Business-Building Action from Terry Brock
I just love you to pieces! I really do! Thank you for reading my post and for your comments, I am thrilled to get such great reviews from so many. This is a post where I want to share with you some ideas thatI don’t share with just anyone.
This is for you, those of you who have raised your hand, took action and said, that you want to hear from me. Thank you! I appreciate you reading, watching the videos I put together, and listening to my audios.
Today I want to share something special with you. I just finished a 4-week, 5-nation tour where I had the privilege and honor to speak several times to many audiences and meet with business leaders to talk about marketing. I was able to talk about what’s working for professional speakers in England and how to build their businesses. I also was able to talk with some wonderful college students in Ireland giving them some insights into the great possibilities which are waiting for them.
Here are some points that can help as you look at the world today:
1. It’s A Big World And There Are A Lot Of Opportunities. I see more opportunities, even in the midst of the “yuck” going on in the news. Just over in Holland, I saw people who were hungry to learn and grow. In Ireland, I saw a people who maintain that vibrant Irish spirit to keep going no matter what happens (and they have been through a lot!) . Over in Holland I saw a people who retain that zest for living that their ancestors had in abundance as they built powerful ships and sailed the world for adventure. In Mexico I encountered a delightful group of professionals who believe in hard work, learning more and more and leveraging technology to the max to benefit their business and others.
2. Think Beyond Your Horizon. It is too easy to only see what is in front of us. By experiencing real people, in real-world situations you get to see what is really happening. I see people in the world today who are concerned when they read about the violence and challenges in the headlines. They are concerned as they see the “knuckleheads” (that’s the world I’ll use here) who are running many of the governments around the world. If you think beyond your own country and world, you see a lot more opportunity. Go to some other countries and help them. Learn their language. Help them to solve their problems.
3. Technology Is A Great Leveler And Provides Empowering Ability. I was able to run my business from just about anywhere on this trip because of the advances in communication and technology. I could conduct video conferences. I could stay in touch with clients and prospects. I could do just about anything I would normally do from home in Orlando, Florida. It was just more interesting doing it from other places. Think about how you can craft and mold your business to be able to do what you need from wherever you happen to be. That gives you freedom and opportunity as never before.
The world has a lot of benefits in store for you. Be willing to take the risk. Push yourself. Reach out and do what is necessary to live your dreams. By doing that, you’ll realize your true potential and ability.
