You are a problem solver! - Walter Bond | TB#34 - Duration: 3:19.You are
a problem
solver.
Hi! My name is Andrew
and welcome to Today's Brainwork where we start every single day with an idea
or a quote.
And today we have actually a quote
which I've heard from Walter Bond.
You are a problem solver.
Now.
What is
a problem solver?
It's actually a mindset.
Now, this is the mindset that can be used both
in your life
and in your business.
If I remember correctly
Walter actually used it
for business purposes
but
because
this is what business is about
about
solving problems.
If you solve someone's problem
you give them a value
and
they give you value back in
terms of money or
bargain or whatever.
Now.
In relations
actually, in your life more than relationships, in your life
you should also be a problem solver
and
I think this is
one of those things that are
going to be
just easier for guys
because
women and men think differently
and
guys are
more strict and
let's say less imaginative when
is coming to
thinking.
Actually I have an example
let's say the girl
says that she's cold
and she's alone with the guy.
There is a very huge possibility that she just want to be hugged.
But the guy
wants to give her
his coat.
Because she's cold.
This is her
logical thing that she said.
Now.
How beeing a problem solver can help you in your life?
Well.
I think
we make a very
big mistake
because
many of us
go to work and work in big, great companies
where we
use all these methods to create our goals and
achieve them
and then we come back home and we don't use the same things to improve our life.
So yeah.
Quote for today is
You are
a problem solver!

English Lesson - How to talk about being sick - Part 1 - Duration: 11:17.Okay, so today we're going to be talking about stick vocabulary because actually I am sick right now
I'm just getting over my cold and
So you can probably hear that in my voice?
So that inspired me to teach you about
Six vocabulary
specifically for a
Cold or a flu
So we can say that you catch a cold
Okay, you don't catch a flu you catch a cold
so what happened to me is I caught a cold and
It's not a good thing or you could get the flu pretty much means the same thing
When someone says it's going around
This means that the sickness is spreading
Many people are getting sick
So it's really common for people to say oh
Yeah, it's going around
Actually, I said that at my work the other day. I went in and
a lot of teachers were sick and
I said oh, yeah
It's going around it being the cold the cold is spreading to almost everybody
And that always happens every season
Now if you say, I feel under the weather I
Feel under the weather. This is not stick yet if you if you say, I
Feel under the weather
it means
You are starting to feel sick
You don't feel very well, but you're not exactly sick you just don't feel a hundred percent great
As you normally do you feel a little bit tired Maybe you start to get a little bit of a headache
So that's feeling under the weather. It's not sick yet. It's
Just is how you feel when you're starting to get sick?
If you say, I'm not feeling well
This is saying. I am sick, so if you have to call in to [work]
You can tell them I'm sick, or I'm not feeling well
I can't come in today
and
you would get what we call a sick day a
Sick day is a day when you don't go into work because you're too sick to go
So you can tell them I'm not feeling well
and then
When someone tells you that you're sick that when someone tells you that they are sick you should say I
Hope you get well soon
It's a common phrase to say get well soon, but if you're specifically talking to the person face-To-face
Then you would say, I hope you get well soon. If you're sending a message or a text
It's common to just say get well soon
So this means that we hope for a fast recovery that they won't be sick for a long time
And they will feel better very quickly
so
our next word is contagious a
Flus and colds are contagious now what that means is
it can spread from one person to another so
If you have a cold, then you are contagious
Someone else can get your cold, so you want to avoid
being in contact with people
You know just be careful that you don't spread the cold because it is contagious
And you don't want anyone else getting sick
now
the last one is
soothe
sore throat
There should be a soothe a sore throat
So a sore throat is when you feel sick
Here you feel something bad in here, and I have that that's why my voice isn't so clear
and
if you have a sore throat
You want it to feel better so we can
Drink hot liquids. You know like like hot tea or we can
Drink honey so that we can make it feel better
that means soothe to soothe and
relax the throat
So you can soothe your sore throat
Okay, so that's for our phrases and we're moving on to symptoms
symptoms are the things that you feel when you're sick, and we have a long list here of
The different symptoms that you can get when you have a cold or the flu
so
If you say, I feel stuffy that means that
you can't breathe through your nose and
It's not so easy sometimes you can't breathe at all through your nose
and you [have] to breathe through your mouth if you're feeling very stuffy and
yeah, then you you have to blow your nose and
it can be really hard to breathe uh
This is the same as congested. It's
When you feel stuffy inside your nose, but it can also kind of be that
Stuffiness inside your head, which is kind of what I have now. It's where you know
When you get a cold, and you just you can't think very clearly
you you think very slowly and it's
