth ride. Getting and staying in business, or in a top professional position for that matter, usually comes with a magnitude of challenges. And, well, from time to time we get tempted to walk away from it all – to give up.
I often talk about success factors for business and life in general. As a matter of fact, it is one of those common threads in my business and the messages I share. One of the key professional success factors is tenacity, or the ability to persist and navigate through tough times (even when it is REALLY tempting to just give up). Yes, giving-up on professional hopes, dreams and desires is a significant reason why businesses cease to exist in tough times. Continue reading

Why you need a Gratitude Attitude
Gratitude, or the emotion of appreciation and joy in response to receiving a gift, is one of the basic ingredients for experiencing a good life. Research in recent years has indicated that an attitude of gratitude has many benefits, including improving mental and physical health. But that’s not the only benefit. In business, gratitude enables us to maintain a mindset of positive expectation, attract opportunity and move into our higher professional purpose.
Studies over the last decade found that adults who regularly feel grateful have increased energy and optimism, more social connections and are happier than those who do not. They're also less likely to be envious or greedy, PLUS they often earn more money!

Are your Habits Serving You?
As a business coach and consultant working with different types of business ventures and individuals over the years, I’ve come to learn that not every entrepreneur or business owner has the daily habits needed to create success in their business. When it comes to growing and succeeding in business, HABITS can either make or break us.
In essence, a habit is something we personally create by repeating a particular behaviour - something we do over and over again without really having to think about it. Continue reading

Rapidly Grow your Business with a Follow-up System
Success in business is often determined by getting the simple basics right. One of these basics (regardless if you are an employee, an entrepreneur in your own business, or running a large operation) is about building and maintaining strong relationships. Relationships with suppliers, new prospects, existing clients, former clients, affiliates, service providers – everybody who plays a role in making your business successful.
Yes, most of us prefer to socialise and do business with people we KNOW, LIKE and TRUST, and our relationships will determine if we are known, liked and trusted. Whilst most business people are able to connect and establish relationships, many fall short on following up and maintaining the relationships. Failure to follow up or nurture your relationships will have a direct negative impact your bottom-line and therefore your business success. Continue reading

Professional Passion – Are you Fired-up or Burnt-out?
I have a personal motto that “Life is too short not to love what you are doing”. Unfortunately, many professionals have not yet discovered their true passions and purpose, let alone aligning their business, career or life choices to these.
Let’s take a closer look at PROFESSIONAL PASSION – It is not only the fuel that gets us out of bed in the morning, but it is also an essential differentiator in determining our probability to succeed in the long-run! Continue reading
More Confidence and Courage Today
I personally think that most people, even highly successful achievers, at some stage or another feel that they could do with a little more confidence and courage in their lives. We live in a world where negativity often dominates the media. At both personal and professional levels we are often reminded of our weaknesses, shortcomings and what cannot be done. Whilst the media bombards us with subtle messages which highlight our shortcomings, we may also be reminded of what we lack by people closest to us – people who we actually rely on for encouragement and support. These all slowly erode confidence and courage.
The good news is that there are a number of proven techniques that, if applied consistently and on a regular basis, can help you to move beyond fear, doubt and uncertainty, and actually push up the level of confidence and courage you already have! Continue reading

Obstacles to Financial Success and How to Overcome them
If you take a look at highly successful entrepreneurs and business people, you may ask “what makes them different from others”. Is it luck, hard work or their ability to take decisive action?
The answer is probably more complicated, but in my book top achievers are in their success space due to a number of reasons. They will not submit to fear, they associate with positive and uplifting personalities, they take a no-excuses approach to business and life in general, they keep on working on their habits and they are never too proud to keep on learning.
Let me explain what these obstacles are and how they impact business success and financial independence. Continue reading
