Celebrate Little Wins

Monday, July 7, 2008

Want to have more wins? Then celebrate the little ones that you get! You might have read a few blogs ago about my struggle with finding a home for an ongoing article (then blog) about tax strategy and asset protection for Docs. The blog then points to www.lesstaxfordocs.com. The first two magazines that I had [...]

There are a couple of books that have really changed my thinking recently about the future of business. One is “Meatball Sundae” by Seth Godin. I’m doing a Learning Circle on this over at the First Class Lounge Forum on TaxLoopholes.com. There were literally hundreds of walk-away ah-ha’s that I had from this book. [...]

I didn’t post yesterday not because I didn’t have anything to say, but because I had TOO MUCH to say and couldn’t focus. That’s a common issue for me, though. I think it has something to do with being a big QuickStart. **If you haven’t taken your Kolbe test yet, I really recommend it. Everyone [...]

Two months into the project and here’s where we are: Launched www.LessTaxforDocs.com. This is a landing page that comes from a blog I’m doing for a physician’s financial news site. Initially, this was going well. Now, I’ve submitted blog entries and they haven’t been posted (no new activity at the physician’s site) and haven’t gotten an [...]

I stopped watching the news for the most part about 2 months ago. I don’t remember a time where it was ever so filled with doom and gloom. The economic times are strange indeed. When you look at the statistics, we really aren’t that bad. I think the most troubling time period in my lifetime [...]

Game Plan for July

July is typically a lot like June and August for my CPA business - slow. I’ve done this for a lot of years now and we always experience the summer doldrums. As soon as the kids go back to school, though - look out! It’s flat against the wall until next summer. I used to [...]

There is an area in the greater Phoenix area called “Queen’s Creek.” It’s too far from the center of town for me, but it’s a very nicely developed area. There are great schools, parks, good (but chain) restaurants and new houses. About 1 1/2 years ago when the market around here was exploding, a nice [...]

This past week I was approached about a possible joint venture by one of the members of my forum. It was interesting and from what I could see it could be good for my company, but REALLY good for the other company. But, I needed to do some due diligence. That’s when it got a little [...]

I blogged about this on Tax Loopholes a few days ago, but now I have a picture too! Here’s the short version. This past Saturday I spoke at Derek Jarr’s Live Free Seminar. www.livefreeinvestmentgroup.com He has a brilliant formula for bringing real estate agents, investors and deal makers together. For everyone who has gone to a [...]

MLMs - Vent With Me Please

I’ve been a CPA now for about 25 years. In that time, I’ve seen a lot of different biz opps, investment strategies and out and out scams. One of the things people love or hate is MLMs or IBOs or Direct Selling or whatever it’s called. There is almost a kneejerk reaction to them. But, break [...]
