Hi! Jeanna here… Yes, this can happen to you, too I remember the first year I tripled my income. My bookkeeper sent me my company report and there it was in black in white. Not only did I make a huge leap in profits, I had finally broke through the six figure ceiling. Woo hoo! It felt really good. The be
Do you want to increase your wealth and improve your relationship with money? Are you willing to ALLOW a constant flow of prosperity into your life? \ All it takes is a decision and belief. Simple, huh?! \ Sure, you’ll have to let go of a great many negative beliefs that you currently hold on to for dear li
Whether you deliberately do it or not, you’re always looking for an ideal person. In business you look for ideal customers and/or team members who are a perfect match for the job that needs to be completed. \ You look for the ideal mechanic, computer repair person, babysitter, mate, housecleaner…and t
I’ve always heard that jury duty in the U.S. is an interesting experience. Interesting in a good way. I thought I’d enjoy it, but I never wanted to do it since I’ve owned my own business. I have a very delicately balanced schedule between work and kids. If I unexpectedly had to leave for a week or two from my bus
Have you ever been hell bent on figuring something out or getting something important done only to bump into a brick wall? I went to Maui for a high school friend's destination wedding and rented a house with several other friends. One morning we all woke up early and walked to a favorite breakfast spot on the oce
Whether or not you make New Year’s resolutions, this is a great time to take on new projects and lay out your goals for the year. Here’s some inspiration to make sure that 2016 is everything you hope it will be. \ 1. “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” \ Have you ever heard this expres
I used to have a bad habit of creating new ways to generate money every month. None of my new offerings had earth-shattering results, but that didn't stop me from trying to reinvent the wheel. Apparently, I didn't notice my pattern of working hard for little ROI. \ If you think you may be in a profit rut, ask your
The end of the year can either be one of the most relaxing times or it can be hectic. Sometimes it’s a little of both. Preparation for the holidays and travel are only a part of the year-end priorities. \ The end of the year is a good time for reflection on what has been and what you’d like to create for the c
Telling people what you do is pretty easy if they are willing to intently listen for 5-10 minutes while you give them examples and analogies. Even straightforward professions and products require a bit of dialogue. Passionate business owners have so much they want to explain that it can be painful to formulate
If you’re a deliberate creator on any level, you know that your thoughts and emotions produce the results you experience in your life. Yes, you create it all. And often you co-create with the many people that surround you. Consciously making choices in your business to use the Law of Attraction to help you d
It’s funny how often I have tricked myself into thinking that I have a certain end result in mind but upon further examination, I notice that I’m really committed to something else. For instance, in the past I’d tell myself that I wanted to create a certain amount of income a month. Yet, month after month I would
Being confused, unclear, overwhelmed or broke are choices. But who the heck wants to hear that?! \ I was coaching a business team recently and asked the group, “What do you need to step into, that will take you to your personal edge? What is something you want to experience more fully at work?” \ The an
When you look for a way out of any corner, the first thing you usually ask yourself is, “What do I need to do?” It’s an okay question to begin the process of moving into solution. But an even better question is, “What was I focusing on that led me into this corner?”
Have you ever thought … “I’m not sure what action to take first? And I’m not sure the action I take will get the results I want.” \ Here’s a question to remedy that issue: \ What do I feel most inspired to do? \ If you can let go of what you’re “supposed” to do, you’ll usually
I remember the exact moment that my current coaching format popped into my head. I was doing a visualization during my second workshop at the Coaches Training Institute. I clearly saw myself coaching ten clients at $1000 a month. I was working in depth with them and loving how much time I could offer them. \ But I
There’s a very good chance you know the value of getting new perspectives on how to grow your business. And you probably understand the value of getting feedback about how to improve your business from someone on the outside. \ But there is one set of eyes that you may not be fully leveraging. \ And what if
I recently posted on Facebook that I lost 15 pounds in six weeks. Of all the topics I've covered before, this one received the most "likes" and comments. I was shocked. Naturally, people really wanted to know my secret. \ The short answer: I went on a raw foods cleanse and joined the gym. \ The majority of
Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” I agree that acquiring new information can help you sift through the many choices in life and make wise ones. I also happen to think that the quest for knowledge can be a big stumbling block to success.
