Learn or hone a skill daily

Business success, like medical diagnostic success, is based on science + art. Experimentation also advances business and medical research. Set aside some time every day to look at acquiring a new skill or honing an old one. Today I did a video from Click Track Profit about list building. It was a great start in this area. I also designed a new banner for my website and I'm tracking hits from it. These 2 things took less than 15 minutes but gave me food for thought to consider all day.

Don't rest on previous success or regret past mistakes. Keep moving and learning.

I worked with an inspirational researcher who at the age of 94 got a 5 year research grant to look at big data. He looks 60 and his mind is razor sharp, so don't let your age hinder you from achievement.

Collaboration Works

Today in the 2010's we need to collaborate more than ever. Competition at all costs is a 20th century paradigm which is over it's best by date. Successful businesses partner and collaborate with other businesses who complement their own offerings.

Don't fight over dividing the pizza (competition) but rather bake more pizzas (collaboration).

The Business Life

I'm a big believer in growth. Life is not about achievement, it's about learning and growth, and developing qualities like compassion, patience, perseverance, love, and joy, and so forth. And so if that is the case, then I think our goals should include something which stretches us.

Jack Canfield

Being in business is all about learning and growth. We grow when we fail and grow when we succeed. Every day in business is a day to learn something new. Keeping up to date in business stretches you when you set stretch goals.
