A New Entrepreneur's Journey to Success Begins Here On a recent call with my mentees, one of the topics we discussed was around making sure you're spending the time necessary to build and grow your online business and that your family members are supportive of your goals. Having a bird's eye view of a new entrepreneur's journey to success cane be exhilarating! We had just over half of our members with us that morning, and one person who was not there has definitely earned the right to take … [Read more...]

Limiting Beliefs May Be Holding You Back Are you continually disappointed about how much (or little) money you’re making in your business each month? If you’re stuck at a certain income level and can’t break through no matter how many Reels you record or social media posts you share or well-crafted sales emails you send, your limiting money beliefs around money could be the culprit. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, limiting beliefs are exactly what they sound like: beliefs that … [Read more...]
The Courthouse in Miami
It was a sweltering Wednesday afternoon in Miami on the 21st of July in 1971. Two years earlier on this day, astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man to step onto the moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission. This was one of the most significant events in human history, marking a milestone in space exploration. At precisely the same time and just over a thousand miles north of the courthouse in Miami, President Richard M. Nixon and H. R. ("Bob") Haldeman were meeting in the President's … [Read more...]
Achieving the Greatness You Have Within

My Life as Ongoing Story Ideas
My Life, as Told in Story Ideas In the world of writing, more specifically scripts and screenplays, everyone knows that we don't share our story ideas. You cannot copyright your ideas or concepts, so by putting your story ideas online, you are vulnerable. Agents and editors don't steal stuff; it's other writers who are more likely to steal ideas. I do not advise posting fiction excerpts online just to see what happens. I've seen ideas get taken before, and I always advise writers on the safe … [Read more...]
Do for a Year What Others Won’t
Are You Willing to Do for a Year What Others Won't? Early on in my journey as an online entrepreneur, I chose a motto that would resonate not only with me, but with people all over the world. It's "Do for a Year What Others Won't; Live, Forever the Way Others Can't." It was in 2008, just as I had reached six-figures a year in my online business and had begun my first mentoring program. Elyse was my age and we'd both been students at UCLA during the late 1970s. She was married and they had a … [Read more...]

You can! Navigating your next chapter is a way to redefine your purpose and live your best life, no matter where you find yourself right now.

Productivity with Digital Decluttering
Productivity Enhanced: The Benefits of Digital Decluttering Do you remember life before the Internet, monitors, and displays relentlessly attacked your senses? For those of us who do, one of the biggest differences between then and now can be seen in our relationships. When fewer things were fighting for our attention, it was easier to maintain our focus on our relationships. I want you to think about productivity with digital decluttering. That doesn't happen as much these days. … [Read more...]
How You Do Anything Is How You Do Everything
Are You Achieving the Level of Success You Want and Deserve? Early on in my journey toward a life of writing and entrepreneurship, I heard a saying that stuck with me... "How you do anything is how you do everything." This quote is attributed to the insightful thought leader and author Martha Beck. It made sense as soon as I heard it, yet it played over and over in my mind each time I thought about its meaning in the days that followed. Was it really true? Could my personality, traits, … [Read more...]
The Power of Saying ‘No’
The Power of Saying "No" How often do you say "No"? Not often enough, I'm guessing. The power of saying no is a force to be reckoned with. ‘No’ is naturally thought of as a negative word. We're taught from the time that we are young to avoid the word ‘no.’ We use the word to refuse things, turn down opportunities, and declare ourselves as unyielding and unmoving. In fact, we are often told not to use it. • ‘Yes’ is shown to us as being bold and energizing, making you open to … [Read more...]
