How To Start A Business Without A Written Guideline

by

Starting a business nowadays has become possible yet complicated at the same time. If you want to build a successful business starting from today, you have all that it takes to do it. You may not acknowledge it yet, however, the proper mindset will show you the proper path.

Knowledge and skills. These are the two primary components of a highly successful webmaster or entrepreneur. A business written guideline? That’s not necessary at all as long as you truly know what you’re doing.

In today’s post, we’re giving you several strategies, tips, and tricks that’ll improve your business startup performance. There are lots of smart people like you who get stuck in planning, strategizing, worrying, and living in the future. To stay productive while launching a business, your entire focus and efforts should be pointed towards the present moment.

1.    Start with True Passion

If you start your business with the wrong reason, you’re hardly going to make it. Most people tell you that “life’s not fair” and that you have to deal with it. However, each of us can decide how we want to live our lives, and that involves the decision of starting our own businesses in order to become financially independent.

But then, most entrepreneurs are trapped before they even begin. Obviously, we have to choose our business niche before starting. It becomes struggling the moment we choose the wrong business and the wrong purpose. Money, financial freedom, and financial wealth are not good enough reasons!

To be truly successful whether you follow a documented business guideline or not, you’ll need to have that passion in you. You’ll find the thing I’m talking about only if you continue looking. Don’t stop for a business idea that sounds “good”. It has to be amazing and perfect. Don’t worry, you’ll definitely know when it arrives!

2.    Acknowledge the Fast and Everchanging Marketplace

Comprehensive business plans are initially designed to help you balance your actions and stay focused. However, a written business guideline is always going to remain outdated. You can’t fully trust what you’ve established in the past because in the past the external conditions were different. If you were to make a decision today, you should carefully assume how the marketplace is doing, how your team is doing, how your actions went in the past, and what you can do best to ensure a positive effect.

3.    Assume Full Responsibility for Everything Around You

Great entrepreneurs become great because they’re responsible for everything that affects both themselves and their business. After all, a startup is a gathering of individuals that aim to achieve a specific purpose through collective effort. You are the leader of your own body and actions and you’re the leader of a company. That means full responsibility!

4.    Promise that You Won’t Stop Until You’re Successful

Make a promise that no matter what, you will not stop pursuing what you have started. There’s absolutely nothing more important than the final achievement. However, you’ll need to stay focused on the journey and less on the result.

As Jana Fardel, Co-Founder at one of the top rated resume writing service, in the US, suggests that “The way you think, act, behave, and work will heavily influence the result, of course, but the result is never the point. You listen to a song because you enjoy it and not because you’re waiting for the end of it.”

5.    Establish What You’re Going After and Be Specific

Not developing a written business guideline doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t establish the direction you’re heading to. Obviously, before you start the engine of your car you have to know where you’re going. Business start-ups are the same. Decide where you want to go, make that clear statement, assume responsibility, commit to staying consistent, and start taking action!

6.    Find Inspiration from Those Who Have Already Won

Everybody’s looking for shortcuts. Again, most people would say that shortcuts are making it even more difficult to succeed. Well, it really depends on what type of shortcuts we are talking about.

Success leaves clues. Therefore, you should start looking for inspiration, motivation, and ideas in other people’s work and achievements. Find someone who has already accomplished what you are trying to accomplish. Look at your competitors, see what they’re doing, put all the information together and learn from the patterns. Lastly, implement all the potentially positive ideas.

7.    Keep Track of Results and Optimize as You Go

Business success doesn’t simply show up and sits with you forever. The startup is the initial phase. Once your business is up and running, it’s essential to keep track of your results on a consistent basis. All the results, whether they’re failures or wins, ultimately mean one thing: feedback.

When something goes wrong, you should immediately identify the causal factor. The action/decision/thought that has influenced your outcome is the most important component that needs to be identified. The cause.

Every time you change the causal factor the results also change. That’s exactly why you should take advantage of different digital marketing analysis tools. Consistently keep track of your results and optimize all your thoughts, emotions, and actions according to all the meaningful feedback you receive.

Takeaways

Starting a business takes time, focus, and work. True work, indeed, as true success demands both hard and smart work. Following guidelines which were written yesterday is not an option. The marketplace changes, the people change, your chances change, and basically everything changes. When you take an action, you schedule a change. When you ignore a phone call, you have produced another change. Therefore, do your best right now, focus on what you have to do today, and never stop improving, so within a certain period you make add your achievements at top resume review and create your perfect CV.

Best 5 Major Components Of Brand Positioning Today

by

The act of crafting a brands offerings so that they are perceived by the consumer in a desirable manner is what brand positioning stands for.

Brand positioning is undoubtedly a prominent brand management activity. The increase in competition today has offered consumers a plethora of brands to choose from. Though there may be some minor product differences, all brands majorly provide similar benefits. In order to create a sweet spot in your consumer’s mind, you need to position your brand wisely.

Each time an individual interacts with your brand, it should be a memorable and a delightful experience. A credible position once created, can have long-term associations with your brand. By shaping consumer preferences, you directly affect brand loyalty, consumer-based brand equity and the willingness an individual has to purchase a brand. A positive image will be the reason for a consumer to choose you over all the competitors in the market.

