Volume 4, Issue 8: Attitude = Altitude

Have you ever worked with someone who is skilled, knowledgeable and experienced, yet just never seems to get ahead? Most of us have at some time or another. Alternatively, have you come across someone not quite as talented, but seems to always be moving upwards? The difference between these two types is not their level of skill or knowledge or experience. It comes down to one single thing - attitude.

Volume 4, Issue 3: Mindsets Part 2

“YOU CAN’T DO THAT….!”
Last month we looked at several different mindsets that effect life and business - people who tell you what you can and can’t do. These people can get into your spirit and limit your thinking so you don’t stretch or enlarge in life. So doing something different or risky becomes a minefield of negativity. When you do things like changing a service, marketing differently, improving customer service, or establishing a larger vision, many people will react negatively to the change.
