Have you heard of Maslow's hierarchy of needs? Here's another take on this idea. There are 6 human needs that humans require in life.
1. Certainty - You need to be certain you know where your next meal comes from, that your spouse loves you, that you'll do your morning routine every morning. You have to be certain of some things in life.
2. Uncertainty (variety) - Why do crave variety? We're looking for that unknown, that change, that new stimulus. We're looking for that that unknown moment. Variety is the spice of life. Isn't that what makes life, life? That fact that you could walking down the street and meet the person who will change your life forever is what we live for.
3. Significance - We spend more money in this category than on any other thing in our lives. This is because you will spend money to feel imporant, unique, valued and special. Why buy a luxury car when you can get a commuter? It's because you can and it makes you feel worthy. Why does your neighbor ride his bike to work instead of drive? It's because helping the environment and his body might be what gives him value. Signifance is value and how you accept this and portray this in your life.
4. Love and Connection - We all need love, but many settle for connection. You can have a connection with someone you meet at starbucks or you can even treat people you should love like a connection. This is because love has consquences. You can get hurt with love and that's scary. Never pass up the chance for love over a connection.
5. Growth - Growth is crucial for moving forward. This can be personal, business, or growth in a relationship. If we stand still too long we become complacent and bored. Progressing will keeping you from falling behind, developing drepression, and just living a life you don't want. Nurture the things you love and care about and make it your passion.
6. Contribution - Humans need others, we know this from our strong desire for love and connection. Love isn't just about receiving. It's a two way street and giving to others is as equally rewarding. The more you give, the more you receive. People will appreciate your kindness and thoughtfullness.

You can have two things in life, excuses or results. You can't have both.
You have to phrase it this way, "Whatever it is in my life that's most important isn't more important than this excuse I'm about ready to give myself." The thing is, you can try to fool yourself but everyone else can see through your excuse.
Excuses are not to be confused with reasons. Valid reasons are important and worth honoring. However, if you just wanted to watch one more show, don't fool yourself. You can make things happen, it's not about time. It's about priorities. Try saying, "I didn't prioritize this," instead of "I didn't have time."
When you start to change the way you talk about excuses, time, and priorities, you might just start to change how you live your life.
You hold the key.

Who is your biggest critic? Is it your neighbor, your colleague, your spouse? Many of us become our own worst enemy when it comes to getting things done.
Overthinking can prevent you from even starting. What if it goes wrong? What if I fail? What if no one understands? Well you won't ever find out unless you give it a shot. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Get out of your head and start trying! Do your research, put in the time and effort and be persistent. You have to do good work, and most importantly, have faith and confidence in yourself. If you're not willing to fight for yourself, who will?
You can do this! You lose if you don't try so stop thinking, start doing. Have a plan and stick to it.
You hold the key.

A lot of people get sucked into a life simply by putting one foot in front of the other. I would like to challenge you to live life on your own terms. Find out how much salt you're really worth. Design your life, maybe sit down to write some goals right now. If you could have anything at anytime what would it be? Do you have six-month goals, three-year goals?
You don't have to live the life you walked into. You can design it to be whatever you want it to be. You just have to do one thing - become accountable. It's one thing to make excuses to the public - your boss, your friends, your partner, but if you are lying and making excuses to yourself there isn't any hope. You have to become accountable for the things you do. If you succeeded, great! That was you! If you failed, even better. Now you have something to learn from. Own that failure as much as your success. Ask yourself if you could have done better and then fix it. Own your successes and your failures. People rely on you and if they don't, you rely on you. Even if you're just doing this for yourself and no one else, figure out why you're doing it. Don't say I want a million dollars just to have it, know what's driving you. Know what your motivation is because when you start to be come accountable, successful, and maybe life is actually get easy, what is keeping you hungry?
If you can't answer the why or don't have any goals, take some time and figure this out. Don't shoot without your aim. Let your why drive you and your accountability be the gas. Do better. Be better. You have it in you.
You hold the key.

Did you know fifty percent of startups fail within the first two years and fifty percent of startups fail just as a whole? Sixty six percent of all companies fail within 10 years. These are staggering numbers! Here are the TOP 5 REASONS WHY BUSINESSES FAIL, according to our founder, Nick-Anthony Zamucen.
5. There's not a market for your business - people think they're going to create something out of thin air.
4. People don't have the right team surrounding them - you need an array of people doing it better than you whom you can get ideas and advice from. Take advantage of others' knowledge so you don't make unnecessary mistakes.
3. Losing focus - things become to easy and people become complacent. They lose the hunger and the drive to continue.
2. Expanding too quickly with too little capital - this can be overcome, however, more commonly this is problematic.
1. You - while outside factors of course play a role, there's always something you can do to get around a problem. Your accountability will lead you to success. If you can accept accountability you can honestly ask yourself what can I do better and how can I fix what needs to be fixed.

We have a huge shout out to Jeffrey Kuhn in Bio-One Harrisburg! He had his first police vehicle cleanup and this magnet was on the cabinet. He had given it to them a while ago with his marketing materials and they put it on their cabinet. Each officer walks by it everyday. Fantastic Jeff!! Bio-One marketing at it's best.
Bio-One loves supporting the police force and we thank them for all they do for our communities! Thank you.
