The 12 step program for unignited startups

This is a simple program aimed at start up addicts who find themselves in their company that is not meeting up to their expectations. 

1. Admit you have a problem
2. Figure out if the problem is you or the market (or both) -- Note: you can't change the market just your approach and behavior in the market
3. Make a list the things you can control vs the things you can't control
4. Prioritize the list of things you control and make a 90 day to do plan
5. Hire a coach to assist you in hitting all your 90 day goals -- buy them dinner for payment
6. Get out of your comfort zone
7. Assess what skills and characteristics are preventing your business from succeeding -- acquire those skills 
8. Buy the 7 habits of highly effective people. Read the book and do all the exercises in it.
9. Subscribe to Tony Robbins on Twitter.
10. Get everyone aligned behind hitting your company 90 day goals
11. Stay positive. One foot in front of the other.
12. Ignite.

I love love love the "7 Habits" book. It is incredible book IF you do all the exercises in the book. That plus 'The Success Principles' by Jack Canfield have all the tools you need to find your direction and move in a meaningful way towards it.
