The Productivity Secret That Will Change Your Life
One of the things I’m constantly struggling with: my plate is incredibly full. I just have way TOO many things on that proverbial plate and it’s constantly weighing me down. I’m a Strategic Marketer & Product Launch Manager, I help people get things done, and here I am, revealing to you my own challenges with getting things done. Well, I’ve actually invested good money with experts to help me “organize” my office, my computer, and my life, as well as I got a new desk, bookshelves, and on an on. The interesting thing is after that expert gave me this “system” it wasn’t mine. So I had great difficulty in…

How to Take Bigger Risks This Year
Something fascinating happened to me a few years ago that was worth repeating. I had this experience that totally changed my perspective on how I would think and do things in my business and my personal life. Here’s what happened— I had decided to go to the DMV, yes everyone’s favorite place to make jokes about. I had been putting it off for almost a year and I had to finally deal with getting a new title. I actually wanted to cross if off my to-do list! (I had paid off my car loan—yeah, and needed to get the lien holder name off my car title.) I had a phone…

Are You Hard Wired To Fail?
Do you ever set important goals and then find yourself really struggling and not being able to meet them? I used to have MANY sleepless nights when I first started my business.

Until I was able to read some terrific books on worry and learn about ways that really helped stop me in my tracks and enabled me to push past my worry and fears to create more success for myself. The…

Seek Out New Opportunities
Last week, I explained how overcoming setbacks is as an easy as A.B.C. A-Ambiguity B- Build C-Commit This week I am going to show you how easy seeking out opportunities is. It is as easy as N.O.W. stands for “Never-as in “Never Giving Up!” By making, a daily mantra of “I will never give up” means there is not a minute, an hour, or a month that you are not seeking out new opportunities. New opportunities are the only way to completely come out of a setback. The only way to find new opportunities is give it all you have every day! stands for “Opportunistic”. Before you see that word…

Avoid Focusing on Set-backs and Seek out New Opportunities
Avoid Focusing on Setbacks There comes a time in one’s personal and business life, where a setback comes in and rears its ugly head. When it does come, because we know at some point it will, a person has two choices. They can either sit there or focus on all the negativity that comes with it. Or they can come to terms with the reality of the set back and push forward. It is as easy as A.B.C. stands for Ambiguity. A trait that is tied to most entrepreneurs which holds the meaning: The possibility of interpreting an expression in two or more distinct ways. When facing a setback, especially one that leaves a person in a negative situation, the best thing to…

The Right Attitude & Mindset is a Must ~Be like the Bee~
Aerodynamically, the bumblebee should not be able to fly, but the bumblebee does not know it so it goes on flying anyway. Mary Kay Ash There is a saying that goes “You are your own worst critic”. This simple six-word sentence is especially true when it comes to negative thoughts. In the last two weeks, I have encouraged you to take big risks about your life, business, even your actions. I can challenge you and motivate you to reach these amazing goals, but there is one thing I cannot do.

It’s a Balancing Act
Continuing with the balance theme… there are so many areas of our lives these days requiring our attention and not just when we get to it but sometimes like it needed to be done yesterday. Work, relationships, personal time, school, emotional, physical, mental, etc are all aspects of life that require balance. If balance is not established, you may find yourself feeling or saying something like this; “I am drained, exhausted and overwhelmed.” “I wake up in the morning and automatically feel tensed and stressed.” “My life is chaotic and out of control.” “I need to change my life but have no clue where to start.” “I cannot focus…

It’s All In the Balance
When life is hectic, especially right now with the holidays, time seems to slip from our hands and balancing life, work, kids, and other things is hard to do. Yes, I can tell you to take a breather but that might make you hyperventilate. So instead, I am going to ask you to stop and take a moment to read these seven tips on how to balance everything. 1. Don’t overbook. This may seem unusual to people who try to crowbar as much as possible into every workday. The problem is things rarely go according to a prearranged agenda. That means a lot of time falling through the cracks chasing down…
