“Money is the visible sign of a universal force, and this force in its manifestation on earth works on the vital and physical planes and is indispensible to the fullness of the outer life. In its origin and its true action it belongs to the Divine.” Sri Aurobindo When you listen to CNN these days, to what reporters are finding as they interview Americans from all over the country---the same theme comes up time after time---jobs, the economy—the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$. It is no wonder, especially when you realize how basic having enough money is to everything.

All of the things you think make you worthy of the win, do not…

April 9th, 2012 This job search environment is extremely difficult. Anyone who is in this market right now can attest to that. The stress associated with the search can prove to be very daunting and downright disturbing to the sanity of those searching. You have bills, spouses, friends and a host of other issues to deal with during this dilemma. A lot of time is spent just trying to breathe.

A lot of clients tell me that they do not feel like experts… They feel a little like frauds actually! And maybe you feel that way too so can I help you out a little? ONE – You do know more than most about your subject… because you have studied it more than most.
Being an entrepreneur is bigger than just owning a business. It allows real transformation to happen. Transformation in you as a person, and as a business person. And it goes even further than that. That opportunity to transform goes hand in hand with your ability to have impact. You impact every aspect of your business. All the aspects of the 'what' and the 'how' of your business are determined by you and your vision. Through that, you affect everyone who works with you. Th
The first key into the success of business balance is to recognize that passive energy is not weak, but actually strong and that actually without this energy the male energy of action is weakened. You may be going around acting, acting, acting, but without this passive energy there is no wisdom ...

More and more a website is becoming essential for any practice. The big question is how do you get one. While it is possible to go out and hire someone to build you a website, it's also possible to design and create a website for those of you who want to do it yourself. Website planning is the same regardless of which method you choose. 1. Choose a domain name. In many cases this will be your practice. Attempt to purchase it as a dot-com. You can purchase your domains from various domain resellers. The one that I use is GoDaddy.
Most people think that once you get yourself established as a “household name” you can sit back, relax and wait for clients to come a-knocking at your door, asking for your “oh so exalted” pearls of wisdom.
How often have you gotten to the end of your day and thought, "I have no idea what I accomplished today. I worked hard all day, but have little to show for it?" We've all done it, me included. That's the power of busywork. You work all day, and nothing significant moves. If you let it, busywork can creep in and, over time, destroy your business. At the very least, it's a barrier to the success you are working to achieve. Busywork can kill your motivation. It keeps you from f
A myth behind youth entrepreneurship implies that your child will be ensnared in hours of tasks, taking away from his limited childhood. After all, he has time to learn the 8 to 5 role when he reaches adulthood and is forced to make his own way.
Small business ownership is a risk and reward type of existence from the standpoint as an entrepreneur you really have to 'put it out there' but when you succeed, it's sweet! Internet entrepreneurs in particular are a breed that tend to 'push the envelope' a little bit more since financial risks are not what they would be in a traditional 'brick and mortar' business! Nonetheless there are 3 realities one must accept and address if you intend to achieve small business success
I know you want it… The automated way to get more customers, clients, recruits, with minimal input from you… You want to set up this machine and see them coming in over and over and over again with no more work from you… And yes, it can happen but you will always work the system. Even the people telling you about push-button success, are working the system. They are showing up still in your news-feed, in your mind space and they are selling you on the fact that you can automate it all but they don’t! Because you cannot automate relationship!

As we move through this holiday season, there's a lot to do. Juggling family expectations, events with friends, and keeping your business shipshape can start to feel overwhelming. And it's not only this time of year. Any business that is growing is also changing. That can start to feel like a lot for one entrepreneur to handle. The good news is, you don't have to do it alone.

You know how you have these big, hidden dreams inside of you that you want to make happen? The ones you don’t ever really share out loud with the people in your world. The ones you feel you have to qualify and make small. The ones you are still not sure came from Spirit and so you are not really sure you are allowed to want that.
One of the biggest mistakes most entrepreneurs make is becoming emotionally controlled by factors that are totally OUT of their control. Such as: an impossible prospect, market trends, someone else's ultimate decision, attempting as 1 person to do the work of 5, unexpected cancellations, delayed transactions, other people's attitudes or opinions. And the list goes on - and on - and on - and - I think you get it. Have you ever had that experience? I thought so. So here's the p
Let me start by telling you a story. Joe had a problem, so he took it to his pastor. “Pastor, I’m having trouble tithing these days.” The pastor asked, “What seems to be the hang-up?”nn“Well, back when I made $50 a week, I tithed $5, which was easy. And when I made $500 a week, I tithed $50, which was okay. But now that I make $5,000 a week, I’m having a hard time. $500 a week in tithe is a lot of money! Will you pray for me, pastor?&

Marketing on the internet offers the opportunity for many to avoid the heavy outlay of cash needed to start an offline 'brick and mortar' type of business.

