I was blown away when I saw how many of you posted a comment on my question of, “If you were to gain access to ALL of the marketing and business building knowledge, information, support, accountability and personal attention you need, what ONE amazing thing would you want to accomplish, right now, with your business?”
A lot of you are REALLY clear about what you want, which is fantastic. I noticed that most of you were very specific about what you want to accomplish - the project, specific numbers of new members on your list, whatever it was.

Creative entrepreneurs like you and I often have the problem of TOO many ideas buzzing around our brain. So how do you know which ones to act on and which ones are just distractions?
Here’s a tip on a simple system I use to decide which ideas will pay off:
First, grab a few sticky notes or index cards and write down each idea on its own note/card.

No one wants to hear about someone else feeling icky so I’ll spare you the details of my last week’s bout with the stomach flu (let’s just say I’m not a few pounds lighter and VERY happy to be back to work on my business!).
But, I DO want to share a revelation I had while lying on the couch recovering.
The revelation is that despite having four virtual assistants, my husband, my mom and my brother working with me in my business, I am STILL doing too much of the stuff I shouldn’t be.

Can you believe that the pretty lady on the left is 65 years old…AND my mom?! (And no, she DOESN’T color her hair! Yeesh, I have more gray than she does!).
Today is my mom, Kailash’s, birthday. This pic was taken just last week, with her dear friend (and amazing body healer that I go to every week) Harini.

Want to get the name and website of your woman small business in front of thousands of potential clients AND honor the gift of gratitude? Easy…give enthusiastic, honest, “results-based” testimonials.
At first, I had no idea this strategy could be as powerful as it is. It wasn’t until I started hearing how new clients enrolled in my success coaching programs “found me” via testimonials I had on other woman small business owners’ websites that I realized the potential testimonials have to create new leads.

The theme of last weekend’s SOLD OUT Brand Authenticity workshop was “The more you show up, the more you make!”
Which meant of course, that I had to be a model for what I was talking about. It wasn’t hard but at moments, it did feel a bit risky.

If you’re a creative woman entrepreneur then chances are good you’ve labeled yourself as someone who just can’t seem to get, or stay, organized. Popping up with new ideas for your business or about how to help people? Easy! Figuring out a filing system or how to get those piles of paper up off your floor? Ugh…well, that’s a different story now, isn’t it?!
What organized people don’t understand about creative souls is that the thought of being organized seems to be in conflict with our creative spirit.
Accurate or not, creative types feel that if everything is neat and tidy then their creativity will be contained as well.

Every year I create a “theme” for my success coaching business. I call it my “dream theme.” Your dream theme keeps you on track, keeps you from getting distracted, and fuels your dream, propelling you effortlessly forward.
Last year my dream theme was “alignment.” Every decision I made was measured against whether it was really, truly, 100% in alignment with my Unique Brilliance brand. If it wasn’t, then I stopped, made the necessary adjustments, or made a different decision.
The results weren’t just good, they were pretty spectacular! I’m making lots more money as a success coach and working even less, plus I’m enjoying a really peaceful lifestyle.

Ever wonder why someone as wealthy as Oprah cares about getting that special “free gift with purchase” offer at the department store makeup counter? You know, the one that includes the bright coral lipstick that doesn’t look good on anyone!
Because getting something for free feels good and smart business owners know that ALL buying decisions are based on emotion (with logic backing up the decision so it makes sense to the left side of our brain).

Want to know what I DON’T do in my business so that I can focus on making a high 6-figure income?
For starters, I don’t answer emails sent in from my site. I don’t update my website myself anymore (this one was hard for me to give up because I love fiddling with my site!). I don’t pay bills, run to get the mail, do my own scheduling or do my bookkeeping.
