Welcome! Bookkeeper Business Blueprint Bookkeeping Business System - Module 3 Lesson 1: Be the Real You (M&M Series)
Be the Real YOU
Be the Best YOU: Invest in your personal development daily by reading inspiring books, watching positive shows and monitoring what you allow to enter into your field of view each day. Garbage in: garbage out. Great stuff in: great stuff out. Spend time PLANNING your life. Jack Welch, the famed former CEO of General Electric, once said: "Control your own destiny, or someone else will." Stay in control of your own life and destiny.
Be the Best YOU: Avoid the parasites / naysayers / haters in your life. We all have that person or persons who suck the life right from us. You need to surround yourself with people who value the authentic you and don't judge or belittle you. Start each day with positive self-talk. Before you get out of bed, visualize your day being you. See yourself tackling all that you have to get done.
