Professional Swagga: GET DOWN TO BUSINESS!!!!

Make a schedule and stick to it. Consistency is the key to success.
Most of us have full-time jobs in addition to our other business ventures. Always dedicate at least 2-3 hours a day to fulfilling your commitment to yourself. You are the only one who will secure your future.

Don’t be afraid or too proud to ask for advice. People often think that someone else who is already successful in their chosen arena is too busy or unwilling to talk. That’s not always the case. Pick as many brains as you can, just filter out what you can use and apply it.

If you have a significant other, have them help you come up with new ideas. They may overhear you talking and have positive ways to help that you hadn’t thought of, plus they bring a fresh perspective. You’d be surprised how many great ideas are thought of in the bedroom. J

Don’t let anyone discourage you from following your vision. You (and your partners) are the only ones who can clearly see where you want your business to go. Negativity breeds doubt. Stay confident!

Allow room for change. If your original idea doesn’t work, develop more and

more so that you can try to always be prepared. Often you have to make last minute decisions that you have minimal time to think about. If you have a Plan B, C, and D, chances are that you won’t be under as much pressure as you could be.

Stay humble and remember the people who helped you along the way. Make sure you don’t discriminate against anyone. It really will come back to bite you later. KARMA!
Stay focused and NEVER QUIT! So many great ideas suffered because they were abandoned when it looked like failure was imminent. People tend to bail out when they think they aren’t doing as well as their goals have projected. Commit yourself to being in it for the long run. Nothing great is accomplished without hard work!
