What In The Heck Can A Personal Coach Do?

 

What In The Heck Can A Personal Coach Do?

I just wanted to spread the word about Life Coaching and what it can do to help just about anyone. Not every coach is suited for every client, but the right coach/client combination is a powerful tool.

I hear different variations of the following questions and statements a lot: "What can a coach do for me?", "I can't afford to pay a coach!", "What does SHE know that I don't know?", "I don't need a stinkin' Coach!" Ok, well, I tossed the word "stinkin'" in there (smile), but I do know there are many people who could benefit from the power of coaching but feel they don't need it.

Well, hopefully, the following can open some eyes to the magic of this beautiful tool!

Coaching is an effective process used to support individuals in creating something new for themselves. I work alongside my clients, coaching them by

Work at Home Common Mistakes

 

Work at Home Common Mistakes

Many people are having great success working from the comfort of their home while others fail miserably. Why is that? I am going to attempt to help everyone understand the reason for this. It has a lot to do with individuals, ego, patience, objectives, and due diligence.

 

What I have seen that appears to be expected in successful people is that they do their research and ensure that they get into a work at home program that meets their goals, skills sets, and comfort level. They also seem to set their ego aside and utilize step-by-step guidance while exercising patience. They realize that they will more than likely make dollars before they make hundreds of dollars and are willing to put in the effort required to reach their goal. Often, they will join 2 – 3 programs, but when they get their goal, they may be down to 1 program.

Work From Home? How Do You Decide?

 

Work From Home? How Do You Decide?

With the advent of information technology and the Internet, work-from-home schemes have been a continuous trend for so many years now, and it seems to be getting better each day.

 

So, here you are trying to get out of the traffic because you are bound to be late for work again. And when you get down to start your work, you will realize that it is time again to pack your things up and start heading for home, which is another traffic you have to get through again.

 

Looks like a pretty bland routine? Think again.

 

No wonder more people are enticed to try working from home. They do not save more money from commuting and driving, but they can work better because they are not too tired to get things done.

Working Freelance: Not For Everyone!

 

Working Freelance: Not For Everyone!

I recently responded to a young woman's thread on another site regarding what it takes to enter the world of freelance writing. The questions she asked were probing, which is good and something that everyone should do if exploring whether to jump into this dynamic field.

Without going through all the five questions again, these were some of my responses to her:

 

• When asked about hours worked per week, I told her I average between 55-70 hours.
• When asked the type of work I am doing now, I responded that I was updating someone's website. Nope, I have other jobs besides writing and have to pay the bills.
• When asked what I like best about freelancing, I mentioned not having a boss to answer to and choosing the projects that appeal to me.

Start earning and get paid

 

Start earning and get paid

Everybody would love to make lots of money quickly, working from home and only doing a few hours of work per week. I’ve spent the past two years trying to find a great way of doing this. Only throughout the past few months have I found any “get rich quick” programs worth buying. I’ve been trying to make money online for a long time. I had a few small websites, but they never made much more than a few hundred per month. It was easy money and didn’t require much work on my part, but I knew there were people out there doing better than I was, and I knew I could do as well as them.

Now, I’ve seen many “get rich quick” programs. Most of these people claim to earn $2000/day with Google or something similarly insane. Almost all of these people are complete liars. Even if they were making $2000/day with Google AdSense, it’d be because they had high-traffic websites with a lot of quality content. I’d know because in one whole month,

Achieve Your Goals For Success Step By Step

 

Achieve Your Goals For Success Step By Step

You have a dream! Now, how do you make it happen?

First, imagine that it is accurate. See every detail so clearly that you can reach out and touch it. You can feel the emotions of being there. For example, if you want a particular car, what kind is it? What color is it? Imagine sitting in it like you will when it is brand new. How does it feel? How does it smell? Go for a drive in your car. If it’s a convertible, drive with the top down! Experience the wind blowing in your face and through your hair. Hear the sounds around you. If you can take a real test drive in one, do that! Get a picture and post it where you will see it each day. Do this visualization several times a day until it becomes part of you. This action is essential because your subconscious will help you reach your goals to achieve your dream.

