Wheel of Life Podcast: Business|Productivity|Accountability

I believe it takes the same amount of energy to obtain an ideal client as it does anyone who is breathing and not ideal. If you are going to invest time and marketing money into getting clients, why not get the kind of clients you want. You will probably need fewer of them anyway then if you just look for ‘clients’ (anyone to fill a slot). Before you talk to your existing clients and strategic alliances about referrals, you need to create an Ideal Client Profile. This description should be detailed and specific. Take advantage of the FREE online exercise to help you create your Ideal Client Profile at http://www.accountabilitycoach.com/. Think about who your best clients are right now, and consider what makes them so great. What attitudes and attributes do they have that you enjoy them so much? The clearer you are on what you want you will begin to attract them to you. You will be better at asking for what you want. You can join groups where you know these people are instead of just accepting anyone and needing even more clients to achieve your goals. Not make a list of your clients, peers, friends, and strategic alliances/centers of influence and potential strategic alliances/centers of influence (think outside the box) who you think have clients who fit your profile or they would know people who would fit your profile. Figure out exactly what you want, state it clearly, and allow the people you know to help you find them and attract them to you. Reap the rewards!

Today we are going to talk about, Is Lack of Motivation Stopping You From Getting Things Done? If you’re sitting at your desk with a “To Do List” a mile long, but you can’t find the motivation to tackle it, keep reading. By the end of this article, you will hopefully reclaim your motivation and enthusiasm. How is it that some days it feels as if you have enough motivation to conquer the world, yet other days, the smallest task seems to drain the life out of you? The answer is simple: motivation is fueled by your level of desire and commitment, and when your desire and commitment falls, so does your motivation. Have you ever been so engrossed by something you loved every second of it and lost track of all time? Your desire and commitment was so high, that time became non-existent, when in reality, several hours had passed. So how do you deal with lack of motivation for tasks that you dislike, yet must be done? The good news is that your lack of motivation can be resolved with only a shift in thinking. We will talk about three specific tips and action steps for helping you.

Today we are going to talk about How to Use Accountability to Build Success. Learning how to use accountability to build success for your business is an effective way to build a better business. What exactly is accountability in business? Accountability is taking full responsibility for your actions or non-actions in life and in business. Regardless of the money invested or personal passion for the business, if you don’t hold yourself accountable for the success of your business, there’s only a slim chance you will ever reach the level of success you have in mind. While there are several components to building a successful business, many entrepreneurs fail to realize that accountability is the driving force behind success or failure. It is essentially a “no-excuses” approach to everything business. Ask any successful business owner and they’ll confirm the only reason things happened was because they understand they were the only person who could make or break the business. How does accountability make a positive impact on the success of your business? We will talk about the top 4 distinguishing factors of business owners who use accountability to get results. It’s up to you to take the actions required to achieve your goals. Successful business owners are disciplined for a reason - it’s because their diligence produces results. You must consistently become your own motivator and cheerleader, although it can be challenging at times to be so. The truth is for most, when left to our own devices we let too many distractions keep us from the activities we know we need to do and yet don’t do them for whatever it is that’s stopping us. These groups (or coaching) will provide you with support when you need to push through fear or doubt and take action to get the results you desire.

We're all guilty of allowing the little things to distract us from what we should be doing. Instead of working, we chat with our friends or co-workers, check the latest chain email in our inbox, surf the internet, and do everything we can to avoid working on the things the produce the best results. In order to get where you want to be, you have to do the work required to achieve your goals and experience ultimate success. Take a moment and ask yourself where you truly want to be? Now tell me how many things you did today, yesterday, and the day before yesterday that directly contributed to the future results you want. And then tell me how many things you did today that did not contribute to your success. Those things probably distracted you from what you knew you should have been doing. Distractions are called distractions for a reason. They are distracting you from doing what you need to do in order to get you where you ultimately want to be. Reduce and eliminate distractions so you are in a better position to achieve your goals.

Today we are going to talk about Do You Know Where Your Focus Is Taking You? As an entrepreneur, you know the importance of focus and how it directly affects your success, for better or worse. This is most evident when applied to your goals; the more focused you are, the more precise your actions can be, getting you closer to your goals - faster. But did you know there are different levels of focus? The level which you are focused on will determine where you’re going. So the question is - do you know where your focus is taking you? We’re going to explore the different levels of focus. Before you apply this information to your life, take some time to write down your goals. Start with your life focus and then work backwards, including each level of focus until you reach the daily focus. You want to start with your life focus so you can start with the big picture. From there, you can break down your focus into yearly, monthly and then daily goals. Each night before you go to bed, write down your daily focus for the following day. You may want to buy a small notebook or keep a lined tablet in your daily planner, so you always have it on you, even if you’re on the road. To help you get started, go to www.AccountabilityCoach.com and complete your personal Wheel of Life and Quality of Life Enhancer™ exercises. Update your Quality of Life Enhancer™ exercise on a regular basis and enjoy the benefits. Feel free to share these complimentary exercises with others you think will get value from them. These exercises can be found under the FREE Silver Membership section. Your energy will always go in the direction of your focus, so keep it where you can make some real changes - in the present and future! Focus on what you really want in life and work toward achieving those things so you can fulfill everything you want in life.
