Hysteria, it’s not funny on HRT or How do you change a life?

5 Jan

At the beginning of 2011 I started my journal for the year with a question to myself which I’ve asked many times over the years previously but this time thought that it warranted a little more effort and thought to answer than I had previously applied.

The question was ‘how do you change a life?’  As the year progressed and I worked my way through 2011 and my journal I discovered three insights that have helped me to understand the question and it’s possible answer a little more. Before I share the answer with you though I thought I’d share a little story.

The achievements that matter in life

29 Jul

When you are paid a compliment, no matter what it is or from whom you receive it, it makes you feel great.  You get a lovely warm glow inside that makes you go ‘ahhhhhhh’.  Even if you are one of those who find it difficult to accept, you still feel a million dollars and as if all the world is paying attention to just you.  Well I’ve been paid the most amazing compliment by a whole bunch of people who really matter to me.  The ladies of the Hysterectomy Association, who are the stalwarts of our forum and the Hysterectomy Association Facebook page have said publicly that they like me and it not only gives me that glow, it also makes me cry – quite a lot actually!

Changing the world 1 book at a time

24 Nov

Is it possible to change the world just one book at a time?  I honestly believe so, which is why I launched a challenge to myself that started yesterday to sell 200,000 copies of my e-Book, LinkedIn Made Easy, in just 30 days – I’m on day 29 already, so the clock is ticking ….. fast!

Why would I set myself such challenge you might ask?  In fact I do too on occasions, but in short it’s because I want to PROVE SOCIAL NETWORKING DOES WORK FOR BUSINESS – do you think I’ve shouted loud enough there? (more…)

Catching up with work avoidance

29 Jun

I’ve just discovered the secret to staying focussed ….! Yes, really I have!  Yesterday, I spent some time working where I had no internet access at all and as a result didn’t have that really useful facility of “I’ll just go online to see what’s going on” or “I think I’ll just check my email”.  You know the sorts of things we often use as a distraction technique when we what we are doing is avoiding the things we know we actually should be doing … a little like I am now!

Anyway, I now have a working business plan and a cashflow forecast completed – with extensive use of all the excel buttons and tricks to ensure that I can automate as much of it as possible.  So, now all I have to do is to actually enable the brand new shopping cart for The Hysterectomy Association that has been waiting in the wings for the last week or so.   Once that’s done, I’ll be able to stop worrying about the other one, which has been causing my customers so many problems recently.
