Online Business, Those Little Things
-“Paying attention to simple little things that most men neglect makes a few men rich.”- Henry Ford
Let’s talk about the little thing that can become a big thing if you allow it. That thing is doubt. Do not allow doubt to grow into something that needs to be managed. It will always be in the room, this does not mean that you have to give it a seat at the table and offer it three square meals a day. Put doubt into its proper place.
Yes you could fail. I will take it a step further. Yes you will fail from time to time. It is going to happen. You do not dwell on it. It is part of business. Only politicians can point backwards at a long career and find no fault or failure. You and I live in the real world and not one made of spin. We accept this fact and move on. It is a little thing. Do not allow it to become a big thing.
Next up is money.
“What? Did you say money? Money is not a little thing.”
Yes I am calling money a little thing. If it becomes the begin all and end all of our daily lives I can promise you that you will be worrying about it for the rest of your life. Too many business people make money the target.
“But money is my target.”
If it is I would suggest finding a new dart board. Success should be your goal. Money will follow if you are successful at every other aspect of your business. Picture for me a big pot on a stove top. There is steam rising from the pot. What does this steam tell you? That the water is hot? That it is bubbling and something may be cooking inside. Look at money in the same way that you look at that steam. That steam tells you that the pot is cooking. Money or cash flow tells you that your business is running and running well enough to produce it.
Steam is a by product as is money. That steam is a little thing. Who ever is cooking sees the steam as an indicator that what is inside the pot is cooking. I repeat it is an indicator. Money is an indicator of the fact that what ever your business is doing it is doing it well. The better your business runs then the more money it will produce. A well made online business should produce money in a manor that seems almost automatic. Morning, noon and in the middle of the night that business should be producing money. You need to focus on building a business in a way that it can not help but produce money even when you are not tending to it in the same way that pot can not help, but produce steam whether it is being tended to or not.
The lesson for today is that if you concentrate on money your business will get neglected and it will not produce much if any money. While if you focus on building a really strong online business it can not help, but deliver money to you.
Okay that is going to be it for today. I would like to remind you guys that it is my advertisers that keep this site going. Just by checking out what ever they are offering (no need to buy anything) we still make money. That is the business model of a blog. While if a visitor actually signs up for an offer or better still buys something from those advertisers we make even more money. If this Blog goes past a certain number of daily visitors it makes money. Pennies a day from number of visitors, but one of my favorite sayings is “No one has ever gone broke by always taking a profit.”
That is all, please add us to your google plus and tell a friend about this site. Have a nice day and I think that it is time to get back to work.
