Playing in the snow…

Chloe and I finally got a chance to play in the snow for a bit, and even though she had a bit of a tough time managing in the snowsuit when trying to build a snowman, she seemed to really love sledding down the little hill in our backyard… 🙂

Happy 2007!

"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right."
— Oprah Winfrey

At the moment, I am completely surrounded with paper and pens and planners and calendars as I map out 2007 for my business – and my life. After taking stock of last year’s progress and successes, I’m even more inspired and excited about what’s to come over the next 12 months.

Many things I did worked very well, but I wasn’t as good at duplicating or increasing what was working to create even greater success. That’s part of my overall plan for 2007, and this "year in review" process is enabling me to see that very clearly.

So, what are you going to do differently this year than last to increase your own successes?

Christmas 2006

Familyxmasphoto2sm What a wonderful holiday we had… 🙂 Santa was very generous (as was a certain elf who brought me a gorgeous diamond bracelet). Here are a few of my favorite photos of the day, from the stockings to tossing the magic reindeer feed off the back deck (we do have lots of deer in the woods next to our house that we look for with Chloe each day, so she was more excited about this than putting out the cookies and milk for Santa :)) to catching the bubbles she loves so much to the sheer joy of her first Sit ‘N Spin!

Joint Ventures 101

Do you know that one of the best ways to build a successful online business quickly is through joint ventures?

I know this concept can bit a bit hard to grasp to those of us who like being a lone ranger (kind of one of the common traits of being an entrepreneur, right?). But I hope you’ll join me as I more fully embrace the "no one reaches success alone" philosophy myself.

To begin, what exactly is a joint venture?
