Create A Cash Flow Show

Just a short introduction:

My name is Joe Hauckes and I have a Computer Consulting business called My Computer Back in Service and I also have a Blog named Working at Home on the Internet where I share some of my experiences of, well, working at home on the internet.

Thanks Deb

I am honored to be invited to write helpful articles on Create A Cash Flow Show as one of the resident experts to enhance your online experiences to guide you through some of the difficulties of doing business on the internet.

My purpose for being here

Not every problem needs to be addressed by some unknown “professional” sitting at a help desk in some unknown location. Too many of them don’t really care if your problem is solved as long as they get paid. Many of the little tweaks and adjustments as well as some hardware and software installations can be performed by you, with a little helpful information. This endeavor is intended to give you some pointers on things you can accomplish yourself - without outside help.

I will be presenting various tips and tricks for fixing problems I have found while working with and on computers throughout my career as a Computer Operator and Consultant. But new things pop up all the time. So, if you have any questions that haven’t been addressed in any posts, please use the comments section to let me know.

I hope you find some of the things I offer helpful in your endeavours toward success.

I was recently interviewed twice by Raven Blair. Once during her weekly podcast and internet radio broadcast and then again this week on her AM radio show “Careers From The Kitchen Table”. Careers From The Kitchen Table is a live radio show for home business professionals and want-to-be entrepreneurs. Our topic for both interviews was “Maximizing Fairs And Expos“. This audio teaches you how to use fairs and expos as a lead generation system for your home business. A solid direct sales business is always prospecting for new customers unrelated to the existing client base.

The “Why?” question is useful when we are facing challenges in attaining something we want or making changes. I have learned that when I want something and cannot reach my goal, it is frequently because I am doing something to sabotage myself subconsciously. Often times we say one thing and think another. Someone who is in a weight loss program may say “I am reducing my weight” but think “It is not possible.” In business our goal may be to achieve a certain level or promotion, and in our mind we say “So-and-so can do it because she lives in a better place. It won’t work here in Wisconsin.” This conflict between thought and action creates an impossible dilemma. You cannot accomplish what you do not think possible.

Ask the right questions

When you have something you really want to do, one way to determine if your thoughts match your words is to ask these questions.
• How much do I want this?
• What will it get me? (Visualize your end result vividly. See yourself there.)
• What is it worth? (Financially, emotionally, and to your family.)
• Is it worth the effort? (My experience with this is very straightforward: I will only put effort into something that I really want.)
See what you’ll see, hear what you’ll hear and feel what you’ll feel. When you visualize that outcome (stopped smoking, achieved ideal weight, earned a certain amount of money, got that promotion, asked that person out on a date, etc.) make the colors bright and really experience it in your mind as you think it would be.

After that, check for a secondary gain. By that, I mean check to see how you will benefit if you do NOT make the change. Here are examples.

• You must want to eat more than you want to lose weight. The benefit of not reducing your weight is that you get to eat as much as you want.
• You must like the benefit of smoking more than you want to stop. The benefit of smoking may be more breaks at work, or not suffering from withdrawal symptoms.
• The benefit of not moving up to the next level is that you do not have to make as many customer calls.
• You want to take the dog for a walk more than making host calls.
Once you’ve taken care of motivation and secondary gain, it is time to check for belief. Ask yourself the following questions:
• Do you want this? Did your subconscious mind say “You bet.” Or did it say “Sorta”?
• Is this possible for you? “It is too hard” or “I can do it”?
• Do you know how to do this? “It’s easy.” or “I might be able to figure it out.”?
• Do you deserve this? Did you think “I really shouldn’t or can’t do it.” or “It is worth the effort.”?
Then notice your own immediate gut-level thoughts as you say these questions out loud. Be honest with yourself and listen closely to what your mind is telling you. Does it seem like a congruent response (i.e. you really believe it) or are you unsure?

