Hi Everyone,
How are you today?
Received this great quote from a dear friend and business associate, Claudine Struck:
'Life is not a race against other people. It is a one man race. You determine the destination, the route, the time limits and the prize. We are all running a different race.'
The whole concept for my book, 'The Amazing Race to Entrepreneurial Freedom', is that you are racing/moving towards your own goal(s), not competing against anyone else.
What beliefs are holding you back right now - FEAR of failure, success, embarrassment, security? How is this fear standing in your way of the amazing life you desire and deserve?
Imagine yourself at the end of your amazing race, what would your life be like, how would you feel, what do you see around you, how different would your life be? Hold this vision, thoughts, feelings, put yourself there in the future and then decide on your next step and commit to making that step by Friday.
It does matter where you are on your journey, dreaming/idea stage; at the starting line; part way through or nearing the finish line? Wherever you are what one action can you take by the end of the week, to move you closer to your goal?
It's all for the taking, you just have to tap into your passion, vision, empowering beliefs, commitment to your action and then ACT!
Get moving...I am here to support you!
Live YOUR Passion
Bye for now

Let it go, before it causes you stress and strain!
Hi everyone,
I wanted to share this with you.
'A professor begins his class by holding up a glass with some water in it for all to see. He asks the students, "How much do you think this glass weighs?"
'50gms!' '100gms!' '125gms' students answer.
1.3393757096
"I don't know unless I weigh it," the professor replies, "but, my question is:
What happens if I hold it up like this for a few minutes?"
'Nothing' ...the students say.
'What happens if I hold it up like this for an hour?' the professor asks.
'Your arm will begin to ache' says one student.
"You're right. What happens if I hold it for a day?"
"Your arm may go numb, you may get severe muscle stress & paralysis & have to go to the hospital!"
ventures another student. The other students laugh.
"Very good," the professor says. "But during all this, would the weight of the glass change?"
'No' they all reply.
"Then what causes the arm ache & the muscle stress?"
The students are puzzled.
"What could I do to relieve the pain?" asks professor.
"Put the glass down!" yells one student.
"Exactly!" says the professor.
"Life's problems go something like this: Hold them for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK. Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache. Hold them even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will unable to do anything."
"It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day before you go to sleep!"
"That way, you are stress free, you wake up every day fresh & strong, able to handle any issue, any challenges that comes your way. So, when you leave office today...Remember my friends...
PUT THE GLASS DOWN!"
I have had quite a few revelations in the pass few weeks and one of the things I have to put down is 'control'. Trying to control situations is actually stopping me from completing my amazing race!
What do you need to put down, RIGHT NOW, to continue on your amazing race?

What resources do you have, that can help to move you forward?
Hi Everyone,
I just read this and loved it!!
Quote of the day: 'Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.'
To keep moving in your amazing race, you need to be resourceful!
I decided today, to re look at my marketing strategy, I buy books all the time. More than I can read at the moment!! Anyway, I decided to pull a few books off the shelves to see what other ideas I could incorporate.
My book The Amazing Race to Entrepreneurial Freedom has great ideas too - plug plug!!:)
I really believe that no one has all the answers, therefore I suggest that you use what is available to you, to move you forward and build your knowledge bank.
What can you use around you to put to good use to move you closer to your dream?
Bye for now!
Gina

What is Wisdom?
Hi Everyone,
How are you today?
I was exercising with my dear friend Margaret last week and swapping stories of things that had happened or were happening to us. We commented on how rich the conversation was.
After I pondered on our conversations and thought how wise we were. I then thought...what makes us wise? What enables us to have wisdom?
This is my thought -
'The combination of knowledge, experience, internalising the learnings and understanding the overall meaning of what occurred and why it occurred.' This is what wisdom is to me.
What wisdom have you acquired that you can put to use on your amazing race?
