I always thought it would be cool to have the super powers to look in to a crystal ball and see my future. As I grew up I was educated that there was no such thing as a crystal ball. Now I believe there is a way to see into my future.
Everyone who owns a business has expertise that will be hugely appreciated by their customers. So why aren’t more business owners loud and proud about who they are and what they bring to the market place? I have a few hunches and my plan to stop this type of crime.
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 used to care about leaving a legacy behind. I thought having that focus would source some BIG thing from me and I like to think big. The truth is, I just want to make sure I don’t wimp out on things I feel inspired to experience or create in my world. \ Even when I say I like to think BIG, I realize my thinkin
If I were to grade myself for planning in my business I would have told you I’m definitely deserving of an A. Not A+ but getting there. Now, a week later I can see I was really more of a C or D student in the planning department. \ What’s changed? \ Last week I spent a day with the NY Times Best Selling
The first time I heard the term "the cringe factor" I was sitting in a comfortable chair in an enormous home theatre at Robert Allen's house. I was there to mastermind with other coaches and business experts. I had no idea what to expect but I knew something good was going to come from this day. \ I had intervie
I began my coaching career in my late twenties and I was very aware that I seemed to be one of the youngest guns in the bunch. When I went to professional networking meetings, I acted like my normal outgoing and fun self. When I was teaching a live seminar or communicating in my ezine I did my best to be professional.
Sometimes it’s good to stay put and not make major changes in your business. A busy schedule, a crazy relationship, high stress, or a new pet or child in the family may be all that you can handle at the moment. Focusing on one highly challenging situation at a time will prevent extreme overwhelm and physical
At some point in your life you’ve felt down, probably more than once. Somebody you cared about may have had a misfortune, your heart was broken, a health issue stopped you cold in your tracks or you had a financial disaster. Nobody is immune to feeling blue.

Give me a good book to read and I have a slice of heaven in my hands. One of my favorite types to read is true stories of survival. I'm hosting a book club at my house this month and my book choice is the mack-daddy survival story of all time: Unbroken. It follows Olympic athlete Louis Zamperini, through his life of ho
I inadvertently became an entrepreneur about the time I turned twenty-one. My mother told me that she and my brother were starting a business and I didn't want to be left out. I created two other businesses before going through coach training eight years later. \ By that time I knew how to connect with people, get
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
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
Man, when I want something really bad, you better not get in my way. I get my focus locked on it like a bull going after the cape. When I’m in this state of mind, I always get my desired end result. Always. \ Has that been your experience, too? If not, you better read on, because I have the light switch primed
It’s ironic that I named my business MasterPeace and then ditched peace for self-induced torture. Yep, there was nothing about my life or business that was easy. Any moment of triumph was immediately replaced with , “What do I have to do next?!” Isn’t it funny, that all dreams and goals start with a vis
If you’re in business, you market. Even if you say you’re not a good marketer, you still do it. But what if there was more to this marketing than anyone ever told you? \ And what if THAT'S the reason why your strategies don’t yield results or you feel really uncomfortable doing them? \ The American Mar
A majority of mankind bumbles through life doing things they think are good for them. But most never ask a simple question, "Is this action or behavior getting me the results I most desire?" \ And it's no different if you're a business owner. You get in a habit - some might call it a rut - taking similar actions
Most entrepreneurs have an abundance of ideas but have a difficult time determining which one is worthy of their time. Who wants to pour a bunch of energy and money into a project, company or product that may give little return on investment? Nobody. \ You always give something a whirl because you think you can ma
Some people just don’t get it. You watch them and internally you roll your eyes, throw up your hands and get exasperated. Unfortunately, some of those people are your current customers. \ There is only one way to whip them into shape…okay, I’m kidding. Put down the whip. You have to educate them on how to b
There are lots of ways to grow your business, work with clients and offer your products. Often it's challenging to know what to accept and what to decline. It's even more challenging when there is money offered to you and you desperately need it. Knowing your criteria for saying yes or no to something is critic
Chaos happens. It happens to everyone. Some people live in a constant state of chaos. It may not serve them but they accept and react to it like it’s normal. \ Chaos is not normal. Chaos is a direct reflection of your beliefs and how you perceive a situation. In many cases, chaos is simply a perspective. In orde
I’ll admit, it’s easy to get caught up in the magical miracle ways you can make money fast. “If you do X in your business, you can make millions” is the message coming from all directions. \"If you sign up for this class or that ecourse you can make six figures\" is another neon sign coming at you via the inter
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
If you’re a business growth junkie, you’ve heard a million times that you have to know your target market. Most companies can spit out a profile of their ideal customer but nothing about it feels personal. \ General knowledge of your market isn’t enough. You’ve got to get intimate with them. You
Whether you work from home or in an office, it's easy to settle in with your surroundings and create patterns that don't let you stretch into new territory. \ However, there are highly valuable resources under your nose that you are not tapping into for increased profits, ease and thrill bumps. \ Before I
When you build a business based on what feels good to you, it’s a guarantee for profits and fulfillment. But what happens when there is a tug-of-war between what feels good and what you’re supposed to do in business? \ It can feel very scary to do what feels good. It may seem selfish, uncaring to your custome
I love money. I mean I really love it. I love making it and I love spending it. I even like paying my monthly bills. Money makes me happy. And when we talk about how the Laws of Manifestation work, happiness attracts money. It’s a beautiful circle. \ Not everyone feels this way. Some people don’t want to deal
You have great business ideas and opportunities coming to you every day. Yes, even those of you in slumps have them. But having great ideas and opportunities doesn't always equal money in the bank. Even random acts of networking, marketing and planning don't necessarily mean any new business will come your way.
