    The Final Four: Health; Wealth; Fame; and Family

    by Vincent L. Rogers

    In the Christian Bible, there are numerous useful prescriptions for living a meaningfullife. Most of them are also relevant in the areas of success planning and personal

    branding. One of, if not the most important of these Biblical maxims can be found in theBook of Proverbs. Proverbs 20:10 states that Even a child is known by his actions, bywhether his conduct is pure and right.... Simply stated, a person shall be known by whatthey do with the bountiful gifts and talents that they have possessed since they were achild.

    However, many of us remain acutely focused on the superficial goals of a child, insteadof the loftier pursuits of our higher selves. We set a goal to become thin instead of

    becoming healthy, in order to change our childhood perception of being the fat kid. Weset a goal to earn extreme financial wealth because we grew up poor of worldly

    possessions, even if we grew up in a family that enjoyed vast moral and spiritualabundance. Most importantly, we set a goal to achieve fame based on hollowachievements, rather than being renowned because of a well earned reputation for excellence.

    Fame and Wealth are the most outwardly visible manifestations of success. Yet celebrityand fortune can be achieved just as easily by a drug dealer as it can be by a heart surgeon.Achieving your place of distinction in the world by doing things the right way will enableyou to truly enjoy the prosperity that it brings. Doing things the right way means doingthings in a way that allows you to maintain your health and sanity as well as your familyand friendships.

    The importance of balancing your quest for fame and fortune with good physical andmental health habits, along with nurturing your family and friendships is inestimable.Focusing on these things in turn will also contribute greatly to the pursuit of the goals thatwill lead you to fame and fortune. It is inconceivable that you can achieve the successyou desire weighed down by physical illness and besieged by emotional anxiety.Conversely, a person who neglects his friendships and family is unlikely to have successat building the necessary network that will help them to achieve the fame and wealth thatthey so greatly desire.

    Health; Wealth; Fame; and Family are the four pillars of living a successful and balancedlife. Good health and strong family alone are the essential measures of a life well lived.Yet many people strive to leave some legacy of their lifes work as well. Achieving ameasure of material wealth and a level of high esteem associated with your name can also

    benefit your family. Acquiring these things gives you and your loved ones a better chance of living a long healthy life filled with joy and abundance.

This is true whether you are embarking on a personal endeavor, a professional enterprise or taking a risk inany area of your life in which you are seeking to be successful.

    In order to obtain the data you need to make the best decisions, you have to ask the rightquestions. Asking the right questions is not as easy as it sounds. Most of the time, wetend to ask the question that will give us the answers that we want to hear. Instead, wemust have the courage to ask the right questions. This is the most effective way to gainthe information we need to be successful at what we are trying to accomplish.

    More often that not, we tend to seek out the information we are looking for from peoplewho have no expertise in the area in which we are seeking advice. When it comes toobtaining the information you need to reach the highest levels of success, you mustconsult subject matter experts, thought leaders and change agents that can provide youwith high quality answers to the right questions. Ultimately, if you input good data intothe formulation of your Success Plan , chances are excellent that you will end up with a

    Initiative: When Passion Meets Purpose

    by Vince Rogers

    Initiative is an absolutely essential component of an effective Success Plan. Yet it is very

    often the most regularly disregarded of the Six Keys to Success. The renowned science-fiction writer A ld o u s H u x l e y h yp o th e si z e d t h a t E very civilization is, amongother things, an arrangement for domesticating the passions of men and setting them todo useful work. Huxleys statement recognizes that there are two key conditions thatare essential to a persons realization of their highest human potential.

    In order for a person to achieve a higher purpose, they must have a passion for somethingworthwhile. In order to convert that passion into positive change, it is necessary to havean organized strategy for transforming passion into purposeful action. When passionmeets purpose the result is achievement. The willingness to act boldly, consistently and

    purposefully is the key to effectively implementing your Success Strategy .

    Yet there are still many visionary, well conceived, well intentioned ideas that the world isstill waiting for. Throughout history, magnificent strides have been made by men of action to further our human race. At least one of these bold new ideas for innovation andnew enterprises probably lies dormant within you. In order to convert your passion into atangible dynamic force for positive change, you have to create your Success Plan . Thenyou must consistently and purposefully take the initiative to work that plan every singleday.

