I Know Why She's Single

1/5/2017

Do you have social media friends that you follow simply because you love the foolishness they post? I have one who's particularly entertaining. She posts the craziest commentary and I often read the posts, and whincing, say, "That's why she's still single."

Here are three no-no's that frequent her commentary that repel men of quality from her life:

Constantly listing the types of men to shun. No one wants to know your dislikes before your likes. When getting to know someone, they ask what you like, love and are passionate about, not what you dislike. Those things are learned over time through observing reactions.
95% of posts are self-focused. Men don't actually enjoy self-centered people in close-intimate relationships. They are drawn to women who make them the apple of their eye. This doesn't mean women should lie down and be dogs. What it means is men require attention because out in the world they're usually just one of many.
Pride in a lengthy list of must-haves. Marriage-minded men have enough on their plates considering if they can afford a wife, family and all necessities, not to mention the emotional stuff. So when they're confronted with a list of what's required to even be considered by some women before approaching them, they often just forget it and gravitate toward someone less demanding.

If you think you may be repelling the quality of man you want in your life because of your words, I can help. I've turned things around for myself and for many other women as well. Book a Communication Superstar Session or schedule a call so you can attract what you truly desire in a man.

It's 2017 ... time to do what's necessary to get the relationship you want.

WA Business Week 11/28-12/2/2016

12/8/2016

Pasco School District's 17th Enterprise Week 2016
TRAC
Pasco, WA

I designated the last two months of 2016 for volunteer work and to serve others. In November I gave my time and expertise to two clients in the form of daily mentoring sessions. Each were facing difficult situations and indicated their lives depended on taking authority, responsibility and doing whatever was necessary to make changes so they could get out of negative cycles once and for all.

I specialize in desperate situations and enjoy walking others out of them and into abundance. If you ever find yourself in what is a seemingly impossible circumstance, consider booking a session or at least schedule a call. You don't have to accept anything as "just a part of life," or "your lot." I facilitate change in lives and lots regularly.

Unless, of course, you want to just deal. I used to have that mindset, but I've decided I don't want to just deal ... I want to overcome and evelate consistently. You can, too. You can overcome anything - sickness, death, divorce, financial crisis, you name it. And I have supernatural strategies to help.

Last year - my first as a Company Advisor - my student employees won in two categories. This year's seniors won in 4!!! I'm so proud of them. Their elected CEO wasn't as capable as was implied, so everyone else stepped up, put in extra work and they prospered. I was thinking about how often that happens in business. The Theranos issue comes to mind immediately. And, Yahoo, too.

Also, this year's group of kids were much kinder and compliant. Which was wonderful. All 1,000 of them, not just my group. In 2015 there were physical fights, arguments, disrespect of adults and each other was rampant. I enjoyed Enterprise Week 2016 even more than the first time around.

I've already received an email from one of the students, Michelle, requesting a Letter of Recommendation. She thanked me for an amazing experience and said she couldn't have had a better CA than me! That's pretty good feedback. Another student, Alex, asked me to sign his award certificates; he wanted it known who his CA was. That's big honor.

And once again I was highlighted before the school district and others in the community. One CA came up and shared that he'd been volunteering for six years but had never won with his student employees, and he acknowledged my efforts. Well ... the student employees do the work, I just give advice, information and resources. Enjoy the slideshow.

Deadline

9/8/2016

I'm serious about my goals. So serious that I have three success goals that I've set a deadline to achieve.

This note that you see above is on my focus board. I see it every day and I've even begun sharing with others that these things need to be done by that time. I'm sharing because speaking it out and hearing it solidifies it in my brain, and also because I'm excited about it. We always share what we're passionate about ... it's human nature and it's a good thing.

Sharing also keeps me (us) accountable because those I share with will ask how I'm doing with my goals and I'll have to tell them, I'm on track for success or that I'm falling short. I do not like to fall short.

What are you doing to document and track your goals, and to keep yourself accountable? If you have a system in place, it's a lot easier to hit your target. I'm a witness.

If I can be of assistance to you as you work to break through the place of transition to give birth to a new season in your life, relationships or finances I'm available. Schedule a call or book a package and we'll get you on the road to that next level of success you've been wanting to reach.

Birthday Run

8/4/2016

I didn't do much work during my birthday week, but I did make sure I kept pushing toward my goal of running 1000k (just over 621 miles) for the 2016 running season. This was my first run as a 40 year old and one of my last runs leading up to my 20th anniversary as a runner which is in September.

