<p>While most people will flounder in their business you will slowly gain your Virtual Real Estate (VRE).</p>
<p>Sure, it takes work but every successful business owner and entrepreneur must invest in themselves and develop the skills that the average person does not have or is too lazy to learn.</p>
<p>Success is a choice.  I  hope the video below helps you to connect the dots.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="501" height="405" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/h5NMBYKEwLA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="501" height="405" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/h5NMBYKEwLA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Success does indeed leave clues.  I would encourage you to study these sales funnels including the sales copy on them because they convert visitors into leads and leads into customers and business partners.</p>
<p>Here are the links in case you did not write them down.</p>

<p>Social media is an awesome tool for building relationships but itÂ  can be very time consuming.</p>
<p>Many of the tasks are repetitive and definitely not time efficient.Â  And as you bring on new clients and business partners, they require special TLC (Tender, Love, Care).Â  Otherwise, there can be a lot of frustration.</p>
<p>I have selected several productivity tools that I use almost every day.</p>
<p>You will find them simple and easy to use.Â  They will <strong>save you a ton of time</strong>.Â  You&#8217;ll create free time out of thin air so you can do the important things like building stronger relationships and ultimately <strong>make more money!</strong></p>

<h2>Free Download Manager &#8211; It&#8217;s FREE</h2>
<p>If you are like me you are downloading lots of products or ebooks, clicking and waiting can be a real hassle and a BIG time waster.Â  This little tool will help you use your time more wisely and enhance your productivity.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s called Free Download Manager and it rocks!</p>

<h2>Smart Type Assistant &#8211; $9.95<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1118" title="stabox" src="http://terrypetrovick.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/stabox.jpg" alt="stabox" width="167" height="181" /></h2>
<p>This is one of my favorite tools.</p>
<p>Do you type the same phrases over and over again? Think about all the friend requests you make in your social networks or follow up emails you send to prospects or business partners.</p>
<p>What if you had an easy tool to with a couple of keystrokes would complete a sentence for you or an entire email?Â  How cool would that be?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s an example. When I type the letters: cs</p>
<p>Here is what Smart Type Assistant will type for me&#8230;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s connect in Social Media!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s my info, what&#8217;s yours?</p>

<p>Key features are <em>Clipboard Spellcheck, Autoreplace </em>(expanding short keywords into full phrases), <em>Autocorrect </em>(common typing errors, two initial capitals, and accidental usage of the Caps Lock key), and various operations with the selected text, pasting large text pieces with a hotkey, <em>Clipboard History</em> and much more.Â  You can download at:</p>

<p>Have you had a team member or client who is having a problem on their computer and you wished you could go over to their house but they live across town or across the ocean?</p>
<p>What if you could take control of their computer and show them exactly how to do what you have been telling to do over the phone?</p>
<p>You could reduce frustration and improve productivity!</p>
<p>Team Viewer establishes connections to any computer within just a few seconds.

<p><strong>Tidy</strong> <strong>favorite</strong> organizes your bookmarks!</p>
<p>You can organize your <strong>favorite</strong> links as thumbnails instead of trying to work through plain-text links, which are hard to read through and find.</p>
<p>I have created folders for my major projects then I place my links in them.Â  Some of my folders include these titles: <a title="TheOnlineMLMMastermind.com" href="http://TheOnlineMLMMastermind.com" target="_blank">7 Figure Networker</a>, Social Media networks, My Website Development, Affiliate Stuff, Personal Development, Financial&#8230;you get the point.</p>
<p>Basically any website that you like or want to keep an eye on can be store in one of these easy to access folders on your desktop.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s intuitively organized. I love being able to quickly glance through the list of Web shots to find my favorite sites. With Tidy Favorites, you are not limited to any one browser &#8211; take your bookmarks with you and use them in IE, Firefox, and Opera at the same time!

<p>If you want to host a small online meeting without paying through the teeth then look no further.</p>
<p>Mikogo is a free desktop sharing tool (just like GoToMeeting) full of features to assist you in conducting the perfect online meeting or web conference.</p>
<p>Take advantage of the opportunity to share any screen content or application over the Internet in true color quality with up to 10 participants simultaneously, while still sitting at your desk.</p>
<p>At any point during your free desktop sharing session, you are able to send an invitation to a session participant offering them to take the role of presenter. Upon acceptance the viewing direction will switch, enabling the participant to become the presenter and share their screen. Naturally, you may switch between different presenters as often as required.Â  You can download at:Â  <a href="http://www.mikogo.com" target="_blank">http://www.mikogo.com</a></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>

