I see you, Leader… And you are lying! Lying over and over and over again about what you claim to want… About what you claim your life is supposed to be about… About how busy you are… Actually, no… You are not lying about being busy! Of course you are so busy…

Everyday, we are asked for this password and that password… This PIN number or that PIN number… There is security everywhere trying to keep us safe. Trying to stop people from stealing our identities and our money.

The expression of pain on her face said it all. My client Lola and I were talking about marketing her business, and I brought up, again, the topic of video. She grimaced, and looked away. “Yeah, I should do that…” she said, as her voice trailed off. I hear this over and over from my clients. When I do, I know it’s [eerie organ music plays] VIDEO ANXIETY. Aahhhhh! Video anxiety can reduce the most capable business person to a puddle of indecision and inaction. And I unders

Love and business? What the…uh, heck? We don’t often talk about love and business together. The labor part, sure… but love? Love is not only part of your business, it’s literally and figuratively at the heart of it. The truth is, love is sweet labor. When you choose to dedicate yourself to your business, that’s an act of love. When you serve your clients – oh! – there it is again, love in action. The same is true for every aspect of your business. Love only for yourself,

Procrastination. I know. You may look at that word and think, “Can we talk about that later?” The answer is no—unless you have already achieved everything that you would like to. Recently, I came across a theory around why people procrastinate. I found it intriguing and then it stayed with me because of its (um, uncomfortable) accuracy. I thought it might be helpful to share what I learned: WHY we procrastinate, WHAT is often lurking unde eath and HOW we can address and beg

What makes one business better than another? Better at making money. Better at marketing. Better at setting up great systems. Yes, all the great business skills that people put into practice definitely play a role. But it’s more than that. Every business that puts those skills into practice doesn’t necessarily do as well as the founders had hoped, in a sustainable way. What’s missing in those businesses that don’t achieve their promise is mojo. Mojo is about impact. About

Most people are waiting, waiting, waiting for something outside of themselves to change. They think that when it changes then life will suddenly take on a more hopeful light and then they can get the transformation they have been waiting for forever…

Have you ever noticed how people react when they have had it UP to here and they can’t take it anymore? Has it happened to you? It’s called “Overwhelm.” So what do we do with it, we ask? a) We change the situation b) We change “our Perception” of the situation c) We Leave the situation or d) We cope with the situation Then, we prioritize, we make a list, and slowly begin to discern the “MUST DO’s” by putting number or symbols indicating the level of urgency.

Entrepreneurs find that there are a number of different approaches to conducting marketing research as they go about gathering data that is vital to the success of their new venture. Conducting surveys is the classic approach, which has frankly been overused by both new and established companies. Basic marketing theory and practical experience both tell us that one of the biggest disadvantages in using surveys is that they are limited in the information that they can offer. M

When I’m asked about the one thing I did to leap my business from frustrating five figures to over a million dollars in just three short years, my answer is always, “I joined a Master Mind!” Reason is, before I was in a Master Mind I let myself get bogged down with the details of running my business, I didn’t have any accountability which made it easy to let myself slide on deadlines, and I often found myself caught in a cycle of self-doubt or confusion because I didn

Sustaining an NGO requires mindset change, where leaders think businesswise. You are not sustainable if you have to first beg in order to serve your beneficiaries. NGO sustainability is the ability to continue its core activities even without local or international donor funding. Many NGOs now look at sustainability in the context of being free from international donor funding. That is half the picture. Do you have sustainable revenue streams to deliver your mandate and satis

Why did I go into business for myself? A job is easier. You know it and I know it. You get up at the same time every day. You grab a cup of coffee, hop in the shower, put on the required outfit (depending on what you do) and get in the car. You drive to the train, the bus, the freeway - however you commute. You listen to the radio, or you sleep, or you read and then you're there. You work with the same people every day. You perform the same activities. You work the same hours

Recently, I listened to a Neil Patel podcast. He and his partner, Larry Sui, maintained that in order to be a good salesperson, you need to believe you can be successful. In other words, mindset is everything. Skeptical, I took to Instagram. I polled Instagrammers and asked them if mindset made for success. Instagrammers said, “no.” A difference in opinion! Let’s look at the personas of two people I know that make their living in sales, a female and a male, and see if m

Most service providers and helping professionals, coaches, consultants, or change agents get into business by accident. Here is how it often looks. Sally is unhappy. She wants to change her life.

In the next 20 years, you may get bored seeing more and more books analyzing the effects of the current economic crisis and what brought it on. But, at the very beginning of this financial crisis, I've found the first book to advocate a new financial platform and address the biggest problem: adding more jobs and restoring worldwide financial stability.

Some people like to judge others. They say others are too rich, too greedy, too worldly, too money-focused, too selfish or too lazy and it all is a reflection of what they themselves are on the inside.