So what are the elements that help position a brand?

Tagline

Coming up with a tagline may not necessarily be your first concern. Although, neglecting it altogether can be a huge mistake. Taglines effectively help you communicate what is your business all about. A brief and succinct sentence should convey your story and purpose.

Taglines have proved to be important to an extent where a brand standing in the market is highly influenced by it and customers recognize your product by just listening to the tagline. So, let your tagline have a message that sets you apart from the competition.

USP

There is a growing competition between brands and the struggle to reach the highest position today has become extremely challenging. With the advent of so many brands talking about their offerings, it’s important to know what distinguishes you from the others around.

What is it that you offer that users can’t find elsewhere? Ask yourself the necessary questions that will help you identify your USP. Having a clear and distinct composition will be impactful. Your consumers will certainly choose you over the others for their well-being, only if you give them something gainful.

Positioning Statement

One method to ensure people remember you is to craft a brilliant brand positioning statement. Define what you offer, how you offer and why should one select you, in a few catchy words. Design the essence of your company in a sentence or two that shows your focus, determination, and commitment.

A well delivered and believable statement will be the reason for a listener to come back to your brand. If the positioning statement conveys your intended message, it can have a positive impact on the lead generation capability of your business and help to determine how well your products, services or brand as a whole will be received by potential customers.

Communication

You grow your business if you have the ability to sell. A comprehensive understanding of the customer’s needs and effective communication of your company message is what leads to a successful marketing plan. What you convey is what people will perceive about your brand.

When a consumer observes you, they should gain the right experience, leave feeling gratified and have the urge to want more. Understand your target audience and craft your messages in accordance with their needs. Let your word establish trust and make a consumer always consider your brand, before making a choice.

Branding

Branding aids recall. People only select brands they are familiar with. Interact and make your brand visible at multiple places. Reinforcing your message over and over again in a proportionate number will make your audience recollect your brand always. Make use of the digital, traditional and several other platforms to put your message across.

Positive Image

Brands need to create a positive image of themselves in the minds of the consumers. Spreading a happy and positive vibe can draw any consumer closer to your brand. Let your brand be associated with joyful thoughts and create an impact on the consumers. You can find inspiration in this list.

A well-thought and planned composition of the aforementioned elements is what positions a business in the market and also in the consumer’s thoughts. Conduct the necessary research and take the needed time to launch and define your brand.
A negative brand position is harmful and irreversible. Hence it is vital, to take the essential precaution and measures to have a successful brand story. Whatever strategies you adopt, make sure, your brand stays significant amongst the competition and is not just one amongst the many.

So stay happy, have a strong belief in your brand and spread the delight.

How The Antidote for Depression Are Positive Words

by

The thought pattern of people who suffer from depression does not contain positive words. The simple intention of integrating positive words in their thoughts would gradually convince the brain to give up depression patterns. However, this integration process causes a lot of resistance as the brain is very attached to this negative, destructive structure. By negative structure I mean the tendency to interpret an event by linking it to a negative affirmation, thus drawing conclusions or making generalizations which usually lead towards an unfavorable state of mind and spirit.

Are words important in depression?

The depressive people notice very easily the negative comments in a conversation or a text and they do something that is even more dangerous for the brain: they keep these negative words in their mind for longer periods of time. The memorized negative words are reinforced once in a while, either by being formulated again as a thought or by being said to the people around. This rethinking of profound negative words is one of the pillars of the foundation that gives depression its huge power. The other pillar is the resistance to incorporate strong positive words into their thinking.

Depressive people have a high resistance towards considering positive words as extremely powerful for their well-being and happiness. They consider negative words more accurate in expressing the reality and positive words as a lie to oneself. The word “gratitude” for example is highly rejected by the brain of the people who suffer from depression. There are also other positive words with a high degree of optimism that can blast the negative energy of the brain in a couple of seconds: awesome, blissfulness, magic, serenity. These words are missing from their vocabulary and whenever someone expresses them, depressive people consider them a lie, as belonging to a different reality than the one perceived by them. This proves that positive words are not a part of the awareness of depressive people and incorporating such words in their conscious thinking until they become comfortable with using them, will cure these people of depression. Still, this is not an easy task, because depressive people tend to have the brain very attached to their depressive thinking patterns.

How do positive words help depression?

A realistic solution would be to rewire the brain, starting from the level of rational thinking. The best way to do that is by following a therapy such as REBT promoted by Albert Ellis in his book of self-therapy “Guide to a rational living”. Through this type of therapy, the person will have to put under question their most profound negative beliefs, which most of the time are simple sentences that contain an exaggerated negative word. This will give to the person a period in which he will diminish the power of those negative words over his brain and body. Then, the person can incorporate more easily positive words in his thinking until they don’t feel so strange and separated and slowly these words will start to feel very true and comfortable to be used.

