Bill Gates’ Secret Weapon: Stop to Think
Bill Gates stops to think at least twice a year. Bill escapes to his wilderness lodge every six months for one week. It is during these times that he develops strategy for Microsoft. It was one of these thinking sessions that helped him to move his company to embrace the Internet and the related opportunities.
How often do you stop to think? Really think? About your business; about your future; about your life? You should invest at least one day every three months thinking. Try it – one out of 90 days thinking. That is only four days a year thinking. That is not a lot to ask. But imagine how much more that would be than your competition.
Schedule that undisturbed time to think. What could be more important that thinking? Yet we too often are too busy doing stuff without thinking. Your business will survive and thrive only if you think. Your life will be more satisfying if you think.
You might say that Bill Gates has time to think because he is the richest guy in the world. The reality is that, he is the richest guy in the world – because he takes time to think.
What questions might you ask during these thinking sessions?
What business are you in?
Where is the industry going?
What trends do you see?
What threatens your business?
What are the unknowns?
How can you distinguish yourself from the competition?
What other questions should you be asking?
What issues/ decisions are you avoiding that you need to confront?
Think!

What is the Secret to Success?
I have interviewed over 400 business leaders over the past decade on my radio show, Business in Motion. The guests include entrepreneurs, corporate executives and business authors.
I keep searching for answers. Answers to questions like, "What is the secret to success?"
Although the answer comes in different words, the common message is: Success comes from doing little things consistently well over time.
Think about that. Success is about the small stuff. Yes you do need to sweat some of the small stuff – if you want to be successful. "Don't sweat the small stuff" was not written by or for business owners.
Not all of the small stuff – but the right small stuff. The secret is in finding and focusing on the right small stuff.
Good luck.

Good cartoon, true reflection of what is happening now. My own remedy to the problem. Good training, delegation of tasks and we should not be afraid of failure.

"The universe is a living, intelligent, organized whole, and, most
importantly, it is organized hierarchically. Yes, hierarchically,
from the densest, darkest regions to the divine world, which is
pure light. And if humans encounter so many difficulties and are
exposed to so much suffering, it is because they have not found
the right attitude to have towards this cosmic hierarchy, which
has God at its pinnacle.
But what is an attitude? A synthesis of what we are. It shows
the state of our physical body but also of our psychic and
spiritual bodies, as well as the quality of the energies
circulating and working inside us. Our attitude fashions us,
shapes us; it connects us to the different regions of space, and
when it is an attitude of respect, love and, above all,
gratitude, it attracts to us the currents and spirits of the
world of light."
