What is the Value?

Whether you are selling, motivating, leading, parenting, exercising, marketing or just making things happen, you HAVE to know, what is the value.  What is the value of what you are trying to achieve for you, your team, your family, your friends, whoever is on your side.


Why would someone want to buy your product or service? What problem will it solve for them or what benefit will it give them?
Why would your team member want to exhibit the behaviour you want? What do they get for it or what do they avoid?


Sales and motivation is all about value.  Show them the value and you can't help but be a success.


So what is the Value?

Does It Match The Plan?

Happy Tuesday!

You may be thinking "But I usually get this on a Monday, what's happening?"
My commitment is to send the Get More Goer every Monday (except when I forget and then it is a Tuesday).  But today I didn't forget, I chose to send it Tuesday.  For many states in Australia, this Monday was a public holiday.  I thought it more relevant and timely if you got this on the Tuesday and not the Monday.

This is what a Plan gives us.  It gives us the facts we need to vary from the plan. We can evaluate what is the more important thing to do, what is on the plan or the other item that has arisen.  This is why planning your week and your day is so important.  It actually helps you be more flexible and know the cost of your flexibility.

John Lennon famously said, "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans."

So does what you are doing today match the plan?
