Small Town Redneck Country Girl

Tuesday, December 19th, 2006

There was a small town country girl who had a passion for making gifts and giving them to anyone who wanted them. She didn’t do it for the attention. She handed out the gifts in a private area, outside of the public eye. She did not give the gifts to hear words of thanks or [...]

Okay, bear with me for an odd ball post here …
John Scott tagged me, so I am supposed to come up with five things that y’all don’t know about me and post it here on my blog. I will find a way to pay you back for this someday John!

Keeping Group Email Straight

Wednesday, September 27th, 2006

People often ask me is how I go about keeping group email straight. The truth is that I really do organize email using the same methods that I teach the members of my online groups and classes to use.

Throwing In The Towel

Wednesday, July 26th, 2006

I believe that the number one way to find financial success is to first find what you love doing, and then find a way to get paid for doing it.

It is all about which affiliate company pays the most, or which get rich scheme promises the most, the fastest.
I see website owners scrounging for ways to buy [...]

One Person’s Excuse …

Sunday, February 12th, 2006

When I used to speak to groups of people, I was able to express my thoughts and feelings with the tone of my voice and the inflection in my words. There was a passion in my voice that could motivate people to their very soul. I want to find a way to recapture that in [...]

If Things Can Go Wrong

Monday, January 16th, 2006

Sometimes, what seems to be an unmitigated mess, is just nature’s way of helping you to make some decisions.
During the last couple of years since this blog was first started, I have learned so much that it is almost hard to believe. Many times I have wished that I had set up things a little [...]

Groups and Forums Rant

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Receiving help in groups and forums is not a right that someone owes us. It is a privilege.

When did it happen that we decided that groups and forums were our own personal resource centers?
When did it happen that we began expecting people to do our research for us?
When did it happen that we forgot about [...]

Imagine This

Saturday, January 8th, 2005

The following was posted as a GENTLE reminder to everyone that the groups are set up to follow the structure of a classroom. The reason for this is very simple – because it works! 
Imagine for a moment that you were taking a college class at your local University.
The first day of class, before she taught [...]
