Obstacle or Opportunity? You Decide…

149

Throughout life there are always obstacles which come up and can cause us to lose sight of our goals.  Whether it’s simply a piece of chocolate cake when we are on a diet or a failed networking situation when we are trying to grow a business; obstacles are always there.  But how you choose to view those obstacles are up to you. When you are given the opportunity to face a challenge, it’s important to keep in mind that although you can’t always control the situation, circumstances or the outcome, the one thing you can control is how you perceive

How Are You Going To Move Forward?

There are all kinds of inspirational quotes out there on moving forward!  One of my favorites is by Oliver Wendell Holmes, it goes something like this “The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.”  So my question is what are you doing to move forward?   As I look back in my life I realize that the times I was standing still were the times where not much was happening.  Now I’m not talking about moving forward just to move forward but I’m talking about moving forward with a

Relationships Matter!

I’m observing some very disturbing trends lately in the Social Media platforms that worry me.  There is a huge amount of people spending way too much time online. Permit me to share some of my thoughts on Social Media and building relationships. My first thought is developing relationships with live people, face to face really matters.  Now this is kind of ironic coming from a business coach that specializes in Social Media Marketing.  I happen to be online, plugged in a lot.  So I’m really preaching to the choir here because in my business I spend a lot of time

Boxes (That was then, this is now) Revisited 2013

Last year around this time, a friend and I were discussing some boxes we still have over our parent’s houses.  Well she took one home over her Christmas holiday.   She told me as she was browsing through it she couldn’t believe some of the stuff she saved.  It got me thinking about how cool this was that as she went through this box.  Also that she is not the same person that she was back then.  Transformation has happened!  I’m wondering if you went through some of the boxes that you have saved what would you find?   Would you find

Procrastination, I’m doing it Again!

“You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.What mood is that?  Last-minute panic.” – Bill Watterson I have a confession to make the last two weeks I’ve been procrastinating.  The major culprit was that I was filling my schedule with very low priority tasks.  The other culprit was that I left that one task that I needed to do for the next day and then the next day.  You get my point.  Lastly I said Yes to many unimportant tasks.  Now I’m faced with an urgent deadline and getting it done.

Chaos Happens!

I’m not sure when I realized this but I did and now I have to write about it.  Have you ever noticed that when things in your business are running smoothly that all of a sudden chaos happens?  What is chaos?  How do you pull it together during these times of chaos?  How do you find the calm amidst chaos?  Where does chaos come from? Chaos is one of those funny words because it has different meanings to the individual.  The definition of chaos is complete disorder and confusion, behavior so unpredictable as to appear random, owing to great sensitivity

“Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, its always your choice”…Wayne Dyer. Have you ever landed in a new city and started out to find your way?  Maybe you have a map that shows where you are and where you want to go…a beginning point and an end point.  Now you have to decide which way to go to get there.  You have to choose the best path to your destination. Well, it’s the same when think you don’t know the way to get to your goals for your business, or even your life.  As I sit

Implementing Through The Overwhelm! (Things I Am Learning Now!)

There is this quote I like by Edward Everett Hale that  goes like this; “I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do.” The number one problem for me as a business owner is that I sometimes look at all the things I have to do and I don’t do anything. Lately I confess

The “Why”

In business it is so important to know why you do what you do.  I think if you know why it’s half of the battle of succeeding in business. If you are not very clear on your “why”, you have a good chance of failing.  Being clear about why you are in business and having a compelling story can be a foundation for your success.  For me, I found, it keeps me moving forward. My “why” is pretty simple, I do Footpath Coaching to help entrepreneurs and small business owners succeed in their businesses by utilizing Social Media Managing and Marketing.   Nothing makes