The Process Takes Time

This whole process takes some quiet reflective time for yourself. You deserve it! Take an afternoon and figure out why you have not achieved your goals. The simple way to start a mind shift is through positive affirmations. Incorporate statements into your life to overcome the negative thoughts that you just discovered. Incorporate daily readings into your life from The Secret, Think and Grow Rich and other motivational books which stimulate positive thought.
You can and deserve to reach your goals both in business and in your personal life. Take steps to change your future. Believe that you can succeed – it’s the good old New Age technique of affirmations.

The first step to having a balanced business is to have a balanced life. Are the priorities in your life balanced with your time commitments? When I was working in the corporate world, I was out of balance emotionally so I was unable to find balance in my personal life or my business world. The following exercise was one of the instrumental influences that convinced me to take the step of leaving my 30-year career. Now as a business and life coach I frequently use this exercise as a tool in getting new clients on track with their priorities in life. Set aside some personal quiet time to consider the following questions without interruptions. Give yourself some focus and time for deep reflection.

What are your priorities?

Make a list of the top 10 priorities in your life. This is a list of what your emotional priorities are. Do not put things on the list because you think they are supposed to be there. For example you may feel that a “good” son or daughter would prioritize their parents and emotionally that is really not the case. Examine your heart and only put true personal priorities on your list. Examples may include:

• Children
• Home business
• Hobbies
• Health
• Social life
• Growing a sales team
• Recreational events
• Education

Initially just put the priorities down in any order, until you have 10 on the list. Be specific: depending on who you are, the list may include your important people’s names, and your business and other passions. Mine may include my personal mission to make a difference in the way kids eat now and into the future. My health is always a priority to me. After completing the list, number the items in the order of importance. Number one will be the most important and number ten will be the least important. When you do this from your heart, it will take time. Do not expect to be done in 5 minutes.

What Takes Up Your Time?

When you are happy with your list of heartfelt priorities, set the list aside and do another list. This one is how you spend your time. What are your top 10 time commitments, in no special order? Again, it is important to be honest here. If you spend 30 hours a week driving kids around, then it goes on the list. The time commitments may include:

• Work
• School
• Internet surfing
• Going to the gym
• Running kids around
• Home business
• Hobbies
• Etc.

As before, just list them as they pop into your head. Then when the list is complete go back and number them by actual quantity of time spent on each one. Number one will be the most time spent on an item and number ten will be the least time spent. So maybe work takes 50 hours per week. That may be number one in time spent. If you run the kids around 30 hours per week, then that may be number 8 on the list.

Is Your Life Congruent?

After you have put your heart and thought into creating these two lists, it is time to compare them. When you have a balanced, congruent life, the numbers on the priority side will balance or match with the numbers on the time side. A congruent life might, for example, have the number one priority be the kids and have the number one time commitment be quality time with the kids. What I found when my mentor put me through this exercise 8 years ago was that my “job” took up the number one spot on the time list. And it was no longer on my priority list at all. There was a time when my career was top on the list, but after 30 years of successes, my passion was gone. My life coach at the time assisted me in seeing that it was time for me to move on, grow, and become more balanced in all areas of my life. It is impossible to be happy, content or satisfied with what you are doing when your time is out of balance with your priorities.

Is Your Business and Life Balanced?

I frequently use this exercise in a coaching environment. Many people find that the most important things in their life are frequently the least amount of time on the other list. This inconsistency or imbalance results in stress and ineffectiveness in life, both personally and from a business point of view. Is your business a top priority? Are you giving it the time commitment it deserves? Are the kids or grandkids the most important priority in your life? Do you prioritize quality time, or just spend time with them when running errands? When you see that your two lists are out of whack, take the initiative to make the changes that will allow you to live your life to its fullest. So how does this all apply to a balanced business? For starters, is your business on the list somewhere and where? Are you giving it the time it deserves as the priority level indicates? Most people are not. They put their personal home-based business high on the list of priorities and then low on the list of time invested. In order to get the results you deserve from your business, you absolutely must prioritize it to the level it deserves.

