To help you to get in the best place to make a success of 2012 I’m running a 2 part f’ree webinar series in January designed to develop leadership:

Part 1: Get ready to  MAKE IT HAPPEN in 2012

Part 2: Just DO IT! 

My message is:

“Don’t wait for your business to grow to develop as a leader, develop as a leader to ensure it grows!”

From tomorrow, I will upload a blog a day for 4 working days, which will clarify what leadership is for the small business owner and how your leadership is crucial for making a success in 2012 and beyond.

To give you a taster, I thought I’d start by giving you my definition of “leadership” for the business owner:

“Leadership is about creating positive purposeful change, 
within yourself, and your business, for your t’eam and customers, 
in your life and ultimately within the world” 

It’s all about creating change in one way or another.  What changes do you want to make this year in all of these areas to move you closer to your success ideal?

CLICK HERE to find out about a free 2 part webinar series this January designed to “Get you ready to MAKE IT HAPPEN in 2012″ and then just “Just DO IT!”

In 2011, were you frustrated with your progress?  Did you ever feel overwhelmed or overworked but not necessarily doing the things needed to move forward?  Did you ever lack focus and direction?  Did you find you had low motivation or confidence at times?  Did you experience “feast and famine”?  Did you work “in” not “on” your business, and go around like a headless chicken?  Did you ever feel stuck in a rut?!

If you have experienced any of these, the chances are you have spent a certain, maybe even significant, amount of unwanted time PROCRASTINATING!  So, have you?

Alternatively you may not think you procrastinated as you could have been busy, but have you been busy working on the things that will help you to move forward?

CLICK HERE to register for 2 powerful webinars in January designed to help you move from Procrastination to Proactivity!

To remind you, procrastination is when you put off essential or critical tasks!  It comes to play with tasks you don’t want to do, don’t enjoy doing, or are convinced you simply cannot do.  As a small business owner you are likely to have to do many things that take you out of your comfort zone, so it’s not a surprise if you procrastinate.  But it has to STOP if you want to succeed.

Now over the last quarter of 2011 I ran a marketing campaign to encourage business owners not to procrastinate when it comes to generating new business. The reaction was amazing!  Procrastination is a major issue out there, and not just with new business development!

I’m now on a mission to help business owners to turn procrastination into proactivity in 2012 because procrastination will not create success and grow your business, PROACTIVITY will.  Equally I want to help business owners to stop just doing stuff and start doing the right things to progress significantly.

Therefore, I’m running a 2 part f’ree webinar series in January, designed to KICK START the year.  CLICK HERE to register.

Register once and you will automatically receive instructions for the first one and you will receive details on the second one nearer the time.  If you can’t attend either or both but are still interested, register anyway as a recording will become available.

Part 1: Get ready to  MAKE IT HAPPEN in 2012

11 January, 1-2pm

Find out what it takes to get in the best possible position to really make the most of your next year.

As I said, register once and you will automatically receive instructions for the first one and you will receive details on the second one nearer the time.  If you can’t attend either or both but are still interested, register anyway as a recording will become available.

To your success in 2012…..

How often do you focus on something like going through your emails rather than the more critical stuff like calling a potential customer?  Or if you are going through a particularly difficult time you may take this to the extreme and be doing anything but work to avoid the really critical things you must do!!!!

The effects of procrastination may not be so simple and it could be one of the biggest challenges you will have to overcome to succeed and grow your business.

Before I say any more check out this hilarious video by Elen Degeneres on procrastination………………………

Isn’t that funny….how do you see yourself in that?  Isn’t it good to laugh about it!

For some reason we have an emotional reaction when we have to do something we don’t want to do, don’t enjoy doing, or are convinced we simply cannot do.  As a small business owner you are likely to have to do many things you don’t want to do, don’t enjoy doing, or are convinced you can’t do, so it’s not a surprise if you procrastinate.

What areas do you procrastinate the most?

A little bit of self analysis in this area is really useful.  Really self evaluating and questioning your feelings and actions around a task is the first step to stop procrastinating and behaving more proactively in the areas that most significant to your success.

Procrastination will be no more common than in sales and new business development.  This is an area that many business owners don’t want to do, don’t enjoy doing, or are convinced they can’t do.  Even when you have a huge amount of experience in sales like me, you can still fall into this trap.  But we don’t have to stay there!

Watch out for my blogging series next week on 3 mistakes business owners make in generating more customers – all are linked to procrastination.