<p>And that is PERFECT.</p>
<p>If you are like myself and many, many others . . .Â the truth is . . .Â you will not develop your online business right the first time.</p>
<p>We all make mistakes.</p>
<p>In fact, rarely do people accomplish anything right the first time they attempt it.Â  This is called being human; it is part of the fabric of life.Â  It is in the doing, the making of mistakes that we learn many valuable life and business lessons.</p>
<p>When I first got started in my first home business I did it wrong.</p>
<p>Some would say I was a success.</p>
<p>In fact, the CEO of the company said I would be the first person in the company to earn a million dollars.</p>
<p>You see, we had different interpretations of success.Â Â  His was products sales and enrollments.Â  Mine wasÂ  &#8220;Quality of Life&#8221; being with my family.</p>
<p>That year I was awarded &#8220;New Director of the Year&#8221; out of 65,000 people.</p>
<p>An award was not what I was looking for.Â  I was looking for a way that I could be home with my family and create a solid income.</p>
<p>The cost of this award was too much.Â  I had spent too much time away from them.Â  So, I sold my business and moved on to another business.Â  That one didn&#8217;t work out financially so I moved on.Â  And you know what . . . that one didn&#8217;t work out financially either.</p>
<p>I spent three and half years, trying my very best to create a business  so I could create the quality of life I dreamed about.</p>
<p>Was this process frustrating? You bet it was. But, I was not giving up.</p>
<p>I had good intentions and I worked very hard but my thinking, my execution and my choices in companies were simply wrong.Â  My paycheck made that VERY clear.</p>
<p>I had to take full responsibility for my decisions and my results.Â  I knew that if I was going to be a success then it was up to me and only me.</p>
<p>My question for you is . . .</p>
<p>Do you take full responsibility for where you are in your business?</p>
<p>Do you take full responsibility for the quality of the relationships you have in your business and in your personally life?</p>
<p>Most people don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>If that is you.Â  The time has come to create some shifts.Â  No more blaming others. You must look  at the part you play in bad relationships.</p>
<p>One of my coaches told me very bluntly, <em>&#8220;Terry, for things to change, you must change.Â  For things to get better you must get better.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Initially that was a tough pill to swallow.Â  I soon realize that she was right.</p>
<p>I became more determined.</p>
<p>I continued to feed my vision for success.Â  I studied successful people.Â  I studied their habits, their characteristics and then modeled them as best I could.</p>
<p>I did two more things . . . I had laser focus on my goals and I took action.</p>
<p>I gave it my all.</p>
<p>I worked on me.</p>
<p>The result . . .</p>
<p>Today, I have the lifestyle most people dream about. I have created a multi-million dollar business in twelve countries and I  surround myself with high quality people who enjoy helping others, personal growth and skill set development.</p>
<p>My two kids have had two full-time stay at home parents from middle school through high school.Â  They are now both in their twenties.Â  And I&#8217;m proud to say that they are awesome people.</p>
<p>That is the pay out I was looking for.</p>
<p>And it was totally worth all the extra professional work, self-study and personal growth that I had to do.Â  I am not the person I was 15 years ago.</p>
<p>Where are you in your business?Â  What types of people do you attract?</p>
<p>If you are struggling with your business then odds are that you have more growing to do.Â  And that&#8217;s perfect.</p>
<p>Do you have a plan for growing personally, growing professionally, enhancing your skill sets and shifting your thinking?Â  If not, get one right away!</p>
<p>Odds are that you need a good coach and a support network that can help you during these challenging growth times.</p>
<p>Find them.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s your responsibility.</p>
<p>I encourage you to look at your thinking.Â  Realize that your current thinking has created your current lifestyle.Â  And if you don&#8217;t like it then you must change it.</p>
<p>Just know that if I can create these shifts in my life, you can too.</p>
<p>I believe in you . . . lot&#8217;s of people do.Â  It is time for you to show up differently.</p>
<p>Now, watch this amazing video below of people doing it right with perfect execution.</p>
<p>You can bet they didn&#8217;t do it right the first.</p>
<p>But, through a clear vision of what they wanted to accomplish, they have indeed created something pretty amazing.</p>
<p>ENJOY!</p>

