As promised, but a few days late, are a few life lessons that I’ll impart as I’ve entered my 50th year on the planet.

Life Lesson #1 – You’ll achieve what you concentrate on

Sounds obvious but it requires a little elaboration. Anything that you want to do or achieve requires concentration. Not just any concentration but a concentration that involves commitment and passion.

In business it’s not just a case of popping a few lines on a website and then hoping for the best. If you want to do something then you truly have to do it, full commitment, with all your heart and passion. Even in today’s economic climate, when you feel there’s no work out there, roll up your sleeves, get stuck in and find it.

This Life Lesson works in reverse also, if you concentrate on drinking too much then you’ll become an alcoholic; if you concentrate on any negative aspect you’ll also achieve this too unfortunately.

More tomorrow…