 

Next, break the big dream down into specific, measurable goals to get you there. If you pursue something that costs a certain amount of money, like a car, you will set a date on when you want to have this money.

5 Great Ways To Start A Super Conversation

5 Great Ways To Start A Super Conversation

 

Starting a conversation is not always easy. Especially when you don't feel comfortable with the people you are conversing with.

 

There could be an eerie feeling of awkwardness at the start of the interaction unless you know the five secrets…

 

Here are five secrets to starting a great conversation with a group of people:

 

1. Get everyone involved.

When starting a conversation, introducing people to each other could be necessary if you don't know each other or some present don't.

 

Then, connect one of your groups to the topic you are talking about by inviting him to contribute. Or you might relate one person to another with their commonalities to encourage dialogue.

Putting Patterns on Porcelain

 

Putting Patterns on Porcelain

Today there are many options for putting colorful patterns onto porcelain china. Some, like decoupage, waterslide decals, and air-dry paints like Delta Air-Dry PermEnamel, are within reach of any home crafter.

 

Others, like dye sublimation printing, transfer printing, and hand-glazing high-fired pottery, require substantial investment in equipment and are best suited to well-capitalized businesses and artists cooperatives.

 

The two traditional ways of putting patterns onto porcelain, hand-painting, and transfer printing, still exist today. In addition, there is a high-tech version of waterslide decals used commercially, which consists of screen-printing decals with glazes and applying the decals to the porcelain. In each case, the pottery is high-fired before decorating to at least cone 6. [Cone is a measure of heat absorption resulting from heat applied over time. Cone 6 translates to between 2165 and 2269 degrees F (depending on how fast the kiln heats or ramps up).] Such high-firing produces the hard almost-translucent

Turn Your Business Cards Into Hardworking Little Salesmen! To market and Sell Your Crafts or Services for Greater Profits.

 

Marketing and promoting your crafts can be just as fun as making them, and it doesn't make any difference how unique and special your handmade treasures are if no one knows you are in business. What is so fun about marketing and promoting your crafts, home-small biz, is that you use the same creativity that you bring to your command when you make your crafts.

 

Most of us home and small biz crafters do not have a blank check, to whatever amount we like advertising budget, so we need to come up with cost-saving ideas. There are many advertising and promotion companies out there competing for your advertising dollars, and some are better than others, and most of them are expensive.

 

Ads that tie up your advertising dollars and may not be in print for a few months or more, or expensive coupon advertising, can deplete your advertising budget with one advertising campaign and not return all that many new leads or customers. If a costly advertising campaign doesn't deliver, you don't get your money back. Following, I have included some:

 

• Quick! Low-Cost Ways to Turn Your Business Cards into Hardworking Little Salesmen!
• Many people in business don't use these to their most significant potential, even though most biz people do have them printed up. Business cards are your hardworking little salesmen, and they are your mini billboards. They work for you 24 hrs a day, without pay!…

 

1. Hand them out! Always have some on hand when you go out, and hand them out! This sounds obvious, and it is, but business cards are often left at home, and they cant be promoting your biz, left at home or in the car.

 

2. Use your biz cards as note cards…If someone needs your home address, and your biz is home biz, hand them your biz card. Or write your home address on the back of your biz card. The same goes for your telephone no, and this gives another person a reason to have your biz card.

 

3. Do a Business Card Exchange! Do a local mailing to businesses that are complementary to your business. For example, if you make candles, send a letter introducing your biz, to local beauty shops with5 or six biz cards included and offer a biz card exchange. You will hand out biz cards for them if they hand out yours.

 

4. Make Your Cards Do Double Duty As Price Tags… Make your biz card into a hanger that you attach to your handmade items or other products, with the price on the back of the card. Use a hole punch to punch a hole in the corner of your biz card, run a piece of string or small satin ribbon through the hole, and attach it to your product.
