I’ve been doing a lot of thinking recently about my business, what I want it to be about and where I want it to go… and although I’ve been working for myself for a number of years now, what I’ve been doing has never felt quite right – until now. And that’s as exciting as it is scary… scary in that I know that this is it and it’s truly up to me to take myself and my business to a whole other level. I feel like I’ve been free climbing a mountain up until the last few months, when things started becoming more clear and I started following my own advice about "investing money to make money" and began accumulating the tools and resources (and mentors!) to drive things forward… and it’s working. It’s actually working.
I know there are so many others out there who have felt this way… and they are part of my motivation for making a huge success of my work, so I can help more of them to their own success. My other motivation is my family, of course, especially now with Chloe. She started crawling today. I’m so grateful I was here to witness that, to be a part of cheering her on and giving her lots of hugs and kisses when she reached me. And I just had this overwhelming desire to make certain I made my vision of what I want our life to look like and be about a reality.
With James’ unwavering support and Chloe’s absolute joyful presence, I see that book I’m writing with a heartfelt and grateful dedication to both of them.
Love this one – Chloe smiled when the priest poured the Holy Water on her head, and we all just cracked up… 🙂
Another week has passed… Chloe is playing with Kermit at my feet.
I love the look on her face… 🙂
I started my Google AdWords campaign this week, and it’s been a bit frustrating. Where’s all my "instant" traffic? 🙂 I’ll keep you posted.
We’re off in search of gifts for Daddy’s birthday on Monday. So looking forward to family time this weekend.
We had Chloe baptized yesterday and it was wonderful. So many of our friends and family came and that meant a lot to James and I. Here she is in her outfit ~ so sweet. Two of my oldest friends, Christine and Mark, agreed to be her godparents and we couldn’t be more thrilled
. One of their three daughters, Sarah, asked if she and her sisters could be Chloe’s cousins now.. awwwwww….
It was a wonderful day. The service was so nice, and the party afterwards was just pure joy. Chloe was soooooo good all day, even hours after she missed her afternoon nap. She just smiles and giggles at everyone and goes easily from one person to the next, which is a good thing since she got passed around a lot!
She’s just such a good little girl, we almost can’t believe it. James and I have realized that she’s going to be a tough act to follow!
We are blessed.
I can’t believe it’s been a week since I posted last…time really is flying now that Chloe is a little older and much more interested in EVERYTHING. I really have to keep my eye on her! But it’s not hard when she’s so damn cute…
It was a really good business week, too: I finished up a 4-week workgroup about listbuilding that really helped spur my efforts in that area. In a month, I’ve had more people subscribe to my ezine than I have in two years of my previous ezine. Very cool. Now I’ve just got to keep the momentum going… My goal is 1000 readers by next summer, so if you know a coach, consultant, online entrepreneur or other solo pro who wants to get more clients, create profit-making products and services, and make more money, please send them to http://www.clientabundance.com. Thanks!
I also am in the thick of Ali Brown’s latest marketing workshop which is FABULOUS. This lady rocks. I want to be just like her… 🙂
And I’m seeing my vision really clearly of where all of this is headed… and I’m so excited. Thanks so much for coming along for the ride!
I was afraid Chloe had a deer tick on her yesterday – those suckers are so tiny it’s hard to tell – but the dr. checked her out and she thinks she’s fine, thankfully. We live in an area of the country were Lyme disease is prevelant, and our home is on the edge of a wood filled with deer, so I was concerned.
I never knew what true worry was until I became a mom. But as much as it’s exhausting, it also helps put some other things into perspective. She is a happy, healthy baby girl… and for that I am very grateful.
Her grandparents are coming to see her today… She gets very excited when she sees them – it’s really sweet.
