Psychologists say that power does 4 crazy things to your mind

Silver birch aka Lady of the woods.

Psychologists say that power does 4 crazy things to your mind
Drake Baer

Who doesn't desire power?
There's a little Frank Underwood in all of us.
At the beginning of "House of Cards,"Kevin Spacey's character explains 
why power beats money
Money is the McMansion in Sarasota that starts falling apart after 10 years.
Power is the old stone building that stands for centuries.
I cannot respect someone who doesn't see the difference.
But should you find and hold power — as Underwood so deliciously does 
— it's going to do some really weird things to your perception of yourself and others.

Here's what the research says:
If you feel powerful, you're more inspired by yourself than anybody else.
According to a 2015 study led by Gerben A. Van Kleef at the University of Amsterdam,
powerful people find themselves more inspiring than anybody else.
In a study of 140 undergraduates, he found that people who agreed highly to statements like
"I can get others to do what I want" were more inspired by talking about their own life-changing experiences than hearing other people discuss theirs.

To Research Digest blogger Alex Fradera, it's indicative of self-sufficiency.
"As a matter of course, powerful people don't expect others to fulfill their needs,
and may therefore find it difficult to consider anyone else a worthy source of inspiration," 
he writes. "It's a little like a child for whom no one in the playground is up to scratch,
so they become their own best friend."

If you feel powerful, you're the first to act.
In a 2003 study led by Columbia University psychologist Adam Galinsky, people who felt more powerful than their peers were more likely to take a card in a game of blackjack,
fix an annoying fan in a room, and take action in social dilemmas.
 A 2007 study co-authored by Galinsky added to that theme,
 finding that powerful people are more likely to act first in a negotiation.

In 2012, the University of Texas' Jennifer A. Whitson found an explanation as to why: 
Powerful people are less likely to perceive — and remember — constraints to their goals.
It's like how eagles and alligators evolved to have their eyes close together.
"The vision of predators is fixated on their object of pursuit — their prey —
leaving little visual room for unexpected danger or potential threats in their surroundings," 
she and her authors write. "This directed focus allows them to pounce into action 
to secure their meal."

Same for CEOs.
If you feel powerful, you're more likely to cheat.
It's not that men are more disposed to having sex outside of their marriages than women.
According to a 2011 study led by Joris Lammers at Tilburg University in the Netherlands,
it's that powerful people are more likely to cheat.
His team surveyed 1,561 professionals, asking how high up in their organizations they were
and their history or interest in cheating.
"Results showed that elevated power is positively associated with infidelity
because power increases confidence in the ability to attract partners," they wrote.
"This association was found for both actual infidelity and intentions to engage in infidelity
in the future."
Gender didn't matter.
Powerful women were just as likely to have or pursue affairs as powerful men.
This goes against a commonly held assumption about cheating. It's not that men are inherently
more likely to cheat than women, it's just that men are more likely to hold powerful positions.
"As a social psychologist, I believe that the situation is everything and that the situation
or instance is often stronger than the individual," Lammers said in a statement. 
"As more and more women are in greater positions of power and are considered equal to men,
then familiar assumptions about their behavior may also change."

If you feel powerful, you feel distant from other people.
According to Joe Magee at New York University and Pamela Smith at the University of California
at San Diego, powerful people feel more socially distant than non-powerful people.
It happens for a few reasons:
• People become close to one another when they are "symmetrically dependent" on one another and have repeated interactions, Magee and Smith say. You and your boss aren't symmetrically dependent; you depend on her approval more than she does yours. But you and the other people
on her team are symmetrical, so you're likely to become close over time.
• Research indicates that powerful people don't need to associate with others in the same way.
• Powerful people have to think more abstractly than everybody else. 
They're concerned with meeting goals more than developing relationships.
So the isolation is a result of the social situation that power puts you in
— and the need to get things done.
It works for Mr. Underwood.

7 Steps You Can Take to Stop Trading Time for Money

Dog rose.