    Image: Protect Your Good Name

    by Vince Rogers

    William Shakespeare is considered to be the greatest arbiter of Western Literature to haveever lived. In his masterpiece of treachery and envy, Othello, he may have also deliveredthe most useful idiom to remember while continuously building your personal brand. InAct 3, Scene 3, of the play, the villainous Iago delivers a soliloquy that summarizes theessence of building your brand and managing your reputation:

    "Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,Is the immediate jewel of their souls.Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing;'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands;But he that filches from me my good name

    Robs me of that which not enriches him,And makes me poor indeed."

    Personally, I first learned these powerful words from my beloved grandmother manyyears ago. She tried to instill this valuable lesson in me time and time again. Grandmawas a great proponent of Strategic Branding and Reputation Management long beforethese terms were in vogue. She just prescribed these maxims under the general heading of lessons you need to learn in order to be regarded as a good person .

    Nowadays numerous books, seminars, dvds and cd programs are available to purchase onthe topics of personal branding, brand management reputation management and variousnuances and augmentations of these themes. Many of these products have informationthat is vital and if applied can make a great deal of impact in your life. As you continue tofollow this blog, I will share many such valuable tools and resources that I havedeveloped or researched especially for you. However, I am convinced that many of themost essential, powerful and easily implementable keys to building your brand are thethings you learned just as I did as a child.

    I have identified Six Keys to Success that are essential to building a winning Success Plan . While these attributes are the key to implementing your overall Success Strategy ,they are also integral to building your personal brand as well. These Six Keys to Success have been adapted to meet the complex demands of modern day enterprise building.However, you should realize very quickly that they are based on simple lessons thatwe've all learned over the years. Integrity in dealing with people, common sense inmatters of good judgment and exercising good stewardship over the resources at your disposal are the essential requirements for successful personal branding.

    1) Information: Become known as a trustworthy subject matter expert in your field.

    2) Image: Go out into the world every day and look, sound and act the way you want to be treated.

    3) Initiative: Always act on the basis of sound planning and good research, which leads tothe pursuit of effective strategy.

    4) Confidence: Through dedicating your self to winning small victories, you will beemboldened with the confidence that you've done your best; this will be the basis of themomentum that propels you to success.

    5) Capital: The greatest source of future revenue and profits for your business will bedetermined by the purchasing and cost decisions you make today.

    6) Contacts: You must assemble a winning team. You alone will never possess all of theskills and abilities required for perfection, nor will you ever be able to earn everycertification or degree needed to answer every question.

    In summary: You and you alone are responsible for controlling the quality of your brand.The image you present and the information you transfer to the public are signs of your dedication to quality and the soundness of your ideas. Many vital aspects contribute tosuccessfully building a powerful personal brand. In most instances, if we would heed thevital life lessons we learned from our parents, grandparents and even the sage wisdomfrom the tales written by the Bard of Avon, we would be just fine. The answers we seek most often come when we remember to keep it simple, keep it honest and keep itconsistent.

    Confidence Winning Small Victories

    by Vince Rogers

    The musician Michelle Shocked once lamented that I'm a perfectionist, which I think isa mistake. When it comes to achieving ultimate success, the devil may indeed be in thedetails. However, when it comes to successfully launching, establishing and furtheringyour enterprise, agonizing over every aspect of your project will make it a heck of a lottougher to complete. In many instances the paralysis of perfectionism has scuttled themost ambitious enterprises before they were ever launched.

    Most entrepreneurs, leaders and high achievers tend to be Big Picture people. They canvisualize a bustling metropolis with behemoth skyscrapers and even the forthcoming

    bicentennial celebration of the town. However, buying the perfect paper to draw the preliminary plans can bring about a state of mental paralysis. This type of fastidiousintellectual exertion will bring on eventual burn-out. The overwhelming angst of getting every detail just right often causes us to get nothing done at all.

    When faced with a bout of amateurcrastination brought about by perfectionist panic,it is helpful to dedicate yourself to winning small victories. Winning small victories

  • 8/3/2019 The Very Best of Disguised Limits

    20/52

    means continuously completing some part of the project that you are working on rightnow. It may not always be possible to complete the part of the project that you planned toin the order that you envisioned it. Nevertheless, the surest way to get yourself unstuckis to achieve the personal victory of accomplishing something that leads to ultimate

    project completion. You must vow to accomplish meaning complete some part of your project every single day.

    The simple wisdom of the great leadership strategist Sun Tzu should be the daily mantraof all burgeoning entrepreneurs, aspiring leaders and everyone seeking to Discover Life'sUnlimited Opportunities!!!! As he pronounced millennia ago, it is true indeed that A

    journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. By winning small victoriesevery day, you will be emboldened with the confidence that you've done your very best.This will be the catalyst that propels you to ultimate success.

