From The President |

There are times when I hear a faint
whisper to take some action: call
someone, send a card or or email or
write down a great idea that just popped
into my head. You know those times. We
might say to ourselves, "That's a good
idea."
There are times that my rational mind
though says "No! I'm busy!" and the idea
slips away. Maybe it comes back,
maybe not.
There are occasions when I do say
"Yes" to those moments of insight. I've
come to know those whisperings as
magnificent gifts and have begun to
trust the voice that provided them.
|
|
|
|
|
When I act on those gifts, generally wonderful
things happen. I connect with someone I've
been trying (unsuccessfully) to reach. I start a
new relationship with a client or colleague.
A door to a bright future opens.
I invite you to start listening for those
whisperings. I know you have them.
Say "Yes!" when that inspired voice speaks up.
The voice may be really faint at first, but if
you listen and take action, it will become
stronger and more clear. It will guide you
toward your Dream Destination, where ever that
is for you. Make a commitment now to listen and
ACT! |

ARTICLE –
THE ROAD TO JEROME |
|
|
I had the pleasure of speaking to the Sedona
chapter of the National Association of Women
Business Owners (NAWBO) last week. They are
a great group of women and I LOVE it up
there in the high desert!
Since I don't get up to that area much, I decided
to take a leisurely drive back home and
enjoy the sights. I stopped by the
Chapel on the Hill atop one of the areas
famous vortexes. It holds a very special
place in my heart. My husband and I
dated in the early 1970's (OK, I'm dating
myself, but I'm actually proud of my age),
then separated and reconnected more than 30
years later in 2002.
|
|
When I came to visit Phoenix later that year
to visit him, we took a
day trip up to Sedona. So there we
are back in 2002 taking a break and
enjoying the serenity that is
characteristic of Sedona's majestic Red
Rock Country.
Anyway, a couple of weeks ago,
someone was talking about the
interesting town of Jerome and I
decided that I would like to visit
Jerome
one day also though I didn't quite know
where it was. |
 |
After the NAWBO speech last week, I returned to the Chapel , stopped in the gift shop and
saw a book about Jerome, purchased it and
renewed my commitment to visit it someday.
As I was driving back home, just before I was
about to get on the interstate, all of a sudden,
I saw a sign that read "Jerome City Limits".
"Jerome City Limits?", I thought! I
suspected it was nearby but hadn't noticed it on
the way up there and definitely didn't pass
through it. "How did I get here?" I wondered.
|
| |
|
Obviously I had taken a wrong turn. But my
point in telling you this rambling story is to
underscore the power of intention.
My subconscious received the command to go to
Jerome and while I was driving, perhaps not so
consciously, my hands kept the steering wheel
heading straight when I was supposed to turn
east toward the highway. I drove up this
HUGE hill and when I got to town, I
stopped in a art gallery. I met a
fascinating woman and saw enough of Jerome to
proclaim that I would indeed return when I had
more time to stroll around.
So be careful about the suggestions you give
yourself. You might just end up in there! |

DESIGN YOUR YEAR - REACH YOUR GOALS
A Harvard Business
School study revealed that
83%
of people don't have
identified goals. It further showed that
14%
have goals but don't have them written
down. Only a
mere 3%
of the population has goals that are written
actually written down!
Which group do YOU fall in? |
|
|
|
that same study concluded that the 3% earned
more money that the 83% without goals
..by
a factor of 10 times!!
Which group do you want to be in now?....
Imagine what it would be like to have a road map
to support you (and your team) in accomplishing
your goals.
