My Freak-Out Moment of Skin Cancer, Superheroes, Seminar, Sales Book & Skipping Town
(The picture is of a notebook that Honour Leigh, in the Superhero Program created. Ain’t it cool?) This past Wednesday morning I freaked out for a bit 🙂 Hey, it is relatively rare these days (especially since I began meditation regularly), but it happens once in awhile. I am human… And when I say I…
I’m Feeling Confused & Overwhelmed (Video)
Do you hold other people up on pedestals? Do you think you should always be clear and happy, and feel guilty when you aren’t? Everyone is human, and perfect in their imperfections. I can feel confused. I can be overwhelmed. I get anxious. I feel all the same stuff you do. The fear comes up…but…
Your Key To Success – Or Struggle
If I could share only one thing with you to make the biggest impact on your success, it would be to have you look closely at the people you spend your time with. You are a reflection of them and their attitudes and values – for good, numbness or toxicity – rub off on you!…
Perfectionism – an Enjoyment Enemy
Follow me on Twitter (By the way, the picture is from a PebbleStorm Treasure Map Hike on Sunday in LA…hence the eyepatch!). Below is an excerpt from an email I sent to the PebbleStorm group going through the “Come Play With Us” program. I’m posting it for two reasons: to practice non-perfectionism (is that a…
The current turmoil is a symptom of a larger business shift from “pestering” to “attraction”
Below is an email I recently sent to a group of inspired entrepreneurs in Washington D.C., organized by Klia Bassing of www.VisitYourself.net. I feel this note could help others see a new perspective on what’s going on with these financial and economic earthquakes. As painful as they are now, they’re helping us in an important…
Patience messages on my wall
I have a bunch of reminders up on a wall near where I work. I believe that PATIENCE is a vital part of making money through enjoyment. The “urgency addiction” we’ve all been trained to believe is so important just gets in our way of 1) creating a truly unique, resonant dream business, and 2)…
Using rocks and babysteps to dodge the fear
Here’s one thing that scares me: organizing new events. Yep. You thought I was fearless? Or that other people who start their own companies are fearless? No – they feel fear just like anyone else (even CEOs of the largest companies)…but they don’t let the fear stop them from moving forward. Consider it this way:…
Wow! Last night’s PebbleStorm Open House
Amazing Energy The PebbleStorm LA Open House was last night, and it was phenomenal! (I’m biased, but it’s still true.) We had about 25-30 people and there was just a GREAT energy in the air. I felt a lotta lotta interaction and inspiration. I knew about 2/3 of the attendees personally, and the rest either…
The 3 things that block people from making money through enjoyment
1. Lack of awareness of what they enjoy, their purpose, their unique genius… or that they could even begin envisioning a 5th Work Option. It never occurs to most people (at least until they get fired or have some other serious life change) that until they step back and clearly rethink what their ideal working…
Fear is natural; Just get started (and – Oprah)
Letting Go Of Fear One of the most natural fears we go through in nurturing a passion or new business is “will people accept it?” “What will they think?” We hold back talking about it…which only holds the business back. What we find is that the people who are our real friends will be accepting…