it just makes life so much more difficult because
You you're so slow and everything is not clear. So you're you're congested. I
Hate that feeling I think that's one of the worst feelings is being congested
So that's similar to feeling stuffy feeling stuffy is just in your nose congested can be your nose
sinuses and
Of course your head
so the next is
feeling fatigue
Fatigue is when you feel
Very tired because you're sick. There's no reason why you feel tired or exhausted
It's just because you're sick and I had this just yesterday. I went to the mall [and] I was walking around and
just like
15 minutes of Walking made me feel so
fatigued I
had to sit down and rest and just breathe so I was feeling very fatigued yesterday and
It's a terrible feeling. It's just basically
feeling tired or not having the energy [that] you normally have it's
A real lack of energy is feeling fatigued
Next is fever
fever is an awful thing a fever is when you have a temperature, so
you can check your temperature in your ear or you can put a
Thermometer in your mouth or you can check your forehead and if you're hot
if your forehead is hot
You have a fever
when you have a fever
Other people will feel your head and say that you're hot or they can feel your arm and you feel hot
But normally when you have a fever you feel cold
Even though your body is actually hot so that's a fever
This is what I had yesterday
dry eyes
so dry eyes is when your eyes don't have any water or any liquid in them, and
it's kind of hard to see you know you blink a lot and
the worst thing to do is to go into the air conditioning because
Ac the air from the Ac will make your eyes feel even drier and
It's very uncomfortable
The opposite of that is watery eyes or teary eyes
that's when
you're feeling sick and
Liquid or water. It's just tears we call them tears are just coming out of your eyes and
That happens to actually when I was think I woke up with watery eyes and later
You know I woke up with tears coming out of my eyes and then later
When I went into the air conditioning my eyes were very dry and there were there was no water at all
so
the next we have sinus infection an
Infection can be anywhere in the body, but we're going to focus on the sinuses the sinuses is in
Your nose and it also connects to your ears
So when you feel something some something bad around here
that's when you have a sinus problem now a sinus infection is when
you're your stuffy your congested, but
it's there's like a bad smell inside your sinuses and
When you have this and you try to eat food food doesn't taste right?
You can't taste food anymore. All you can you either taste nothing, or you taste that?
awful infection
Taste in your mouth that will not go away
that's in it a sinus infection and even if you drink you might not feel you might not taste the
drink or
Even taste the food that you're trying to eat
So you could be eating your favorite food and it tastes absolutely terrible

#AskMeOnMonday Episode 5 | My Two Biggest Lessons of 2017 - Duration: 10:22.Hey guys, I'm Angeline from Peer Business
Consulting and this is #AskMeOnMonday.
So this week I wanted to do
something a little bit different from
previous videos. Instead of answering
a question from a business owner, I
wanted to talk to you guys about a
personal challenge that I've recently
been facing and talk to you
about my realizations and
lessons that I've learned from this
challenge and how I'm dealing
with it and handling it going forward.
Now I know that I have some clients who
have actually been through this before.
And if this applies to you
as well then I hope this video resonates
for you. And if it does that you can pick
up some tips along the way. And if
nothing else, just for you to know that
you're not alone in your struggles as a
business owner and that all of us face
struggles from time to time. So let's get
into it.
For those of you who know me well,
you'll probably have noticed that I've
been fairly stressed lately.
I've had a fair bit on - I've got
a bunch of clients that I'm trying to
manage, I've got a bunch of new
products that I'm launching, as
well as the normal commitments that most
of us have, including family,
friends, health and fitness,
sleep - all those things. But when I really
sat down to think about where my stress
was coming from, I realized that actually
being busy wasn't the issue. In fact
busyness tends to motivate me and it's
actually something I normally thrive on.
What it is, is worry over my cash flow
situation. Now I'm sure a lot of you have
just heard that and gone "Aha! Ange, I hear
you!" Because it's such a
typical business problem that
many of us face, particularly in your
first few years of business, which I am
in. So yes we are talking about that
dreaded issue of lumpy cash flows, which
is exactly what I'm going through right
now. I suppose for me it's a little
bit of a shock to the system.
Number one because I'm a coach and I
talk about you know so many ways to
avoid this very situation, so I guess I
should know better. But number two
because I came from a corporate
background so I've always had - I've been
lucky enough to have - fairly
high paying jobs. Money has
never really been an issue. So
this is actually the first time in my
life I am facing
financial pressures. So I'm actually
going to drill down for you what the
last two and a half, two and
three-quarter years have looked like for
me in my business. So I am laying it all
on the line and I'm being completely
transparent to you. So here is what my
cash flows year-by-year looked like for
the last two and three-quarter years.
