The cost of delayed action is high; the cost of no action is even higher

I say this all the time:

1. Identify where your competition is uncomfortable and/or unwilling to go

2. Then go there as hard and as often as you can

The thing is too many businesses think about those words and apply it to themselves but forget that some of their competition are also doing the same thing.

Your competition is always waiting for one of two things to happen:

1. You give up

2. You play it safe - get left behind

Now as entrepreneurs,

One is less likely. 'Giving up' tends to not run in our DNA.

Two is far more likely. Many entrepreneurs ‘play it safe’ and therefore get left behind by their:

A) Market

Or 

B) Competition

Now ‘playing it safe’ can mean a number of different things.

Playing it safe could mean:

[+] Hoarding your cash without ever investing into assets 

[+] Not investing into advertising because “It’s too risky"

[+] Never attempting change up your advertising strategies (Taking risks with new copy, offers, etc…)

[+] Refusing to pay for help because you think you can “do it on your own” (consultants, coaches, better employees, etc…)

The last one draws into the question of what the time value of money is for you.

The bottom lines is, as soon as you stop innovating, taking risks, and setting the bar, that is when your competition moves ahead and takes the lead.

>> As soon as a gazelle forgets that there can be a lion among the grass is when the lion makes its move.

A moving target is always harder to catch than a still target.

What are the best ways to keep moving forward? How do you continue to build your business?

Empowerment Over Ego

Today's Definition of Women Supporting Women in Social Media Land!!!

I sit back and observe daily.......

• The level of shade thrown constantly
• The hateful competition and the slandering
• The blocking and deleting
• The relishing in other's misery
• The users and opportunists
• The accusations and lack of integrity
• The fact that many of the ones screaming "support" are also the ones doing the backstabbing, blocking and sabotaging...expecting others to bow down and worship them!

·

Then there are those who use quotes from the #bible to justify their indiscretions whenever they can! Not to mention the fake clapping, smiling and passive aggressiveness!

What hurts the most with everything is that these things often come from those claiming to be advocates for "Women Supporting Women!"

It seems like nowadays some sisterhoods are just another glorified way of telling the next woman...."you can't sit with us!"

Yes, this is the new Social Media world we live in!!!

With just one click of a button people have become experts in fields they've NEVER mastered and provide lessons in subjects they've never taken, while God has become the justified reason for stealing work from the competition and tearing down anyone who seems to be doing better than them has become the new mission!

This is now the world we live in!

WE'VE GOT TO DO BETTER my #Queens!

Just my humble opinion!
