Badly delivered content can do more damage to your business than sharing no content at all. It takes away your credibility and affects people’s perception of you.

It’s easy to get scattered whenever you start writing up a business plan outline. Maybe this is your first crack at it and you aren’t sure which way to begin so you start writing about your business and everything you have to offer. If you’re doing just that so far, then that’s good! Keep that part up! Not a whole lot of people will tell a business plan writer that either, to babble on and on about what their business is and does and aspires to do. I recommend starting off discussing what you do know, rather than struggle your way through the seven steps that is the business plan process trying to put together an answer even if you aren’t sure of it.
Running MyCorporation has been one of the most exciting and fulfilling experiences in my life. I love having my own business, being able to watch it grow and develop – it’s like having a third child, minus the screaming and diapers. My experiences with MyCorp are also why I always encourage anyone with a good idea to take the plunge and become an entrepreneur. Unfortunately it isn’t as easy as saying “All right then!” and filing some paperwork – business ownership brings about plenty of apprehension. My encouragement is typically retorted with a quick “Well, what if I get sued?” or a “But what if I never make it off the ground?” These are serious concerns, but there are ways to help beef up the legal protection around yourself, your family, and your assets.
Challenge yourself to set three goals today—even small goals. The point is to feel the shift in your confidence level as you achieve them. Give that gift to yourself! Self-confidence gives you the ability to carry out your daily tasks with energy and enthusiasm. With a few small achievements under your belt, they soon multiply and create a new confidence from deep within you.
Challenge yourself to ignore that snooze button for seven days straight—when you find yourself rationalizing why you shouldn’t do something…instead…just do it. You will be amazed at your ability to move toward your goals in a very short period of time.
Successful people don’t hit their snooze buttons, and neither should you!

by Erica Cosminsky Ok, before you smack me, let me set this straight. I LOVE my VA. Couldn’t live without her. It’s the “term” and the psychological implications that I have issues with. 1. Like the term “secretary”, which has a lot of baggage and has become uncouth, the term assistant has latched on […]
