How dedicated are you when it comes to your business?
I recently stumbled across this story about a kid who literally was walking 10 miles through snow and ice to get to a job interview to earn minimum wage. Now most of us would find that unbelievable and would think that person is crazy for going through all that trouble just to get a job at Dairy Queen. What that tells me is that kid is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. He didn't have enough money to catch the bus, and I would also guess that this young man isn't on social media either. Had he been, he may have tried to network with friends and family to locate himself a job that was closer to home. However this story has a silver lining.

Peak Mindset Coaching Goes To Pinterest For Business Ideas!
Recently, I converted my personal Pinterest account into a business account for Peak Mindset because there is a lot of potential. For anybody who has a little time and wants to be crafty, Pinterest is a hot bed for ideas. Honestly, I never thought I would see so much potential with this site but boy was I wrong. Aside from the high quality photos, jokes, and various crafts, there are many benefits to those looking to make money.
For anyone looking to start a business, this is a great avenue to do so. If you haven't had a chance to check out this hugely popular site, now is the time to get it.
Time Vortex
Be warned you can get sucked in for hours and hours like I did at first because there are so many facinating things to explore.
Exploring Ideas
I recently spoke to a coaching client of mine who was looking for extra income and possibly a way to start a new business. We talked and interestingly enough she hadn't been to the site in a long time and didn't really know what all the hype was. She laughed at me because its not everyday you hear a 34 year old guy get excited about a predominately female geared site.
How it works
So I started explaining all the wonderful things that could be done with Pinterest since she is extremely crafty. To make a short story long, use the categories and/or search for DIY projects. As you search through the 1000's of random things that blow my mind as to what you can do, find things that you feel you can make and enjoy, that people would pay money for. Pick a few items and give it a try and start to explore the endless possibilities that Pinterest can offer. If you would like help coming up with more ways that Pinterest can help you grow or create business for you, feel free to contact Peak Mindset Coaching. Comment on this article if you have had experience making money or know somebody who has had success on Pinterest.

What are you waiting for?
We have Mondays and the first day of twelve months to signal a beginning. I can relate to these times as a fresh start to begin working towards a goal. It's only October and I would be willing to bet that when it comes to a healthier lifestyle, someone, somewhere is planning to make a change January 1, 2013 – the traditional New Year resolution. Really? Why not start today, right now, to do something you know will improve your quality of life?

It’s a great time to be an entrepreneur—in the last decade, technology has leveled the playing field and propelled an entrepreneurial revolution.
