MARCH 2023: JIA DAY MASTER – WHEN YOUR COMPETITORS REVEAL THEIR STRATEGY…

One of the strategies that the Jia Wood Day Master can apply for the entirety of 2023 is to learn from your competitors. Welp… here’s your best chance! Here is the month where your competitors’ strategies become more easily discernible. So keep your eyes peeled and your radar turned on. Learning from your competitors can be a valuable way to improve your own business. Or at the very least, help you find and create opportunities for differentiation.

  1. Research their strategies and tactics: Study your competitors’ marketing strategies, product development, and customer engagement tactics. Analyze what they’re doing well and what could be improved.
  2. Analyze their strengths and weaknesses: Identify your competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, and compare them to your own. This can help you identify areas where you can improve or differentiate yourself from the competition.
  3. Monitor their online presence: Keep an eye on your competitors’ social media profiles, websites, and blogs. This can help you stay up-to-date on their latest activities and ideas. This is literally the easiest one of all.
  4. Attend industry events: Attend industry events and conferences where your competitors are likely to be present. This can help you learn more about their business strategies and make valuable connections.
  5. Ask for feedback: Ask your customers and clients about their experiences with your competitors. This can help you identify areas where you can improve and provide better value to your customers.
  6. Look for collaboration opportunities: Sometimes, working with your competitors can be more beneficial than competing against them. Look for opportunities to collaborate on projects or initiatives that can benefit both of your businesses.

Remember, learning from your competitors doesn’t mean copying their ideas or strategies. Instead, use their successes and failures as inspiration to improve your own business or creative endeavors. By studying your competitors and analyzing their strengths and weaknesses, you can develop a more competitive edge and provide better value to your customers or audience.

JANUARY 2023: JIA DAY MASTER

Whilst our Gui Water Day Master friends may be enjoying an adventurous January, Jia Day Masters will have a different task at hand. For the Jia Day Master, January 2023 represents a great opportunity to start the new year with a clear perspective of your finances.

When you remove the ambiguities and take off your rose-tinted glasses, having a clear understanding of your finances can bring a number of benefits, including:

  1. Better budgeting: With a clear understanding of your financial situation, you can create a budget that accurately reflects your income, expenses, and debts. This can help you make more informed decisions about how to allocate your money, and avoid overspending or falling into debt.
  2. Increased financial security: Knowing where you stand financially can help you feel more secure and in control of your financial future. By understanding your assets, liabilities, and net worth, you can make informed decisions about saving and investing for the long term.
  3. Improved financial planning: With a clear understanding of your financial situation, you can make more informed decisions about your future financial goals. This can include things like saving for retirement, paying off debt, or saving for a down payment on a home.
  4. Fewer financial surprises: By keeping track of your finances and understanding where your money is going, you can be better prepared for unexpected expenses or financial emergencies. This can help reduce stress and anxiety related to your finances.

Overall, having a clear idea of your finances can help you make better financial decisions, feel more financially secure, and achieve your financial goals.

2022 AND THE JIA WOOD DAY MASTER

Every year that comes along is a blessing. Whether the stars are good or bad, whether it brings clashes or combinations or punishments, there is always an opportunity for the taking. In this new 10-part series, let’s take a look at the 2022 Ren Yin (Water Tiger) year from the perspective of each of the ten Day Masters. Let’s start with, of course, the Jia Wood Day Master.

2022 JIA WOOD SEES INDIRECT RESOURCE ON THE HEAVENLY STEMS

Think of a lake. Its waters still and calm, reflecting the rays of the sunrise. In the distance, stand folds upon folds of mountain ranges. A clump of graceful willow trees stand at the border of the lake. Imagine you are one of those trees.

Drop a twig into the still water. See how the water ripples every outwards? Now think of that lake of water as your resource. The outward ripples are trying to tell you something – 2022 is the time to expand your knowledge base.

Indirect Resource is curiosity personified. When it shows up on the Heavenly Stems, it is an opportunity for the taking. It’s within reach, like a low-hanging fruit. To make use of this energy, it’s time to learn some complementary knowledge around your core competencies.

Let’s give an example. Perhaps you are an accountant. Complementary knowledge could include learning to manage databases. Or perhaps you are a content creator. In this case, complementary knowledge could mean learning some measure of SEO (Search Engine Optimization).

This is a great opportunity for the Jia Wood to grow. Given the inherent nature of the Jia Wood which is to diversify, picking up these supporting skillsets will help you develop new ideas and new solutions.

INDIRECT RESOURCE PRODUCES BOTH 2022 JIA WOOD AND YOUR FRIEND STAR

So now we head into the question of where should you find this so-called complementary knowledge? Should you pay for yet another (useless) course? Maybe not!

Let’s look at the interactions of the elements to give us a clue. This abundant Indirect Resource produces both you the Jia Wood Day Master and your Friend star. Now bear in mind, the Jia Wood has a tendency to get competitive when it sees its own Friend star. However, let’s shift that mindset just a tad. Instead of competing, why not exchange information? Tit-for-tat. You teach me A; I show you B.

Whether you are a business owner or career professional, such an arrangement will surely lead to growth for both parties. Again, the interactions of the elements here give a big clue.

Jia 2022
  1. Your Indirect Resource produces both you and your Friend star.
  2. The Friend star then activates your Eating God star which is the star of innovation and new ideas. In other words, through this exchange of information, new ideas will pop up.
  3. So what do we do with these new ideas? Perhaps a new business idea is in the offing, because the energies end with your Wu Earth Indirect Wealth star!

CONCLUSION FOR 2022 JIA WOOD

To conclude, 2022 is not a year where the Jia Wood Day Master should be working solo. Given these energies, collaborative efforts will bring you more rewards. So start scouting around. Who has the knowledge you need? What can you offer in return? Make the offer!

As always, a final caveat. Without the ability to see the full chart, I must stress that the suggestions in this article are broad recommendations based on a single Day Master.
