Message
From The President |
|
|
|
 |
This week, I'm relishing in the success
of the Marketing Magic Marathon workshop
we conducted last week.
Three other speakers and I held a
workshop for small business owners and
sales professionals at a beautiful venue
in South Phoenix.
I'd been contemplating producing an
event like this for years, but frankly
didn't have the guts to do it. |
|
|
|
|
|
I was on a conference call last December with my
coach,
Kendall, listening to a guest presenter who
was speaking about the value of producing
workshops. She spoke about how terrified
she was when she launched her first event.
She shared how she literally stood BEHIND her
business partner while whispering into the
microphone and the event was still a tremendous
success.
I thought that if she could do it, then
I could do it - and not only that I
could do it, I should do it. I knew I
needed to just get off the fence (or off my
fears as the case may be) and make it happen.
The speaker then told us that the first steps
for getting started were to pick a date and book
the venue. She didn't say figure out what
you're going to talk about or how much you're
going to charge or who else will be working with
you.
So I stepped out on faith and then began
gathering the resources to make it happen.
I'm clear it would not have been the success
that it was without the support of brilliant
speakers and a wonderfully supportive team of
people who helped get the word out, produce
materials for the event, assisted in the
logistics, etc.
But it all started with me getting myself out of
neutral and into gear.
What I got from that fateful call a few months
ago was...
COMMIT; put your .... on the line & get started! |

ARTICLE – I BELIEVE |

What dreams to you have? What great,
inspired ideas are languishing in those dark
places in your mind awaiting the right about
of courage or time or knowledge for YOU
to get started?
I challenge you to set aside your doubts and
know that the idea would not have come to
you if you didn't possess the internal
resources to bring it to fruition.

In
preparing for the workshop, I listened
to Yolanda Adams' rendition of
I Believe I Can Fly (original
lyrics by R. Kelly).
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, then there's
nothing to it.
I believe I can fly,
I think I can touch the sky.
I think about it night and day.
Spread my wings and fly away... |
 |
There are miracles in your life that you are
meant to manifest. See yourself running through
the open door directly into that brave new world
only you are meant to create. Feel as though it
is already done. Let go of your self-imposed
limits, fears, excuses, justifications,
procrastinations...
As another inspiring woman speaker I heard
several years ago remarked, "I believe that if I
step off of a cliff, I'll either land on solid
ground or I'll start flying." |
| |
|
So think about your dreams, and every night and
day, say to yourself, "I believe I can fly
because I believe in me".
Then trust yourself and start flying. |

you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness

SYNDICATED
ARTICLE - Accept it and Know What to Do
with It

by:
Irma Givens, reprinted with
permission
Have you ever had a major setback stop you in
your tracks? Well, you're not by yourself. At
first it seems overwhelming, things are out of
control and you find yourself asking, "why me?"
Guess what? It's not only you. We all experience
setbacks, some more than others, during our
lifetime. For me, it was a sudden unexpected
event. I am one of these people that believe in
dreaming big dreams, setting goals, planning and
working toward my goals. I felt like all my
ducks were in a row. Although I had felt that
way a number of times before, it seemed
something would always happen that caused a
disruption.
Yeah that's it! It's all cyclical. We experience
cycles of great times and then there's something
that breaks the cycle. Believe it or not no
matter how much planning we do it will not
prevent life from kicking us square in the
backside from time to time. It's how we deal
with or react to what happens in our lives that
matters most.
