Great post Paul...I too perform a similar excercise.
Ever since I have been in business, at the end of the day, I have always reviewed the day's activities and prepared for the next day's activities the last hour+ of each day. It has helped me focus on what is and is not important pertaining to my businesses.
I too get out of bed each day thinking, this is a NEW day... it is sufficient enough to remember and correct (if possible) the mistakes of the past day and just concentrate on what the new day holds in store for me.
It reminds me of the old statement, "How do you eat and elephant? One spoonful at a time! :)"
My wife and I had a dear friend (since past) that use to worry about everything. She was one of the most musically gifted people we have ever known and was a great accountant. However, she missed out on so much around her (both personally and professionally) due to her constant worry. It froze her from pushing ahead to enrich her life in both areas or, as I have heard said, she suffered from "paralysis of analysis".
Good luck in catching those worms! And BTW, if you have kids, don't forget to take them fishing with some of those worms! :)

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
