Biz Tip of The Day: Developing a New Skill or Habit Takes Practice


Biz tip of the day: Developing a new skill or habit takes practice. Changing an old one takes even more practice, planning and thought. First, write down what you would like your behavior to be. Spell it out, “I will call on three clients before 11:00 Am five days a week.” You must stay focused and push yourself to accomplish it until it becomes easier and easier to do.

Should you fail one day, do not be deterred from getting back on track the following days. Take yourself through the steps mentally of setting up the appointments and following through. After it becomes doable for you, you may even add more clients into the equation. Think of yourself as the one who can see more outside clients than anyone else. This is commendable, but simultaneously you must work on having a good success rate with the clients. It is not overwhelming when you incrementally add good working habits to your daily routine instead of trying to accomplish them all at once.

Biz Tip of The Day: Sit, Stand, and Posture for Success


Biz tip of the day:
 
Sit, stand, and posture for success. Looking and acting like a leader helps you become an  effective leader. Psychologists have proved that practicing positive postures does improve how you perceive yourself as well as how other perceive you. Smiling, for example, instead of frowning changes your outlook and attitude and that of others, too. Try a simple exercise such as smiling at a stranger while out shopping and you will almost always get a smile back.

Before a meeting, presentation, or a speech it is good to walk around with arms up; sit at with your feet up on a desk; stand on your tiptoes with your arms in the air. Never make yourself small by hunching over notes just prior to any of the events mentioned.

In a meeting always sit or stand up straight. When sitting lean forward with hands up to make a point. It is better not to cross your legs. Rest your arms on the chair arms if available and you are more likely not to cross your arms.

Now, go out there and use your power poses to be a more effective leader.
