You were not created to just survive or endure or get through or simply manage your life. You are meant for something much greater.
You already have everything you need to be enormously successful. The only thing that holds you back is…you. Not your husband or your friends or your location or your kids or your job.
Just you.
A year from now, you could be driving the same car, working the same job, making the same money, living in the same house and nothing has changed.
Or you can take action…right now.
Pick up the phone, book an appointment, call your customers, talk to strangers. Which is truly more frightening – today’s action or next year’s vision of “more of the same?”
So you get to choose.
Will you choose what you want now?
Or what you want most?
But…
the kids’ have soccer practice
company is coming
I just had a baby, got married, moved
the baby is fussy
the tires need to be rotated
I need a better computer
I have a dental appointment
my back hurts
the kids need me
my husband doesn’t approve
the library books are overdue
my office needs to be organized
I have to plan my son’s birthday party
swim lessons start next week
I don’t have enough time, money, energy
There will always be a reason not to work your business.
Work it anyway.
You can choose to give power to your circumstances or you can choose to be successful in spite of them. The choice is truly yours.
Choose well.
Now go have a POWERFUL day!

So true! Thank you and God BLess you.
Off to work I go and sure I will have an awsome day!
You are amazingly gifted with your insight, wisdom, words of encouragement, admonishments, and I could go on and on. I really appreciate your ability to inspire and motivate with ideas and challenges to do what I already know to do. You are so right on…it’s me that gets in my way. Sometimes it takes someone totally objective to tell me that. Thank you and I really appreciate all that you do and share. How do YOU do it?? thank you immensely.
Hi Genia,
Thank you so much for your gracious and positive comments. I’m so glad you’ve found some value in what I write.
For me, well….I have challenging days as well, we all do. I stay plugged in to my power parters and coaches, always spend some time in gratitude, and practice extreme self care (enough sleep, workout, eat well). Oh and laughter – lots of it – highly recommended!
Be bold!
