When Things Work Like They Should

Do you ever notice how one thing can become many? It seems with starting something new, the most simple over looked item can quickly turn into two or more problems.One thing I've learned from trial and error(lots of errors) is to perform a complete test run. If your implementing a new process be sure to run all the way through at least three times and have a process for dealing with problems that may arise. This can apply to calling scripts or new software as well.Three test runs or calls wont take that long and can help immensely in the long run.

Four things to help you suceed in business

Last Sunday in church my pastor Jim Graves delivered a sermon entitled "A Little Help". In it he talked about the people Jesus asked to go with him.Then a relation to business was made. In any business there are four things you need to succeed.The first is an expert. Followed by a role model, cheerleader and a techie. The point is not to let your ego get in the way. If you ask for help you have a better chance of success . You can not have all the answers all of the time.

I'll get around to it

How many time have we all thought that we would "get around to it" at sometime and never quite made it, or started and stopped due to some pressing need? Inventorys are a lot like that , so many times the value isnt realized until there is a need.Some insurance agents even perform an inventory for their clients. At the time of a loss the last thing you want is the heartache of trying to figure out exactly what you had. Not only will you be prepared if you have an inventory but you may realize you have excess items you know longer need.Wouldnt it be great to sell them and get some extra spending money?
