Questions about you

You ever see one of those "Questions about you" that you can answer and share with others that helps tell who you are? They're pretty cool and can often times be very revelling.

I was digging through one of my many paper-pads looking for a specific quote I wanted to use as a “status post” for my Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages, and while doing so I found “10 Questions” from notes taken a couple of years ago during a talk by Steve Siebold. You don’t have to answer them back to me, I just thought they’d make you stop and ponder:

  1. What are the three (3) most positive experiences of your life?
  2. List the three (3) most important things you’ve learned about success?
  3. How did your family make you feel about yourself?
  4. List your three (3) biggest heroes.
  5. Write down your own obituary as if you achieved all your dreams.
  6. What do you want your great-great grandchildren to say about you?
  7. What does success mean to you?
  8. What accomplishments are you the most proud of? Why?
  9. What beliefs and values are you willing to die for?
  10. Describe the perfect day in your life, if there were no limits.

My question: What did you learn about yourself from answering these questions?

“It’s a Monday!”


How often have your heard that stated…but in a negative manner…and worse yet, by your employees/team?

As a business owner and leader, one of your on-going challenges is to create an environment that motivates and stimulates your team(s). Environments that are exciting to be in and positive motivation that stirs your team to greatness, not for you but for your customers, will do wonders for your bottom line.

Dan Miller, author of “No More Mondays” and “48 Days to the Work You Love”, offers a website to help you inspire your team (http://www.48days.com/) as well as a free weekly newsletter you can consider subscribing too.

When your team sees Sunday afternoons at 5:00 the same way they see Friday afternoon at 5:00, then you’ll know you’ve won their hearts.

If you're not a business owner/leader: Do you find yourself miserable to go to your work on Monday mornings? Then why aren't you looking for another career? Why do you work at something you're unhappy about? Are you making others around you unhappy as well?

Even if you can't find something immediately, start looking. Work on your resume and start searching for somewhere to work that you have a passion for...even if it takes a while to find that "perfect" career path, at least your attitude will be better because you now have hope.

It's said that when you do something you love, then you never have to go to work---and I agree!

Start the journey, consider your passion and find a career that motivates & inspires you.

Make every Monday morning the best part of your week!

Until next time, remember “Your Success Is My Business."™
