I have been getting emails and requests for the video footage of the spotlight moment. The spotlight moment is because of amazing people like you! You energize me! Thank you! Special Thank You to eWomen Network for an incredible conference and life changing experience!

A friend of mine gave me Loral Langemeier’s book, The Millionaire Maker’s Guide to Creating a Cash Machine for Life, to read a year ago. It has sat on my beside table waiting to be read. Do you have some books like that?

Timing is Everything!

I had the opportunity to meet Loral in Dallas at the eWomen Network conference I attended. Meeting Loral  has motivated me to start reading her book. I could not put it down. She shares down to earth examples of how you can start thinking more like a business owner than an employee and what your revenue model is. Now I understand why this book was not yet read. It was because I was not ready to hear the message. Have you ever wished everything would happen right now? Well, it usually doesn’t; it takes time. They say that when the student is ready the teacher will appear. This was exactly the case. There are many tips I could start instituting right away that will help grow your business and think outside the box. 

Whether you are contemplating starting a business, improving an existing one, or just getting started, this book with help you be aware of the due diligence you should be doing. The opportunities are there, you need to look at your strengths to create your cash machine. It is when you try to go too fast, you begin to fall.

I believe this quote to be true.

“If you have the endurance to persist, the conviction of your vision, and the commitment to your plan, you will eventually reach your goal.” – Loral Langemeier

I just returned from the eWomen Network Conference in Dallas, TX where I won the Spotlight on Stage for One Minute. Let me tell you this was an incredible experience. I will never be the same again.

There were many incredible speakers and business owners that I had the opportunity to meet. Each one was full spirit and intention to get the most out of their experience. I have several pages of notes with stars and notes saying “You need to do this”. That way, I will not forget what ah-ha moments; I had during the presentation, perhaps you do the same.

The 10 highlights from a few of the speakers included:

1. Zig Ziglar – inspired us all. WOW!
2. Lisa Nichols – “The world is more interested in who you are becoming.”
3. Marcia Wieder – “Dreaming without taking action is a fantasy.”
4. Barbara Niven -“Trust that you know your stuff.”
5. Lisa Johnson Mandell – NEVER say “We are thrilled to announce..” in a press release.
6. Tony Hsieh -Your happiness will not last if you sole purpose is profit.
7. Connie Podesta -“You will never have the least competition that you have today.”
8. Mari Smith – “Biggest Financial Disaster – Do not measure your worth in dollars.”
9. Peggy McColl – “Think like your customer.”

10. Lisa Clemons – “Do not allow anyone or anything negative live rent free in your mind!”

These are few of the statements that stuck out in my mind from their talks. Powerful content…transforming content to apply. My mind has shifted gears and I want to connect and follow-up to be the change I want to see in the world. Many people go to conferences and seminars and do not follow up with their contacts. This should be a no “brainer”. This is a prime opportunity for businesses to grow and discover joint venture opportunities.

With the opportunities and speeches, I realized once again that I need to be aiming higher. Higher than ever before in order to achieve bigger. I started view ing the world and thinking differently about the opportunities available. What are you doing to achieve bigger and shine? Are you taking actions and meeting your opportunities?

If you knew your friend needed your help to achieve one of their goals, wouldn’t you want to help them out? Do you think they would do the same for you? Have you told them what you need?

Remember no one can support you or help you achieve what you want if you don’t share!
