Are You Unhappy and Wish for Things to Change?

Not happy in your current situation? Are you stuck in a rut, just plodding along, hoping for the economy to change or for someone to make things better for you?...

Are you laying blame on other things or people for your situation? Is it the landlords fault, is it your customers fault, is it the governments fault?

There are certain things we can't control, it will either hail or shine tomorrow, there is nothing we can do to change that. What you CAN control and can change, is how you RESPOND to it, how you think about it, how you feel about it, and what ACTION you take as a result.

For things to change, first you must change your internal dialogue, how you think about the situation you are having challenge with, and what you literally say to yourself about it.

Language and the words you choose are extremely powerful. The pen is mightier than the sword! People can be moved deeply with words, can be influenced to take action, can be motivated or broken down. So be careful what you say to yourself. Don't say "it can't be done" say " if there was a way, how CAN it be done?" Don't say "things are really tough, no one is spending money" say "let's see what we can do to stimulate more sales, entice people to book in for a treatment or motivate them to buy the product"

I learned from Tony Robbins to soften negative words I say to myself, and power up positive words I say to myself. For example instead of saying " I feel awful" I say "I feel a little unwell" or " I am not fussed with that" instead of saying " I hate that!" the words you use program the way you think and feel about it. You do have a choice every time you choose your words. Say, "that is just awesome!!" instead of saying "that is nice", power up your positive words, it puts you in a totally different mindset!

For things to change you need to break your negative state, snap out of it as they say, start looking for solutions, AND TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION!

As Anthony Robbins said: The path to success is to take MASSIVE, DETERMINED ACTION.

Beauty Therapist vs Dermal Therapist: Why the Industry and Consumers Are Still Confused

  Ask any skincare professional or client, and they’ll tell you: the terminology in the beauty industry is confusing. Titles like "Beautician," "Beauty Therapist," and "Dermal Therapist" are often used interchangeably. But they aren’t the same, and that creates uncertainty for both consumers and professionals. This confusion isn’t new. It’s the result of decades of changes to qualifications, training structures, and industry language. And unless we address it, it will continue to affect the credibility of our profession and the confidence of our clients. So what do these titles actually mean? And more importantly, what should they mean? The History of Beauty Therapy Training in Australia Before the 1990s, Australia had no national framework for beauty therapy qualifications.

Tips For Dealing With Difficult Customers

We all have to deal with difficult customers from time to time. Something I learned a long time ago, is that if we could successfully resolve issues for an angry or complaining customer, they would most often become our most loyal customer. Customers make judgements on the service and judgements about the business based on how the staff and management respond to a difficult situation. When dealin g with a difficult customer, it is important to acknowledge their feelings, don't ignore, or worse, dismiss their feeling. Typically a complaining customer would have been psyching themselves up for the confrontation, often taking you by surprise.  Imagine the customer blown up like a balloon full of hot air. If you confront your customer, question their judgement, deny or justify your actions, you’ll just be adding more hot air to that balloon. If you keep adding hot air to that balloon, it will eventually explode. The best thing to do is to let the hot air out of t...
