It’s exactly what it sounds like: focusing your attention on a single task rather than trying to juggle several different tasks simultaneously. It wasn’t long ago when productivity experts were stressing the importance of multitasking, saying it would allow you to get more work accomplished in less time. It’s hard to argue that multitasking — when done correctly — can prove effective at boosting your productivity, but many people are now claiming that singletasking is the way to go. The general principle behind singletasking seems

Have you ever had a situation where you knew you had reached the breaking point? Where ENOUGH was finally ENOUGH? As a business owner, I can tell you that I have had several of those points over the years and I believe the way we chose to address them has made all the difference in the way our company operates today. In the world of Credit Card Processing there are a few areas that should simply cause any business owner to draw the Enough is Enough line: they are listed below for your consideration.

Last week we received a call from a merchant asking for a new merchant account: their business was opening the following day. As a new business owner, they had been inundated with all of the things that have to happen to get the doors open and adding the credit card terminal had slipped their mind. When we mentioned an approval process- they were surprised. Why would they have to be approved to be able to accept cards? Let’s find out! Whenever a business elects to accept credit cards as a form of payment, they are asked to complete an *application. That application is underwritten, just like getting a loan.

Jim Rohn was an AMAZING teacher and this week, I wanted to share one of his articles that really made a profund difference in my life and the life of our team! Have an incredible week and enjoy your Personal Growth Journey! We generally change ourselves for one of two reasons: inspiration or desperation.

March 23, 2015 Character Is Your Masterpiece to Build by Jim Rohn Could creating your character be likened to an artist creating a sculpture? I believe that character is not something that just happens by itself, any more than a chisel can create a work of art without the hand of an artist guiding it. In both instances, a conscious decision for a specific outcome has been made. A conscious process is at work. Character is the result of hundreds and hundreds of choices you make that gradually turn who you are, at any given moment, into who you want to be. If that decision-making process is not present, you will still be somebody. You will still be alive but may have a personality rather than a character.
