Can you relate to the feeling of perceived failure? The sinking in your stomach that makes giving up feel borderline comfortable and safe. But giving up is NEVER comfortable or safe, and failing is not the end of the story – it’s just the beginning.

There’s a story about a man many years ago who got caught up in what they call “gold rush.”  He had packed up and moved to the West, determined to dig his way to wealth. He staked a claim, and with high expectations, he went to work with nothing but a pick and shovel in quest of a rich future.

Two different women, living on two opposite coasts, in two distinctly different industries, have both told me,“times are tough out here.” They believe that where they live is impacting their businesses growth.

These two statements got me thinking about my own business. In 2015, we moved to rural Nova Scotia, I spent almost 6 weeks out of commission for health reasons and managed to grow the business by over $110,000. That’s a 22% increase, living in a brand new place, with a 10% reduction in time.

Watching the Olympics is always inspiring.

There’s something that gets me really fired up when I watch these incredible athletes from around the world compete for their countries. It’s the spirit, the drive and the dedication to their career that amazes me.

The accomplishments they achieve are truly great. What does that say about human spirit? Stop and realize what we are capable of when fully committed to one goal. When we as humans decide that we really want something in life, we are capable of extraordinary things.

Are You Ready For Opportunity?

By Lisa In Blog, Coaching, Entrepreneur, Marketing /   2 Comments

Are you really ready for opportunity when it hits?

Stop for a moment and imagine that you do something remarkable and all of a sudden millions of people know who you are.  This happened to someone I know recently and sadly, they were not ready.  They reached out and shared something with me that had thrown their name, and their business suddenly and unexpectedly in front of tens of millions of people.
