“Why The Worst Thing That Can Happen Is For Your Business To Succeed!”
TALK SHOW EPISODE NOTESThis is the series, SELF-EMPLOYMENT ECSTASY™! I am ecstatic about this series as self-employment has been one of the most enjoyable aspects of my professional life. I aspired to be self-employed from the time I was a child. I shared some of my family role models in prior shows (ancestors that were real estate investors, entrepreneurs, self-employed attorneys, etc.). I love the art of creating something from nothing whether it is a short story, a lawn mowing business, a global billion dollar firm or a single person service. It is all fascinating!
This series is designed for the statistically rare, yet often overlooked, self-employed individual who marches to their own drummer and loves it! This is not a series for people who want to consider future self-employment (aspiring) and how to become self-employed. This is a series for existing self-employment individuals. A very small number of people are self-employed ‘full-time’ (not the best term but it does convey the intended meaning). Due to the higher levels of happiness for self-employed individuals, this series in entitled, SELF-EMPLOYMENT ECSTASY™! This episode is, “Why The Worst Thing That Can Happen Is For Your Business To Succeed!” In this show we discuss A Stone* of Solutions™ including: 1) Judgment suffers (e.g., I’ll trust my gut). 2) No one (or almost none one) wants to hear about any of your real problems in life (“Must be nice…”). 3) Ego inflated. 4) Need self doubt. 5) Feel restrained by expectations and other people (trying to “top” prior success). 6) Guilt. 7) “Every company needs to find some common enemy upon which to rally the troops. If it can't find such an enemy, it will find the enemy within. This is where the backbiting, the gaming of the system, the convoluting of the mission takes place.” - http://www.informationweek.com/it-leadership/microsoft-a-victim-of-its-own-success/d/d-id/1105435? 8) Develop a past oriented focus instead of future oriented. 9) ”When Alexander saw the breadth of his domain, he wept for there were no more worlds to conquer.” - http://www.pothos.org/content/index.php?page=quotes 10) Revisit our Complacency show: RADIO SHOW/AUDIO PODCAST Solutions...with Courtney Anderson!

(SwCA) Episode 189 - Originally aired 9/12/2014 9:00 AM - SATISFACTION SATURATION™ series - “Have You Already Peaked (is it downhill from here)?” 13) You are NOT “a success” (you just experienced some success). When you fail, you are NOT a failure (you just experienced some failure). Stay consistent in your self image and self definition. 14) Do not surround yourself with people who do not care about you. Be on guard for those seeking to exploit you. Let's discuss whether nothing succeeds like success! *A stone is unit of measure equaling 14 pounds (so we have 14 elements in our one stone of solutions!). |
