Have you ever wondered how others keep making things happen? Each letter in the word RELEVANT will give you an action step that you can use to move into greatness.
Read and proceed with 8 strategies that you can begin to implement today.
(R) Reinvent Yourself. Look at the career of Sean Combs. He started off as Puff Daddy. Puff Daddy emerged into P Diddy who innovatively became Diddy.
The fast pace of the internet allows you to create a brand in seconds. The time it takes you to set up a FaceBook or Twitter account is how long it will take you to get noticed.
(E) Enjoy what you do. Find the fun in your work. Search for ways to bring the happiness to your environment. When you are passionate and excited others will see and take notes. This makes it easier to make deals when you are wanted.
(L) Learn form others. Research what seminars are taking place in your area. Listen to podcasts and tele-seminars. Seek out a mentor who can take you to the next level. Watch videos of how people speak and conduct themselves.
(E) Entrepreneur your expertise. Use what you do best and give your job a rest. Use what you know to grow. Even if you never leave your job being in business will help you get some tax write offs.
(V) Visit your elders. Life is about paying dues and paying respect. Give back to the generation that has given to us. (Discuss hanging out with Bubba)
(A) Ask for feedback. Golden nuggets of wisdom are found when we ask those close to us how can we improve?
(N) No Your Way. You have to say no sometimes. Every opportunity is not for you. Learn what is for you and not for you. Learn how to make the most of each opportunity that is right for you.
(T) Teach others. Keep your legacy growing. We are taught so that one day we will teach. Passing on the knowledge keeps entire communities and cultures alive over centuries.
In these days and times in order to be relevant you have to reinvent yourself so you can enjoy what you do. When you learn from others you can entrepreneur your expertise. Take time out to visit your elders and ask for feedback. When you no your way and teach others the life you leave behind will be forever relevant.

How To Use Your Skills
by Encouragement Speaker Derrick Hayes
Everyone has a God given ability or skill that can be used to inspire and motivate others. A skill is defined by Dictionary.com as an ability to use one’s knowledge effectively in doing something. In Thessolonians 4:11-12, a foundation is given for “How To Use Your Skills”, The scripture says “And that ye study to be quiet, and do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we command you; That you may walk honestly toward that are without, and that you may have lack for nothing.”
In order to know “How To Use Your Skills” you must know what your skills are, become an expert at what you do, network with others and use your skills to achieve dreams.
Is there something that you are good at or just like to do? The answer to this question can open up your life to many opportunities that may not have already come your way. I like to give speeches and write daily quotes.
Once you realize what you are good at, then it is time for you to capitalize on your efforts. You can be known as an expert in your industry by writing books, articles, columns and newsletters. Everything you do will develop your talents and increase your chances to succeed.
For example my father in law is a trained carpenter where he uses his talents to fix doors, and build houses while making sure people live in a comfortable environment. You can have a natural or trained ability that can lead you to start businesses, build careers or change lives.
You are reading this article because of networking. I was on-line networking while reading Robert Lee’s profile. I saw that he was a Director of Events. I sent him a message and we began to discuss opportunities on how we could work together in the future. After trading contact information one of the results was an opportunity to speak at an event he put together.
No matter where you come from there is an opportunity inside you that is waiting to come out. Find out what you can do and become great at it. On your way to the top don’t forget about others who can also benefit from networking with you.
We all have the skills to pay the bills. I hope you figure out “How To Use Your Skills” because my slogan is “Use Your Skills or Someone Else Will”.

How To Become A Tycoon
I grew up wanting to know how to make money and take my life to the next level. While networking with celebrities and millionaires from all over the world I started to ask them questions about how they became successful.
One of my many conversations was with Wahid Shakur who is better known as Mr. Tycoon. His brand name is Mr. Tycoon because he teaches others how to live their dreams by creating wealth through multiple income streams. I asked Mr. Tycoon to give me a step through each letter in the word TYCOON that others could implement into their life.
Here are 6 success strategies that you can use on a daily basis to become better at what you do.
(T) Think different. Open your mind to possibilities. New thinking can produce new results. In Romans 12:2 it says people will be transformed when they renew their mind. Start you’re your day off by reading books like The Power Of Positive Thinking, As a Man Thinketh and The Magic of Thinking Big to get your mind right. When you know you can grow.
(Y) Yearn for more. What do you wake and want to do? What would you do for free? This is your passion. There is a great book entitled Crush it by Gary Vaynerchuk that will help you cash in on your passion. You can only go as far as you want to go. A big dream is in you. Your purpose is to wake it up and take action.
(C) Create income streams. When your thinking is not stinking and your passion is on par the time is now for you to capitalize on opportunities. Turn things you can do right now into products and services. Don’t wait until tomorrow. Right now you can turn your knowledge into short reports and eBooks. When I’m not speaking money is made through the sale of Personalized Derricknyms and Motivation To Your Mobileä.
(O) Overcome obstacles. How you deal with obstacles can determine how far you go in life and business. I use optimism daily to help others overcome discouragement by giving them a WOE, a Word of Encouragement. Find the system that works for you. Things will happen and opportunities for destruction can knock on your door. Having good thoughts, a passionate future and seeing the opportunities you are blessed with can help you see the positive in your life so the negative doesn’t stay around.
(O) Offer to help. Find ways to give back to the next generation. Each day I get to work with the greatest minds in the world. Now the world wants and deserves to hear from greatness like you. As you rise reach out to be a mentor. In most cities there are Small Business Development Centers where you can share your expertise with upcoming entrepreneurs. If you want to work with youth there are organizations like Girls, Inc. and the Boys and Girls Club.
(N) Never quit. As a youth I loved to run and each day I’m awake I feel like I’m in the starting blocks. Love your life and put yourself in position so that you’re on track in your own lane. Many dreams end up dead and gone. They are in the cemetery. Destiny is on the phone and calling you out. What are you going to do? Mc Hammer said it best that you are “2 Legit To Quit”
You could be the next TYCOON so make up your mind, dream big, create businesses, overcome, help others, and never quit.

The TEEN Principle
Here is a formula for youth to find a business idea and build it into an enterprise.
T- Talent. Everyone has a gift. Look inside of you and find out what you do best and think of ways that you can turn this into an enterprise.
E- Energy. Whatever business you decide to start you have to have passion for it so that you will want to keep going through the good and bad times.
E- Execution. You have to have a plan for your business. In life you either make something happen or react to what is happening.
N- Nurture. Your business is your life. The more you know and invest in it the more you grow. Keep working in your business and plant seeds into others so that you will have a network that will always be there to help you.
I have over 15 years of working with and motivating teens and college students. I started a blog Business In College at http://www.BusinessInCollege.com to help promote students that have started businesses. If you know a young entrepreneur please have them contact me or send me their information so I can get their word out to others.