7 Steps You Can Take to Stop Trading Time for Money

We were all lied to. Growing up, we were sold the misconception
that we should follow the traditional career path of working 50-hour weeks
to receive a stable paycheck. In short: Get into the office early, stay late 
and even come in on weekends -- then maybe, just maybe, you'll get a raise one day.

Hopefully, if we worked “long” enough, we'd save enough money to retire at the age of 65.
So, who the hell invented that? 
Since when was there a rule saying we have to trade our time for money?
In fact, this is one of society's biggest hoaxes. 
Time is our most important commodity, and all the money in the world cannot replace that fact. 

Your income is limited by time.
When you’re trading time for money, your income will always be limited. 
The first reason: There are only 24 hours in a day to devote to the pursuit of money.
And most of us need eight hours to sleep, two hours to commute to and from work and two to four hours, total, to cook, eat, tend to hygiene, relax and spend time with friends and family.
That leaves us with 10 to 12 hours to trade in for income. That’s it.
But the reality is that no matter how much your time is worth to your organization:
$20, $30, $50 per hour, there will always be a cap imposed here: time.
Another consideration in the pursuit of money is that few of us can just ask for more
simply because we want it. We have to wait years before obtaining the necessary job promotion, and there’s a fair chance that we may not get that promotion at all.
The second reason for limits on income is that the more we make, the more we’ll lose. 
Employee tax is the most heavily taxed income there is, and the more income we earn, 
the more tax we face. Which means that when someone goes from making $60,000 to $100,000
due to a promotion, they’re not actually making $40,000 more.

Your impact is limited.
When we’re continuously trading time for money throughout our lives, time is limited
for pursuing the things we’re passionate about. This could be a hobby we love,
giving back to the community or building something that could have a real impact in the world.
Simply put, with limited time comes limited impact.
The question is, then, how do we stop trading time for money? Consider getting yourself
onto the one sustainable pathway to stop trading time for money. Follow these seven steps:

1. Change Your Mindset
The first thing we must do is change our beliefs. When we drop the mindset that says
that in order to make money, we have to trade our time for it, our minds open up to
the possibilities. There’s no rule that says that to make X dollars, we have to work X hours.
In fact, it’s more important to spend time “un-learning” the old than “learning” the new.
So, think about trading value for money, not time. Think about what value you can create
for other people, and how you can deliver that value. What assets, skills, knowledge, connections or ideas do you have that people value? Recognize your strengths and competency, then go all-in.

2. Build your expertise and authority.
Once we understand the strengths and value we can bring to others, we next need to build
expertise around it. Developing expertise translates into larger value creation for ourselves
and others, because we can now solve problems that few others can solve.
However, being recognized as an expert takes time and work,
which is why building authority is just as important.
Building authority around your expertise is what will help people discover your expertise
in the first place. You could be the best in the world at something,
but if no one has heard about you, then it doesn’t matter.
Authority has many factors to it, but the most effective are testimonials, press & media,
influencer associations and case studies. Give people the confidence to realize that you know
what you’re talking about. Developing expertise & authority will immediately increase the value
of your time and allow opportunities to come to you.

3. "10x the value of your time."
Not all of us can leap into entrepreneurship in the blink of an eye. 
This is why if you’re freelancing or providing professional services for your time,
multiply your time times 10: "10x the value of your time."
Instead of working with 10 clients that are going to pay you $2 per hour, find two that will pay you $20 -- then drop the rest. This is easier said than done, of course,
but the logic here is to stay focused on the few that deliver the most results.
That way, you'll be working fewer hours for the same, if not more income.
Which gives you more time to…

4. Focus on creating a product.
To stop trading time for money, create an offer that you can sell and deliver
without having to be there.
A powerful way to do this is to create an online product -- an ebook, training program,
membership program, software apps, etc. You can also sell physical products online,
but you’ll have to find someone who can manufacture and deliver the product to your customers (through drop shipping).
The reason why an online product can be powerful is that you can create it once,
then focus the rest of your time on selling it. Yes, you’ll have to improve and optimize the product, but those tasks will happen on your own time.
This means you could go on vacation, spend time with friends or sleep 
and still have the ability to benefit as customers purchase your offerings.

