BLOG 1 – How to set your brain up to run a successful business
Are you fatigued with the sheer effort that it takes to run your business?
Keeping your business profitable is probably the hardest thing you do every day and leaves you worn out both physically and mentally.
There is no doubt you are working your brain to the max…
There is no doubt at the end of most working days your head is full to bursting point…
There is no doubt on countless occasions at the end of one of these days, one of your team has come into your office to tell you some vital information and you have used the words,
“I simply don’t have the head space for this!”
But what if I was to say you are not using your brain in the right way…not in the way it was designed.
In fact, most of us constantly ask the brain to do what it can’t!
However, there is another way, a better way, a better way to use your business brain…
Click here to learn that when you better use your business brain you maximise the success of your business.
BLOG 2 – Actively focus your business brain for the best business results
Multi-tasking…
If you ask most members of your team, they will say they multi-task regularly – they want to sound productive, efficient and effective in their role.
And it’s one word that appears on every CV you have ever received.
But the reality is, if you want a job in your business done well, accurately and completed on time, it should not be done alongside other jobs…
Given the busy nature of your business, you are likely to ask one of your team to complete a task alongside all the other tasks they have…
They will undoubtably say yes – no one wants to say no to the boss after all.
But their business brain will not like it, their business brain knows already that if this task is to be done well, accurately and on time, it cannot be done alongside anything else.
When tasks compete for the same space in your brain, the quality of the results of all the tasks is diminished.
Simply speaking, multi-tasking is attempting to do a few things at once while doing none of them properly.
For example – you drive into your car park at work or at your local supermarket, listening to your favourite radio station or CD in your car.
You then have to reverse into a tight parking space, with cars on either side.
So, you need to concentrate…
What’s the first thing you do?
You turn your car radio off or turn the volume down…
This is your brain telling you that you cannot deal with these 2 competing forces – if you leave the radio on, your brain will not be at full capacity to deal with parking your car.
It’s the same in business – when you focus on 2 important jobs at the same time you will not achieve the high level of accuracy expected…

BLOG 3 - Use your brain the way nature intended for the best business results
When you do more work and better work in less time you will better impress your customers, win more customers and grow your profitability.
Chances are, when your business does more work and better work in less time you’ll beat your competition hands down.
So how do you increase your chances of winning?
Use your brain the way nature and evolution intended
Not the way most people and most business owners use it
Use your brain to better manage your business decisions
Overwhelming scientific proof shows that when we humans do two ‘thinking’ tasks at the same time, our ‘thinking’ capacity drops from that of a graduate to that of an eight-year-old.
For example, how accurate would you be if asked to press a left foot pedal when a low musical note sounded and a right foot pedal when a high musical note sounded?
You would be 100% accurate.
BUT – if you were asked to do this and then at the same time given a simple maths question (8+3) what would happen?
You would be 50% accurate.
Or so say hundreds of experiments carried out by many researchers over 3 decades.
When you use your business brain in the right way you’ll gain a competitive advantage and achieve the results you want for your business.
When you better manage the decision-making part of your brain you will make better business decisions…
Click here to learn how – don’t leave it to chance…
BLOG 4 – Are you paying enough attention to the most powerful asset you have?
Running a successful business, you are busy… too busy probably.
You probably (always) have far too much to do…
Just dealing with the overwhelming number of emails you receive every day can be disproportionately time consuming, let alone meetings, problems from your team, unexpected calls or visitors, new or changing technology and keeping up with the competition.
All these daily pressures on your time and brain can overwhelm any business owner and that’s before you have even worked out how to continue to make money and grow your business.
Master the most complex thing in the known universe – your brain – and you’ll be more successful!
This might be easier than you think…
Evolution has already done most of the hard work for you.
Small thing, big difference…
The world’s neuroscientists agree. They suggest that one small part of your brain - your personal ‘stage’ - (approximately 4% of your brain’s capacity), determines how successful you are.
Or, more accurately, the way you choose to use this 4% of your brain and work this ‘stage’ determines how successful you are.
Click here to find out how to better use the 4% that is your prefrontal cortex and you’ll build a better business.
