I was looking at our perception of marketing last time, and I promised you some ideas: here you go!

One proven method to reach the people who are looking for you is to offer some sort of “try before you buy” …

I was talking previously about how you may feel - for all sorts of endless reasons! - that you’re not ready to follow your dream and embark on the life you really want for yourself.

The fact is - as I will show you! That you ARE ready! really and all you have to do is

I can remember, back in the day, when I lived and breathed dog training. ALL the time!

I couldn’t get enough.

I competed at a high level with my dogs, got loads of rosettes, certificates, titles.

I went to every seminar available, I read all the books.

I have a confession to make.

I was interested in training dogs for years.

I competed at a high level with my dogs for years.

I even made up a couple of Champions.

We believe we are limited by the world around us.

We believe that we have been short-changed!

Everyone else seems to have what they need - and we don’t! And you know what? If that’s what you believe, that’s just how you’ll stay.

This week I’ve been talking to a few people who are keen, eager, and ready to start their businesses!

They’ve got an idea they’ve been dreaming about for … ages. They’ve been plotting and planning for … ages.

Practice makes Perfect

BUT in fact that’s a nonsense!

If you’re practising the wrong thing, it will be “Practice makes Imperfect”.

If you’re practising badly, it’ll be “Practice makes Worse”.

It’s all to do with what you’re actually DOING, rather than how much you do it!

We grow up being told what to do.

We take it for granted that our elders and betters are - not only elder, but better!

But now you’re all grown up and you can see how little they actually did know!

Doors are clanging and clattering open all the time.

But so often we miss them, because we’re not expecting them, or we’re looking at the wrong door!

Yep - you’re beautiful!

It’s official.

When you were born, did your parents not think you were beautiful?

What about all those oohs and aahs over the pram?

Finding out what you really want in life can be very hard - especially if you’ve spent your life up to now doing what others wanted, dictated, and chose for you!

So how can you find out for sure what you really want?