5. Automate everything.
Figure out a way to automate and systemize everything you can in your business.
This could range from how you acquire customers, to how you deliver your products,
to how you drive traffic -- multiple aspects of your business, whether that means your content calendar, automated email series, webinars, social media posts, facebook ads, etc.
The more you can systemize, the more time you’ll have to focus on the business, not in the business. Your time should be spent on long-term strategy, building relationships 
and growing the business --the drivers that will make your business thrive. 
Now of course we can’t automate and systemize everything in the business. So what do we do?

6. Hire someone.
Eventually, it just makes sense to hire someone to help you in certain areas of the business. 
How do we know which areas are appropriate? To find out, create your 3 Lists to Freedom.
This list, designed by Chris Ducker, will change the way you look at your time. 
Here’s how it works.
First, create three columns with the titles:
1. HATE doing
2. SHOULDN’T do
3. CAN’T do
Get your employee (or assistant, intern, etc.) to start with the tasks you hate doing. 
Getting past what you hate doing will not only help you appreciate the value of outsourcing tasks, it will maximize the strengths you already have and help you to avoid focusing on your weaknesses.

7. Build your next offering
You’ve built authority, you've built your product and you've figured out a way to automate
and hire someone to grow your business. What’s next?
Often, it’s not enough to have one offering out there in the market. The biggest businesses
expand into different products/services, or they find a way to upsell their current customers.
Is there a product idea that your customers have been nagging you about?
A set of features that you can add to provide a premium pricing package? 
Understand what your current customers are looking for and figure out a way to deliver it
using the systems and resources you already have in place.

Now: Reward yourself
The final step is to reward yourself. 
What’s the point of having more time if we’re not able to enjoy it?
Spend time with your loved ones, learn something new, or travel the world. 
We must be able to visualize and reward the results we have achieved in order to
associate the notion of having more time as a positive result.
Take the time to recharge, reconnect and do more of what you love. Time is only worth having 
if you spend its worth. As First Lady Barbara Bush has said, “At the end of your life, you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict or not closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend, a child or a parent.”

3 Mistakes to Avoid When Working With a Virtual Assistant

Moss.

3 Mistakes to Avoid When Working With a Virtual Assistant
Dorie Clark

Like many entrepreneurs, I was introduced to the concept of working with a virtual assistant, or VA, by Tim Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek. He extolled the benefits of outsourcing repetitive work
(or tasks you aren't good at or don't enjoy) so you can focus on your most valuable tasks. 
Lured by the idea of following the 80/20 rule (i.e., spending my time on the 20 percent of activities that generate 80 percent of my returns), for the past six years, I’ve worked off and on with VAs locally and around the world. They've handled a variety of tasks for me, including transcription, sharing articles on social media, uploading and formatting blog posts, 
audio and video editing, writing interview questions, and more. 
If you’re considering hiring one -- or would like to improve your working relationship
with the ones you’re currently contracting with -- here are three mistakes to avoid. 

1. Failing to scope out your tasks. Well before you hire a VA, it’s useful to make a list of tasks that you’d like them to perform for you. In my case, it includes things like booking travel arrangements, uploading blog posts and sharing articles on social media. Creating an accurate task list can help you select a VA with the right experience and aptitude. Once you hire your VA -- either through personal networking, placing an ad or perhaps by using a service such as Zirtual-- you’ll also want to put
the same level of advance thought into describing each individual task you’d like accomplished.
This is especially critical if you’re dealing with an overseas VA whose cultural reference points
may be different than yours; they may not understand that booking a Boston to Atlanta flight
with a layover in Los Angeles is a very, very bad idea. You can save yourself a great deal of trouble later by being very precise in your instructions and trying to anticipate questions your VA
might have or ways things might go wrong.

