What a great post! I’m currently working with an entrepreneur who listens to everyone but herself. I can’t seem to make her understand that, while it’s great to seek advice and suggestions, you can’t always listen to everything everyone says.
Thanks Bobbi. All too often a business owner tries to do everything that might work. The third eye is developed by creating both a personal vision (“What do I want my life to look like when my company is successful?”) and a company vision. Take a look at the Simon Sinek video at TED.com
Great Tips, thanks for sharing with us. Especially the way you put together notes on third eye makes sense and in closing you were talking about religion, which brought many memories, where GOD has opened his third eye (my parents used to tell lot of mytholigical stories). Once again thanks for sharing.
