If there’s anything that’s going to block your light, that’s going to dim that lighthouse beam from within you, it is your engagement with lower-level energies. And when we are talking about level energy we are talking about – Fear and Doubt. There’s nothing like fear to turn out the lights, and there’s nothing like doubt to put a damper on your energetic signal of attraction. It’s uber-important that you understand this and have clear tools to be able to use to manage those lower-level energies when they come up. (And they will come up, trust me on this.)

Several years ago, my friend, Dr. Jed Diamond explained how masculine acculturation was creating a huge obstacle for men in the workforce: both young and old. As the world moves from an industrial model to a "post-industrial" (or knowledge-based) economy, the skill sets most in demand evolve ...

According to a recent study by Babson College and Baruch College, U.S. entrepreneurship rates have climbed to their highest level in more than a decade. Some attribute this to the fact that after the financial crisis of 2007, hundreds of corporations went belly-up and workers either lost their jobs or realized there was no longer financial security. Others feel it’s because so many are realizing the huge potential of self-employment. No matter the reason, one thing is clear

“It’s not about what’s on the other side, it’s about the climb” There are movies in history that touch the lives of many but it’s usually due to the violence, action, key word phrases or some other stimuli other than our sense of well being and self awareness that embeds them in our subconscious. Some that come to mind are Star Wars, Terminator, Jerry Maguire and Breakfast Club to name a few. Movies tend be have a lasting effect on our lives because it’s in all of us to want to make an impact on someone else’s life.

What's a Niffler, you ask? Well, if you've read Happy Potter and the Goblet of Fire, you might remember that a Niffler is a critter that hunts treasure. Once it finds one treasure, it moves on quickly in search of the next prize. Do you do the same thing in your business? Meaning, are you a constant gatherer of the things that you think will move your business ahead, but not so much the implementer of them? Do you get distracted by anything and everything that's new in your industry?

Once in a while I run into a paradox in life – when in order to achieve something I have to do what feels like the total opposite. Recently I’ve discovered that in order to achieve a certain type of success I’ve had to stop focusing on solving the problem and surrender into it. Now the first time this concept was revealed to me I rejected it completely. I had up to that point defined much of my success on my innate ability to see a problem, find all the possible ways to solve it, pick the best solution and get into action. I am a problem solver!

Have you ever wondered how some entrepreneurs always seem to create such big successes, while you are stuck “just paying the bills” or struggling to make ends meet? The secret that those entrepreneurs have tapped into is what I use and coach my students and clients to cultivate… a mindset of what I like to call, Being Considerably Huge™. The soul-filled entrepreneurs you see out there creating big things (and receiving BIG results) know that the single most important thing you can do to expand your bank account is to expand your DREAMS.

There has been a ripoff report running somewhere on the internet claiming that Maigrit PLC Ike Madu is a guy who never pays his debts. The ripoff report saying that a company has lent a certain amount of money to Mr. Ike Madu, CEO of Maigrit PLC – London U.K, is fake. This ripoff report is deemed to be a bait for Maigrit PLC Ike Madu to apply for Ripoff Report’s VIP Arbitration Program or to their Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program. Bo

It is in your best interest to know that men find great enjoyment and pleasure in women. Every man want a woman that brings him great enjoyment, a feeling of happiness, delight or satisfaction. The truth is that every man see better than he can think.

I want to begin my article series for 2010 with the seemingly incongruous topic of 'death' for a number of very good reasons, the first of which would be having experienced the unexpected death of a favorite aunt only a few days ago on New Year's eve. We certainly had not planned on ringing in a new decade with the rituals of mou ing. However, life's vagrancies pay no attention to our expectations. Not ever. Yet, as a culture, we seem to be obsessed with the denial of death.

Choosing to shift into BEing in the business of service rather than selling someone will make all the difference in supporting your ideal clients in EASILY being able to step forward into working with you… to the point where they are thanking you as they give you their credit card number! (Seriously, I see it happen ALL the time. It’s 110% possible.) To create that shift – from SELLING to SERVING you begin by: A) becoming aware of your current Money Mindset B) deciding to use that awareness to transform to a new upleveled Money Mindset for purpose-filled successrnr

I’m sure you’ve heard of the Law of Attraction, yes? “Thoughts become things” is a popular saying today. But here’s the thing … this is especially true for those of us with heart-centered businesses. You as a conscious business owner must be aware of your thoughts, feelings and actions and use them to propel your business forward. And here’s the most important thing… it’s one thing to get the Law of Attraction on an intellectual level and it’s a whole other thing to really have this energy working for you and bringing you the business success you desire.

So, do you want to be a coach? Do you believe you have some expertise or experience to share with others to help them achieve their goals? Do you see yourself as a life coach, a business coach, relationship or success coach? Or have you signed up as a coach for a children's or employee team? ...

Much like the Califo ia gold rush back in the day where not many people were enthusiastic about finding gold until the initial few actually gained the Midas touch, the internet has had its share of spam sites, programs, courses and jobs that have cheated many. Don’t let that deter you though; all you need while scouring the online matrix is to keep both eyes open and peak your sense of discretion during these trying economic times.