    Contacts: Career Branding Using LinkedIn

    by Vincent L. Rogers

    In the brave new world of "social networking" websites, it can be difficult to resist

    the urge to mix business with pleasure. We often hear of anecdotal references topeople, especially young people in the early stages of building a career having

    negative outcomes because of decision makers "Googling" there FaceBook pages

    and reading their random Twitter "Tweets". Potential bosses and co-workers are

    allowed to bear witness to them engaging in various youthful acts of

    indiscriminate activities that can hinder their career and professional mobility.

    Although tailoring the privacy settings of your account should suffice to prevent

    these intrusions into your online realm, the more purely social sites are not really

    the proper setting to build your professional brand in the first place - unless of course you are a burgeoning club promoter, top bikini model or stand-up comic.

    FaceBook is very popular with young professionals. It provides access to a wide

    array of fun applications, games and social events. It can also be used as a tool to

    help brand yourself. You may do this by posting relevant content to your page

    that can be read by your "friends".

    Twitter is another widely popular portal to the world of social networking. It

    allows you to communicate succinct messages to your "followers". The site also

    allows you to follow important contacts. You can even send targeted messages to

    key people.

  • 8/3/2019 The Very Best of Disguised Limits

    23/52

    However, for the most part both of these sites give users access to a wide array of

    purely fun applications. Because the goal is primarily to have fun, most people

    have a hard time presenting a cohesive professional image using these sites.

    Instead, many people who attempt to use these sites to help build their personal

    brand, can't resist engaging in the less professional offerings that drive the

    success of social networking sites. Ultimately, they end up with pages consisting

    of a mix of some pertinent information peppered with an assortment of cool, but

    potentially damaging pictures, random quasi-humorous "tweets" and other non

    essential content.

    When it comes to career and professional branding and positioning, LinkedIn

    www.linkedin.com is a more relevant social networking tool. It can be most

    adequately utilized to establish a well conceived, powerful and consistentpersonal branding strategy on the World Wide Web. LinkedIn allows you to be

    proactive with your branding strategy, rather than hoping that the right people

    see your posts on the other social sites and that after reading the information

    they somehow "get" you.

    Of course with any successful branding strategy, you must take the time to

    conceive and execute a plan that addresses your desired outcome. This strategy

    should achieve the dual goal of positioning you as an expert and networking withthe people who you want to make aware of your expertise. There are essentially 3

    Keys to Creating a Successful Branding Strategy on LinkedIn:

    1) Create a Powerful Profile page.

    2) Strategically Build Your Network of Contacts.

    3) Join the Right Groups.

    These three topics will be covered in more depth in future articles.

  • 8/3/2019 The Very Best of Disguised Limits

    24/52

    In the mean time, the keys to personal branding that you will need as you start to

    use LinkedIn are the same skills you will need as you pursue any personal

    branding strategy. As you build your profile on LinkedIn, remember that you are

    attempting to position yourself as a trustworthy subject matter expert in your

    field. Then as you pursue the task of building your contacts, keep in mind that

    you must assemble a winning team in order to achieve long-term career and

    professional success. To further acquaint yourself with the keys to building a

    powerful personal brand, please read the article Protect Your Good Name .

    Capital: Optimizing Purchase and Cost Decisions

    by Vincent L. Rogers

    It has been said that the number one reason for business failure is under-capitalization. Yetstories abound of legendary business successes that lacked adequate resources in their formativestages. Conversely, well capitalized businesses often fail miserably. What ultimately proves to bethe key reason for the success of most businesses is passionate entrepreneurial leadership andvisionary strategic planning.

    Yet when it comes to business success, money certainly matters. However, in many cases it isnthow much cash you have access to that determines viable cash flow. More importantly, spendingthe cash that you have efficiently has the greater impact on long-term business success or failure.The greatest source of future revenue and profits for your business will be determined by the

    purchasing and cost decisions you make today.

    In fact, many well capitalized businesses tend to purchase things outright with their cash rather than pursue other more optimal ways of acquiring the things they need. Some well capitalized

    businesses often tend to try to find a reason to buy everything; instead of finding a way to avoid buying anything. In many instances, having the money to buy something often creates the false perception that the company can afford acquisitions that are often ill-advised or moreappropriate at a later date. Should the business ultimately fail, they are then stuck with a lot of illiquid assets on their balance sheet and defaulted loans or angry investors.

