Extraordinary Business

I recently heard a radio personality comment on a football game he was watching. The comment was related to how the coach managed the clock and how difficult it must be to keep track of the time outs while managing the plays and accounting for the obvious obstacles created by the opposing team.

What's interesting is as a leader you experience similar change every day. The Leader's team is their people and strategy is their playbook. Instead of one team, leaders are often competing against many teams at the same time. The clock you manage is through your annual goals and your fiscal year. As with any team, you have your standout players, your team players and those who fail to deliver their best.

As you look at 2008, what are some of the biggest challenges you see with meeting your goals?

So many people seek wealth without realizing they already possess it. Every one of us is already a millionaire. The only difference between those who have $1 million and those who are working for it is the skills they mastered. So something to ask yourself is if you are already a millionaire, why don't you have $1 million? Those obstacles in the way are what is cleaning out your "bank account." It's the counterproductive habits that have removed the funds to this point. What you really need to do is look at what has made you successful so far, and how can you use it to eliminate the bad habits. Apply more of what you do well and focus yourself on your goal. No matter what it is, you can achieve it if you are committed to taking action.
