ANNA QUINDLEN’S COMMENCEMENT SPEECH

I cannot remember what she wore or how she felt that day. But I can tell you this about her without question: she was perfect. Being perfect was hard work, and the hell of it was, the rules of it changed. At one level it’s too hard, and at another, it’s too cheap and easy. Continue reading

Bag Up Failure and Throw It Away

Darcy Volden Hoag’s post below is very powerful and so true! You cannot punish yourself to success! We can release what’s holding us back any time. An analogy I use with my clients that is similar is of a hot air balloon. The sand bags are the negative things that hold us down from soaring with the eagles!

Bag Up Failure and Throw It Away

-Darcy Volden Hoag  (Secrets of Her Success)

So today… this is a really important post. If not for anyone else but for me. I have made it my life to understand success so that I may pass those teachings on to others. All I want for any of you is to clear whatever it is in the way holding you back from being who you really are… being fully self-expressed and creating the dreams you desire so you can go PLAY!

And…today was a HUGE clearing for me that I wanted to share so that you can apply this in your own life and business.

12 years and 5 days ago a little baby boy named Landen showed up in my life. He became the catalyst for me to start my very first business and ignited my passion for helping women start and grow their businesses.

My very first business, which was an online business, was extremely successful. As a matter of fact it grossed over $80,000 by it’s 2nd year. It was even featured on the former Rosie O’Donnell show and I helped to get members of that business products featured on Oprah even. I was written about in all kinds of books and magazines for my pioneering efforts in helping women and mom entrepreneurs. I felt on top of the world! And I knew without a doubt I was well on my way.
