Many entrepreneurs struggle to make the “right” decision when they weigh the pros and cons of an important choice. I, too, have experienced that feeling of being stuck. Most of us tend to add more details, seek more facts, and deliberate for extended periods. Then, analysis paralysis takes over, and the decision is again deferred—not exactly an ideal result. Everybody has heard the term “keep it simple,” but there is some science behind it.

I heard a comment that if you want to talk to business leaders, you should call them at 5 am because they are already awake. If you are like many, you wake up in the pre-dawn hours worrying about things you can’t control. There is something at that time of the morning when we are the most anxious and negative. We agonizingly criticize our performance, worry about what he hasn’t done, and torment ourselves about the unknown. I know because I am an expert at this.

I once heard a comment that if you want to talk to business leaders, you should call them at 5 in the morning because they’ll already be awake. If you are l

I am always fascinated by professional athletes and the physical and mental skills they demonstrate in crucial games. I am astounded by their incredible athletic prowess and ability to execute in pressure situations. They have fantastic concentration and focus and exceptional positive and winning attitudes. Their skills are honed mainly through years of quality instruction and practice. I have played golf since I was 10 years old and have suffered quietly in mediocrity for many years. Here is what I learned.

I frequently talk with entrepreneurs and executives that are entirely self-taught. They are incredibly optimistic and have exceptional technical expertise in th

Most healthcare professionals care deeply about their clients and patients. Many have publicly prioritized customer service, made technological investments to speed people through their systems, and posted aspirational signs about their commitment to service. Unfortunately, my real-life observation is that the message never gets to those interacting with their customers. I want to focus specifically on the medical delivery system because it is an easy target to learn from.

It’s the beginning of another quarter, and I am chancing a guess that your quarterly business plan may not be very effectively constructed. Most entrepreneurs usually have a strong sense of where they want to take their business, but a tactical plan is poorly defined. The benefit is clear.
If you clearly understand your goal and then apply strategies and tactics to accomplish it, you will achieve extraordinary achievements.

It’s the beginning of another quarter, and I am chancing a guess that your quarterly business plan may not be very effectively constructed. Most entrepreneurs

A friend forwarded me Professor Daniel Goleman's article “The Focused Leader” from the Harvard Business Review. It was an exciting report about leaders' focus, but I was struck by an understated, secondary mention of strategy that hit me like a mallet.

I frequently hear from business owners that they can’t get their marketing message across and stimulate action from their prospects. As part of my coaching program, I teach business owners a simple process and methodology for writing a great advertisement, sales letter, brochure, or, let's call it, a sales pitch.

Written several years ago, the simple article "Top Five Regrets of the Dying" recounts the lessons a hospice worker in Australia learned from her departing patients. Bronnie Ware, a former palliative care worker, shares, "For many years, I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some extraordinary times were shared.

Most of my entrepreneurial clients want me to help them refine their marketing plans more clearly at some point in our coaching relationship.
In an earlier blog article, I emphasized the need for a specific and excessively detailed description of the target market. This is the most critical component of a marketing plan that works. I am always amazed at how long it takes for that “blinding flash of the obvious” moment when my client sees the importance of the targeting exercise.

Most of my entrepreneur clients, at some point in our coaching relationship, want me to help them refine their marketing plan more clearly. I like to show them

There is a tremendous amount of “psychobabble” out there about the keys to personal success. There are lots of quick-fix soothsayers with mystical magic cures. I generally subscribe to the theory that you must prove it before I believe it. Call me a cynic or cautious, but I have signed up for this idea because it makes sense, and I have seen my client business leaders win using it.

I recently watched a musical group rehearsal and was especially interested in the conductor's method of carefully evolving improved competency.
He insisted that the group sight-read the entire piece of music, regardless of how many mistakes were made (and there were many). Despite the initial challenges, he drove the group to finish the piece the first time.

Most people need help staying organized and managing tasks and deadlines. We often find that our sense of well-being and accomplishment relates to how many things we get done in a day rather than the quality of what we achieve. So, we get into checklist mode and bask in the flow of endorphins when we cross out another item on our to-do list.