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
Often I find that clients are not getting their goals and experiencing frustration or sadness. They are caught up in their feelings but not truly observing what is happening. \ My client, John, was in deep need of attracting his ideal administrative assistant. For years, he kept hiring subpar people. They looked g
Are you planning… • for disaster? • to be broke? • to barely be making ends meet? • for extreme wealth? • to be let down? • on someone saving you? • for success? • for struggle? • for ease?
I'm often asked how I doubled, or tripled, my income in a short amount of time. My answer is usually so simple that it often doesn't make a lasting impression upon those who hear the answer. They go back into their business and sift through all the other strategies they've heard will grow businesses and then get into m
What got Apple Inc. from being valued at $5,309 in 1977 to $1.79 BILLION in 1980? Steve Jobs, you say. Partly, I say. Innovation. Steve Jobs was an innovator. A pioneer in the technology world. His big focus was not money, yet he attracted more than most. How does that work from a Law of Attraction perspective
When my mentor and mastermind group told me they were confused about my brand, I became confused. What? I’m the Law of Attraction coach. Hello, people. Can you hear me?! Isn’t it obvious what I offer? \ Apparently, they heard me fine - I was putting out mixed messages. I offered many solutions for lots of pro
It's fascinating how some people have no problems asking for what they want, while it doesn't occur to others to even ask. I watch the phenomenon show up in my classes all the time. People pay good money to get coached in a group program, where I promise that everyone will get coached, and then they apologize when they
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 many things for which you are waiting.
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
I’ve been pondering what it takes to double your business growth in a year. I’ve tripled my revenue in one year and doubled it another, using a very simple plan. I began by relaxing and letting go of control. Then I came up with a few practices and action steps.
Any idea that pops into your head and makes you excited is a good one. How do you know that you should follow through on that idea? Trust yourself, take action and you’ll get your evidence. Your inner guidance only gives you ideas that you have the resources and ability to create. In order to see the manifes
I was right in the middle of watching American Idol and my stomach began cramping. I thought it must be a gassy tummy and assumed it’d go away shortly. I was wrong. I barely slept a wink that night because of the intense pain. \ I had a very important list of tasks for the business that needed to be done the fo
Lingering thoughts about revenue can evoke stress even in those who are financially sound. It’s natural to set targets for bigger revenue generation. But when you contemplate the possibility of not making the goal, all chaos breaks lose in your mind. It’s even worse when your bank account is showing you the reality
“Why?” you ask. “Why does money always seem to be an issue for me?” \ Let me soothe your money feathers. It’s an issue for MOST people. Some of you focus on the issue more than others, but if I poke around a bit I can find places of resistance in most people. And this includes myself!
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.
Have you ever got spun up trying to figure out the details of a project and found yourself stuck because some of the details simply didn’t present themselves? I have, and more than once. I’ve also ruined joyous vacation planning by wondering how to figure out everything before my arrival.
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 know my coaching and teleclass clients do. You can go into overdrive in several ways: • Think about every scenario possible that could go wrong. • Think abou
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
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.
I've always been curious about what causes a person, hopelessly stuck in a rut in any facet of their life, to suddenly break free. • How do you lose weight after trying every diet and exercise program and nothing works? • How do you finally nail a financial target after being at the same wealth setpoint