  • 8/3/2019 The Very Best of Disguised Limits

    27/52

    It is important that you look at each cost and purchase decision you make as a link in your value-chain. In other words, does the associated cost and terms of making this acquisition addlong term value to my business? Does making this expenditure enable me to offer a higher quality product or service to my customer? Making purchasing and cost decisions in this wayalso puts you in the habit of thinking about your business strategically at all times.

    Making good purchase decisions doesnt always mean getting the lowest price. Spending a fewdollars more for a higher quality product or with a better established supplier can often lead tomore satisfied customers, quicker delivery times and even gaining referral business from thesupplier. Also, it may be possible through negotiation to convert a prospective vendor into a

    business partner instead. Sometimes this can be done without having to pay anything.

    For instance, it may be worth more to the local sandwich shop to cater your roundtable meetingof local Executives for free or reduced costs in order to market their business to the purchasingmanagers and decision-makers attending the conference. You should always be looking to cutdeals that benefit your bottom line, rather than being a free spender of your companys scarceresources. Other ways to cut costs may be to share office space with strategic companies,

    bartering your goods and services in exchange for the things you need and buying used officeequipment and furniture rather than buying these things new.

    It may not always be easy to weigh every factor of each individual purchase. However, failing toexamine the key factors of buying may prove to be disastrous. As the fictional character GordonGekko stated in Wall Street, the classic Hollywood film A fool and his money are luckyenough to get together in the first place." As difficult as it is to find the money to start and growa successful business, surely the last thing you want to do is make the avoidable cost and

    purchasing decisions that often lead to ultimate business failure.

    Using Professional Photography to Build Your Brand by Vince Rogers

    There is an old adage that says A picture is worth a thousand words. To state it another way, a bad picture makes zero impact. These days it may be possible to take good pictures and createeffective headshots yourself. However, you may want to consider using a professional

    photographer to gain the maximum impact for your brand.

    Cost effective and easy to use digital cameras have given the masses access to tools that wereonce only accessible to professionals. While technology has somewhat leveled the playing field,

    the techniques employed by a professional photographer may be what your branding effortsreally require. The strategic usage of the right photo of you receiving a big award, making animportant public appearance or achieving a significant career milestone can pay big dividends.You may not want to trust the responsibility of capturing that big moment to your significantother or next door neighbor.

    According to Atlanta native and noted celebrity photographer Quinn Hood of Global Images,Celebrities and high profile people continue to utilize professional photographers because of the expertise they bring in the way of composition, lighting and other key technical aspects of taking a great photo. Hood has photographed such celebrities as U2 front man Bono, baseball

    legend Hank Aaron, and pioneering music producer Dallas Austin. Over the years, he has also built a vital relationship with movie star Chris Tucker. The world famous comedian has foundQuinns services so essential to building his brand, that he has flown him to Africa on severaloccasions to capture his many photo ops with foreign dignitaries and world leaders.

    Even though a photo is just a still image, it should tell a dynamic story. The background,foreground, subject placement and framing of a photo are the elements of a shoot that good

    professional photographers are paid to combine to make a winning photograph. According toHood, The subject is just one element of a good shot, my job is to make the subject into a verb then the person looking at it turns it into a complete sentence. The story that sentence tells toyour audience will determine how they will remember your brand.

    by Vince Rogers

    The question of the day when it comes to branding, promoting and marketing products andservices is how can I use new media effectively? The catch-all phrase new media refers tothe advent of technological advancements in computers, communications technology andcomputer-enabled communications devices. Most importantly, the internet has made it possibleto reach potential customers in ways that were unimaginable just a few years ago. It is clear that

    using these new platforms effectively is essential to building, promoting and maintaining your brand. The most important question to consider then is what new media vehicle can I use toreach the customers I need to reach?

    Atlanta Business RadioX http://atlantabusinessradiox.com offers a very cost-effective solutionto this problem that gives marketers a considerable Bang for the Buck. The station enablesmarketers to produce talk shows and informational programs that are uniquely targeted tospecific audiences. These programs are broadcast live over the internet to their regular listeners.However, the greatest benefit is to be gained by using the podcasts of the programs to reachyour network of clients and potential prospects in your targeted branding efforts.

    At the helm of Atlanta Business RadioX is veteran producer Lee Kantor. According to Kantor,People do business with people they know. And whats a better way to get to know someonethan by interviewing them on your own internet radio talk show?