You probably consider yourself a person who is kind and does your best to play by the Golden Rule. But as coach, I get to peek behind your curtain. I know that some of the seemingly nicest people are downright mean and nasty. You’re mean and nasty to yourself. Wicked. Brutal. Verging on abusive.
“I need a cash infusion!” \ I’ve said that hundreds of times to myself. Bills were due and I didn’t have enough money to cover them. I needed money to come in quick. I usually worried for a bit, and then decided to focus on a solution. Mostly I pulled it off. But barely. \ It took a ton of inner game
Every December and January, millions of people sit down with a pen and paper to write out their goals for the year. Many of the goals are exciting because they’re fresh out the creativity pool. Other goals are quite irritating because they’ve been on the goal list before and didn’t come to fruition. They can igni
It’s normal to put off things in life until you have the money to do them. But does it have to be that way? \ Absolutely not! \ Never wait until the money shows up or you’ll spend most of your time waiting. And while you wait, you’ll be thinking about the many things for which you are waiting.
Hesitation. \ It's a daily occurrence and yet you may not even know it's happening. \ Hesitation is a pause. A doubt. A question. \ Is it fear or your Inner Guidance speaking? If you pay attention to that gut feeling of hesitancy, you'll gain clarity on which action steps to take to be a happy, wealthy b
For more than a few years, I’ve been a slave to email. I was very aware of it and sought help. I got some relief, but email still felt like it was cracking its whip on me. \ By the way, if you’ve got the email thing down, I don’t want to hear about all the different strategies I can use to reduce email. I've
If you know anything about the Law of Attraction, this is the one thing that is forgotten so easily. There is a delay in time, quite often, from the time you decide what you’d like to manifest until the time you experience the evidence that the Universe is about to deliver your goods. \ Now that I’ve reminded
Many entrepreneurs dream of doing what they love and getting highly paid for it. Not me. I was so off-my-rocker excited about the process of coaching that I left my first coaches training session and went directly to educating people on the power of coaching. I probably seemed like a newbie network marketer who just wa
Wouldn’t it be great if there were a magic formula you could follow to know what actions to take, and when, so that you could always get the best results in every project or business you focus on? \ There really isn’t a cookie cutter, step-by-step plan that you can use to prioritize action steps. However, the
When you have a goal or desire that is important to you, do you ever go into mental overdrive before you see the results? I know I have. I watch my clients do it, too. \ You can go into overdrive in several ways: *Think about every scenario possible that could go wrong *Think about solutions for every
Man, oh, man! Why do business owners get so serious about each action step they take? \ Nothing in business is set in stone. There are no guarantees that if you do something well once, that it will keep on working. You could have the best product or service and you may not make enough profits. \ I'm not tryin
Do you pride yourself on being able to put out fires in your business faster than the best firefighters? Are you able to dodge bullets in a single leap? Is it your job to turn every no into a yes? Are you masterful at living on a shoe-string budget? \ If you answer yes to any of the above, or even wished you coul
It felt like a wake-up call the first time I heard the seminar leader say, “Casualness breeds Casualty.” \ He was referring to how we treat our goals and the people on our team. When we don’t give them our intention and attention, they fizzle instead of sizzle. \ I’ve never forgotten that phrase, but
I don't know about you, but I struggled mightily trying to figure out how to make a quantum leap in my business. Funny thing is that anytime my profits jumped up in a significant way, it was never the way I had intended. \ Does that mean that you can't plan for a big profit increase? \ You can absolutely env
I’m very clear that the way I pay myself each month would not be endorsed by your bookkeeper or accountant. It’s just unorthodox (I’ll say more about this later). But then again, the way most solopreneurs pay themselves is by seeing what is leftover after paying all of their expenses. What happens if there is not
Recently, I registered for a three-day marketing event intending that I would walk away with a new and brilliant tagline for my company. I felt that the tagline would solve several of my marketing issues. I was straight up desperate. \ I filled my notebook with tons of next steps during that event, but the taglin