You keep your real, true self hidden…

How To Build And Maintain A Career In Music With A Mentor By Tom Hess One of the biggest challenges you will face early on as you start a career in music is simply ‘not knowing’ what to do. Fact is, many musicians do not know much about the music industry in the beginning. As a result, it takes them many years to make progress as they slowly accumulate experience using a hit-and-miss approach to learning about the music industry. Fortunately, this is not the only

There is a lot of talk about young entrepreneurs and teen entrepreneurs these days. There are many who are starting off at an early age and making it big in the business world and that is probably discouraging those in their thirties and forties. If you have the same thoughts, you should know that it is never too late. In fact, history is proof that there are plenty of entrepreneurs who started late and saw a lot of success. Albert Einstein is among them. Other big names incl

Ever had one of those million-dollar ideas? You know, the kind of lightbulb-over-the-head ideas that you just know without a shadow of a doubt will change not only your life but also the lives of everyone you share it with? And yes, as its name suggests, will net you millions upon millions of dollars as your ‘just reward’ for being the clever-clogs who was bright enough to think of the idea in the first place. I’m sure you have. After all, we’ve all had these ideas haven’

I was coaching a client one day who was feeling rather overwhelmed with trying to launch her new idea. I invited her to start a process of writing down all of the responsibilities, projects, tasks and other “shoulds” that she had swimming around in her mind. When she called in for her next coaching session, I asked her how many things she had on her list. She had filled four pages of stuff that had to get done—right now! As we went through her list the problem became crystal-clear, and it’s what I call the Multiple Train Syndrome. This is why running your business alone doesn’t work.

Peter Vekselman is one of those people to whom doing the usual and customary thing runs contrary to the way he is wired. Instead of going the traditional and culturally accepted route of getting a job after college and working his way up the corporate ladder, he instead opted for the ...

From time to time, every entrepreneur (I don’t care WHO you are) becomes the actor, desperately trying to decide whether or not to spend money on the growth of his/her business, when to spend it and on what. It feels as if we are walking on a tightrope, fearing that one slight wrong move in any ...

One of the comments I hear often, especially from female clients, is: “I am my own worst enemy-critic.” Not surprisingly, many claim to be perfectionists. As we all know, anything brought to its extreme can be unhealthy, and it is no different with perfectionism. This article is dedicated to all of you who tend to be hard-on-yourself perfectionists, and deals with how perfectionism can be either helpful or harmful. Here are: Top 5 Ways Entrepreneurial Perfectionists Block Success 1.

Authors are ideal sources for stories, making it easier than ever to get story placement. 2.

Yep, I know it is not the thing to say… We are supposed to be all about balance and mindfulness and crazy nonsense like that… And workaholics are not supposed to care about their families and they are supposed to get sick and die sad lonely lives…

Your creative powers are infinite. Yup...think about it. You come from the same source as all of nature around you. Look at fruit trees. How do you think those fruit push themselves up the trunk, through the branches and then hang themselves like beautiful ornaments in just the right place? Well we don’t really know how it works, but we know it’s creation. You cannot not create. I know...many of you just don’t feel creative. Maybe your definition of “creative” has been too n

Do you have people (those who know you, like you, trust you, love you, and want the best for you) who are constantly giving you new clients? If not there is most likely only ONE reason why not ... they don't know what you're up to and who your ideal clients are! See, most people are REALLY ...

...and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. There's not a person in our Western culture alive today who wasn't brought up hearing or reading Clement Clark Moore's poem from 1823, "A Visit from Saint Nicholas." Regardless of your religious beliefs and ...

There is no doubt the two most monumental days of a parent’s life are when their kids go off to kindergarten and when they graduate from college. All parents raise their children wanting them to succeed in life no matter their chosen path or discipline. They aspire for them to have more, make better choices and position themselves for lasting fulfillment and prosperity. But, when they made that life changing decision to go off to college and choose a path what was it based upon? What ideals and set of rules governed their decision?

Since you are here to learn the 5 ways to avoid burnout this season and year, I will cut to the chase. Here are time tested and proven methods of keeping your personal batteries perpetually charged and robust. 1. Clear out the drudgery from your life: This may be boxes filled with painful memories, excess items (even e-mails), or your social masks – what you may be attaching yourself to that may also be draining you of your personal vitality. What will be the result?

When I begin to coach clients I ask them to share with me: - What do you want to do with your business? rn- What results do you want to accomplish? To support you in moving towards those desires I start with identifying where there are ‘energy mismatches’ that may be holding you back from your desired results. And those ‘energy mismatches’ are always at the inner and outer level. One area I see entrepreneurs have a major mismatch around is your mismatch with money. The first step to align your energy for more money is to discover and direct your money beliefs.

One of the most important aspects of having selling process that’s effective is having a step-by-step plan that you follow every time you connect with a potential client. This plan is designed to: A) Help your client activate their inner guidance and make a choice about how to best work with you. B) Guide them to making a commitment to you, your service or product because they feel called to do so and because what you have to offer is going to help them feel the way that they want to feel.

