Malcolm Forbes has a thing or 2 to say about “value” in today’s Quote Action!

Here’s your “QuoteAction” of the day:

“Too many people overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are.”
Magazine Publisher, Malcolm Forbes

Your action for today is to see which one of your talents you may be undervaluing and start using it more frequently instead.

Have an extraordinary day!

Give someone an AWESOME day!!

I hope you find your talent today and see where it can take you.  I have written an entire journal entry based on this idea and if you journal as well, I would HIGHY recommend that you take a few minutes and see if there is a talent that you might be under utilizing! I know you are awesome, now it is time to share it with the world…. the business world!

 

Networking Nugget by Casey Eberhart, invite a stranger to lunch!

<<Networking Nugget>> Today is an “outside the comfort zone” nugget.  You know that person in your office or in your building that you see everyday but do not even know much more than their name? Ask them if they would join you for lunch just to get to know them better. ** Advanced Nugget** Ask 3 more people to join you.  The 4 of you can just get to know each other.

Hey Gang~~  I started doing this when I was in college.  The cool thing about asking a stranger to lunch is that you NEVER know who they know or if you will become life long friends. One of the reasons I like to invite multiple people is I now position myself as the anchor if any of these relationships bloom. By doing this, you will quickly establish yourself as a connector of people and that is extremely powerful in the world of business relationships.  When at lunch it is all about the other people, I want to get to know them and see how I can support them in their business.  The cool that happens to me quite often is people are so excited to meet some new people that they almost always do anything to help you in your business.  Trust me, doing this might be a bit outside your comfort zone but it can have a HUGE payoff.

Give someone new an AWESOME day!!

Networking Nugget by Casey Eberhart

<<Networking Nugget>> Today we will be talking JAIL!  If you were picked up and taken to jail, who in your cell phone would you call if you were given 3 calls?  Your nugget for the day is to call each one and just let them know that they are your “bail your ass out of jail” person. Two things will happen, you will find out if they are up for the challenge AND you will have a good chuckle.

I actually love this Nugget!  This is such a fun one to do, I had a fun time today giving my 3 a call.  The results were great and I found myself catching up with an old friend about his family.  If you take me up on this Nugget trust me when I tell you this will at the very least get you into several great conversations.  If you want to take it to the next level then call your “Jail” friends that are in other parts of the country.  I actually called a friend up in Seattle just to let him know if I was caught in a bad situation up in the Pacific Northwest, that he would be it!!  I would love to hear about you results with this Nugget.

Give your close friends an AWESOME day!!

 

Willam George Plunkett talks about opportunity in today’s Business Quote Action.

Here’s your “QuoteAction” of the day:

“Three things that never come back: the spent arrow; the spoken word; the lost opportunity.”
Printer, Willam George Plunkett

Your action for today is to make one phone call to help set in motion an opportunity you’ve wanted to explore.

I could write an entire paper on this topic but I am going to be too busy making calls!  Since I am a public speaker, I will be making several phone calls to people who have heard me before and have expressed an interest in having their groups know how to better network and generate leads for the member’s businesses.  I truly believe that most people walk right on over so many opportunities that they could have turned into something special.  I gotta go make some calls!

Have an extraordinary day!

Give someone an AWESOME day!!

What is one (1) area that you could improve about your life?

Here’s your “QuoteAction” of the day:

“Human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives.”

Your action for today is to identify an area in your life you would like to improve and begin to think about it in a new way.

I would challenge you to go one step further and do something about making the improvement actually stick.  Maybe you could leave a comment here and let us know what it is that you want to improve?