As the best known and popular energy clearer and healer Christie Marie Sheldon said: „Truth is light and lies are heavy”, positive words feel light and negative words feel heavy. It was even scientifically demonstrated that negative words contain more information that positive words, but words with more information do not mean that the information reflects the truth. Usually, the lies are scenarios full of alembicated and complex details. People give such complex details when lying because they feel the need to misguide the listener so as to cover the feeling that the story is a lie.  But people who are in touch with their intuition will feel very quickly the lie and tell it like it is. Truth feels light, no heaviness around it.

Depressive people are very attached to this pattern of digging through a lot of information to find the truth. Most of them are not people who base their decisions on intuition. They are not in touch with their intuition and do not consider it to be real and worthy to be taken into consideration when judging things and making decisions. When faced with a situation, they block their intuition that would help them distinguish between truth and lie faster and easier. Thus, they start searching for the truth by analyzing the lies. They find the truth eventually, but the process is heavy, very emotional and the price paid is depression.

How can they find the truth by analyzing the lie?

It happens because they use the duality law, one of the universal laws that govern planet Earth. Lies and truth are two faces of the same coin. Analyzing one side, resolving the puzzle of one side, makes you see the other side, as a reflection of the first side. So the purpose of analyzing the negative side of the coin by depressive people is to find the truth. It is the same purpose as the one that everyone has, to see the truth. Positive thinking people find the same truth but use positive thinking. The only difference is in the way they feel. They feel happiness, not depression. Depressive people do not trust this way of perceiving the truth. And it is understood because only a few years ago science started analyzing how to think positively (See PERMA, the science of happiness, the science of gratitude, the science of blissfulness and awesomeness).

Because people do not know exactly how to think positively, the rules are not clear, they have resistance towards depending on this way of thinking in their day to day activities. At the end of the day, it is about results and finding the truth. If you do not know how to think positively, you cannot reach your purpose and find the truth. So the price of depression is paid for the awareness of the truth.

But this agreement with the Source (Source is a term used very often in spirituality) will soon come to an end. A new price will be negotiated: the price of happiness. People all around the world are beginning to pay the happiness price more and more. You need to be happy and offer happy energy in order to get things. This will be the new order on Earth.

Why do we have this price to pay if the Source is good?

This is an agreement made only for the planet Earth. The „rule” is incorporated only in the matrix of planet Earth, is not a universal rule. Once you enlarge yourself more than Earth’s barriers you become aware that is only on Earth.

Anyway, we got into more spiritual debates than planned, so to conclude, here are some practical solutions.

If you suffer from depression or you know someone who suffers from depression take this into consideration:

  • The state called “depression” has 2 main components;
  • If you eliminate these 2 components you will cure yourself of depression;
  • The 2 components are usage of negative words and lack of positive words;
  • Practical solutions: question very hard your negative words and incorporate positive words in your thinking.

How to question your negative words? 

Notice the negative words that you use. Write down the sentences that contain that negative word. Ask yourself: Why is this true? Where is this written? Where do I know it from? Must this be true? Am I obliged to think that this is true?

How to incorporate positive words in your thinking? 

You incorporate them by learning. Here is a list of positive words to start from.

Comment below and let me know about your struggles with depression, either you were or still are depressed. Or maybe you know someone who is depressed, maybe someone from your family.

My personal experience with depression 

In my case, (Elena, the founder of Positive Words Research) I suffered from depression and someone from my family is under treatment for depression, my mother. One reason for which I stated so many times in this article that depressive people are very resistant to positive words is because I have the experience with my mother. Her brain is very resistant to positive words. She finds positive words useless in life, the same as she finds a lot of beautiful things in this world as being useless. One of the things that depression deprives you of is seeing the beautiful things around you. Depressive people cannot become aware of the beautiful things that surround them in every moment of the life. They are blind to beauty. From time to time they spot beauty and enjoy it but they don’t consider it as a long-lasting reality. For them, beauty lasts for a short period of time.

But we live in abundance! As Wayne Dyer used to say, may he rest in peace: „Abundance is not something we acquire, it’s something we tune into.” And also “Abundance is not the destination, abundance is the way”, similar to what Buddha said, „Happiness is not the purpose, happiness is the way.”

Thank you, reader, for using positive words in your thinking. I love you for this. You do not let depression manifest in your body. You are awesome!

My biggest dream is to introduce the study of positive words in schools all around the planet to be learned by kids before going to faculty. Why? Because positive words are the key ingredient for positive thinking!

Simple and very practical: memorize positive words and start making sentences with them.

Even the negative sentences created with a positive word are powerful. This is one of the reasons why people even give their lives in masses when they incorporate this sentence in their brain: „War for peace”. As peace is a very powerful positive word, the brain focuses more on peace and less on war, paying the price. But as Mother Theresa said: „I will never participate in anti-war demonstrations, but I will always participate in pro-peace demonstrations.”  For peace, people will pay the ultimate price, which is their life, through war. The purpose is the same for all people: the peace, the good, the happiness. Only that the ways to reach these goals are different.

Something that I treasure very much and that I learned from my profession as a financial auditor was: Achieve results because you are evaluated based on your results, but achieve them by doing the right things, with integrity, hard work, and personal ethics.

Happiness will be the right thing to do. Happiness and abundance are the way to do it right. You are worthy to live your life like this!
