Good Morning Team – Super Bowl advertising you and I can use.

Kauffman Foundation Super Bowl ad calls on entrepreneurs
by Jose Pagliery CNNMoney February 1, 2012 5:19am

The $2 billion nonprofit that focuses on fostering U.S. entrepreneurship is running its first ever TV ad, and it’s doing it during the Super Bowl.

The animated 30-second commercial, is part of its campaign to inspire everyday Americans to launch their own businesses. “We want people to understand anyone can have a great idea. And if you have great commitment and passion, you can try that idea out,” said Wendy Guillies, a spokeswoman for the foundation. “The end goal is that we have more people who start businesses and succeed in them.”

Directing a call to entrepreneurial arms toward nacho-munching Average Joes during a football game might sound strange, but Guillies said that’s exactly who the foundation is targeting with its campaign. Many successful entrepreneurs started off as Average Joes or Average Josephines and many of the companies advertising during the Super Bowl started with just one person with an idea.

“The next great entrepreneur is out there. Will it be you?” the narrator asks.–

Bill’s Note: This commercial will surely start many discussions and will open the door for you and I to speak with people about the many possibilities that come with starting your own business. Many people discuss the Super Bowl ads for days so whether you’re a Fracnchise owner, Network Marketer, a small business owner looking to expand or a Business Coach like me; this is advertising you can capitalize upon.

Fat Doctors are Less Likely to Help Patients Lose Weight
By Alice Park, Time, January 30, 2012

It inspires confidence when a dentist has good teeth, or a hairstylist has a chic ‘do, or when the salesperson at a boutique has an immaculate sense of personal style.

In a study of 500 primary care physicians around the country, researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found that…Overweight or obese physicians were less likely to discuss weight loss with heavy patients.

What’s more, the researchers found that 93% of doctors diagnosed obesity in their patients only if they believed their own weight was equal to or less than their patients’

Compared with overweight doctors, slim physicians were more confident in their ability to dispense advice about diet and exercise to heavier patients, and 72% believed that they should be models of healthy weight for their patients.

Doctors who have successfully lost weight and who eat well and exercise regularly are more likely to share their own experiences with patients, making it more likely that their patients will in turn follow their advice. —

Bill’s Note: The best advice I’ve ever received was that the quickest way to get a certain result was to find someone who had already achieved that result and ask them to assist you. One of the ways that translates in your business is to find, acquire, hire a mentor or coach.

Good Morning Team – Reading the Declaration naturally led back to my friend TJ

“We are the friends of liberty everywhere, custodians only of our own.”

–Thomas Jefferson

James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution of the United States, said this:

“We have staked the whole future of all our political constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves to govern ourselves according to the moral principles of the Ten Commandments.”

Every time you get on airplane you’re told to put your mask on first, then assist others.

In the small business world, new business owners, leaders-to-be, sometimes make the mistake of micro-managing.

True leaders show their employees, co-workers, peers groups what to do – by doing it first. They walk the talk and do the DO.

“Leadership is getting people to willingly do more than they ordinarily would do”

–Ret. Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf

Leaders lead by example and leverage follows.
