Stepping Back in Line...From Boogie Time

So my 'Baby Step Boogie' took me on a little detour. Life does that, however, detours off your path or stepping out of line, so to speak. The trick is to step back IN line and get back on track as soon as possible. Don't stop focusing on your goals because you've been distracted!

As it stands, I am still writing, still prepping, still researching, still 'getting ready'. I think there's only so much preparation work a person can do! As Nike used to say, you have to "Just Do It"!

So join me as I step back in line and get back on track. If I can do it, you definately can to! I am going to review my long term plans and remind myself of my long term goals. Create for myself a fresh focus.

Take that first step with clarity and confidence and before we know it we will be stepping back in line, coming back from baby step boogie time.

Cheers to our success,

Laura

The Baby Step Boogie!

I have begun to build up my writing repetoire. Pretty soon I'll have lots to share with you! So, my first baby step is about to take place. I have decided, however, to also focus on the social side of promoting my work. Nothing for sale or anything like that, but a writer needs readers right?

So, as a result, my system of baby steps gradually moving towards an ultimate goal has taken a little side step already! I'm sure, as I go along, I'll find that I will have to adjust several times, to maintain my goals. Perhaps there will be enough side steps for a little dance! I'll call this dance the Baby Step Boogie.

Remember, keep focused on your ultimate goals and plugging away at your current steps to get there. You'll dance successfully into your future!

Cheers,
Laura

Set your goals to match your dreams...using baby steps!

Okay, so recently I have tried to map out my life for the next decade or so, to include the successful realization of certain aspirations that I have, in an attempt to make my own dreams come true.

A lot of things lin life are not under our control, but somethings are.

Part of this plan of mine is to be able to earn money under my own terms, to allow me to be with my growing family and not feel dependant on anyone because of it. I have tried a few things (none of which very successful) and am now gearing up to sincerely make a go of it.

I am a freelance writer and content creator. This is the first baby step towards my future plans.
I hope to soon share, on this blog, some of my work so you can check it out for yourselves. I will also keep you updated on how things are going regarding my future plans. Believe me, if I become successful I WILL share how I did it!

Cheers to all,
Laura Gagnon

To Lead your Life, you must first Learn...

During the last three evenings, courtesy of Ben Mack's "Magic Week" Tele/Webinar series, I have had the pleasure of listening to Josh Waitzkin speak of his thoughts on learning and life. If you don't immediately recognize the name, Joshua Waitzkin is the real life kid whom the movie "Searching For Bobby Fischer" was based on.As you are on this journey with me, I wanted to share with you some of the key thoughts that resonated with me.

"It's not about how many moves you can count ahead, it's about what you're doing right now."Josh Waitzkin

Sure, you can plan ahead all you like but you need to learn to roll with the punches as well. Focusing on the here and now will ensure a greater quality to what you are doing, and isn't that what we all need? Greater quality of life, in any or all aspects of our lives.

"Meditation is a return to breath, noticing that we're off kilter and recentering"
Josh Waitzkin

Even if you don't practise the art of meditation, it's very possible that you need to stop and count to ten every once in a while when life just gets to frustrating!

During the teleseminars Mr. Waitzkin also spoke of bravery, and learning from loss. For any of you who have ever experience any loss in your lives, this is a very poignant point. Learning from and getting past loss is one of the hardest road blocks in life.
He is an extremely intuitive and sensitive person and it was amazing to hear his thoughts and teachings, to relate them to my own experiences and learn from them.
"The Art of Learning" by Joshua Waitzkin must be an amazing read and I look forward to doing so!

It's time,
Laura Gagnon

Pursuasion:The Art of Getting What You Want - Dave Lakhani

Along my journey I have found that you need to decide what you want and then go for it.You know, like setting goals and then achieving them. I found someone who has put a new spin on this; Dave Lakhani who wrote a book called "Persuasion: The Art Of Getting What You Want."
Basically, if you need to get the assistance of others to accomplish your goals, or if you are involved in any business that requires you to get more people to buy the things, then you need to know how to persuade today.
Leading your lives to a check point on the road to success!
Sincerely,

Bringing people together - Ken McArthur

When embarking on a journey, whether it be towards knowledge, prosperity, improved health or increased happiness, there are always going to be people or signs to assist you along the way. As I have been climbing this mountain of knowledge regarding marketing and business there are several people I have been discovering whose ideas have inspired many.
One of those people is Ken McArthur. As I have read about him, some amazing things have popped out at me. While I admit that I have obviously only been scratching the surface of information about the man and his work what has emerged has been really exciting.
Ken is an internet marketer who has built his career around the idea of bringing people together, to work and prosper together. Now that sounds like someone positive to associate with doesn't it?!?
Ken is the creator and host of the jvAlert Live! events. jvAlert Live! is "like no other Internet marketing conference. What started as an idea for a casual get-together of Internet marketing friends has grown into a dynamic event, combining top speakers, hot seats, and unparalleled networking opportunities. Above all is the spirit of collaboration that infuses every jvAlert Live!, leading to many lasting friendships and profitable partnerships."http://www.kenmcarthur.com/
"Ken has a mission, and that mission is to help as many people as possible earn a decent living on the Internet." I share in this mission, as earning a decent living would certainly be a step in the right direction to lead your lives towards success and happiness! With these reflections we are one step closer...
Cheers,
Laura
