 Have you ever been so worried about what you should do that you can't finish what you need to do?  Or have you ever heard things like "I wish I didn't have to go to work today!"  or "God, this day is dragging!"  or "That customer was a pain in the neck!" or "I never do anything fun" or "My job sucks the life out of me!" If you've ever had any of those thoughts -- or heard them from your colleagues -- they may be a bigger problem than you realize!

Remember that thoughts become things no matter what!

Think about ways to drive negativity out of your company and rebuild the sunny optimism that you felt the day you decided to become a business owner.  

At Beyond Common, we're focused on helping you gain clarity and focus in your business and professional life, and one way to achieve that is to make sure you're not wasting time and energy on initiatives that don't produce results.  

Many of us are creatures of habit, and once habits are formed, they can become mundane or just something you do without knowing why, and since the beginning of the Pandemic, many new habits have become routine, including frequent Zoom calls and responding to emails and inquiries long past normal business hours.

I love helping business owners get clarity and focus in their life and  business by using their strengths, to achieve beyond common results.

Today, we're going to share the best secrets to investing in yourself and what the most successful business owners and leaders do to get and maintain their competitive edge. The  topic of what's that next big thing for business owners is essential to your success.

“Diamonds are formed under pressure,” Tracey explains, describing some of her early career setbacks as better than a “Harvard MBA.”  She also shared another important lesson – “Numbers don’t lie, but people do.”  The beauty industry is filled with creative and thoughtful individuals, but many don’t devote enough time on the financial aspects of the operation as an actual business.  

Tracey’s training systems provide important tools for businesses to focus on critical tasks that must be completed by team members.  “You just can’t assume people know the basics,” Tracey explains, “so we have learned to always focus first on this is what we do here.” “Sense is not common and there is no need to pretend that it is.”

If you're going to come out of this stronger than the way we went into this whole pandemic situation, then we want to create space for your personal wellness and  create business systems that keep you thriving so that we can scale our businesses.
 
You will need to put into practice all the things on this top 10 list so you won't become one of the failed statistics.

Definitely start with the top 10 list that we just went over.

Start with one that you feel like would be easiest for you.

You're more likely to continue to do the other 10 on the list. If you start with one or two that are pretty easy for you, then you'll have  some success to celebrate and it'll make it easier for you to do all of them. Let's get one done so we can start to celebrate you!
