Live Your Abundant Life

  Vishal Mandaviya The first time I saw a work like the above, it just blew me away. With such intricacies and powerful colors, I couldn’t even imagine how someone had thought of such a thing. Much less created it. After I saw an artist create the painting, my respect changed … to their accuracy and how they used this abstraction to evoke emotions. I’ve realized that this applies to business too! Much of what we do might seem like magic, but that’s not where the skill lies. Instead, it’s about having a process which makes what you do reproducible. There are certain things you can do and say which dramatically improve the chances that who you touch through your business will come away satisfied. Even ecstatic. But that takes time, trial and error, seeing what works and what doesn't. It takes building trust from time in business and transparency, which also takes time, lots of time.

What do we choose as the stable foundation of our business? These are your bedrock, your unshakable foundation. But how do you bring them to life – not just idealistic sayings up on the wall. You’ll soon be leading an organization which stands on your core values and principles.
