Entrepreneurship is the Fountain of Youth
Entrepreneurship is the Fountain of Youth…I totally believe it. Why? Well it has to do with being able to constantly be dreaming. You see as someone with an entrepreneur mindset, you are always thinking of the next big ideas. That next business to build, that product or service to create. You think about creating something from absolutely nothing. No dream is too small or too big in your mind. An entrepreneur is always being driven by a dream. Here’s the problem for most folks out there. They stopped dreaming about anything when they were children. Maybe they held on until they were in high school. But by the time mid…

Let Go Of Being Right
Let Go Of Being Right….. and just continue sharing what it is you have to offer the world! Why? Because someone needs your insight, ideas, and knowledge…..despite having those around you not believing in you. We are continuously tested. Our dreams of reaching for something greater is challenged by those who haven’t taken the time to dive into that which drives you. Recently I was able to tell someone….”See, you are being told now the exact things I’ve been telling you for years”….but in this case, I wish I was wrong because what I was sharing was not valued. Now a life is dependent upon it! If I told you…

Pen In Hand
In this episode, you will find I had a tough time recording this episode! My mind was all over the place….. I jumped from sharing how to quit “Fearing Your Voice”……. How we are afraid to say what we actually think, such as: I believe in God! I hate my job! You upset me! And whatever else that strikes a chord with whatever keeps you from speaking up. Then, I tried recording an episode about taking the pen from whoever is holding it….. And to “Write Your Own Story”! There are days in which we are off cue, such as I was in this episode…… But because of this, I…

Participation Awards
Participation Awards….. Hmmmm…..the magical question on whether or not our kids are deserving of a trophy or ribbon…..just for participating! Well, I won’t dance around this one! I’ve coached my daughter in softball for 5 years…..junior high volleyball for a season…..and assistant for junior high basketball. And my son, well I’ve coached him in baseball for 4 years, and now in travel ball…..basketball for a season….and soccer for a season. Back in the day, many of us growing up didn’t receive awards for “participating” Personally, as each season begins, I share with the parents that I will not participate in getting the kids trophies or plaques for playing the game.…

New Entrepreneur: Little Things Are Everything
New Entrepreneur…little things are everything! So this morning I woke up at 7:30 a.m. And you might be thinking..so what? At 9:10 pm I went for a walk at Kiwanis Park in Tempe, AZ for about 30 minutes to enjoy the overcast weather and stretch the legs a bit and think on how grateful I am. And you might be thinking…so what? Then a wonderful friend and fellow entrepreneur warrior all the way from The Netherlands messaged me for some help with something. I said hey do you want to jump on a Skype call for a bit..I’m available. And you might be thinking…so what? Then I ran to the…

Happy New Years
A Brand New Year Is Upon Us….. Happy New Years!! You can wrap up the year 2015 in a bow…..the good, and the bad! But the main question is will you be able to take all that had been part of your life in this past year……and taken the lessons of it all, to create a memorable 2016. January is the honeymoon…. It is the fresh start, or the new beginning…. It is the do-over that many of us at times wish for. But in all reality, will this year be any different in the aspects of which you have control? I’ve been there many times, and yes, it’s a…

Will Your Visions of 2016 Bring You Home?
Will your visions of 2016 bring you home? That is the topic I chose to share on this Monday afternoon for you all. As some of you know, I am back in my hometown of Fortuna, ND. I’ve been spending time with my parents, my grandma and just overall relaxing and recharging the batteries. (Slept in until 10:21 am the first morning! lol) The pic below is the house I grew up in. So as I’ve been reflecting and looking back on being home this week, it brought up some interesting perspectives on the “home” within us all. The one that maybe our life path has taken us far, far…

Through The Glass
Through The Glass…. There are times when we feel we are always on the sideline…. We want to get into the game We want it all We can see it…. Taste It… Hear It…. Feel It…. But the truth is, not all of us are blessed with the gifts to have the potential to ‘be in the game’ What is it worth to you to get into the game? Are you willing to do what others are not willing to do….get up early; stay late; run one more mile; do one more push-up; to listen, rather than speak; to let go of ego; to admit you are not ‘all-knowing’??? These…

Steve Harvey, New Year and Being Sick and Tired
Steve Harvey was sick and tired of himself. He was exhausted. He was worn down. He was worn out by poverty. He was just plain sick and tired of it all. And like the picture below states, “it’s a kind of TIRED that sleep can’t fix.” As the New Year approaches, many times these same feelings can overwhelm us. We feel like we didn’t accomplish what we set out to do in 2015. We let ourselves down, we let others down. We feel exhausted by all our efforts. We wonder…How can I WIN in 2016? Well listen in to this episode of The Mindset Mountain Podcast as I share a…
