You must be eager to learn. Soak up all new information that comes your way. Always have something that you are in process of reading (business- related). Study your marketing techniques to make sure that they are working. Study your competitors inside and out. Listen to what your customers are saying. Look forward to learning something new each day, with a smile! *Change Yourself* Are you not a sponge? Don't worry. It's never too late to change. You just need to leave your "comfort zone". Seek out new and different. Research, investigate, educate yourself in something you know little about(business-related). Do things (anything) that you are not comfortable doing. This will allow you to deal with future changes more easily. Once you break-out of your comfort zone, a whole new world will open up to you. *Change Your Job*
