  • Why You Need a Goals List
    2023/08/19
    One of the best ways to create a complete vision of what success is for you is to create a comprehensive list of everything you dream of accomplishing. This is a powerful opportunity to go BIG. As Michelangelo said, "The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark." By creating a vision of your ideal business or even ideal life, you have put your subconscious brain to work on achieving those goals even while you sleep. In this episode, we will discuss going deep, why your list should be 101 items long, and all the different aspects we can cover. The types of customers you want to work with. The ideal equipment and systems for your business. Even what retirement looks like for you and the people working with you. Plus, so much more.   Learning about Small Business has never been this easy! Connect with Aaron Montgomery to learn more about fueling YOUR passions now!

  • Creating Positive Anchors
    2023/08/12
    As business owners, calm can instantly turn to chaos. The supplies don't arrive correctly, employees don't show up, or any number of other things can upend us. You need a strategy to get back into the "zone" as soon as possible. When we are calm and focused, we can trust our instincts, make decisions faster, and accomplish more of the right projects. From Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), there is a concept called anchors. The anchor serves as a reminder or a trigger that puts you into a certain state of being. In this episode, Aaron will walk through some steps you can take to create positive anchors that you can reference back to when you need to get out of the chaos.   Learning about Small Business has never been this easy!

  • From Stasis to Action
    2023/08/05
    Zig Ziglar famously said, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." In the years that Aaron has supported small businesses, action has been the common missing link for most small business owners. Many small business owners think that consuming and staying in their comfort zone by doing busy work is action, but that is stasis. How can we get into action and out of our comfort zone? The initial steps are always the most challenging as they get the ball rolling, but soon the ball will be rolling downhill nearly on its own. In this episode, we will talk about intentional action and taking those first steps that might seem scary. Remember F.E.A.R. is just an acronym, so join us and learn more.   Learning about Small Business has never been this easy! Connect with Aaron Montgomery to learn more about fueling YOUR passions now!