Everything Good Involves Risk

As I said, this exercise is what convinced me to quit my corporate job. My priorities and time commitments were way out of line. I was not happy in my job or my personal life and even though the change was (and sometimes still is) a bit on the scary side, the balance of priorities and time creates a more comfortable lifestyle. Do not let your fears disable you from your priorities. Everything good in life involves risk. It is commitment and focus that will get you where you want to go. Living your life with priorities and time in balance will assist you in enjoying the process. My mentors have influenced me and changed my life through eye-opening coaching. Coaching is a very affordable investment that can impact your quality of life tremendously. It did for me, and now I will give the gift back to you. Please give me a call for a complimentary coaching session. I look forward to impacting your future, and the future of your family. 717.751.2793 Contact me by email: Click Here

A Business Or Personal Coach Will Change Your Life

Personal coaching is really IN right now. It seems to be a new fad. Why do you think that is? Having a coach or mentor will change your life! Every successful athlete has a coach. Every successful business person has a mentor. A coach or mentor will assist you in seeing the light through the forest. A personal life coach, whether he/she is hired to change your business or your personal life, will assist you in getting out of your own way, so that you can achieve more. The insight of someone looking at your situation from the outside is invaluable. That, coupled with the specialized knowledge and expertises that a coach has, will give you leverage to achieve more than you imagined. A personal coach or mentor will literally change your life.

All Successful People Have Coaches

Coaching is not new. Without a coach, Cal Ripkin would never have made it to the Baseball Hall Of Fame. Tiger Woods did not attain the status of the highest paid professional athlete in 2006 without a personal coach. Robert Kiosoki would never have earned millions without his mentor Rich Dad. One of my mentors, Myron Golden, although very successful, continues to invest in his future by hiring mentors and coaches to keep challenging him to higher levels. The collaboration of two minds will give you four times the results that one will do alone. I am sure that even people like Warren Buffet and Donald Trump have coaches.

A Coach Will Exceed Your Expectations

One of the women whom I am coaching hired me to coach her in her quest to attain better health. Throughout the past 4 months we have achieved great strides in that area. She has seen results far beyond her wildest dreams. In fact, something quite unexpected happened. When she started feeling better, she became a more effective leader for her direct sales team! Now we are talking about her continued focus on good health and her business goals as well. Another client of mine asked me to coach her to a new sales level in her MLM company. Her plan was to remodel the house with the money. After a year of coaching she ended up quitting her full time job because her MLM took off higher than she thought was possible. This allowed her to go back to school for a new career that she had always dream of and dared not take the risk to do with her previous salary. Now, as a trained nurse she is living a life she previously could not imagine. Again, by collaborating with a business coach she stretched her goals to surpass her wildest dreams.

Life Coaches Bring Bigger Successes

The reason coaching is IN now is because the results of coaching are always both unexpected and better than expected. The results are always greater than your wildest dreams. If you already knew what the results would be from hiring a coach, you would not have to hire one. A mentor changes your life because of the ability to expand your vision to bigger and better things. Coaching is popular now because a coach will bring out the best in you and allow you to reach your fullest potential.

Pick A Coach To Match Your Mission

A coach might be just what you need to reach the levels of success your have always dreamed of, as well as some that you have not dreamed of. When I first started my direct sales business, I had several coaches, each one capable of guiding me to higher levels. I achieved all the goals I set out to accomplish in my network marketing business and then was catapulted to higher levels due to my continued connection to mentors.

An MLM / Network Marketing Expert

Does your sales business need a coach to get you over a hump? Direct sales and network marketing are my area of expertise. I used my MLM business to quit the corporate world and bring me closer to my mission in life. Whether you want to quit a job, promote to the next level, or just make more money a coach will leverage your results. My mission is to make a difference in the lives of families, now and into the future. Coaching is one way that I am able to see the results of my passion every day! You deserve to achieve your goals. Give me a call to see how I can be of service to you.

I look forward to making a difference in your family’s future.
