HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION!
Welcome back to the weekly podcast, No More Excuses! Thank you for listening and sharing my podcast. And, this week, whoever shares my podcast gets a chance to WIN a set of my 3 books! I'll draw a name on Friday and announce the winner on Monday in Podcast #173! So SHARE AWAY please!
Thank you again for your continued investing in YOUR Badassness!
WOW! Last week was a "WEEK"! Lots going on – personally and professionally – however on Friday I was talking with someone about all the whacky things that had happened, and she reminded me that Mercury is in retrograde! Well, that makes sense! But... it's not always good! Although the distractions were good that happened Wednesday and Thursday, the result was NOT! I missed calling a prospective client! I know I know... that happens to everyone, but it's NOT normal for me and that's NOT how I want to start out with someone.
There was definitely a glitch with my calendars syncing. (Mercury retrograde), but I did NOT use that as my apology excuse! Life happens – good and bad – and although it was a good distraction, it created a negative effect on my business.
Last week's podcast was about sticking your toe in the water, empowering others and creating a POSITIVE ripple effect. And well, sometimes you can cause the opposite.
For example, in THIS WEEK'S PODCAST, I talk about how a client's lack of time management and allowing her life to become a "shit show" has caused a negative effect on me, on the attendees of the group she's part of and, I'm guessing her customers as well.
YOUR REPUTATION PRECEDES YOU! Your reputation IS your BRAND! How do others perceive it? Are you one that's always apologizing for [fill in the blank]? Or is it a fluke, like a BIG DISTRACTION [and a glitch in the calendars syncing]?
Listen in this week and then email me or post in the comments when SHIT WENT SIDEWAYS for you and how you handled it? What kind of ripple effect did it have?
And don't forget... SHARE THIS PODCAST [make sure you tag me so I know] or if you email it, just include ME in the email sballard@growingforward.biz to be included in the drawing! I greatly appreciate it!
Have a great week and I look forward to hearing from you! Cheers! Sandi
