New Year's Advice - The Cure for Been There, Done That

Happy New Year. January is when we are flooded with advice and resolutions - everything from how to lose holiday weight, to new strategies for business growth.

As you read this advice, have you ever thought "been there, done that?" When we hear advice we often dismiss it because we assume that we are routinely putting it into action. Or we tune it out because we think the advice isn't good. After all, if the information is valid, how come we all aren't rich and thin?

Instead, we search for something completely new - the secret that will yield the breakthrough we are looking for.

So here's my one piece of advice for the New Year.

When you read a tip or idea to help you in your business or career, assume you are not acting on it completely, or not acting on it enough. Ask yourself, "Am I doing this the same old way, or could I do it differently?"

Here's how to tell. If you feel comfortable, you aren't learning or growing. Make yourself feel uncomfortable - just for a little while. You'll see the results, and feel the satisfaction of gaining new ground this year.
