In my industry I work with business owners on a variety of levels. Sometimes it seems as though there is a large brown couch in front of me and everyone keeps jumping on and off to talk about their problems. As I listen I realize everyone is dealing with issues that frustrate them from time to time. So in this article I'm asking the question : What is bugging You , and what are you doing about it?
We have all heard the terms proactive or reactive. But the truth is the truth and it's worth repeating. We live in an age where we can post webinars, phone seminars, tweets, Facebook announcements, and blogs to communicate our points of view. If it involves people there will be opportunity to be frustrated. So I'd love to open up a discussion not only to talk about WHAT challenges face us in business , but what great solutions have made a difference for you.
Here is my example: On social networks when you post a comment some people love it, some hate it ,and some debate it. I have found that discussions are profitable. You learn about other peoples personalities, ideas, and belief systems. I decided long ago to not spend time with useless banter. Our time is precious and we have to be very careful who we lend it to. So my solution to aggressive comments and those who are a little less than kind is to disconnect in my response. By doing so I am able to spend time with those who enjoy being PROductive and not DEStructive.
How about you?