Business owners have three modes they gravitate toward: \ A. Creative maniac \ B. Implementing the cool new strategy \ C. Overwhelm (which can manifest as stress, denial, checking out, boredom) \ Sure, there are some other modes, but these are where you’ll tend to play the most. \ No mode is better t
You have two choices in your business … be a pro or be an amateur. \ Professionals (pros) are people who take their hobby, sport or passion seriously. They’ve decided they’re no longer satisfied with being an amateur. They want the challenge and fulfillment of fully living into their potential. \ And wh
I knew that it might unfold this way, but I prayed it wouldn’t. A sixteen year old at my gym was arrested for allegedly murdering his family. I knew all the details long before they were released to the press, even though I didn’t know him personally. \ I struggled with all the negative thoughts in my head abo
Have you ever scurried around looking for your sunglasses only to find them on your head? \ Why didn’t you know they were there? \ Most likely you were rushing, not really taking your time to think it through. \ Believe it or not, it’s like that with money. \ You scurry around, trying to hustle
I’ve always thought everyone is a little weird, or at least everyone has a weird quirk or two. I owned up to my weirdness long ago. If you don’t believe me ask my high school classmates about my white and green striped jumpsuit or my giant 85 dangle earrings. You may think that being weird is fine when
If you’ve ever had an issue getting rockstar results from the people you hire or partner with, you’re not alone. They show up late, miss deadlines, fall off the grid with no communication and do subpar work. Even some of the decent team players have their moments where they fall down on the job with no great excuse
When your main focus is on increasing profits and expanding the reach of your marketing it's incredibly easy to be taken down a dozen rabbit holes each day. There are so many marketing, leadership and small business experts giving abundant strategies to grow your business that it creates an obstacle course of to-dos fo
Have you ever been told that you’re not a team player or not a good communicator when you think you are? \ Have you ever wondered why you can’t get great results from those who support you in your business? Great leaders know how to create synergy with those around them. This is the effect of two or
Whenever you want to experience a huge breakthrough in your business, you have to start where you are. \ You may be disappointed that you’re not making more money at this point in your biz. If you’re just starting out you might be on pins and needles because you need to make money ASAP. Maybe you just quit yo
I caught myself being insane, and yet I kept doing the same thing over and over. My web goddess has used a Facebook plug-in on my website so people could comment and ask questions once they watched one of my training videos. I promised on the page that I would be responding daily and now I couldn’t post on the page.
'Tis the time of year to rethink your business model and upgrade. The easiest way to do this is to revisit (or create) your money funnel. Even if you’re a newbie, this is a great way to visually see where you want the money to funnel into your business. \ And for goodness sake, put the fun in FUNnel while you’
If you want to grow your business and reach your ideal clients and customers you’re going to have to let go of a lot of assumptions about what it takes to fill your pipeline. \ Let’s start off with a few common myths that may be stunting your growth … \ 1) I can’t make money until my website is finish
Entrepreneurs seem to have an endless supply of ideas for new products and services. What they often lack is the follow through to take an idea into a sellable format and the marketing 'know how' to back it up. \ You may be living this experience right now. You have a pretty good solution to a pretty common proble
I used to hate planning. Why plan, when you can just get into action? \ Fortunately, and unfortunately, playing that way got me to six figures in my business. I kept doing my business the only way I’d practiced up to that point… * Get an inspired idea. * Throw it out to my tribe. * Hope somethi
If you’d like to get a big juicy project moving forward and have a great time doing it, today is your lucky day. \ Your first step is to bring to mind that project that sits incomplete but nagging the corners of your mind daily. Or maybe it’s the project you know you should begin but it feels too hard, too big
I’m a tank top, shorts and flip-flops kind of girl. Suits are definitely not my thing. Yet, back in 1999, every month I put one on to lead a live workshop on cash flow. I hated putting on a costume so that the participants would think I was professional and smart. \ I totally trusted my ability to deliver the