2. Not making time to review their work. It’s tempting to think that once you hire a VA,
you can delegate the task and then forget it. But, at least at first, that’s definitely not how 
it works. You need to build time into your calendar to review everything they do, 
so you can catch problems early and offer suggestions and feedback.
 Some VAs may be hesitant to alert you if they’ve hit a roadblock or don’t understand 
your instructions. So checking in frequently and monitoring their progress in the early days can ensure they’re not going down blind alleyways trying to follow instructions they’ve misconstrued. It’s easy to get busy and ignore your VA temporarily;
they’re not demanding your time the way a client would. But if you want them to be effective,
plan at least 30 minutes per day to review their work early on. That gives them timely
and actionable feedback, and will save you money because they’re less likely to have to go back
and redo tons of work.

3. Not creating a system. One of the best things I did with my most recent VA was developing
an “assistant’s manual” prior to her starting the job. I wrote down step-by-step procedures
for the most common tasks I’d be asking her to do and put all the relevant information,
such as website passwords or frequent flier numbers, into one easy-to-search document. (Depending on the task, you could also consider making online videos to demonstrate procedures to your VA.) That ensured she wasn’t constantly barraging me with basic questions and she could quickly become self-reliant. When she took on a new task, I also instructed her to write up the procedure and include it in the manual, so that it could become an ongoing reference tool for the future. The goal is to enable an easy transition and avoid having to reinvent the wheel when there’s been a long gap in between performing a particular task (such as uploading a blog post to a particular website with its own layout quirks). 

Working with a VA can exponentially increase your productivity – but that’s only if you fully leverage their time and talents. You’ll never harness the real benefit if you’re constantly having to clean up mistakes and do things over again. The only way to avoid that is by planning in advance and setting up the systems that will enable them to succeed.

Distractions Killing Your Flow? Try This Method.

Marigold.

Distractions Killing Your Flow? Try This Method.
Jason Womack

 Are distractions getting in your way?
Have you noticed that many times when you are focusing on your work
and are approaching that momentum where things start to flow easily, you get interrupted?
Most entrepreneurs have created productivity habits that work for them, yet upon closer inspection, they realize that when they are trying to get something done, 
tasks often take more time than had been originally budgeted. 
This is caused by distractions: A co-worker who needs something from them, a phone call 
from a potential client, a team member with questions about a project.
Every time you are interrupted or distracted, the energy you were building
from moving your project forward is halted, and you need to start over.
Too many times, you need to gather new strength to pick up where you left off,
and you may waste valuable minutes trying to figure out exactly where that was.

Science continues to prove what our intuition knows: Interruptions do impact productivity. However, there may be a positive or negative impact to your productivity.
According to University of California, Irvine researcher Dr. Gloria Mark, there may be a difference between the different kinds of distractions or interruptions. 
Interruptions that add to the task at hand make us more productive. 
Alternatively, interruptions on topics different from what we’re working on force us to change 
our work rhythms, strategies and even mental states.
So what can we do about it? Identify one piece of work that deserves about 45 minutes
of focused attention. Then go to a place where you can be alone.
It can be a different office or conference room or even the nearby coffee shop.
By getting away from your desk, you will not be available for phone calls or to check your emails.
If you take your laptop with you, remember that this is time to focus on work,
so avoid doing anything unrelated to this specific task.
Can’t leave your desk? You can still have a “meeting with yourself” by simply use a digital timer
to hold you accountable to a 45-minute work session.

Before starting a work session, think of the people that might interrupt you –
it may be a team member, a client or even a manager -- and interrupt them first.
You can use the time before your focus period to get in contact with them and anticipate
anything they may need from you. 
You should also mention that you will be unavailable during the next 45 minutes 
because you will focus on a specific piece of work that needs to get done.
They will understand and over time, they will respect this focus time and avoid interrupting you.
This will not only save you time every day, but it can also make your team more efficient
and independent. Go ahead and try it for five days.

8 Ways to Develop Long-Term Focus and Achieve Success

Mount your horse here.

