"Do You Depend on Others for You're Success!"

August 25, 2014

Be extremely careful who you depend on. I have seen financial empires and economic fortunes lost and crumbled because people trusted and depended upon people. You're financial future, and business is far too significant and precious to leave in the hands of other people who are not qualified to be depended upon.

I make it mandatory whoever I work with, or partner with me personally Mentor and they go through our Mentorship program. If anyone refuses to learn our Leadership system no matter how good the opportunity looks I walk away period, no negotiation on that principle. Even the people I have personally trained and worked with for over a year sometimes go wrong, fly north and let us down like a led balloon. If the people you train go south at times, why would you want to "Depend" on anyone who does not know your systems, method of operation, mindset, business ethics, principals or long term goals.

Too many times we "Depend" on people who have no clue what we expect, what we want, what we do, how we do it but Say that they do! Depending upon people is a very, very dangerous thing and should never be taken lightly.

For the majority of inhabitants, they have good intentions and mean well, but what comes out of their mouth means "Absolutely Nothing." I am always on a constant mission to train and educate those around me and eliminate those who have proven I cannot depend on them. Depending upon people that will impact your life, "You don't trust anyone?" I trust people, but I am very careful who I depend upon. Trusting someone and depending are two different things. Here are the five top culprits that will cause you to rely on people that end up in disastrous outcomes.

1) They Have Lots of Potential. These are the most dangerous people to depend upon. We fall head over heels for people that have talents, skills, ability, and potential. We find these people, and we entrust our entire future in their hands. I do not look for talent, nor possible but "Character, Teachable, and proven Dependability."

2) They talk Good. They start talking, and when they are done you are amazed and say "they are Smooth" but "Ex-Lax" makes you "Flow Smooth" too, so what is the problem.

3) They were Successful in the Pass. Who cares if they were rich in the past, why are they broke now?

4) They are a Good Person. I am sure they are, being a real person, with a good heart, and even right intentions do not guarantee that they are dependable.

5) I Want to Help Them. If that is the case, sit down and write them a check for up to half of all you have and send them on their way. That will cost you less money, stress and problems than depending on them.

"Depend on" An element that can make or break you, use it with caution.

Improving Your Manners will increase your daily success

August 21, 2014

"Good Manners" are always fashionable, in good taste and in the season.  As we strive to live out our life as a whole person, expressing success and goodness in every aspect of living "Good Manners" is a wonderful attribute to cultivate and practice. we live in a world that is filled with unhappy people that are rude, hostile, angry, and addicted to displaying "Bad Manners." As a successful professional "Bad Manners" on our part are never acceptable

It is very easy to display bad manners without realizing it. O Monday l was at lunch with a fellow business partner "MJ" and we were listening to a conference call on my cell phone. There were two elderly ladies in the next booth that kept looking at me. I thought they were thinking, "Wow what a good looking man that guy is!" My head and ego grew by the moment until they got and gave me a stern "Rebuke" on how rude l was and bad manners l showed by blasting that call on my speaker phone in public while people were eating. Thank God for "Extra Strength" Poly Grip or the Rebuke would have knocked my choppers right out of my head.

She was right, how rude of me to display of "Bad Manners" on my part!

Success is about personal and self-management, self-evaluation and self-improvement. We must always evaluate improve and adjust our behavior and conduct, both personally and professionally. The biggest common denominator of bad habits is "Uncontrolled Language" Derogatory Language is a very unattractive character trait that does not fit a growing, successful leader and wealthy business professional.

Would you want a dentist working on your teeth while every other word were, That Blank so and so is one dumb....." Or how about a proctologist telling you "Bend over while I shovel this thing up your........!" Why, if that would ever happen you would be at your attorneys office filling a complaint.

"Good Manners" goes far beyond our words, but penetrates our actions, thinking and methods of dealing with people. "Bad Manners" is always letting others pay for our meals. "Good Manners" is always picking up the check for your guests. I can always detect the true character, bank account and future success of a person by observing what they do when the check comes.

I always make it the nonnegotiable habit of picking up the check when eating out with friends and business guests. Many times, when I am out with a new person that wants to do business or an associate with me I will take them out to eat. Without them knowing I will hand the waiter my Credit card and tell them to pay the bill and just bring the receipt in the little black book and do not say anything. After we are done eating and the waiter brings what looks like the check and puts it on the table. I will just sit there without making a move to see what the other person does.

I have had them get up to make a phone call, go to the restroom, or keep talking without stopping and move from subject to subject. I have found if someone displays "Bad Manners" from the start, they will display it throughout the entire relationship and its best to part ways then and there with a smile.

What single woman thinks a man would make a good future husband that was cheap and displayed "Bad Manners"? Check your Manners constantly and observe the manners of other. Good and Bad Manners speak volumes! My Millionaire Mentor taught me over 30 years ago, "Don always pick up the check." In those early days in 1980 l would take people out to dinner and silently pray "Dear Jesus, please them order water and a salad." Sometimes they would but most of the time they ordered Shrimp and Steak along with a salad."