<p><strong>I have always said that everyone is in sales. Maybe you don&#8217;t hold the  title of salesperson, but if the<a href="http://www.achievemax.com/blogimages/zig-ziglar1.jpg"><img class="alignright" title="zig" src="http://www.achievemax.com/blogimages/zig-ziglar1.jpg" alt="" width="245" height="220" /></a> business you are in requires you to deal with  people, you, my friend, are in sales. At Ziglar Inc., we fully understand that  anyone on our staff can make a sale and anyone on our staff can lose a sale.</strong></p>
<p>Many years ago our company had a van that displayed our company logo and name  in very large print across the full length of the vehicle. One particular day  the individual driving the van made a bad choice to pass cars on the shoulder of  the highway during afternoon traffic. I cannot tell you how many people that day  came to associate our company name with the arrogant, impatient, illegal  behavior of that one employee, but we got calls from folks who said they were  surprised that someone from our company would behave that way&#8230; and this was  before cell phones existed! The behavior of one, whether it is good or bad,  influences the opinions of many.</p>
<p>When I started speaking full time nearly 40 years ago there was no blueprint  for how to become a public speaker. I didn&#8217;t think of myself as an entrepreneur,  but I was, and I had to use every sales technique I had ever learned to make my  business grow. I shudder to think how diffi cult it would have been to attempt  what I did without my prior years of sales experience.</p>
<p>I had to convince my staff that they were in the business of making a  difference in the lives of people. I wanted them onboard with the idea that  everything we did in our company had the potential to change someone&#8217;s life for  the better. There was no task so small that it could be discounted. There were  no conversations with customers that were not of monumental importance. Until  everyone could see the bigger picture, they couldn&#8217;t truly understand how  vitally important their role in the company really was.</p>
<p>Interestingly, I have met people who believe they can be successful  entrepreneurs without having any true sales skills. I&#8217;m sure there are some who  happen to have such an innovative product that they achieve a level of success  they never dreamed possible, but I ask, what could they have achieved had they  understood how to truly help people get what they need and want? Sales are what  you do for people, not to people.</p>
<div style="padding: 10px; float: right; width: 300px;">
<p style="font-size: 14pt; color: #bba057; font-style: italic;">&#8220;Sales are what  you do for people, not to people.&#8221;</p>
</div>
<p>There are a few indispensible principles and procedures that any good  salesperson must embrace. Honesty and integrity are by far the most important  assets of an entrepreneur. With these two traits in place, a relationship of  trust can be established with both employees and clients. My mother always said,  &#8220;Son, if a man&#8217;s word is no good, eventually he&#8217;ll be no good.&#8221; If you commit to  something, follow through. My surrogate father and childhood employer, Mr. John  R. Anderson, once explained to me, &#8220;You can&#8217;t make a good deal with a bad man.&#8221;  I had no idea at the time how true that statement was, but it has served me well  to remember his wise words. I promise you, there is some money out there that is  not worth having. Be honest. If you have integrity you&#8217;ll have nothing to hide.</p>
<p>Listening, as you&#8217;ve heard before, is so basic it is often overlooked. If you  are so busy thinking of what you&#8217;re going to say next that you can&#8217;t hear what  your prospect or employee is saying, you&#8217;re going to miss your opportunity to  connect to their felt need. If you don&#8217;t know what their perception is, you  can&#8217;t address their issues. You may as well have skipped the whole encounter.  Slow down, focus and pay more sincere attention to what is being said than your  prospect, client or employee expects. You&#8217;ll be surprised at how good listening  creates a feeling of partnership.</p>
<p><em>Prospecting.</em> That word drives fear into the heart of the individual  who doesn&#8217;t believe that selling something to someone is for their benefit and  overall well-being. We all prospect and don&#8217;t even know we&#8217;re doing it. When you  start the dating process, you are actually prospecting for the person you want  to marry. When you&#8217;re interviewing employees, you are prospecting for someone  who will best fi t your needs. When you have a product to sell, you need someone  to sell it to, so you have to go out and find the folks who need what you have.  If you don&#8217;t believe that their lives will be better because of what you have to  sell them, then you are either selling the wrong thing or you are selling it to  the wrong person. A true prospect needs your product, has a potential desire to  own that product and has the financial ability to make that decision.</p>
<p>Prospecting becomes second nature when you can implement my quote: &#8220;You can  have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get  what they want.&#8221; When you are truly interested in other people, you will learn  what they are interested in and if they have a need for your product. If they  like you, and most people like folks who take an interest in them, they&#8217;ll help  you find people who do need what you have to sell, even if they don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>You must be able to easily explain what you sell and easily identify who buys  what you sell. If you can&#8217;t tell anyone those two things in a few simple  sentences, you aren&#8217;t in the right business. You must also be able to identify a  need. I know these suggestions sound like &#8220;a given&#8221; for the sales pro, but I  have found that entrepreneurs who haven&#8217;t studied the art of selling and don&#8217;t  yet understand how vital this skill is to their growth potential need clarity on  these basic ideas.</p>
