As it turns out, everything's perfectly okay. But possibility of things not being okay really knocked me for a loop.

For first time ... ever ... I thought about what would happen to my business if I suddenly weren't around to take care of it.

What an eye-opener!

Fact is, I'm only person who really knows how things work in my business.

Several people - from my attorney to my coach to my book printer - know 'bits' of it. But there's really no one who knows enough about my business to step in, figure things out, and keep things moving without me.

And that was pretty scary to me. (Fortunately, it was scary enough to actually do something about it.)

Thought it would be helpful to share with you what's working for me....

1 - Put your business systems in writing

The good news: I know exactly how things work in my business.

The not-so-good news: I'm only person who knows exactly how things work in my business.

Why is this a problem?

For starters, I'm heading out on vacation tomorrow. And I don't want to bring work with me! If I'm only person who knows how to keep things moving, how is this possible?

It's clear I need some systems. So what needs to be in writing?

Ideally, practically everything. But you might want to start with something fairly easy. Say, how you 'process' new customers, or clients.

When someone decides to work with me as an Art Coach, here's what happens:

• We make our first coaching appointment

• I get credit or debit card authorization for payment of coaching fees

• I send out a Welcome Pack, which includes: pocket folder/label, cover letter, business card, Policies & Procedures, Client Data Form, Client Checklist, Coaching Prep Form, and additional information about coaching

• I use my 'KG Checklist' to check off exact forms I send out; note date mailed/delivered

• I prepare a client folder for my office: insert checklist, cover letter and all info/notes to date, write phone number on tab, write date of first coaching appointment (and all subsequent appointments) on folder cover

• I follow up and note when signed Policies & Procedures form is returned, and add it to client folder

• I staple completed Client Data Form to inside cover of client folder

• As we work together, I add all relevant materials (correspondence, artwork samples, etc.) to folder

What's your 'system' or 'process' for prospects and new customers? Do you:

Have you ever wondered why some Internet marketers seem to have success with every single project? Do they have some magical power that you don't?

Would you like to quickly get that power?

In a recent interview for List Crusade program, T. Harv Eker revealed what he called Millionaire Mindset-which gives extremely successful Internet marketers and offline entrepreneurs what seems to be an "unfair advantage."

(Note: To access T. Harv Eker's complete audio interview for free, see end of article)

Harv is author of best-selling book, SpeedWealth, as well as several highly-acclaimed courses such as The Millionaire Mind Intensive, Life Directions, Wizard Training and Train Trainer. He is also producer and trainer of world-famous Enlightened Warrior Training.

He went from zero to millionaire in only 2-1/2 years using Speed Wealth principles he teaches. He shows you how to instantly rid yourself of limiting beliefs that have stopped you from accumulating wealth in past.

According to Harv, your subconscious mind may actually be holding you back from success you want in Internet marketing and in life.

The subsconscious is much more powerful than your conscious mind.

It's like an ice berg, most it is beneath surface, and that's usually what sinks ships.
