Yea, You Are In Control

Garth Beyer

You have certain tasks you have to do. You have standards, deadlines or quotes that you have to meet. You may not have control of what you have to do.

But you do have control of how you do it. (Yes, even when you think you don’t!)

The reason you always have control of how you do it, even if you were given specific instructions to follow, is that what those instructions produce could be better. It’s not remarkable people who discover ways to improve something. It’s those who discover ways to improve something that become remarkable.

You are in control. Better start believing (and acting!) on it.

Making Old Jobs New

Garth Beyer

The unemployment rate is despicable. It’s not because more jobs aren’t being created, they are. It’s the fact that the new jobs are replicating the ones that have always been used.

If we want the unemployment rate to go down, if we want to do real, honest and passionate work, if we want to look forward to work (something that is necessary to want the unemployment rate down), then we need to make old jobs new, not make new old jobs.

Currently, a worker’s pay is based on compensation, of the hours put into work. What it needs to be based off of is creativity deliberation, not compensation. Simple terms: paid to go in and make a ruckus.

Through that ruckus, we see improvement, new development, a fresh way of thinking, creativity and above all, results that mean something, not just numbers on a financial statement.

That doesn’t mean you need a new job, a better job or a second job, it has nothing to do with making more jobs, it’s about transforming new ones out of the old ones. It’s about doing the ones we do now differently, creatively and passionately.

We’re all self-employed even if we have a job, that’s a given, but to leave it at just “self-employed” doesn’t do any good, it doesn’t call for an action, a direction to take. We’re all “self-employed artists“, capable to be original in our thought processes straight to the core of what we create in our jobs.

Through our artistry, we can change, improve and develop our jobs into something magnificent. Something worth waking up for each day. It is through this that we can discover new ways to do the job better, more efficiently, uniquely and to serve and benefit people even more.

Most importantly, this is the way we can end the idea of an unemployment rate.

Manage Twitter To Manage Success

Garth Beyer

If you don’t manage your money, it will manage you. If you don’t manage your time, it will manage you. If you don’t manage your to-do list, it will manage you. If you don’t manage your social media, it will manage you.

Social media is not used to get popular, known, or for a start-up – despite thousands of people’s efforts. Social media, like Twitter, is used as a link to the rest of the world AFTER you begin to attain a degree of success.

Yes, Twitter and other social media tools work best when they are set up and prepared for people to find, but too many people devote too much time to it. People use social media like a machine gun with unlimited ammo when it really works best to load up and let your followers pull the trigger.

2% of your energy is more than enough to devote to Twitter and other social media each day to keep connections. Keep, not make.

You want people to find you. If you spend 98% of your time finding other people, 1 in 200 will actually want your service. What happens when you put that 98% toward your self-employment? People start pulling triggers.
