Responsibility

I knew it was going to take a lot to run a business. I knew I was going to have to be responsible for more things than you need to be when you work for a company. But some days it seems to be more than I can do. What drives you crazy about your business??

I was just doing taxes and I see all the things I need to keep track of so that I get enough deductions next year. Every receipt on the planet.

These last couple of weeks I have been dealing with so many structures and so many things to have my business thrive. Constant Contact, Mint.com, Facebook, Twitter, my new eBook and of course my blog. Now I have to keep track of invoices and all of our expenses. All of this is very exciting and it makes me crazy.

What don't you want to be responsible for in your business? Where are you frozen because you do not know where to start?

What works for me is talking it out, getting in communication with the people that listen to me powerfully. Then of course getting into action and doing what needs to be done. Every time I get something complete I get more power more freedom and more creativity.

Do You Think Things Are Handled?

I do not know about you but getting a business going either from the beginning or from a plateau can be extremely frustrating.

The one thing that almost all business owners forget is that even though things start moving that does not mean that anything is handled. You need to keep following up, networking and creating new business. I personally hate that part of the business, but recently I created a new way to look at it. When I am "Following up", "Networking" and "Creating new business" I am fulfilling my future and my dreams and giving Max what he needs to have the best foundation for his future. This motivates me this gets me moving. It even has me write this blog. Every time I come up against something I picture Max and his future.

I invite you to find something that inspires you, something that wakes you up in the morning. Have that inspiration support you in pushing through the things you hate so that you can fulfill on what you are up to.



This is Max inspired and ready to go. What gets you going like that?

Why Accountability ?

If you ask me this question my immediate reaction is "UGH". I never WANT to be held accountable. I wish I could wave a magic wand and do all the things I say I am going to do, all the things that I intend to do and all the things others want me to do, but left to my own devices I will only do maybe half or 3/4 of these things. It really all depends on what I feel like doing, not what I said I would do.

So what do I do to impact this? I hired a personal trainer. I have a Business Coach. I even have a coach that is supporting me in writing my first book. Definitely something I would never do if left to my own devices.

Having these people available to me and cheering me on actually has me produce results that I am proud of and excited about. After working with my trainer I am actually contemplating running a 10K run in a year. That was never even a thought 2 months ago.

Accountability gives me freedom, power and the ability to create.

What do you think? Do you run from accountability? Do you love it? What does it provide for you?

Becoming a Business Owner

For the last 5 weeks I have been taking a lot of actions towards my business. The first thing I did was register my business with sunbiz.org so Success for Hire is now a reality! I was then able to open a business checking account and get checks. That was a powerful experience. Next I went on my first business trip! I went to Tampa and worked with a company that has 8 staff members. We had a blast and created great goals for the year.

The biggest thing for me was how I interacted with what I did and what I "called" myself. I have been interacting with myself as a person that provides a service. Someone that supports people to be more effective and productive in their business and I get paid for it. Well now I interact with myself as a "business owner". I own a business that provides a service that people pay for. This has been very empowering and fun. I am now more confident and powerful in all of my day to day activities. I am now more focused and effective at what I do.

I have even created benefits of working with me.

1- I am a affordable structure for growing your business.
2- I am a sounding board to help you articulate your dreams and goals.
3- I provide a way to plan that gives you peace of mind.
4- I am a cheerleader who keeps you in action through the ups and downs.
5- I hold your feet to the fire when you " don't wanna"
6- I love my clients

Creating this business has been and still is one of the most challenging things I have ever done besides being a Mom. I am so excited to be on this adventure. I am no longer scared or in survival about running my own business.

How can I help you have that kind of power with what you are up to?
