Taking Care Of Business

People I coach in business tend to focus on one thing their business

. Isnt that what they are suppose to do, you ask? Of course! If we dont focus on our business then guess what? We wont have one!

There is a common denominator, however, in every business - You - the person who started it, nurtures it and wants it to grow. And so, the million dollar question is, if you dont take care of the number ONE aspect of your business YOU the who of the business, than what makes you think you will be successful at taking care of the other aspects of the business the what?

Here is what I know. We are human beings first, not human doings first. Unfortunately, most people focus on the doing and try to diminish the impact of the being. And so I hear things like, no problem, I leave my personal and family life at home, or I dont have to look at my personal life. I just want to work on my business. Great! And good luck. I have never worked with or spoken to a successful business person that did not acknowledge the impact their personal life has on their business and sought help to deal with it. If you think things in your personal life are A-OK, thats awesome. If you feel you have the personal and home situation taken care of well done. And mark my words. If you dont acknowledge and get support for what is going on in your personal life, your business will suffer. Its like breaking a leg and trying to run a marathon. One does impact the success of the other.

Guess what? We all have aspects of our lives that impact our business, consciously or subconsciously. Its up to you whether you take care of business so you can truly focus on making your business flourish!

So how can you do this you ask? Here are a few suggestions to get you started:

1. Meditate. This just means being still within. There are many methods one can practice. A simple way is by sitting cross legged and focusing on your breathing. Dont worry if your mind is racing. It usually takes time before your mind is able to release any thoughts.

2. Go for a walk, preferably in nature; in a park, by the lake etc. Be aware of your

surroundings.

3. Laugh. Yes, just laugh. If you need to think of a joke or a funny situation great.

If you dont, just laugh.

4. Tell the people in your life you love them. Spend time with them. Dream

together.

5. Take a little time for yourself and just rest. Give yourself permission to just be

for a little whilenot do just be!

"One of the keys to effective communication and dispute resolution is understanding ourselves and how we think and also understanding how others are wired as well. Each of us has personality styles that are unique to ourselves - however there are also patterns as well. When you understand the differing personality styles and their blends - you begin to see people as they are with more understanding! For more information on understanding personality styles please contact Mandie at president@roaringwomen.com."