<p>Mastering sales techniques, principles and procedures should be the first  skill set entrepreneurs aspire to acquire. Good business starts on the inside,  in your home office, with the folks you need to believe in you and what you are  trying to accomplish. If your team isn&#8217;t on your team, you&#8217;re in big trouble.  The belief in the value of what you do or sell has to be so strong that everyone  who comes in contact with a customer exudes confidence in the company and the  product. When that is the case, everyone is prepared to help in the sales  effort. If everyone in your company is taught to actively prospect, listen with  true interest to the other person and has an honest desire to help them get  their needs met, then I can honestly say that I will not only see you at the  top, I&#8217;ll see you over the top!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div align="left" style="float:left;padding:0px 5px 5px 0px;"><a name="fb_share" type="box_count" share_url="http://terrypetrovick.com/personal-development/leadership-development-personal-development/there-is-something-to-be-said-for-new-beginnings/"></a></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">There is something to be  said for new beginnings. It is the perfect time for reflection, followed by  forward thinking and goal setting. For me, it is a time for consideration of  what is working and not working in my life, and what I wish to change. I also  understand that if I want to change things in my life, the only way is if I  change.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">So, I have developed a  mantra for the upcoming year. There is no copyright; feel free to steal it, if  you wish.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">THINGS ARE IN LINE FOR  2009!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">This works on so many  levels. To know me is to know that I stand for possibility. But with possibility  comes responsibility. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Change is very difficult  for most of us, but there are many things I know beyond a shadow of a  doubt.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I know that I am a child  of God. I know that I was placed here on earth to spread the message of healing.  And, I know that each one of us was born with an innate intelligence that is  programmed for health and well-being.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">The question has  everything. So my question to you is, &#8220;Do you want to be healthy or  sick?&#8221;</span></span></p>
<p><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">If your answer is  healthy, you need to read on to find out if you are truly on the right path. </span></span></p>
<p><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Health can be defined as  the cells in our body functioning in a state of balance or  homeostasis.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">If you are genetically  programmed to move toward health, who is responsible for providing your system  with the building blocks for proper genetic expression?</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">The reality of the  situation is that healthy people make healthy choices and sick people make sick  choices.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">In 2009, I am committed  to educating my patients and the people of our community to make healthy  choices.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Treating the effects of  poor lifestyle choices with drugs and surgery is asinine, ludicrous and a form  of genocide. This is what we are doing as a society, however. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">The TV is filled with  examples of people drinking beer, eating chili dogs and sucking down french  fries and then taking antacids to help their system cope. Is this a wise  choice?</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Each human being on this  earth is an ecosystem. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Please give me one  example of a situation in which human intervention into an ecosystem actually  caused improvement. There isn&#8217;t one. It doesn&#8217;t exist.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Only two things cause  sickness and disease and move us away from health: toxicity and  deficiency.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">If a plant is wilting,  the first thing we ask is, &#8220;Does it need water?&#8221; So when a human is wilting  (sick or diseased), why would we treat it differently than other parts of our  ecosystem. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Humans are not dying  because they don&#8217;t take enough medication or haven&#8217;t had enough surgery. Humans  are dying because they are deficient and/or toxic. The body doesn&#8217;t make stupid  choices; <span style="text-decoration: underline;">we do</span>.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">There is no such thing as  pathology; only pathological environments. There is no such thing as a  pathological medical condition; only adaptive physiology. We are not born sick.  Our physiology is an expression of our environment (or in certain cases, our  parent&#8217;s environment). Whenever there is a stressor to our body, we go  through four stages: 1. Alarm 2. Attempt to adapt 3. Fatigue 4. Death</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Eating pills is a  lifestyle choice just like chiropractic is a lifestyle choice. The question  becomes whether our choices are driving us toward homeostasis or away from  it.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Chiropractic is not about  treating symptoms and/or disease. Chiropractic wellness care is about driving  the human being toward homeostasis; therefore chiropractic is an intelligent  lifestyle choice. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Are the choices you are  making today moving you closer to homeostasis or driving you away?</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Chiropractic works 100%  of the time because it is always moving the body toward homeostasis.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Isn&#8217;t it time to do  something that is good for you? How long are willing to put your health  off?</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Your temple is on fire.  Don&#8217;t blame the fire department for water damage. My challenge to you is to do  something different in 2009. Quit fueling the fire of sickness and disease and  start fueling the fire of health and wellness.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><span>Chiropractic care isn&#8217;t  just for people with pain. Chiropractic care is for everyone.</span></span></p>