You can see from the chart that my year
1 revenues were pretty low, but I
wasn't worried at that stage because
I knew I was starting up a new
business so I had a bunch of savings
that I was going to use as my
startup capital. And I didn't
have an expectation that I'd be earning
much in the first year, simply because no
business ever does really. So that was
the first year. Now the second year I had
a bumper year. You can see I'm
almost $150 k in sales revenue
and that was a fantastic year.
My name was getting out there, I had a
massive increase in new
clients. I had a few clients
that were giving me a lot of repeat
business, which was fantastic. I
had a lot of activity happening - I was
writing blogs, I was networking. Great
year. And then year 3 came along.
Basically I began the year with a
family holiday and the holiday
was fairly challenging for various
reasons. I get as a result of that I
came back and I went into a little bit
of a depression. And nothing I
did could snap me out of
that feeling of depression, so I'd lost
motivation to do much work with the
business, I wasn't really networking
much. The clients that I'd been
servicing had a little bit of a low
period as well but generally I wasn't
really looking for the work. So as a
result, the first half of 2016/2017
wasn't great and didn't look good for me
revenue wise. So then 2017 calendar year
began and I was lucky enough to have
another holiday - this time in Mexico - and
this was a happy holiday. I had a wonderful
time, and I got back with a new lease of
life, the depression had seemed to pass,
and I was really excited to finish 2017
financial year with a bang. However
this was a case of the
external market having an
adverse effect on my business and what
happened was that my two biggest clients that
I had relied on for work we're having a
fairly slow year themselves so as a
result of this over-reliance I guess I
was in a pretty bad predicament.
So this has basically now forced to me to
sit down and really look at
what went wrong, what should I have done
to avoid the situation and what lessons
have I learned as a result of this
situation. I worked out that there are
two main reasons why this has all
happened -1) is that I've almost
depleted my savings buffer and
2) is that I'm relying at the moment (or
I have been relying) on one or two
clients for almost 90% percent of my
revenues. So how to fix this going
forward and prevent it from happening
again? So the first thing is to "make hay
while the sun shines". Now i know that's a
cliche but what I mean by it is this
idea of a savings buffer. I advocate
this to all startups that I advise
that you need to have access to funds in
case of economic or financial downturn.
This basically means some savings,
or some borrowings or maybe even friends
and relatives that you can draw money
from if need be. Now it should be
available fairly quickly when and if you
need it, and it should be for a fairly
lengthy period of time. I had this
but because I was not
earning enough income for almost nine
months I guess what had happened is the
buffer wasn't enough to sustain me
over this whole period so where I've
made my mistake in this last year has
been that number one I probably got a
little bit too cocky in year 2 and
didn't put aside enough savings in
that year when i was having a
good year. And the second
thing was that I didn't I guess envisage
that I would have nine months of
hardship. This was probably a
lot longer than I expected so
what I'd say there is assume
the worst and make sure that you have a
few options in regards
to funds that you can draw on.
The second
way to prevent this from happening again
is to ensure that you have diversified
your income sources. In my case
I've been relying on one or two
clients for most of my income.
There's actually three ways you can
diversify income. 1) is to diversify
your clients, so that means have
a number of clients
on which you can rely for income
not just one or two like I was.
The second way is to diversify your
products and services so what that
means is to have a range of different
types of products and different types of
services that if one particular product
or service isn't selling at a particular
time due to whatever factors you can
rely on the others to still bring in
income for you. And the third way to
diversify is to have a
variety of both active and passive
income sources. Passive income
is income that's coming in that doesn't
require any extra time or resource
effort from yourself or your staff.
I'm sure that I will come out of my cashflow funk
very soon. I've got a range of
products I'm looking to launch which
will go a long way to increasing my
passive income. I'm also reviewing my
product and service offering in general
to make sure that I'm spending
time and effort in the areas that have
the highest earning potential. And also
I'm heightening my sales and
marketing efforts so as to win new
business and reduce reliance on my top
two clients. So lots happening.
I do hope that today's video has been useful for
you and you've had a bit of a
look into my personal situation.
And I guess it tells you that even business
consultants don't always get it
right for themselves and
we all struggle. But the key is not
to let it get you down - at least for too
long! - review what's happened, try
and assess where the issues are,
make a plan and then stick to the plan.
That's #AskMeOnMonday for this week.
