    2007 Thoughts on Starting a Mobile Auto Detailing Business
    Starting a Mobile Auto Detailing Business sounds rather simple, right? You go get yourself a plastic water tank, pressure washer and some supplies and since everyone has a car getting customers ought to be rather easy. In essence this is all true however if you want to be profitable and make the most amount of money it is a little more complicated than that really. Having been in the Mobile Auto Detailing Business for decades we have learned all the secrets to maintaining efficiency and hence we have written them down.In my many articles on this topic you will find strategies for getting your clientele, enhancing word-of-mouth advertising, acquiring referrals, designing brochures, preventing equipment failure, clustering accounts and working in winter weather. Many of the tips you
    I want to share some additional ideas about the process of change to help you gear up for showing up more fully in 2006.

    First I want to tell you about a powerful exchange I had with a 17 year old client and his mother this week. I must say that this young person is massively troubled. His mother stated that she always taught her child to be a “free thinker” and to challenge “entrenched power”. My response was that “It is OK to think outside the box, but first you need a box”.

    By having a box I mean a set of beliefs, values, an identity and a coherent personal story to hold all of this.

    That being said, once you have a “box”, hopefully it is flexible enough to make room for new ideas and experiences.

    I strongly believe your identity or personal story literally creates who you are. My 17 year old client has constructed his identity around being a person who is a fighter. He is not clear about what he stands for. He is clear what he is against – EVERYTHING!

    In order to create change in your life, you need to examine your current identity conclusions.

    This is crucial because you act in line with your identity. Your identity acts like a governor on a go-cart. It will only let you go so far or so fast.

    You may be pondering, “What is my identity or personal story?” or “Where does it come from?”

    Your identity conclusions are self created out of your collective life experiences. Many of our most preciously held assumptions we developed before we were old enough to know the difference.

    We often get caught up in defining ourselves in extremely narrow and limiting ways. For example, some folks use their profession as their primary identifier. Other individuals use unfortunate past experiences to construct their identity around – “I am a victim”.

    Defining your self by a problem you have can be highly troubling. Clinging to other titles, roles or labels is extremely restricting – as these can fall away.

    Your identity can be thought of as your true inner self. It includes many interconnecting aspects of who you are. Specifically it includes:

    YOUR BELIEFS: These are your unique ideas and conclusions about: the world around you, other people, and your behavior - to name a few.

    YOUR VALUES: Specifically those “things” you hold dearly and play a significant role in driving your day-to-day choices and behavior.

    Overall your IDENTITY is your deep sense of who you are. Your identity can be seen as what organizes your beliefs, capabilities, behaviors, and values into a single system – a story.

    Your identity is so key to who you are. While you need a clear sense of who you are, your identity can be problematic if it becomes rigid or outdated. For example, many individuals who I have seen in coaching or psychotherapy over the years have come in with outdated solutions. Specifically, if someone grows up in an abusive home, they may learn to distrust people and keep people at a distance. This solution (and corresponding stories) makes perfect sense when considering the context in which they were originally developed. As an adult, this outdated solution likely contaminates relationships.

    So how do you begin to change your identity or your personal story?

    That is a huge question, but I am glad you asked. Here is a powerful starting point:

    Ask yourself some powerful questions to connect with your true self or edit your existing story. For example:

    If you were on your deathbed what are the 2 most important things you would share with loved ones about what you learned in your life?

    What gives you the greatest joy in your life?

    If money was not an issue, what kind of work would you do? Who is your greatest hero(s) and why?

    If you had a time machine and could relive one experience you had, what would that experience be and why?

    Remember, expanding or editing your personal story is key to your success. This is similar to what Earl Nightingale meant when he said, “We become what we think about, most of the time”.

    The key is that we can change what we think about; with the right approach. William James stated “Of all the creatures of earth, only human beings can change their patterns. Man alone is the architect of his destiny… Human beings, by changing their inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their life.” In other words, when you change your story, you change what you arrange for, create and attract into your life.

    Don’t follow the masses. I suspect that Thoreau was correct when he said “The mass of men live lives of quite desperation”. So many people play it safe. They stay small. They take the easier softer way. They are afraid to show up more fully in their own life. They are uncomfortable with the potential impact that living out an expanded and more empowering story will have on those around them.

    Small Business Ideas, Success by Faith
    You have to believe in your small business ideas. What you believe truly and with feeling will become your reality. When you change what you believe, you can change your reality and your performance.Your thoughts and beliefs can either help you achieve your goals or keep you from achieving success.People with a negative approach to life and the naysayers says : “I don't believe it until I see it!” In fact, it's the other way around, it is not until you believe it, you'll see it! And it doesn't matter what "it" is.To limit your self by your thoughts is the worst thing you can do. That will for certain keep you from achieving the success you want. There is an old saying : whether you think you can or you can't, you're right.Once you adapt, how powerful your mind is,

    Autoresponder Traffic Means No Free Autoresponder Service
    Using an autoresponder, sometimes referred to as an automatic responder, can bring a lot of repeat traffic to your site, and traffic usually translates into profit. The neat thing about an automatic email responder is that you are bringing back traffic that you already had. This means if a visitor did not make a purchase the first time they came your site, you have another opportunity to sell to them.Another benefit of an autoresponder is that the traffic you get from those on your list are targeted visitor. They obviously have an interest in your information so this means that they are hot leads. Hot leads are much easier to sell to.Many people look for a free autoresponder solution but let me emphasize that these do not work. You will loose your leads and ultimately

    Be the Samurai Sword
    Relationships are constantly facing crisis. Everywhere we look people are in dispute with one another. Companies are in dispute with one another. Countries are even in dispute with one another.Arguments, litigation, divorce, even war are the products of relationships in crisis.What is the purpose of fuelling animosity? Life is so short. It's too short to waste precious time with such unproductive pursuits. Do we really need to keep conflict going? What can possibly be achieved by constantly fanning the flame of conflict? But people do it.When one party has the strength to step back, conflict, or the escalation of it, can often be avoided.Strength? Yes I did say strength. It takes strength and courage to take the first bold step of reconciliation and peace. Som

    Use Your Imagination
    The following exercise is very fun to do and will help you to relax and sharpen your senses at the same time. You probably know already that your brain can’t distinguish between something experienced and something actively imagined. Well, let’s experience that.First find yourself a quiet place, where you will not be disturbed for the following 30 minutes. I usually do this before I go to sleep, but that has the possible disadvantage that you will fall asleep in the middle of the exercise… which makes this also a good exercise if you can’t get to sleep.Lie down and close your eyes. Take a deep breath, hold it for a few seconds and then exhale slowly. Repeat this a few times. Let the tension go with each exhale.Now think of the house you lived in when you were young.
