As I was finishing up the power washing of my front deck the other day, I was thinking ahead to my next project – putting in a raised garden bed. Time spent power washing is good for letting your mind wander, and contemplating life, so I was doing just that when it occurred to me that business is just like a garden! In order to make my garden bed, I had to rototill the soil. This is much like preparing yourself for business. You need to get rid of limiting beliefs and fears that could hold you back from . . . → Read More: Your Business Is Like a Garden What an amazing adventure the 31 Goals in 31 Days Challenge has been! I have been able to accomplish many things, and while some others are still “works in progress”, overall it was a great experience both personally and in my businesses. I thought I would recap each of the 31 days so this will be a bit of a long post, and I’ll also let you know how I’m doing now toward these goals and what the outcome was.

And the thing that I kept coming back to today is perseverance. Life in general can be hard, but when we are in a time of testing or hardships, when the prospect you thought for sure would sign up for your team falls through, when you sit down to make phone calls and get interrupted by “Moooommmmmyyy!”, when something doesn’t go the way you want it to go, when your host calls to cancel her show for . . . → Read More: 31 Goals in 31 Days – Day 30 – Onward and Upward Here’s a dose of inspiration for you today, courtesy of what might be an unlikely source…Will Smith. Enjoy! To your success, Dr. Laura With the new year upon us many look to make huge “new year’s resolutions” and often those big ideas last for a few weeks and then they are gone. Well, here’s a new idea. How about 100 small goals to be accomplished in 100 days? That’s exactly what my brother, David Lunsford (also a self-employed entrepreneur) is doing, and he is blogging about his experiences. You can start this at any time, and all of the 100 goals don’t have to be earth-moving and mind-shattering. Simple things like drinking more water, doing better oral hygiene, and apologizing has been . . . → Read More: 100 Goals in 100 Days I received a wonderful email from one of my mentors and friends Jordan Adler, and he had some amazing things to say about the simplicity of building a successful business. I couldn’t think of a better way to round out the end of 2009, and help you gear up for a fantastic and productive 2010! Think SIMPLICITY and create SUCCESS!! As we prepare for the new year, it’s important to get really clear on a few things. It’s important to know why we are doing the business, who we are becoming and what we plan to do to . . . → Read More: The Simplicity of Success I received an email from DeMarr Zimmerman with SendOutCards® today and I wanted to pass it along to you, because the message is timeless and relevant to everyone today. Here’s what the message said: An excerpt from “The Strangest Secret” by Earl Nightingale “George Bernard Shaw said, “People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can’t find them, they make them.” Well, it’s pretty apparent, isn’t it? And . . . → Read More: The Strangest Secret As I am working on the quilt I am making for my uncle from my grandmother’s old clothes, I was wondering about finishing the quilt. It occurred to me that people are predominantly either a starter or a finisher. Which are you? A starter likes to start projects, and then they tire, and move on to starting another project, often leaving several unfinished projects trailing behind. The finisher loves to wrap things up. They get jobs done, but have a hard time starting a new project. I am, by far, a starter. And, if you know what you are, . . . → Read More: Are You a Starter or a Finisher? Michele PW is a great copywriter and marketing consultant, who just participated in another marathon. Here’s how she relates the marathon to your business: I just returned from San Diego where I walked my third marathon. It took me 6.5 hours. (I’m not a runner, I’m a walker, and that’s averaging between a 14- and 15-minute mile.) Now if you know anything about marathons, you’ll know that I’m never going to make the Boston marathon with that time.
In fact, I was beaten by an 86-year-old woman from South Carolina (we . . . → Read More: How Marathons Can Help Your Business  |
