Sal DeFilippo - Entrepreneur litmus test: Sure-tell signs that you are ready to build your own business

Not everyone has what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. And you can’t just take a pop quiz to determine whether you’re cut out to create your own business.


Or can you?


Here’s a recent article from Entrepreneur.com that will help you see if you have the traits that most entrepreneurs do. Don’t let this decide anything for you, but it might help you understand how entrepreneurs need to think and whether you are intuitively wired that way.


I promise, there’s no math. But the more you learn about what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur, the more ready you will be to succeed! Pay particular attention to No. 10 and know that you aren’t the only one.

SUCCESS STORY OF THE WEEK


What’s the most important part of Amy’s Daily Do-It? The part where you actually follow through and DO IT. That’s why it was so great to hear from Laura L. Stapleton this week.


Laura commented on one of my recent Daily Do-It posts on Facebook, about the importance of forgiveness:


“This is exactly why I listen to your Let Go of Resentment . It’s helped so much!”


So happy to hear it! Laura is talking about one of the more than 75 meditation albums I have available on AmyApplebaumAlbums.com. Whether you’re looking for self-improvement, help with relationships, money matters, health issues, overcoming fears … I can help, just like I have with Laura. And so glad to see her find a way to take the Daily Do-It and use it!


To YOUR success,


Amy

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve. Sometimes that goal may be small (like waking up an hour earlier than you normally do) and sometimes it may be larger (like earning a promotion). But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?” Th
