In fact, people who succeed in any walk of life do so not because they discover a 'formula for success', but because they learn how to deal with failure.

Thomas Edison, when asked if he felt discouraged byrepparttar 1,073 failures he had before inventingrepparttar 117627 electric light bulb, replied "I did not fail 1,073 times, I found 1,073 ways not to do it"

Remember, there's no failing, just learning.

Don't get 'stuck' on-line. If part of your marketing is focused onrepparttar Web with e-mail newsletters or similar marketing tools, hire someone to dorepparttar 117626 updates for you. If you value your time and have set a dollar figure for Web-update time, you can see repparttar 117627 wisdom in having a less expensive individual perform this function. Use an employee, student, independent contractor or virtual assistant.

It's too easy to sit in front ofrepparttar 117628 computer and get lost when that time could be better spent writing or going for a walk. Take care of yourself, first!

Mornings are best for detail work. The mind is refreshed and capable of high functioning. It's best to return phone calls inrepparttar 117629 afternoon, especially if they are non-urgent. Critical thinking is best done inrepparttar 117630 morning. Delegate all your non-essential tasks. The more structure you have in your work, repparttar 117631 more freedom you have.

As a last item, learn to say no. Say no to anything that does not fit into your annual plan and your goals. The purpose of creating your plan is to determine what you really want to do. If a request comes for a volunteer or paid situation that does not fit into your plan, just say no.

Saying 'no' is difficult for many people, especially if they are just discovering their boundaries.

Remember - always take care of yourself first!
