My Top 10 Business Mantras

  1. Don't Procrastinate. Purpose fuels passion. Just do it!
  2. Always Exceed Your Client's Expectations. Over deliver with a smile.
  3. Who Said All Boxes Had to be Square?! Think outside the box. Wear your creative hat and have your listening ears on 24/7. 
  4. Be Crystal Clear on Who You Are. Both personally and professionally. Your 'why', what you're passionate about and how you want to be perceived. Own it succinctly and emotively. 
  5. Be Honest. If you can't do it, or you hate doing it don't take on the work. Your clients will respect you far more for being honest and showing true integrity.
  6. Readers are Leaders. Read, learn, then read some more. Every day bless yourself with a new nugget of learning.
  7. It's Okay to Challenge the Status Quo.  Or to challenge an existing idea or process that you believe can be improved. If you believe there is a better way to do it, share it and invite others to debate it with you. 
  8. Losing a Customer Can Be Truly Liberating. Celebrate the wins and the losses. Sometimes the losses give you greater satisfaction, perspective and rewards than the wins. 
  9. Enjoy the Journey of Life. Don't always be racing to be the first to the finish line.
  10. No One Can Be Good at Everything. Specialise, own your genius zone & be outstanding at what you love to do. We need to do what we can do and let the universe (or other specialists) do what we cannot.
