What? You're Trying to Build Your Business Alone?

Congratulations on making the decision to either begin or build your own business! Because of people like you, our country will continue to be one of the greatest on the Earth, providing resources and jobs for generations to come.

May I strongly encourage you to not do everything on your own? Like most people you might be working on your own for two common reasons. 1. You are on a learning curve and are exploring your options 2. You want to maintain control.

Did you know that by failing to access outside resource, consultation and support that you are actually out of control, and not in control. Sure, you may be doing everything and know exactly what's going on in your business, but you are not growing like you can, and if you are not growing, you are falling behind. Falling behind in energy, finances, ideas and rest - not to mention time for family and friends.

A life or business that is not growing, but is dying, or barely surviving is actually spinning out of control. You are just too close to notice the tail spin.

The greatest gift that you can give your business, yourself and your family, is education. Learn what your options are. Learn where your resources are. Learn your legal rights. Learn where your capital comes from. Learn how to manage your time...etc.

Okay, a bit overwhelmed? Here's another gift - take it one step at a time. What do you need NEXT? Not what do you need a year from now - what do you need NEXT?

A tremedous resource that is available to you is IBI (Income Builders International). A healthy organization of entreprenuers, investors, consultants and creatives who there to educate you and support you in ways you can only begin to imagine. This amazing organization has been the greatest gift I've ever given to myself and my family.

Make Life Easier - Do the Obvious

Have you ever seen a small child try to lift a heavy object? Believe as he may, the child will struggle and strain, moan and groan, totally convinced that he can lift the heavy object.

Dad comes along and easily lifts the item and puts it where the child was trying to move it. For the child, no matter how convinced he was that he could do it, he just couldn't. For Dad, it was a piece of cake.

We don't change much as we grow older. Especially if we are entrepreneurs. It takes nerve to go against the grain and begin a business or work from home. Money is tight, so it makes sense that you will just have to do everything... even lifting the heavy objects.

Smart entrepreneurs have figured out a way around doing everything themselves. Its called networking. Many moan that they just don't have time to meet new people. Time is money! The fact is, that how you spend that time is money. Not time itself. You can spend hours trying to lift something heavy, or ... you could find someone who knows how to lift it and trade services. Not everything has a price tag - to other entrepreneurs, your services are like gold, and visa versa.

An accountant might want to build a web site and a web designer might need an accountant for instance.

Give yourself a gift ... lean to your strengths and never lean to your weaknesses. Let someone else do it!

Remember - "If its not your genius - its not your job."