8 Ways to Develop Long-Term Focus and Achieve Success
Adam Toren

It’s been said that your most valuable form of capital is your mind.
Entrepreneurial Personality Types (or EPTs), discovered by Alex Charfen,
are naturally capable of widespread success -
- but what happens when you’re pushed off track? 
These eight methods will help you to regain laser focus
and use those extra-special personality traits to succeed.

1. Plan.
Finances need to be tracked. Ideas need to be fleshed out on paper. Goals must be clearly stated. Spontaneous projects may be fun, but you'll panic as soon as you realize you don't know
where your time and money are going. Take advantage of spreadsheets to track your progress
as you build upon a founding idea. Keep a compact journal on hand to scribble down concepts
and contacts as you go; then you'll have a reference to turn to when you veer off track.
A clean, organized mindset is one upon which you can build something great. 

2. Prioritize.
Your never-ending to-do list will become a bit less intimidating once its contents are prioritized. 
What is the one task you must complete before the day is over? Circle it, draw a star next to it,
write a “#1” in the margin -- whatever you need to do to indicate its importance.
Then designate two tasks you’d like to complete, but that aren’t necessarily urgent.
The leftover items on the list should be long-term: tasks that can be completed
within the next week or so. By prioritizing your to-do list, not only have you outlined 
what you need to do, but you’ve figured out how you’re going to accomplish it. 

3. Get excited for the day.
Don’t treat your day like any other workday. You’re a business owner, making your dreams 
a reality -- get excited. Entrepreneurship is mentally draining, but if you point out one task
you’re actually looking forward to each day, your work will turn into fun.
Bonus points if your top-priority task matches up with this one!

4. Don’t do it for the money.
Sure, your big idea may someday result in a large house, a nice car,
and endless luxury vacations, but don’t let finances become your biggest motivator.
Launching a long-term project mainly for the money will result in early burnout.
The beginning of any business is going to be tough on your wallet,
and you’ll only make it through if you have another drive to continue.
What makes you want to own a business over landing a successful job someplace else?
 Is it the desire to become a household name, or a wish to help those in need?
Remember the reason you became an entrepreneur and keep it close –
- in your conscience, on your phone or on a piece of paper in your pocket.


5. Make a habit of working toward your goal. 
Old habits die hard. Imagine how much you’d accomplish once working on your business
became a mere habit. Successful entrepreneurs take a step forward daily, whether it’s by marketing, networking, seeking funding, or researching. The more you work at something,
the easier it becomes. If you have a hard time creating positive habits for yourself,
print out a habit calendar and try to check off a box every day. 

6. Develop a reward system.
It’s an element of classical conditioning: rewards shape long-term positive behavior.
It can take a while to reap the rewards from a small business, so take care to reward yourself
as you progress. Outwardly acknowledging your achievements will make you feel good
and motivate you to succeed even more in the future. If you accomplish a tough task,
allow yourself a small reward, like a nice meal or a quiet moment of relaxation. Eventually,
you’ll be able to kick procrastination and finish things quickly by celebrating positive behavior.

7. Maintain faith in your motives and ideas.
Even when you have a stack of market research supporting your business idea, it’s easy to lose faith and second-guess your plans moving forward. Give yourself a boost of confidence
by listing out your strengths and focusing on how to improve your weaknesses.
What inspired you to start your business? How is that inspiration still relevant today?
Why are you the best person possible to help your business succeed?
Remember not everyone possesses the patience, emotional strength, and creativity needed 
to start a business -- you’re a certain kind of special already.

8. Develop a thick skin.
No one’s work is perfect, especially at the beginning. Learn to accept constructive criticism
from your peers and block out emotionally-driven comments. Develop a network of people
you trust to provide valuable feedback. This can dramatically improve the quality of your work
while also creating an emotional support system. No matter how well your business is performing, someone will always be there to offer both constructive criticism and empty,
negative comments. Create a filter that weeds out the latter
and places a healthy amount of objective focus on the former.
It’s normal for even the best entrepreneurs to experience a blur of focus every now and then.
EPTs lose momentum when society tells them their methods, thought processes,
and personalities are somehow in the wrong. But as Alex Charfen puts it, you’re not alone.
