Small Business Revitalization Blog

 

I have a mentor who sees the world totally different to almost anyone on the planet.  His unique views on business make a lot of sense and he creates his businesses from an energy that is all about out-creating rather than problem-solving.  Why?  Because it works!

“Problem-solver” is a label much touted as a good thing in most businesses. The funny thing is, if you are a problem-solver, then you are always going to be creating problems to solve.  Oops!!  How is that working for your business?  Are you a little tired of fixing the problems in your business that you are creating? (Truly, if they are there, you are creating them somehow!)  Is it time to create a greater possibility?  One that could be fun for you?

A business truly focused on growth will create from an energy of out-creating, rather than problem-solving.  Look at how Apple began – they weren’t solving a problem, they were creating something totally different.  Richard Branson doesn’t solve problems; he out-creates the really average stuff that is on offer by his ‘competition’.

Two weeks ago I asked my mentor a few questions about people copying me (there seemed to be a  trend on that!) and he showed me an energy of out-creation that was far beyond what I have been playing with.  Out-creation is ALWAYS a more generative strategy than copying or competing (just in case you were wondering!!)

This week I came up with a new business model for one of my businesses that has the potential to make it into everything I have been asking it to be!  On a much larger scale… with a lot less of my time… that no-one else is doing… and in a way that would be way more fun for me!  How does it get better than that?

Here’s how it gets even better… I come up with another 10 business models that are game changers.  It really is that simple.  I became aware that the only ‘problem’ I had been creating in this business was not allowing it to be big enough… or amazing enough... or creative enough… or DIFFERENT enough!  Cute… not bright.  Changes are afoot!  

So, you could ask your business this question… and be willing for inspiration to come from anywhere…

“What could I be or do today that would allow me to outcreate myself right away?”

 And if you would like to know more about how to create a whole lot of this in your business, here are some choices:

• A free 30 minute business coaching session.
• Join us for the Business Beyond Limits telecall each month.
• Come to Creativity Lab LIVE!™ and outcreate everything you thought possible.

If you have been thinking too small, now is the time to outcreate everything you have ever dreamed of.  Go Play!

Have you ever looked at business and thought "There must be an easier way than this"?  Together with Diva Diaz, I am hosting a free teleclass where we take business to places it has never been before!

    What is business beyond your limitations?
    Beyond money?
    Beyond success?
    Beyond everything you see right now?

Would you like to come play with us as we create some new possibilities for how business could be? If you could create business the way YOU would truly like to, what would it be? What are your limitations in business? What are you doing with them? Can you change them? And if so, how can you change them?

This is just one of the many ways in which we approach business differently. For us, business is something that is totally mutable and changeable and in this class we will show you exactly how you can change ANYTHING in business.

What contribution is your business asking for that would create a totally different possibility for you and your business?

This free 45 minute content rich class is on March 13th - via telephone, wherever you are!  You must sign-up to receive the call-in details! The call will be recorded and made available to those who are signed up.