<img src="http://rosemarynonnyknight.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Copy-of-Copy-of-building-a-business-5.png" width="500"/> Today, I am starting the ‘FREE YOUR SEXUALITY’ free 3 day mini-course and it scares me a little because I will be asking people to think through the rules they live to in terms of their sexuality. And people get scared when their foundations get shaken. And scared people can lash out at the messenger.
One of the 'features' of entering into the midlife transition happens to be the dawning realization of just how tenuous our connection to this plane of existence really is. I fondly remember evenings as a student in Ottawa, Ontario spent at the Colonel Bye lounge enjoying the comedy of ...
I woke up… I felt down… And I faced a choice - Allow my day to be defined by that feeling or Create a powerful day DESPITE the feeling? I chose the path of the creator. I used to choose the other path - the path of the victim. I reacted to life and my feelings.
Often when first connecting with clients I'll hear basic business blocks that sound like: Yeah, but what gives me the right to teach others how to [fill in service here]?? What if I'm not qualified enough? Yeah, but I can't because of [fill in not-so-great past or present experience]. What ...
<img src="" width="500"/> It takes courage to be the leader… To be the one that keeps showing up even when it feels like no one is listening… To have a dream, a huge big dream that no one else can see… It takes courage to believe enough in yourself to just keep putting it out into the marketplace… To keep telling people on social media TO EVEN START telling people anywhere and everywhere… Or to put on that event where you are not sure that anyone will come… Or to do that online course that no one might buy… It is easier to play it small…
<img src="http://rosemarynonnyknight.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Copy-of-Copy-of-building-a-business-18.png" width="500"/> I used to live an unquestioned life… Passively agreeing with anyone that seemed more knowledgeable than me… Passively believing that I was inherently flawed and unable to make wise choices for myself… Passively trying to avoid hell… Desperately avoiding having to look within myself… Wanting others to take responsibility for my decisions (even though I was always considered a rebel!)… Because I might make a mistake.
Every experience is an energy exchange. If you're focused on only what you can get from a prospect, your fear of not signing on the prospect or being withholding about the amount of time you're spending with this person, your energy will be resonating at a very low level. This makes all the ...
A business owner recently asked for time management strategies for busy entrepreneurs. Aren’t we all insanely busy running our businesses? Most of the people that I work with – my clients, my customers – are solo entrepreneurs which are one-person businesses or very tiny businesses that have less than 10 people in them. My first response is that I gave up on the concept of “time management” a long time ago and I decided that I needed to re-frame that in order for me to have the most productive days that I possibly could.
As a shareholder in a company you have the opportunity to be a leader of a team. You will need a vision as well as a plan. Vision is the adrenaline of the soul; it will keep your team motivated. . Your vision statement is your long term goal for your business. The vision statement should be will written with a sense of passion. After you have completed your vision statement you should write a plan of how you are going to fulfill your vision. A vision without a plan is just a dream. The other important element to being a good leader is having a good relationship with your team.
One of the biggest challenges many of my clients have is getting enough visitors to their websites.

Financing a business in Canada. A challenge? Let's just say that's an understatement when it comes to working capital, debt, and ongoing management and recognition of finance problems and opportunities. Are there some ' Golden Rules' we could follow. We think so.
<img src="http://rosemarynonnyknight.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/4-Things-Needed-To-Grow-Your-Purpose-Driven-Business-6.png" width="500"/> People find it easier most times to stay on the surface, when speaking with me… They just want to talk about business growth strategies and how to get their books out there or art or music or products or whatever… Even though I know that I could give them the magic bullet strategy every single minute of every single day but without internal clarity and wholeness, there is no way they will take consistent action on the strategy…

Here are 10 easy ways you can say thank you to your clients: 1. Greeting Cards My husband often teases me that I should own stock in Hallmark for the amount of money I spend a year on cards.

Sound familiar? When everything is a priority, deadlines are looming, and there just isn’t enough of you or your team to go around, how do you cope with the stress, stay focused on results, and make things happen? Perhaps you rely on the axiom, “I do my best work under pressure”. In truth, ...

Developing new indie film ideas A good director is always considering new ideas for movies in order to stay on top and in the publicâs eye. One way this can be done is by hiring an outside company to search and look for talent and ideas that will work in your movies. Although this may cost more than other techniques, this may be the most effective and direct way to gain new and innovative ideas. Other ways to search for new ideas are to survey the public.

Feelings, sometimes nothing more than feelings, define a brand, including a personal brand. What about yours? If Disneyland is the happiest place on earth, than emotion must be an integral factor in successful branding. Coke would like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony, so the warm fuzzy feeling of connection – not fizzy water and syrup must be the bigger attraction there. Nike with its whoosh of freedom and lack of emphasis on its shock absorbers and Apple with its tout about imagination not processing speed, must understand the same thing.

It is that simple, leader… You plant your feet firmly on the narrow path and you look the vision in the eye… And you say… “I am making this happen” “I will never ever back down” “I will do what others only talk of doing” “I will defeat my internal negativity”
