In today's society where the buzz phrase is "Secret thinking" people seem to forget that regardless of whether you are dreaming and hoping for the best, you still need to get ready for the worst. When learning self defense, you mentally and physically practice the moves just in the event you are ever attacked. That won't mean you are focusing on the negative, but instead you are training your brain and body how you can act in an instinctive manner, whenever you will not have a chance for thought processes. In choir practice, you stand and sing as if you were actually performing. What you practice on will be the way you will react when it really is crunch time.

Even if your company's plate is full, it is vital to continue marketing so you always know where your next client is coming from. Always network; set a portion of a day aside a week to market your business, so you always know where your next client is coming from.

What about something more unexpected?
This week I was one of the chosen few to experience a computer crash. The computer has been sending signs for some time which it was preparing to quit the ghost, but with technology it really is never easy to predict what is simply a worm, spyware, adware, or perhaps a pending crash. I do not need to claim that for someone who runs their business completely from computer and a home office, having the main computer crash isn't an excellent thing. Fortunately for me, I had a plan in place.
When I work with clients to develop business plans, I more often than not get the same response when I get to the exit plan, or crisis plan. "I do not need that" Some individuals become impatient, some flat out insulted when it's time to discuss what you are going to do if something goes wrong. But one of the main tricks in becoming successful is to get ready for when things go wrong. Every crisis always started off small, it's only when the warning signs are ignored which it becomes an important issue. Do you have a contingency plan in place? Have you identified the potential crises that your company risks? Do you know what you are going to do if your delivery system goes on strike? What will be the crises you face now? Are you operating in "fireman mode"? Putting out Fire Watch Services after fire as they pop up, or do you have a plan in place to keep the fires from happening.
In my case I pay just a little bit every month for an online back up. Then I back everything up, daily. So after I corrected the cause of the crash, it was a simple matter to restore my back ups. Because I plan for the worst, and hope for the most effective, a lot of the times, it turns out that I worried for nothing. Still, on those occasions when something goes wrong, and believe me, almost nothing ever goes in line with Plan "A" it is always good to have a contingency plan in place.
