Stop Debating & Start Taking Action

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   
In my work with entrepreneurs, CEOs, and growing business leaders, there is one thing that seems to work every time--stop debating alternatives and start taking action.  It sounds simple, and it really is...but it is seldom as easy to do as it sounds. 
 

Remember Who Owns the Garbage

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   
A few years ago while visiting a client's business and the CEO, a mid-level manager, and I were walking across the parking lot on our way back from lunch.  Suddenly the CEO excused himself and walked about 50 yards away from us, then bent over and picked up a small piece of trash that was lying in the parking lot.
 

Eliminate One Task on Your To Do List Each Week

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   

It happens to all of us: The To Do List grows and grows and grows when we get busy. Soon there are all kinds of things on it that are not likely to get done, but we keep them there because we, at one time, planned to do them.
 

Create a Mascot

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   
If your business reaches out to markets that include young people, there are few things more powerful than a mascot that the kids will remember. Use a friendly image that somehow ties to your business and have the mascot wander around your business from time to time, or make visits to local schools, malls, and so forth.
 

Stop Doing One Thing Each Month

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   
Carefully examine everything you are currently doing in your business (or your profession, or your personal life) with an eye on what could be eliminated. Your goal is to identify things that use up available resources, but contribute little to the bottom line or to the achievement of your personal and professional objectives.

Change the Way You Respond

Daily BIG Idea
Written by Dr. Michael Hudson   
When someone asks you "How are you today?" what is your typical response? Do you give the normal, customary, boring, and often ignored response of "Fine, how are you?"? Next time, try this: Take advantage of the opportunity to make both your day and the inquirer's day better by responding with something like... "Outstanding!" or "Fantastic!" or "Exceptional!" or "Awesome!" (the list could go on and on).

Random Thoughts for Creativity…