BLOG 5 – Build and use a better business brain by being a better stage director
Learning to focus and make the most of the 4% of your brain that is your prefrontal cortex is essential to prevent you from drifting into autopilot allowing your business to flounder aimlessly.
Otherwise, you’re less able to make good decisions, control impulses, solve problems, set goals and plan ahead.
And of more concern, if you stay on autopilot you will not even be aware your business is drifting off-course and the worst-case scenario is that if you don’t take action in time, you might not be able to recover!
However, there is hope…
In his brilliant book ‘Your Brain at Work’ David Rock captures over 300 research papers and more than 1000 brain and psychological studies and suggests a brilliant way to look at your 4% is to see it as a very small stage where your thoughts are the actors – bear with me…
Ask a group of children to act out a stage production with no direction or support – what would happen?
A confused set of events with the most confident children hogging the stage as much as possible.
The play would be poor, parents would not be pleased.
Your stage play – like your brain – works much better when you choose the actors (your thoughts) and direct the actors.
Direct well and you prioritise the most important scenes and bring the right actors to the stage at the right time.
When you take control of your work actors (your thoughts on the jobs that need to be done) and how they appear on your very small stage, you will take control of the play.
Click here to learn the secrets to directing the 4% of your brain that matters most in business so that you can choose the most critical jobs and decisions, giving them the focus, they deserve.
BLOG 6 – Make prioritising a priority in your business
Your pre-frontal cortex is the 4% of your brain that when used as nature intended will deliver you the business success your desire.
But is does have its limitations:
it’s tiny – its only 4%, and therefore can only cope with 1,2,3 things at one time
it does not like distractions – like actors in a play it can only perform one thing at a time – so it is your job to limit distractions and stay focused
it wears out fast – it’s not a Duracell bunny – like any muscle, when used it gets tired – so your job is to prioritise the things that matter whilst your brain is at its freshest
Your job is to prioritise your priorities - as your very first job of the day.
Prioritising involves making decisions – sometimes tricky ones – decisions are better and more easily made when your brain in fresh – when your 4% is fully charged.
Strangely enough, most people don’t choose to begin their day focussing on the No.1 priority, either because they haven’t worked out what it is or they if they know their No.1 priority they don’t work on it when their brain is freshest.
They prefer to wait till their brain is out of juice before tackling the most important job of the day. Like loading heavy boxes into a van after doing the 20 minutes of push-ups.
Make the prioritising decisions then get everything else ‘off your mental stage’ and focus on the things that matter most.
Recognise the limits of your brain and you will achieve better business success.
Click here to learn how to build a habit to prioritise what matters most – when you get focussed on focus you will improve your decisions, your interactions and the future success of your business.
BLOG 7 – 4 helping hands to help you build a better business brain and better business results
Most people at work at some point complain that they have too much to do and just can’t fit anymore in…
But is ‘over-work’ or ‘lack of time’ really the issue?
Or have we simply not been taught to use our time at work effectively?
One thing is certain – we’ve not been taught how to make best use of the most amazing, most advanced, most capable organ known to humankind – the human brain.
Instead when our brains are at their best we’re all guilty of choosing to do the brain-draining work of reducing our email inbox, answering phone call messages or other social media messages.
We’re using some of the vital energy in our brain for the most menial tasks – rather than focusing on the important issues of the day when our brains are at their freshest.
Because you have so many demands on your time and attention…
Because you want to succeed in business in an increasingly competitive business world…
Because it really pays to know much more about how to make the most of your business brain…
Here are 4 helping hands to get you going and help you build a better business brain and build better business results:
1) Be a better stage director of your business brain
Recognise the limits of your brain and be more conscious of your decision-making process.
2) Inhibit distractions
Internal and external influences will always seek to distract you, be aware of the distractions, even if it means turning your phone off and ignoring your emails. If you let them undermine your business brain, you will achieve less than you could.
3) Prioritise prioritising before your brain gets tired doing other work.
Don’t just fall into your usual daily routine, making a list of priorities should be the first thing you do every day when your brain is fresh.
4) Create undisturbed focus time
Customers, your team, meetings, calls, emails… many things demand your time and attention, however you only have up to 2 peak performing hours a day so plan them in and make them totally and utterly uninterrupted, unbroken and undisturbed.
