Just do it!

I think a lot of entrepreneurs get stuck in the information gathering phase and never accomplish anything.  If you have ever taken the Kolby A index they measure things like your desire to gather information before starting on something.  A lot of people in our culture our information junkies.  They want information about anything and everything and think about other options that are available to them.

If you are going to accomplish anything in life you need to not only gather information but more importantly act on it.  I heard of someone one time saying that when they pick up a book they quit reading after they get three good ideas from it and implement them.  They said if they read longer they end up not implementing any of them.

That has often been true in my life.  Just today I was reading about a Master’s degree for people that wanted to plant churches.  I was thinking, “Just go out and plant a church.”  Maybe get your Master’s Degree while you are doing it.

The world is filled with people who have great ideas, dreams of a better tomorrow and a vision of what could be.  There are many less people who take action on those ideas, dreams and visions.  If you are here looking for information and learning that’s great.  If you are wasting time because you already know what you should be doing and your just not doing it then close this browser down and take action right now!  Take massive, consistent action in the same direction and you will be amazed at how far you can go.

Membership Site

A great business model that a log of people have been pushing the last 3 or 4 years is membership sites.  There are a lot of programs out there that seem to be really good but cost a ton.  I actually purchased one of those back in the day.

I ran across a membership site today that trains people in starting up membership sites using amember and joomla or amember and wordpress and only costs $19.95 a month.  If you are interested in using a membership site for your entreprenurial goals this might be a great site for you to check out.

Rich Schefren latest report

There are very few people that I read everything they put out.  Rich Schefren is definitly at the top of the list.  He is coming out with his latest report during the month of September.  If you aren’t on Rich’s list you need to be.  Check out his teaser video.  While you are waiting for latest report you might want to read the other ones that he offers on his site.

I was able to attend his Strategic Profits conference in February and was totally impressed with his humility and willingness to learn from anyone and work on things through the night to deliver the best product possible.

Here are Rich and I at 4 in the morning while Rich was tweaking his presentation based on feedback to give the highest possible benefit to the attenders.  It was a challenge to me in my own life to provide the very best that I can for those I serve.

One of the great lines from his teaser video is “Do it wrong fast.”  When you make mistakes as fast as you can you learn what works and what doesn’t and you can focus on that.

Free Motivational Gift Test

Spiritual Gifts can be a confusing thing.  Some say that the lists in scripture are exhaustive, others that they are not.  Some think that all the list in scripture should be combined, others that they should be separated.   Some think you need to manifest certain gifts as a sign of your salvation others think if you manifest those same gifts your a fake or worse being influenced by Satan.

Anyway, I won’t dive into the controversy here other than to help clarify for yourself a little bit.

www.gifttest.org has a free test that will let you know what your gifts from Romans 12 are.  I believe the author has the understanding that Romans 12 gifts are for part of God’s common grace to all humans and therefore each person has at least one with exceptional leaders having higher amounts of all seven.  That the 1 Corinthians 12 gifts are from the Holy Spirit and are an example of a special grace for believer’s to build up and encourage other believers and that the Ephesians 4 gifts are from Jesus Christ for the building up of the church.  I think it is helpful to become more aware of who God has created you to be and how he has gifted you.

Web Video 2.0

It’s not secret that web video has taken the internet by storm. If you are an entrepreneur online today no doubt you have watched if not even made a few videos yourself.
John Reese with his promotional videos for traffic secrets 2.0 has definitely upped the ante. John said that they used some pretty high end software on the mac to make the videos. ” The videos were all produced on multiple Macs. Our workflow uses a variety of applications — Final Cut Pro, Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D, 3D Studio Max.” Reese.

Reese is definitely on the leading edge of video quality for internet marketers but and you will obviously be wanting to move in that direction.

I first created videos for the internet in 2006 and the ease of use with everything has increased dramatically in the time being. Software, video equipment, hardware is all much better. If you don’t have anything else you can pick up a flipvideo camera and make quick videos to post online in minutes.

I like John Reese and really respect him as a person. I got to spend some time with him at Rich Scheferen’s Strategic Profits Conference in Orlando in February and my respect only grew. We had a few minutes alone as I accidentally led him the wrong way to the VIP room and I was challenged by him to break through fear and take action. One of the things that all successful business people seem to have in common is that they take massive action and quit doing the things that don’t work and pour even more action into the areas that do work. Video is one area that works right now. It’s actually how I won my trip to the Strategic Profit’s conference by making a quick 66 second video talking about what I learned from his Attention Age 2 Doctrine.

Being Comfortable isn’t really what you are after

According to George Barna being comfortable isn’t really what you are after.  Actually it is but it is way down the list at number 6 of what is most important to most American’s.

If you have your life together in the first few areas I think you are much better off than if you have a comfortable life with a nice house, car, job etc.

The top 5 areas that most American’s want to have in the future are:

1.  Good Physical Health

2.  Integrity

3.  1 Marriage Partner for life (This one surprised me based on current divorce rates)

4.  Close Relationship with God.

5.  Close, intimate relationships with friends.

Though this is a site for entrepreneurs who often desire freedom and some of the things that go along with a comfortable lifestyle I think we need to make sure that our goals are balanced.  That we make goals not only for our businesses but for our lives as well to make sure that we hit what is most important.

So when you work on goals starting with the top 5 things that American’s hope to have in the future might be a great place to start.

Action Steps:

1.  What do I need to do to ensure I have good physical health?

2.  Are there areas in life where I need to bolster my integrity or make things right?

3.  What kind of input have I been giving to my marriage?  How healthy is my marriage?

4.  Have I been investing in close friendships?

5.  Have I been investing in my relationship with God?

It’s interesting that this is the list not for American Christian’s but American’s in general.  If you work on the first five you will go a long way towards living out the life that God has for you and experience a lot of joy and fulfillment along the way.
