Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone!

“I’m scared to death!”  Have you ever felt that way as you grow your business? I know that many of you look at the ‘successful’ entrepreneurs and tell yourselves that it’s easy for ‘them’.Are you kidding me?  I do hear that a lot when people learn that I’ve taken my business from sub-zero to multiple 6 figures in less than 4 years – but easy? NO! It’s downright scary most of the time. I have come to like feeling scared because it means I am having a growth spurt.The good news is that I have…See More

Make Something Happen!

“Nothing is happening!”  I have been hearing this from so many entrepreneurs, from all parts of the country. My response right back is ‘What are YOU making happen?”Success isn’t a magic pill. There is no magic wand.  It is hard work, a daily effort, a full time job!Here’s what I think is happening for many of you. Keep reading and see what applies to you.1) Social Media. I keep hearing many of you say that you don’t want to get involved with social media. You’re stuck on what you heard about…See More

Fear vs Panic!

I trust that all of you have had the opportunity to read the phenomenal book “Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway!” by Susan Jeffers.  If not, then you need to get your hands on a copy today. It will become a live-saving reference as you grow your business.All of us have experienced fear at some point in our lives.  What is interesting to me is the way we often confuse fear with the feelings of panic. They are very different.Recently, I saw the movie “Chasing Maverick” starring Gerard Butler. I had…See More

Mistakes Women Business Owners Make!

Ladies, stop comparing the inside of you to the outside of someone else! Seriously! This was one of the best pieces of advice I ever received from my mentor and coach, Lou Tice, many years ago. Stop it!I am convinced that there would be many more millionaire women business owners if they would all stop and recognize some of the stupid mistakes they are making. And how do I know this? Because I’ve made them all myself!Over the past few weeks, I have had many heart-breaking conversations with…See More

Are You Stuck?

Feeling a little ‘blah’ these days? Stuck behind your computer, not sure what to do next? This seems to be the time of year when people are feeling a little down – or stuck – or have some ‘paralysis analysis’. Is that you?I believe that businesses have cycles, just like people do.  And, as a result, things aren’t always UP and FABULOUS and AWESOME. They just aren’t. That’s ok – but what do we do about it and how do we get past it? Those are the real questions. It’s ok to feel stuck but it’s not…See More

When Preparation Meets Opportunity!

How often have you attended an event and found that you were totally overwhelmed and under-prepared? I see it happen all the time and it makes my heart sink because, seriously, those are missed opportunities that you will never get back.There are many large, and valuable, events scheduled around North America (and the world, for that matter) that are a gold-mine of opportunity when it comes to learning and networking. Attending these events is one of the best ways to grow your business and…See More

Get Clear On Your Point Of View!

When you tell people what it is you ‘do’ in your business, do they understand anything you’re saying? Do YOU even know how to clearly articulate the message?“All meaningful and lasting change starts with you and then works its’ way out’ is a great quote from my mentor, Lou Tice. It is no different when it comes to getting the word out about the work you do and the transformation you create.It all starts with your Point of View. One of the exercises I did recently was to write down my opinion…See More

Action And Accountability!

‘Without a vision, they will perish!” – So True. But without ACTION, the vision will stagnate (or, worse yet, frustrate the heck out of you!).  While many of you are spending the time and energy creating great Vision Boards for 2013, without following through on the next 2 critical steps: Action and Accountability – the likelihood of achieving your goals is minimal.So, I want to keep this simple this week.  Here’s what I recommend you do:Complete your vision board. (I know many women start a…See More

Business Lessons From My Favourite TV Shows!

What is the #1 question asked weekly by ‘Mr. Wonderful” – Kevin O’Leary?Who really chooses the winners of the Mirror Ball on Dancing with the Stars? I do watch TV on a regular basis and I’m not ashamed to admit it. These days, it seems like it’s a bad thing to watch TV – but that all depends on WHAT you are watching and why.It’s a weekly ritual for me to watch ‘Mr. Wonderful”, Kevin O’Leary, both on (Canada’s) Dragons’ Den and on (U.S.) Shark Tank. What I have learned from the dragons and the…See More

"Pat, You're correct! But, it takes a lot of courage to walk away from a W-2 ;-) "

"Lorie, Thanks so much for your comment. Yes, it is hard to grow a business - but, compared to being in a J.O.B. where you are miserable and not appreciated, having a business is H.E.A.V.E.N. - right?"

"Hi Pat, I'm in my own business and I agree with you. It's very difficult. Anyone who thinks it's easy is not going to make it. "

It Takes Persistence!

Did you ever think it would be a ‘cake-walk’ to have your own business?  I ask the question because many people think this way! “I’ll just start my own business, enjoy what I do, make money and…………retire rich and happy”.Well, back up the truck! While, on the surface, it may seem easy and fun to have your own business (and there ARE many times when it IS easy and fun), it is a lot of hard work – it takes certain qualities and characteristics to pull it off in the long run.“The biggest adventure…See More

A Mother’s Approach To Business!

A quick nod of heads – how many of you are working Moms? How many of you feel overwhelmed, unsupported, misunderstood, exhausted and discouraged? And, simultaneously, as you work in your own business, how many of you feel elated, passionate, ‘on purpose’, celebrated, validated and rich?I want to salute you! I really do! In North America, on the second Sunday of May, we celebrate Moms.I want to share some of the lessons I have learned from my own Mom – and lessons that, as an entrepreneurial…See More
