    Five Simple Steps To Double Your Income
    Are you TIRED of Setting GOALS and NOT achieving them?You are not alone! In fact, only 5% of the population even has goals and fewer than that actually put pen to paper and write them down! So, kudos to you for even having the guts to write them in your journal!My intention is NOT to get cau
    Before any document is finalized, you need to let someone else take a look at it. I cannot stress enough the significance of this step!

    • Feedback sharpens your final product even though it may drive you crazy, take time, or make you feel like you’ve bared your soul to the world.

    • Feedback does not mean you have to give up your voice or throw out what you’ve written. Feedback does not equate with criticism.

    • Feedback is getting another perspective—that of the different audiences who will read your document.

    • Feedback means that when you hand the document over for review, you ask for specific suggestions from your reader, not just a pat on the back. By getting concrete answers to the questions below, you will be armed with crystal-clear ideas. Also, think about soliciting help from at least two people unlike you in personality.

    • Feedback raises the expectation in the organization that words are important and that writing well is a shared goal.

    Who you are professionally is mirrored in your writing. Taking time for feedback can avert the loss of revenue, image, or clients. A superintendent of a large urban school district said, “I check my ego at the door and listen intently to the advice and ideas of others.” A CFO of a large hospital concurred. “I will always ask others to read my material. The first question is ‘What does this say to you?’”

    Start by making a feedback sheet with some or all of the following questions on it. Clip it to your document and circulate to people you trust to give you honest feedback.

    Have I been specific enough?

    Do I support my ideas with evidence that is objective?

    Do I present opposing points of view in an objective manner?

    Show Me The Green
    There was a time that one could assume that the phrase ‘show me the green' was interchangeable with ‘show me the money' (and in some respects it still is), but today it's really taking on a whole new meaning – it's a phrase with a movement behind it.We, the people, are changing our view of green as
