HAVING CONFIDENCE TO CHANGE:
Is there a part of your life where you want to make changes?
Maybe you are not happy with that part of your life and, you may even spend a great deal of your time complaining about it to anybody who will listen
So, why have you not made the necessary changes?
A little story about my friend, Joe, will help to illustrate the point.
My friend Joe is one of the few people I know that doesn’t seem to have a temper.
As long as I have known Joe, I have never seen him angry.
You might think that he is someone who puts up with poor treatment from others, but he doesn’t.
Joe has always worked as a lorry driver, delivering for various businesses and factories.
A few months back, he was delivering for a factory that he was working for at the time.
One day, there wasn’t enough time to get all the deliveries done so, he returned to the factory with some deliveries aboard the lorry.
His intention was to deliver them the next day.
The CEO wasn’t happy.
In fact, he completely lost his temper with Joe and, as we say here in Ireland:
‘He tore strips out of Joe’.
Joe kept his calm and left for the day.
That night, he gathered his thoughts and, the following morning, he handed in his notice.
He was not prepared to be spoken to in that manner.
 He wasn’t angry.
He was just confident that he could get a better job and, that he deserved a better job, with better management.
He backed himself to do better.
Within a few weeks, he had found himself a better job and he is much happier for it.
You don’t have to be as bold as Joe but, if there is a part of your life that you are not happy with, you need to take action to rectify it.Maybe you need to:
 Start looking for alternative employment.
 Speak up to whoever you are having issues with
 End a relationship
 Ask somebody out
 Go travelling
Only you can decide what specific changes you need to make.However, one thing that is true for all of us is that if you are unhappy with an area of your life, you need to do something to change it.
As long as you avoid making changes, you are choosing to be unhappy with that area of your life.
You don’t have to make the change as rapidly as Joe did but, like Joe, you need to have confidence in yourself. Have the confidence that you can do better, back yourself and start making those changes.

Business Lessons We Can Learn From the World Cup:

Football is a game that some like. Others do not really care about what goes on in the world of football. I know much about Kenyan football and the European league. However, something excites me about the world cup. I like the world cup because it brings all of us together. A world united is a beautiful thing. I also like the buzz characteristic of sporting events and above all, I enjoy watching a good game. As I have watched this year’s matches, I have been reflecting on the many business lessons we can learn from the world cup.

I did follow closely the world cup-qualifying matches and wasn't surprised that team Italy and Netherlands did not make it this year. It wasn't also a major surprise for Germany the 2014 winner and favorite for many to finish last in their group. As a reflected on this, I wondered what lesson we could learn:

1. A business’s history is not a guarantee for consistently winning in the marketplace. The marketplace is evolving and it is becoming very competitive. To survive, businesses must select strategies and tactics that help them stay ahead. In addition, businesses must not rely on past successes as a surety for survival. Businesses must be ready and willing to change tact.

2. Both individual and team performance are crucial. Most of the players in the world cup are top in their clubs. They spend adequate time training and playing within their clubs but not as much time with those in their national teams. In the world of business just like in football, while it is important to have the best team members, the team must work well together. In business, performance is considered as a product of ability and motivation and the same applies in football. To perform exceptionally well, both individuals and the team collectively must work well together. Argentina’s comeback surprised many; it was evident that the team went all out against Nigeria. It was not enough for them to rely on just one top scorer. In business, when we have individuals that have special abilities, we gain a competitive advantage. However, to win in the marketplace, individuals with special abilities need to be part of a great team.

I find every match so different. Some matches are boring others are very enjoyable. I like to watch a good match. I describe a good match as one where the teams are playing to win, there are minimal fouls and the referee is fair. I draw my lesson number three from this analogy:
3. Smart businesses just like the best football teams need to play to win. I believe that trying not to lose in business does not match the will power to score a goal. The marketplace has many opportunities that we need to embrace. When we only make moves that we are certain about, we miss these opportunities. If a business is always in defense mode, it remains unattractive.

World cup is unquestionably the world’s largest sporting event. As the winners France celebrate their victory, let us reflect on the many lessons that we have learned.