I bought myself some new running gear to celebrate this milestone and I was excited to use it. I'm not much of a clothes shopper because I don't like trying things on. I'm also very casual so jeans, sweats and t-shirts make me happy. I just like to be comfortable; running gear is usually comforable. I'd been using an armband to carry my Android while I ran, but it rubbed my underarm and left this ugly, dark bruise so I was very excited to get a code for a free LED running belt from Level Up Runs.

I run at night, lately really late because it's so hot, and I'm glad to have this belt to keep me visible. My kiddo even likes it so much he asked if he can have it. Normally I'd give it to him, no big deal, but because he doesn't use it as much as I truly need it, I offered to share. But, the cool thing is that Level up gave me an ambassador's code for 50% OFF: RCE5FGY8 so I can get another the next time I order from Amazon. I always put things in my cart and then when I get to the amount needed for free shipping, I check out.

I'm very excited and blessed to be 40. I know some people don't enjoy growing older but because I've grown, and am continually growing, wiser I look forward to every milestone. I must admit I began adulthood completely immature and I'm thankful to God that I'm alive, not maimed and not in jail. That might give you an idea of how far I've come and why I believe that anyone's life can be turned into something extraordinary if they truly desire it and are willing to take action.

If you're not living the life of your dreams, I can help. I have a 3-step process (A.C.T. - Assess, Construct, Track) that has led to countless success stories of breakthrough into next levels. I say all the time, there are too many success stories in the world for you not be included in history as one who overcame.

Schedule a call or book a package today, and begin to live the life you dream of tomorrow.

The 3rd Annual Grow Your Dreams Conference

4/28/2016

This was my second year speaking at this annual conference. It's always exciting. And to think that if I hadn't been pushed out of my nest (comfort zone) by my mentor in 2012, this might never have happened.

April 8-10, 2016
Virginia Beach, VA

Testimonial March 2016

3/17/2016

There's nothing better than reading in someone's own words how you impacted their life.

Today I'm sharing a recent testimonial I received from a client. Remember: we can take someone else's testimony and use it to construct a vision of what's also possible for us in the future. If it can happen for one, it can happen for us all.

If you're ready to start living the life of your dreams, schedule a call or book a package today.

Six Months from Adulthood

1/25/2016

As parents we have a responsibility to prepare our teens for life as adults. It's not easy, but it must and can be done.

Quick & Easy Baked Ziti

11/19/2015

My kiddo (13.9 years old) loves pasta dishes so I taught him how to make this no-recipe quick and easy baked ziti. It's so simple, and fairly inexpensive, so he can feed himself, and impress friends, for years to come.

I boiled organic penne to our liking, drained, rinsed, added some evoo, salt and put it in a baking dish.
I browned organic grass-fed ground beef then added tomato sauce and spices - again to our liking. I put the sauce on top of the pasta and covered with shredded mozzarella.
I baked at 350 until the cheese was melted and served with salad and garlic bread.

Of course you can add or subtract anything you like to any steps if you decide to teach this to a beginning cook. I'm sharing this because as a teacher and mentor I always recommend putting systems in place where possible to simplify life. When you master an area, it operates smoothly and you can focus on other things.

If you need help simplifying or mastering a portion of your life I can help. Don't put it off any longer. Schedule a call or book a package right now.

Selling Words

11/12/2015

We all have a warehouse of knowledge stored atop our shoulders. I know I sure do and I'm always filling it with more because I love to read, learn and grow. Some of the ways I get to share what I know is writing posts for this and my other blogs, speaking, teaching courses, mentoring and recording videos.

Another of my outlets for training others and sharing my wisdom is the Supernatural Success Mentee portal. I get to compose posts that are aimed toward success, business, breakthrough, deliverance and faith. Faith is important because it's a supernatural force that makes all things possible.

The Supernatural Success Mentee portal is a a wonderful option for anyone who wants focused mentoring but may not be able to afford a package at this time. It's also great for self-starters who need a little more than what's available for free.

Here's a snippet of a recent post:
"So many people need miracles. They need them in their personal lives, businesses, at school and in their careers. I know I do. Well, our brains can be trained to believe for and expect miracles, and it's very simple to do. Simple ... but not easy."

And another:
"Note words you use that get the most sales attention. Getting noticed is a great start, but conversion is always the end goal."

If you're ready to step up your success, join the portal today. If you need even more than that - you need someone to hold you accountable to your goals or to facilitate deliverance because you're stuck - book a package. This year is almost over, it would be foolish to continue spinning your wheels and not reach a new level.
