    Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Being Obnoxious Good or Bad Part 1

    Being Obnoxious, Good? or Bad? Part 1
    Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
     
    They don't make obnoxious like they used to. I remember the first time I was called obnoxious. I was in the seventh grade. And I was joking in class with some of my friends. We were probably just being louder than we should have been, probably more inappropriate manner than we were in class. But I must have said something that my teacher overheard, you know, and she didn't like it because she came up to me and she said to me, Carll you’re being obnoxious. And I could tell that she wasn't happy with me or what I said, but I didn't know what the word obnoxious meant. I don't know what I may have said that upset her. And I certainly didn't see anything wrong with what was going on, right? But all my friends and I, we were just laughing and having a good time. So in the beginning, funny enough, I took it as a compliment. I thought obnoxious was a compliment. So talking about ignorance being bliss, I was out of my mind happy. So at first I could tell she wasn't happy. So I felt like I did something wrong, but I didn't really think I did anything wrong. So that night, I didn't say anything at the time. That night I go home, and I look up the word obnoxious. And you know what I found? I found that it meant odiously or disgustingly objectionable and highly offensive.

    Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-It is a Blind Spot. Functional Problems

    It is a Blind Spot. Functional Problems
    Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
    Complacency and cruise control can happen here. It is a blind spot. It is a functional problem, but you need to get back to it right away. If you're having cash flow problems, if you're having net profit problems at this point, that's very dysfunctional. This is almost like a second honeymoon for the business. Strong systems, strong controls, cosmetic enhancements, puts you back in the forefront in your market, sales should increase simply by making that change. If you go back to the team that you built earlier on, we talked about having somebody who's an expert in business evaluations. What is a business worth? Here is where one of your power tools will be doing an evaluation of the business. This is an add on and a logical progression to the benchmarking that you've done.

    Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Stage 2 - Business Runs the Owner

    The Business Runs the Owner
    Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
     The challenge that you have here is that most of the time the business runs the owner in stage two, this is an area of concern. Part of your focus needs to be implementing your MVP planning, working with your strategic partner, your advisor, building those credentials and maximizing this stage by making sure you're among the highest compensated in your field, because in stage two, there is a limit to what you can earn. There is a limit, because there's only so many hours in a day, and there's only so many people you can reach. So if you are a tradesman, if you're a doctor, if you're a financial planner, if you're an accountant, if you're an attorney, there are only so many hours in the day and there are only so many clients who can service. So part of the equation is making sure that you are among the top paid in your field and to do that you need to build your credentials to become the highest certified or the highest acclaim in your field.

    Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Find Money in Your Blindspot

     Find Money in Your Blindspot
    Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results.
    Results people sometimes struggle with their system’s people. Relationship people sometimes struggle with the detail’s people. Now again, I’m pretty sure this doesn’t happen in any of your businesses, but again you have heard a rumor this can saddle some other companies. Ok, and so, we want to be aware that we’re not saying we’re not in the camp of work on your weaknesses all day long so you can become a better-rounded person. That’s not what we are talking about. What we are talking about though, is becoming functional in your blindspot. So, I won’t be doing it with all of you but I can share a formula with the owners, give me 4 minutes and I can show you how much money I can steal from your company. You will actually tell me how much money I could steal from your company and you would never know it! Once you tell me that number, I will know the number I will tell you that I’m stealing and you won’t even know where to look. Right in your blind spot area. Now we kind of know the formula for most of you anyway, so that’s why we’re working on it. But the reality is, is that there’s a ton of money sitting in your blindspot area, that if you can mine that area of your business there’s a lot of value there.

    Carl Gould-#70secondCEO-3-Things You Love Hate About Your Work

    Carl Gould-#70secondCEO-3-Things You Love Hate About Your Work

    Hi Everybody, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO, just a one minute investment per day for a lifetime of results.
     Today's talk is all about finding yourself in your work and lose yourself in your work. Find yourself in your work meaning, what are you passionate about? What are the things that are going to stretch you and are going to make you into the next chapter of the best version of yourself? 
     OK, in order to find yourself when you work, you have to lose yourself IN your work, in other words, you have to find out, what challenges you. And what stimulates you about your work?
      There was a time I had a construction company that I hated. You know what I did like? Negotiating the deal, designing the site doing that work and then at the very end the completion. So, I stuck to those areas. 
    Write down below, comment: 
    What are the top three things you love about your job? 
    Top three things you hate about your job?
     And, it’s your job to get rid of those 3 things as soon as possible!
      This is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
