The Accountability Minute:Business Acceleration|Productivity Anne Bachrach

Today we are talking about Strategy #3 to help you with Personal Change, which is to Clarify your Commitment.
 
Change requires commitment and self-discipline. You won’t always get it right the first time, so you’ve got to find the strength and purpose to get back up and try again. When you are fully committed and all in, you will see a difference in what you can accomplish, then if you are only committed 80 or 90 or even 95%. You’ll find the reward is worth it when you are 100% committed.

Today we are talking about Strategy #2 to help you with Personal Change, which is to Nullify the negatives.
 
Be honest and ask yourself what is it that’s holding you back? What beliefs are you clinging to which prevent you from moving forward? What is the worst possible outcome you could experience from change?
 
Once you take a realistic and logical look at the reasons why you are resisting change, you will find most of them are unrealistic and illogical.  I can’t tell you how many times I was coaching someone about a limiting belief they had and when they finally sucked it up and put on their big girl or boy pants and did what they were afraid of, they wondered why they were so afraid to do it. Everything turned out great and nothing negative happened. The more you do things to overcome the beliefs that hold you back, the easier it gets to do it again and again and again. You too will find out for yourself that you resisting change turned out to be holding you back from even greater success.

Today we are talking about Strategy #1 to help you with Personal Change, which is to Focus on the positives.
 
Change generally results in a positive outcome. Rather than focus on feelings you may be experiencing like insecurity, discomfort, or anxiety, concentrate instead on how the new experience will enhance your current situation.
 
Imagine yourself once the changes have taken place and think about how good they will make you feel. Imagine yourself feeling re-energized, optimistic, excited and exhilarated.  Personally, I like these emotion choices much better than the negative ones, don’t you?

Progress requires change, so we must develop change strategies that reduce our resistance and allow us to view change with a positive and constructive attitude.
 
Although the majority of us initially react to change with feelings of anxiety and disorientation, most of us are able, over time, to respond with a more favorable and positive mindset.
 
After all, 9 times out of 10, change brings about new opportunities to improve our position, our wellbeing, our environment, and our circumstances.
 
Occasionally change is precipitated by destructive, stressful circumstances like divorce, death or natural disasters.
 
When a catastrophic change occurs, most people require time and support to enable them to deal with the grieving process before they can adapt to the new changes that have been thrust upon them. 
 
But like our response to grief, our response to change varies, depending on our inherent qualities and attitudes.
 
So, what coping mechanisms can you put in place to ensure you embrace change with a positive attitude and a sense of excitement in the possibilities?
 
Over the next 5 days we will explore 5 strategies to help you with Personal Change. 
So, Tune in tomorrow for Strategy #1 to help you with Personal Change.

We live in a dynamic and progressive world and progress cannot occur without change. Your attitude towards change determines how you prepare and adjust to it.
 
Change is inevitable. In fact, change can occur so frequently and regularly that in many cases we hardly notice it.
 
We change our hairstyles, our fashions, our relationships, our opinion, or we re-arrange the furniture; all with little or no resistance.
 
So, why do some of us react like a nuclear war is pending when we are confronted with change?
 
Familiarity with our surroundings, our friends and relationships and our working environment allow us to reside safely inside our comfort zone. And comfort equals security.
 
However, large changes require us to step outside our comfort zone, adapt to new patterns of behavior and learn new techniques for survival.
 
Change makes us uneasy. Even when a change seems logical and reasonable, we ask ourselves, “Why can’t things remain as they are? I liked it just the way it was.”
 
But that kind of thinking is self-delusional; we all want to change, whether we admit to it or not. Sure, there are people who say they are happy the way they are, but they are not being truthful with themselves.
 
We all want to be better, faster, stronger, richer, more powerful, happier, more fulfilled; the list goes on and on.  So, why then do most of us resist change?
 
Tune in tomorrow when we continue to explore the concept of Change and how we might get better at dealing with it, so it can have a positive effect in our life.

What are the Characteristics of the People You Really Want as Clients? 
 
Think about this: Who are the clients you like the best and enjoy serving? It’s okay to tell the marketplace, these are the people who are best serviced by you and your firm. It is also okay to disengage from those who you don’t enjoy being around and every time they call, you have a negative reaction. Life is for enjoying, don’t waste time with people you don’t enjoy or want to be around. Imagine your firm with only clients who provide you the revenue to life the lifestyle you want, and you actually enjoy servicing. 
 
This thinking becomes very important in many ways. One way is that when you ask your existing clients, friends, peers, associates, centers of influence, and strategic alliances for referrals, you can tell them exactly what you are looking for which helps them think of people who might fit your profile.
