Be a More Successful Business Owner by Owning Your Own Change

By Vito La Fata


Did you know that as a business owner, other people look to you for guidance and as a leader? You may not even be aware that this is happening. But it almost certainly is. That is why it is important to set a good example for them to follow. One area of your life to consider is your health. Are you taking care of your health?

Seriously. Take a look at your health - your body, face, blood pressure, weight, energy and your ability to just move around. Are you truly happy with your current state of physical health? You may feel pretty good, but what if you were attacking your days with just 20, 30 or even 50% more energy than you have today?

If you are aiming for excellence, you are aiming well. It is important to have enough energy to run your business on a high level, play with your kids, have dates with your spouse and even pursue a hobby. The idea is to be able to expend large amounts of energy for short periods of time and then take time to relax and recover.

Great performances come from within. By owning your own change, you become PROactive with your life instead of REactive. It takes focus. The problem in the world we live in is that focus, our undivided attention, is under siege. We have never had so many ways to distract ourselves - email, texting, facebook, twitter, blogging, LinkedIn, TV, and on and on the list could go.

So what you need to do is to develop the habit of delaying quick gratification and instead be content to wait for long term gratification. Do not give up what you want the most for what you want right now. Keep your eye on the end; keep your eye on the prize for which you are working.

This is your time to act boldly and take action in your own life. Go a different way. Get on a different road. Your self esteem will increase, your confidence will rise and your productivity will sky rocket!
