Our Starvation Survival Response - Success Routine.
McKinney, TX.
In the wild, two animals come across the paths of each other. They size each other up to determine threat or prey, their survival instincts force them to decide…do I feed and/or defend. Do I fight survive to live another day or do I die from hunger tomorrow. It is an instinct of limited resources, where if you do not seize or defend your meal of opportunity today, your competition will, and will continue to absorb that opportunity at your expense each day thereafter until you parish from starvation or finally defend your survival. It is what I call the Starvation Survival Response.
The unfortunate manner in American business is, our mentality often follows a similar pattern. I often say to make that initial success as a new business owner, sheer force of will is the most important attribute that will get you to a level past survival mode. We should wake up each morning with the sense of urgency, in a Starvation Survival Response mode that implies feed or famine.
It will be what drives you through tough times, it is the action that fuels what so many refer to these days as, “your Why”. If you have a “Why”, know this; it does push you through your tough times and challenges ahead but it is your “How” that gets you to your goal.
Your "how" is your ability to get things done. In short, it is the action you take each day that brings about progress and the consistent effort necessary to move and accelerate you towards your objectives and plans. "How", is the fuel for your journey that gets you to th “point B” - of your destination.
To me this is one of the success routines that becomes the single most important element for the self-employed and new business startups I can think of today. Using this Starvation Survival Response mentality (as our metaphor), your daily meal in American business is cash flow, your sales, your revenues. No sales no business, at best you have an expensive hobby. In business, cash flow is the nourishment efforts, you either feast or die. Simple as that…
The unfortunate thing for the self-employed is because they have successfully focused on this Starvation Survival Response mentality in the past, it incorrectly becomes a learned response for every encounter they navigate each day. It is this very thing that can defy their growth to new and higher levels business. Too often people meet in American business where their initial contact becomes very binary. They consider …is this person, predator or prey? Is this someone I must defend against or feast upon as my Starvation Survival Response?
But don’t stop there. For so many people, the answer is not fight or flight. You must allow the encounter to evolve to a higher mental capacity.
Once that binary competitive encounter has played out and boundaries of conflict resolved, your next level of prosperity comes in the ability to moves to a visibility of abundance. Somehow we holstering the guns of competition and step away from the wasteful energy given to eye to eye confrontation. We must evolve to the next stage of growth, which is to appreciate a posture that is more side by side. Setting a mentality of alignment and collaboration. If Cash Flow is the battle cry in the early stage of business, know the next step to accelerating your efforts is Leverage.
When "the How" is successfully defined by the efforts of 1, Leverage is the multiplier affect you get when you introduce the efforts of two. This is how to acceleration towards more abundance factored by synergy and a multiplier greater than 2!

Small Business Strategies - Real Estate ideas for a non real estate businesses.
McKinney TX.
If “Location…” is the single most important feature in the real estate world, what would be the same parallel battle cry for small and medium sized businesses……?
Well that will have to be – “Cash Flow…” Says Griffith, “I have been in the business world for on the plus side of 30 years, working for the largest of financial institutions to the smallest of startup niche enterprise ideas, without cash flow you have nothing, from a business standpoint! Even the best of ideas and products stuffed in the back corner of your hobby closet or garage are wasted if not exposed to the market as a product or service from which someone can be introduced to the idea of exchanging their money for your product or service.”
Once you solve for the Cash Flow equation, the next step is to protect and build valuation for your business from your cash flow success.
Most of us do this more or less naturally as our business performance builds out by going out and buying a home to live in, or up-scaling to a larger home. Then over time, maybe the business owners are successful for the better part of their business career and what are they left with…? Well, watching and seeing this scenario play out over the years, it is not unusual to find successful small business owners' whose business stops when they stop working in the business. What you are left with as business equity, value or wealth is in the house they bought to live in so many years prior.
This wealth creation as value was driven by cash flow from a successful business effort so to further scale this can (or should) the successful business owner stop everything, bring a full time effort as a real estate investor….? Well, in a word, No. But it does illustrate that small business owners do need to include and build some valuation as wealth a step removed from their daily business activities.
This is why we offers a comprehensive Real Estate solution for our clients. This is not a Guru, “set it and forget” seminar course. We are offering a learning solution that changes your mindset from effort, task, or even purpose to a strategic solution as an extension of your existing business success.
The package price is $20,000. One of the first editions from the program is the “Tax and Legal” segments. Says Griffith, “…this learning module alone can pay for your program cost in the first year, it details income alignment strategies into more favorable environments, and instructs improvement planning into your overall capital return rate. Better yet, it gives you a basis of conversation that directs your financial advisors and accounting staff in the training they are already familiar with but often difficult to introduce as "at risk" opportunity. This is all before you have even implemented your first purchase strategy. …now that is cash flow as ROI!”

New Business Enterprises - "How Do You Begin?".
How do you begin, with your new business, project or idea?
Well, it may start something like this…. if I were to ask most people like you to name your company for your new idea, most would have an answer in pretty short order, if not immediately. And so it will be, at that very moment, that your new business will be born. But the real story is this, our example illustrates a interesting idea that I have…. we all have a business idea, product, or service stored way in the back of our minds wanting to get out.
The same is true for existing business owners and leaders, if I asked them if they have any ideas or concepts about growing their business to a new level, most in pretty short order would have some degree of “elevator pitch” towards a plan as potential. But at the end of the day, while plenty of people are willing to make that leap for potential, most do not include a plan for gaining leverage on what is the most important asset that will exist in their business today, their data.
They do not have a plan for leveraging their data to grow and develop viability into their greatest potential. The reason that is important to you is the same reason it is important for us…. It is a basic and fundamental concept for any successful business. Here is the reason why: Those in need of data services already have activated some amount of leverage on their business. And so their effort becomes a statistical equation…. a + b +c = revenues/results.
Where ever revenues fall as a statistical value and relative to your expectations, the “reason why or how” that revenue number comes to that value, can be uncovered by examining the left side of that equation. If not, then we need to go back to rule number one; what are your solutions for cash flow and growth.
… Discovering that concept, is how to officially launch as a successful business today.
