Will You Add? - The Lucky Investor
The key to meeting and exceeding the needs of your customers & clients is realising that each one is on their own journey with your business. From the moment a person becomes aware of your business and becomes a prospect to the time they finish doing business with you - this is their journey. Some people call it a customer lifecycle - the key stages each of your prospects & customers go through.This applies whether you sell a product or a service. Creating a customer-ce
By now you are probably thinking it might take too long to prepare for opportunities. Or you should have started preparing long ago so you would be ‘lucky’ right now. Do not lose heart. First, realize if you are short on time, you need to work very efficiently. By leveraging the knowledge of others around you, you can shave years off the ‘preparation’ process. All smart business men and women know this. You may have heard the term ‘Mastermind Grou
A successfully positioned business sometimes doesn't win a new client. And that, my friend, is the point. Let me illustrate with an anecdote.Recently I was making a new business pitch to a Charlotte area professional services firm. The second meeting took place after I had provided a detailed proposal to the company on how I work. From the two meetings and the proposal it was made abundantly clear that I take a comprehensive, strategic approach to communications.
I'll never forget the definition of luck I heard many years ago. A friend of mine said "Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity." This has never been more, true of good fortune, than in the world of investing. When you are prepared you will recognize opportunities others do not; thereby making you appear lucky.
Taking the time to learn about the many ways in which you might invest is a perfect example of preparing yourself for an opportunity. The more familiar you are with a concept, the easier it is to recognize opportunities when they present themselves. Often times the most profitable situations appear to be unsolvable issues on the surface. It is the educated investor who can spot the opportunity buried in the pile of problems; and be rewarded handsomely for his/her efforts. The average person, who has not taken the time to educate himself/herself, is astonished when they see the good fortune bestowed upon the educated investor.
It is important to note that acquiring an education has nothing to do with being naturally smart. A lot of professional people, people considered in society as ‘smart’, have lost absolute fortunes because they lacked education about their investments. There are people who barely finished high school and are multi-millionaires. How can that be? The answer - one is book smart and the other is street smart. Book smart is great for taking tests and dealing with black and white issues; investing is neither. Investing requires a separate education outside of regular schooling. Anyone who applies themselves can become street smart in the world of investing. All it requires is time, effort and determination to succeed.

There are many reasons why people decide to change jobs. Sometimes it's simply about moving forward on long-term goals -- about having choice and options. But sometimes an individual's desire to make a change springs from frustration and/or desperation and the need is immediate and high priority. With this second type of change a person may be looking to get away from such things as a difficult boss, an uncomfortable situation with co-workers, having been passed over for a pro

A motor car manufacturer, for instance, buys steel, rubber, aluminium, plastic, etc, that is used to manufacture motor vehicles that are sold to dealers (the trading concern). These dealers, in turn, sell vehicles to the customer.From an accounting point of view the activities of manufacturing and trading enterprises are very similar, especially their administration, sales and financing activities. Therefore, the accounting principles and most of the procedures can be

Where I grew up, there was a little window next to the sidewalk in a New England style brick building, where you could peer inside and watch tailors hand-stitching mink coats.If you just stood there, sooner or later, an amazing thing happened.One of the tailors would smile at you, slide the window open, and hand you a scrap of mink, about six inches long and two inches wide.“Here, here,” he’d say with a big grin. “Take it!” and then he’d chuckle his way ba
By now you are probably thinking it might take too long to prepare for opportunities. Or you should have started preparing long ago so you would be ‘lucky’ right now. Do not lose heart. First, realize if you are short on time, you need to work very efficiently. By leveraging the knowledge of others around you, you can shave years off the ‘preparation’ process. All smart business men and women know this. You may have heard the term ‘Mastermind Group’. This is a group of individuals who have been carefully selected by a business person to help reduce the time necessary to learn a skill or process. Another way to leverage your time and gain the knowledge you need, to make smart money decisions is by engaging the services of a mentor. A mentor is simply a person who acts as a guide to you in your investing activities. In either case, asking for help and guidance will help you avoid many pitfalls and save a lot of heartache.
I know many seasoned investors, who are quite wealthy, and attribute their continued success to the people they surround themselves with. That’s right – they continue to surround themselves with successful people; long after they have achieved their goals.
In summary, there really is no such thing as a lucky investor. Lucky investors are simply informed investors who spend many hours of time preparing for great opportunities. You can become lucky too. All you need to do is find a successful person in the area of your interest, ask for their help and then, by all means, follow their advice. Go out there and make your own luck! Become educated by aligning yourself with a good mentor or a mastermind group. At the very least, take action and read about what interests you. Prepare yourself for the opportunities which are all around you – right at this very moment. Good Luck! (Pun Intended)
