Entrepreneurs, Who Do You Spend The Most Time With?

Hey there, Entrepreneurs and Wannabe's, They say that we become like the five people with whom we spend the most time. I've had very good reasons to consider that maxim lately, so I've given it a bit of thought. But this isn't about me. It's about you! Who are the five people with whom you spend the most time and are they your mentors or role models? Are they people that you admire and wish to learn from along the way? The past year has given me the opportunity to stretch myself, to meet many new people and to learn […]

The Entrepreneur Mind

Good morning, afternoon, or evening, Entrepreneurs. I'm musing today about the Entrepreneur Mind. It may go without saying that entrepreneurs probably are unusual thinkers, most likely walk to the beat of a different drummer, and may not take kindly to being directed or “bossed around” by self appointed or company appointed authorities. There is something else though! Entrepreneurs think about what they want, even if it is something that might be challenging for them to have or experience. Entrepreneurs are generally self motivated, or at least expert in devising ways to motivate themselves. They may or may not be “driven” […]

My Secret To Being An Encore Career Entrepreneur

Hey there, Maybe everyone has a secret! Maybe every person out there has a different secret that speaks to their condition. This was mine: Just nearly a year ago now as my FMLA was expiring and it began to dawn on me that I was probably not going to be able to go back to my nursing career as I had been hoping, I began searching for a solution to how to make money from home on my computer. I started with the obvious things like completing surveys from home, stuffing envelopes, etc., and checked them out. But these systems […]

Why Trying Harder Doesn’t Help, Entrepreneurs

Hey there, You may have already discovered that Trying Harder Doesn't Help! You see, most of us have been brought up on the notion that one must work really, really hard to have what we want, to be successful and happy. You don't have to be frazzled, worn out, and stressed out. And you don't have to twist yourself into a pretzel trying to be someone that you are not either! You can live the life that you were meant to live. You can become the person that you were meant to be, destined to be. And the formula for […]

Seek First To Understand, Accept – Then Reinvent

Seek First To Understand, Accept – Then Reinvent Listen (Listening is SO important) Accept what is! (Okay, you don't have to love it, but it really does help if you accept what is actually happening!) Don't take things personally! (Most of the time, it really is NOT personal at all and taking it personally keeps us locked into a negative feedback loop that helps no one, especially us.) It is really up to us to figure out who we are at our core and accept that, and then figure out how to get that message out there to the people who […]

Ten Rules For Success From A Superstar

So, I was listening to a Gary Vee YouTube talk. I enjoy him. He's obviously VERY smart and kind of a wise guy too, and he's funny. His language is a little over the top for me, so I'll try to distill this without all the “F” words he uses when he talks and get the meat of the ideas for you. Gary Vaynerchuk's 10 rules for success: Bet on your strengths and don't bother at all about what you are not good at. Focus on what you are good at and put all of your time, effort, energy, and […]

Persistence And Little Baby Steps

Persistence And Little Tiny Baby Steps Sometimes all the persistence one can muster is to take a few little tiny baby steps at the close of a day that has seemed very long in many ways. Don't underestimate the courage that this requires! If today is this kind of a day for you, then give yourself proper credit for extending yourself enough for those little tiny baby steps that you are able to take. Some days are just like that and I hope to encourage you to carry on, doing even just that one simple thing that you are able […]
