Good Monday morning to you,

A friend of mine recently approached me after reading a booklet I wrote a few years ago titled Overcoming Stage 2 Stall. The booklet addresses symptoms and remedies for four of the leading causes of this condition.

In this Monday Morning Notes series, I respond to his request by expanding on remedies for one of the causes I call Checking Out.

If you’d like a copy of the booklet, you can download it for free at Violand.com/stage-2-stall.

Enjoy!

If we open our minds wide enough we can find inspiration in just about anything and anyone. The challenge can be to avoid becoming uninspired when life doesn’t go the way we want it to.

In today’s Note, I offer a few suggestions on how to find inspiration while avoiding the pitfalls that can test our resolve. 

It’s never fun doing an autopsy of a failed business. It’s even more unpleasant when it involves a family business. Liquidating the assets and turning the lock on the door that one last time is gut-wrenching.

While today’s Note relates to a family business, the message is the same for non-family businesses. Included are a few suggestions on how to avoid this unpleasant situation.

Enjoy!
