STOP LIVING IN A POOR MAN'S PARADISE

The last financial crisis or meltdown experienced across the world, signify to us that anything can happen especially when you are a job seeker (employee) rather than a job provider (employer). With each passing day, more and more people dream of a viable business to contain the high cost of living.
            As an employee, it is difficult to make ends meet in most times. Getting paid today and being broke the next day is not healthy for a good life.  How to guard against such a situation is therefore the best bet.  You may wish to start a business, either on part time or full time. You have skills you can develop into a viable business if you can harness it.
            I may work ten hours a day, but I still find time to offer my services as a web programmer or as a writer to my clients.  The Internet provide a lot of opportunities these days to work on part time and make real money while still maintaining your full time job. You can sign up for free at www.globalerrands.com,  www.elance.com  or www.outsourcetoday.net These are one-stop shop for professionals like you who are providing services to a wide clientele around the globe, make real money and possibly retaining their full-time job.
            You lack the ability to run a business? (Then take this SALE AND HIRING course) You are not alone. The key is to move beyond your doubts and envision what your life would be like when you have your own successful business. Don’t mind how you start; begin with the end in mind. No matter how small the business is at the beginning, it will someday become a multinational company. Start with what you have and “persist” ahead. But be sure to start with a good and well written business plan that will guide you in achieving success in your business - TAKE A TWELVE TO SUCCESS TRAINING.
            Money doesn’t grow on trees, real wealth is created from profits and not wages and you already know the source of profits = businesses! We all have talents and skills that would surely benefit others but we often take it for granted. Once you have identified what type of business you want to start based on your skills, your focus should be on marketing and other essential business related activities (women are not left out in business these days).
            Having a fulltime job in addition to running a business part time can be demanding. We all have a number of things that demand our time, but we must find ways to manage our time. The same 24hours is giving to everybody equally, what you do with your time determines how far you’ll get in life.
            Are you willing to make the necessary sacrifice to put your ideas into reality? Then you need to start a business. The money you make from providing value to others will benefit those close to you. Take time to reward your family and friends for their patience and tolerance while you work on your dreams. And even better, you can show them how to start their own businesses, so that they too will realize that the way to wealth is through profit from business, not wages.

INTERNAL PROMOTION AND SUCCESSION PLANNING

Promotion comes as a result of ones performance on the job over a period of time, or it could be said to be an advancement in ones profession. Succession on the other hand is a shift in position as a result of promotion, transfer, retirement or death of others. It could be as well a change in policy of an organisation leading to reorganisation of operations and human resources. Getting succession right is vital. There are two approaches that can be used at different times to ensure success. The internal selection approach advocates choosing successors from within, to ensure a smooth transition, preserve company values, and encourage employees by showing a potential career path. Most organisations struggle with how to turn succession into success. It is necessary to use either internal selection or the Darwinian approach at different levels or at different times. For example, a high percentage (80%) of senior roles may be internally appointed, while junior roles are sel...

GREEDY PEOPLE, POOR NATION

A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, 'Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like. The Lord led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in.  In the middle of the room was a large round table.  In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly.  They appeared to be famished.  They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful.  But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. The Lord said, 'You have seen Hell.' They went to the next room and opened the door.  It was exactly the same as the first one.  There was the la...

Reasons for most Business Failures

There has been rampant cases of business failures both in the past and at present.  One wondered what is behind this.  Some even make assertions that the business world has collapsed, some says businessmen has joined the political wagon that they have failed to differentiate between business capital and profit. All these assertions have no basis.  You may ask what then has been behind most business failures?  The answer to this question is simple “poor customer relations”. One of the single greatest key to long-term business success can be summed up in three simple words: Quality customer service. Yet as customers, you and I are aware that quality customer service is far too rare these days in spite that many business organisations have invested heavily in this unit but few actually make any headway.  Why is excellent service so rare? There are three reasons for this.             Employees don’t know t...
