Wow! I spent the weekend with my IPod glued in my ears. I listened to all your episodes back to back and was really inspired. I learned some awesome tricks that I will be putting to use. Thank you for helping me cut the lawn, trim the bushes, take out the trash... etc...

I will also acknoweldge that I set up two blogs and I am second guessing a couple of things...

First of all, I set them up for free on Blogger. Hmmm... I am questioning this tactic. While the beta version is much more user friendly, I am not sure I want to be tied to them when TypePad seems to be ahead of the game... Amazing how free seems so good... but do I really want to loose 1/2 my list if I ever need to move my blog?

Secondly, I keep remembering your first episode "Blogging isn't It." (I think I got the title right?) Anyway, I am realizing that subsciously I must have thought that setting up the blog would mean instant success. Why do I say this? Becuase my blogs have been up for about 5 days and I have NOT been flooded with new business?!?!?!?!?! Isn't it funny to see how we get caught up in magical thinking sometimes. Anyway, I am in for the long haul. It is my life's passion and I now realize that it is not "instant." Yes, I will have to do somethings...

Thanks for continuing to inspire us and showing us ways to more deeply express who we are in a powerful and compelling way - while building our businesses!

Until we connect, create a blog a day!
