This week alone, I’ve been contacted to write sales copy for six potential clients. Now, I’ll turn down three of them, simply because I don’t really love the project… and it would be a chore to write for them. =) The other half? Well, I’ve already gotten started. Couldn’t wait. I’m often asked how /

View from the Sidelines: When “Stuff” Moves on Without You!
Today, I had the pleasure of seeing something I was once passionately connected to live on without me, get the media recognition it deserves, and inch EVER SO CLOSELY to the amazing and impressive and humbling finish line. From my bath tub, I did a fist pump in the air, celebrating the moment. Let me

What IS Balance… for the crazy successful entrepreneur?
One of my closest friends — who has not approved this blog post, so for now shall remain nameless — has been asked to speak on BALANCE at an event coming up in Maryland. I will, of course, be making this trip with her. She asks, “Aren’t I the WORST person to speak on BALANCE?”

These are the words I got not long ago from someone when they were reporting progress on a very specific goal they were pursuing. So, they say, “I have lots of interest, believe it or not, but no takers.” Um… yeah. I believe it. It’s the very problem I solve for my clients. Have
