Home Grown Economy; One Small Business at a Time

Home Grown Economy; One Small Business at a Time


What is your mindset about your small business today? I’ll bet you dollars to doughnuts that whatever your mindset is about money overall is the exact mindset you have about your own business. Whatever that mindset may be it will also be exactly how you view and experience our present economy.

Most people view and experience our present economy from a place of fear and uncertainty. Understandably so given the unending rhetoric of the media talking heads that carry on about doom & gloom 24 hours a day with the enthusiasm of a school of piranhas over a fresh kill!

Three Keys to Achieve Greater Happiness in 2011

If 2010 was the year which left us feeling down and out, 2011 is the year to learn how to achieve greater happiness in a life that we love.

In a recent Dr Oz show, the “Intensati Workout” was featured.  The exercise trainer wore a t-shirt which said, “Live A Life You Love” as she demonstrated how to sculpt your body while strengthening your self esteem (http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/intensati-workout).

Oprah’s new OWN network has taken on the mission to provide positive programming which helps its viewers achieve their best life.   The network’s programming includes Cristina Ferrare’s Big Bowl of Love where Cristina Ferrare lovingly prepares soul food, Miracle Detectives, where the network embarks on a mission to find substantiated miracles, and Oprah Presents Master Class where people who have reached the top of their professions detail their journeys, inspirations, and happiness.

And my own mission at The Next Highest Version of You and Your Business continues to be assisting people with their soulful purpose so that they can build a life that they love and create happiness based on the expression of their gifts and talents.

Ever Heard of the Push-me-Pull-you?

`

The Push-me – Pull-you is a character from the 1967 film “Dr. Dolittle”. I was enthralled with the animal that had a front end of a llama on both ends of its body!

Is Your Business a Jalopy or a Jaguar?

Is Your Business a Jalopy or a Jaguar?

`

If you could define your business as a vehicle what do you think would be the most accurate description?

What kind of condition is the body in? Are there a few dents and scrapes? Has the paint faded or chipped? Any rusty patches underneath? Do you like the color and did you choose it for yourself or did it just happen to be available?

The last event I attended I noticed so many beautiful soul-o-preneurs begin to shake with apprehension at the magnitude of what was before them with regards to creating a “successful” business.