I'm not sure if your business is based totally on passive signups or if you need to talk with people. All I know is that if you really want to be effective you are going to have to contact people. Technology has changed things drastically and one thing I know is that it can make your time in business very productive. One of my main tools is an auto dialer. With this "in the cloud" software I can upload a list of people that I want to contact and the system does all the dialing for me.

Data entry is the act of transcribing some form of data into another form, usually a computer program. It involves maintaining, updating, and retrieving information stored on computer and sometimes on paper. You will usually be entering both text and numbers into spreadsheets or databases, so it is important to be able to type accurately and fast enough, and have a good working knowledge of most software commonly used office software. Some people work in jobs that are exclusi

I am frequently asked "what kind of business can I have"? While there are several forms of business, most NPs and PAs choose a clinical practice. And while most chose primary care, more are choosing a niche or specialty practice. One such niche is urinary incontinence (UI) care. A continence practice is a fantastic opportunity for the advanced practice clinician. There are three very important factors for this type of business. First, there is a huge need; second there are few clinicians involved and finally, the evaluation, management and procedures are reimbursable.

There are so many theories as to what it takes to be successful- hard work, perseverance, dedication, loyalty to an employer, integrity, and the list goes on. Each of these attributes is important, however without personal development, none of it matters. You can be the most hard working individual there is, however if you do not take time to improve yourself, you will continue to be just a hard worker. Personal development is not something that can occur in a specified timeframe. I cannot decide today to take a personal development class or read a book and transform.

Your client’s check bounced and now you have to call them (again) to get paid. Cashing checks was NOT why you left your job, was it? Come to think about it, you don’t like having to handle all this financial stuff anyway. What a pain! Your new program (or product) fell short of your revenue projections. Disappointed, you start to doubt whether it’s a good offering. That seed of doubt makes you fantasize how easy it would be just to sell someone else’s’ stuff.

Franchisors and Franchisees: there are many conversations, in person and online, that are attempting to determine responsibility and accountability for the success or failure of a franchise. There is now chatter about whether buying into a franchise is a great retirement plan or a prison sentence…. (On LinkedIn, Franchise Network Discussion Group) Being that I am a franchisee myself, as well as a coach with franchise consulting experience, here is my take, short and sweet: The candidate absolutely should engage expertise and counsel by a franchise consultant and a franchise lawyer.

I was talking with a colleague the other day about their business. Like me, their ideal client already has an established business and knows they want to grow through scalable strategies and automation. As we were bouncing around some ideas of where those clients are I asked him, “Do you think you’ve lost some ideal clients along the way who could benefit from your system but left anyway?” The answer was “Of course…but I don’t know how to reach them.”

Picture it! You’re sitting by yourself in your office, or maybe you are out at a restaurant waiting on friends. You suddenly have a ‘eureka’ moment, or to kill time waiting you begin to draft some business ideas and plans out on a napkin or a scratch piece of paper. You get done scribbling out your ideas and plans, or your friends show up, and you stick that napkin or paper in your pocket or desk drawer. Unfortunately for most, they are never to be seen again.

10 days without food seemed impossible to me at first. I told myself how could I possible do that? This was the first time, since birth, that I was going to attempt to live a normal life yet not eat for 10 days. Why am I doing this? I decided it would be great to clean my body as we are starting the new year and health body means a healthy and great life. Under the advice from my health mentor I set about on day 1 of my cleanse. All seemed fairly easy. I had my water, lemon, cayenne pepper and maple syrup drink to keep me happy and it appeared to be easy for me.

“Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.” ~Mark Victor Hansen

The only thing constant about entrepreneurship is change. If you’re not one for change, prefer the status quo and like to keep things “as is” for was long as possible, then being the CEO of your own business is probably not for you. Nothing will kill your online business faster than stagnation. Keeping your business current is the name of the game. Although this doesn’t mea “chasing rabbits” or having ‘bright shiny object syndrome”. Nor does it mean dumping your core values.

The thing is, you'll find that this system in particular, out of all of your business systems, will have tiny off-spring systems. For instance, you have your overall system that may include: Word of mouth Networking Email Campaigns Direct Mail Campaigns Internet Marketing Speaking Writing ...

Many entrepreneurs struggle with the basics getting started with a home business. They have the drive, ambition and creativeness but lack the organizational skills required. As you begin your journey down the entrepreneurial path, keep in mind that while you are your own boss, and are accountable to only you, if you don't spend your time being productive you will fall the wayside along with the other 97% of entrepreneurs that begin this journey. Take the time to form habits. Get yourself in a routine.

If you want to create different and better results for yourself and your team, at work and/or home, consider going a step further in your self-development and expanding your inner self. If you continue managing your time, finances, people and stress, and additionally, focus your attention and actions on what matters in your life, professionally and personally, you will begin to manifest more of what is on your wish or dream list. This is called “stretching” your current state of being. Why is this important? - Because there are only 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year: limited time.
