Good morning,
It was great hearing news reports this week about Michigan organizations planning to expand their workforces. This raises the question, what traits are employers looking for when hiring?
When asked this question, a business owner conducting a recent seminar replied, “Confidence, above anything else.” So today's sunny note is a reminder to...
Believe in yourself.
When you have confidence that you can accomplish anything, anything can be accomplished. The world needs what you have to offer.
Believe it - and have a sunny day.

Cut Your Losses
Good morning,
Happy Friday! Sometimes in business you can "stay the course" and in time you’ll reach your goal. But what do you do when you discover you’re going the wrong way?
Change direction.
Too often we’re afraid to admit we’ve made a mistake and take corrective action. Once we’ve invested our time, money or ego we’re reluctant to give up on those investments. But when we find ourselves on the wrong path a willingness to accept losses and change direction can enable us to avoid even greater losses later.
Lester Thurow reminds us that sometimes, “A competitive world offers two possibilities. You can lose. Or, if you want to win, you can change.”
Let’s make the right call - and have a sunny day!

Write is Right
Good morning,
Happy Friday! Here's one of the simplest and most helpful keys to improving productivity.
Write it down.
Whether we're talking about things to do or information to remember, writing it down not only increases productivity but reduces stress. In fact, writing things down actually improves future recall. So even if we write something down and then throw away the paper (which I don't suggest) we're still more likely to remember the information than if we hadn't written it down in the first place.
Now who was I supposed to call this morning...?
Write away – and have a sunny day!

Touch Down
Good morning,
Happy Super Bowl Friday! Just like the Packers and Steelers, we all want to achieve great things. As we pursue our own unique dreams, our fears and anxieties are often our biggest obstacles.
"Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world."
That’s from Ralph Waldo Emerson, whose point is that fear and the paralysis that fear creates keep us from achieving our goals. We can overcome countless obstacles faced in life, but only if we look fear in the face, stare it down and take action.
Let’s bravely pursue our dreams – and have a sunny day!
