Did You Know:
 From: Lee Schearer,
To: My Fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group Members
"Problem solving in your business"
As many of you know, I like to read and learn, for it has been said "Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young". Henry Ford.
With that in mind while re-reading from my collection of self-help books I came across the chapter on "How to Analyze and Solve Worry Problems" from Dale Carnegie. In it he sums up his approach to help business owners with worries in three steps:
- Get the facts.
- Analyze the facts.
- Arrive at a decision-and then act on that decision.
As easy as it may sound I have used this technique in solving many of my problems both in my personal life and in my business life over the past 46 years of self-employment.
The one true advantage that our fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group members have is in utilizing the numerous resources available in helping each other abate their worries and to become successful, now in our 21st year as the oldest business referral group in the region. I invite you to join me this Wednesday morning and witness how this organization can help you in becoming successful in your business.
Respectfully,
Lee Schearer

Attention CHLG Members - The Chapel Hill Leads Group's goal is to raise 100+ boxes of cereal a month. If everyone brought one box of cereal to two meetings this month, the Chapel Hill Leads Group would easily exceed the 100 boxes of cereal goal.
