Who Are You Going to Call?
Let me ask you a question ... if you had a pain in your side,
would you let your neighbour whip out your appendix?
Of course you wouldn’t and it wouldn’t matter how many
episodes of E.R. he’d seen!
You’d go to a doctor - an expert in his field. It makes you
wonder why so many people approach friends, relatives and
colleagues for advice about specialist problems, when these
people have no more qualifications than our telly-watching
friend.
Every hour of every day there are problems and questions
you need answered, whatever you’re doing and whatever
your own experience and qualifications.
Here’s a little quiz for you - see if your answers match those
of the experts.
Do you know the best way to keep tax records of your
car expenses?
According to Sandy Botkin, Attorney and Certified Public
Accountant, Chief Executive Officer and Principal Lecturer
of the Tax Reduction Institute based in the Washington, DC
area, there are five methods you can use to keep records
that have varying degrees of success in trying to bullet-proof
your car from the tax man:
1. you keep track of your mileage daily from stop to
stop, recording whether it is business or personal
2. the Ninety Day Log: here you would do exactly as you
did under method one but for only ninety consecutive days
3. the One Week A Month Method
4. only keep track of personal and commuting mileage - the
difference is business
5. the desperation approach.
What common vegetable can help you lose weight,
keep your blood sugar levels stable, cure dysentery,
prevent colon and prostate cancer and lower bad
cholesterol?
James F Balch, MD, graduate of the School of Medicine at
Indiana University, explains the benefits of garlic, "Garlic
contains germanium and selenium, which are
sulfur-containing antioxidants that boost the immune system.
In a study, conducted by Dr. Tariq Abdullah, Kyolic (garlic)
killed 20 percent more of the tumor cells in laboratory
cultures than did raw garlic. And raw garlic is by itself one of
the most potent boosters of your natural killer cells."
And you thought it was only good with prawns!
Why aren’t you as successful as you should be?
Gary Ryan Blair, The GoalsGuy, is one of the top strategic
thinkers in the world and founder of GoalsGuy Learning
Systems. He offers an explanation:
"You commit career malpractice every time you do things in a
mediocre manner, every time you show up late, every time
you are unprepared. There is no inherent value in mediocrity,
no reason for people to stop and pay attention, nothing
worth bragging about. You will never hear anyone say,
"Hey, look at me! I'm mediocre and proud of it!"
"Being "world-class" has nothing to do with size, education,
or bloodline; it has everything to do with decision,
commitment, action, and persistence. Excellence is a
destination for anyone who appreciates, respects, and
demonstrates hard work and good judgment!"
How is business going to change this century?
Our final expert offers some words of advice to everyone
who is involved in business:
"Business is going to change more in the next ten years than it
has in the last fifty.
"If the 1980s were about quality and the 1990s were about
reengineering, then the 2000s will be about velocity. About
how quickly the nature of business will change. About how
quickly business itself will be transacted. About how
information access will alter the lifestyle of consumers and
their expectations of business. Quality improvements and
business process improvements will occur far faster. When
the increase in velocity of business is great enough, the very
nature of business changes. A manufacturer or retailer that
responds to changes in sales in hours instead of weeks is no
longer at heart a product company, but a service company
that has a product offering.
"Very few companies are using digital technology for new
processes that radically improve how they function, that give
them the full benefit of all their employees' capabilities, and
that give them the speed of response they will need to
compete in the emerging high-speed business world."
These words were written by Bill Gates, chairman and chief
executive officer of Microsoft Corporation and arguably one
of the most successful businessmen of the century.
If you need advice about business, who are you going to call
your next door neighbour... or Bill Gates?
Don’t leave the important answers to the amateurs - always
ask an expert.
