Sorry folks, but there’s not a #SaturdayMorningHustle post this week. When your mind says “take a day off” you can #Hustle and #Grind through. But when your body, your Dr. and several surgeons tell you to stop and fix something – you should listen to them. I’ll be back next week, so keep doing what your doing. ⠀ ⠀ Thanks to everyone who likes, comments, shares the #SMH post, videos and podcast. You motivate me to #RiseAndGrind every week. #Entrepreneur #WorkSmart then #WorkHard #Business #Success #Truth #EvenOnTheWeekend #StartUpLife #NoExcuses #BusinessOwner #Leadership #Dedication #Commitment #CoffeeAndDonuts #NoShortcuts #Motivation #Career #AboveAndBeyond #Advice #Inspire #Motivate #Opportunity

Break your patterns! Interrupt your routine. Avoid burnout and create opportunity for yourself. Be creative. #SaturdayMorningHustle keys to success include #Hustle #Grind and #Consistency but occasionally you need to take a break. The question is when and how? The answer is…. it’s up to you. Everyone is different.⠀ ⠀ In communications, it’s called a pattern interruption. Change the standard response to create a new, difference opportunity to connect. Be interesting. ⠀ ⠀ Be memorable. But most of all, find ways to connect, communicate and create the potential for a relationship (personal, business or other). ⠀ ⠀ #WorkSmart then #WorkHard but find ways to make your routine less routine to keep your battery charged and communications open.⠀ ⠀ Check out the 5 min.

#SaturdayMorningHustle Lot's of people talk about Work / Life balance for #Entrepreneurs, #BusinessOwners, #SideHustler and #RiseAndGrind personalities but #Balance is more than that. Finding real balance in your life when you have dedicated yourself to building a business, career or self-brand also includes how and when you talk about your pursuits, when to "sell" and when to pass and when to be proud of what you do (and how you do it) vs. being obnoxious about it. Communicate your "Why" not your sales numbers.⠀ ⠀ You can't be shy or nothing ever happens BUT if you're about that life 150% of the time you don't have room for anything (or anyone) else. So how does one manage passion with being social or drive to succeed with being supportive of others? Let's talk about it. Join the discussion. Thanks and good luck!⠀ ⠀ #Hustle #Grind #WorkSmart #WorkHard #Promote #SelfMade #WorkLifeBalance #StartWithWhy #Motivation #Collaboration #Communication #Networking #Social #Advice #EvenOnTheWeekend #Startup #Business #Career #Success

#SaturdayMorningHustle taking advice from the great Don Draper on #MadMen when he tells the owner of scandalized Caldecott Farms dog food “Any agency that does not change the name is stealing your money. The product is good, it’s high-quality, dogs love it, but the name has been poisoned.” She does not agree of course. Draper goes on to tell her to find a new agency because she won't follow his professional advice – and he's right! ⠀ ⠀ This advice is very similar to a quote of mine in a recent @databoxHQ article "The Reasons Why Agencies Say ‘No’ to New Business"⠀ ⠀ Agencies want to do great work for their clients. Their livelihood depends on it. So when it doesn’t look like a project will succeed, it’s in their best interest to not accept the client. It’s not always an easy decision. But according to the agencies we heard from, it’s one worth making.⠀ ⠀ Kyle Golding, chief strategic idealist at @TheGoldingGroup, says that the most common reason his agency turns down potential clients is inflexible leadership in the client company. These projects can be doomed from the start, he says.⠀ ⠀ “If you’re not willing to make changes, then why are you hiring us?” added Golding, who looks for executives that are not only comfortable with his agency’s ideas but excited about them. https://databox.com/why-agencies-say-no ⠀ ⠀ Don Draper and I agree, anyone you hire (or hires you) has to be a "fit" in style, approach and willingness to do what works, not what's easy or what the client wants to hear. That's just stealing your money. Sometimes it doesn't work out, and the professional relationship should end. ⠀ ⠀ #Audience #Client #Advice #Consulting #Business #Entrepreneur #Coach #Agency #Collaboration #Partnership #Success #WorkSmart #WorkHard #Relationship #EvenOnTheWeekend #BoomerSooner
