- May The Force Be With You - by Submitted on Mar 14, 2013 from Jeanna GabelliniI was never a fan of the Star Wars movies when they first came out. I didn't get what all the hype was about…until a decade ago. A friend told me I had to watch all of them, because I would become a fan. He was right. It was actually the character of Yoda I fell in love with and his lessons ...

Views: 1395(1 vote) - How Do You See Yourself? - by Submitted on Feb 08, 2013 from Jeanna GabelliniI inadvertently became an entrepreneur about the time I turned twenty-one.

Views: 3593(1 vote) - Micro Intentions - by Submitted on Jan 23, 2013 from Jeanna GabelliniEven the most organized of us makes mistakes when focusing on desires.

Views: 1565(2 votes) - Structures to Keep You on Purpose - by Submitted on Jan 09, 2013 from Jeanna GabelliniYou know the importance of goals, so you make them.

Views: 1235(1 vote) - Money Games - by Submitted on Dec 11, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniWhen it comes to money, people get serious very quickly. "Put your money where your mouth is" implies that if you're serious about something, "pony up" the money and follow through. I often watch business owners get excited about a business idea, goal or fantasy vacation and then immediately ...

Views: 1296 - Monetize Random Acts of Inspiration - by Submitted on Nov 09, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniYou have great business ideas and opportunities coming to you every day. Yes, even those of you in slumps have them. But having great ideas and opportunities doesn't always equal money in the bank.

Views: 2033(1 vote) - Are You Focused on Money In or Out? - by Submitted on Oct 05, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniThere's nothing like a money goal to throw you into a tailspin. As you move through your year, you measure the amount of money coming into your account by which month it is. Then you ask yourself if it's possible to generate the amount you want by year-end. Unless your income keeps moving up ...
Views: 1630 - How To Jump Into a New Profit Bracket - by Submitted on Sep 20, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniI don't know about you, but I struggled mightily trying to figure out how to make a quantum leap in my business.

Steve Jobs, you say. Partly, I say. Innovation. Steve Jobs was an innovator. A pioneer in the technology world. His big focus was not money, yet he attracted more than most. How does that work from a Law of ...

Views: 1321 - Don't Do It For The Money - by Submitted on Jul 04, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniDo what you love and the money does not always follow. Just ask the 80-90% of life coaches who make under $100,000. Most life coaches get into the profession because they love helping people transform their lives. It becomes a rough journey to make a living when they don’t have certain business ...
Views: 1767 - Increase Your Ability to Attract More Profit - by Submitted on Jun 21, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniMost people get by with just enough money to pay their bills, splurge on a toy once in a while and take a yearly vacation.

Views: 1231 - Winners Ask Powerfully - by Submitted on Apr 18, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniOne of my favorite books on attitude is The Aladdin Factor by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hanson. They say, “If you don’t ask, the answer is always no.” And they are right. You have to ask for what you want from yourself, others, the Universe/God and your own Inner Guidance. I’m a huge ...
Views: 1314 - Radical Change for Profit - by Submitted on Apr 04, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniWhen my mentor and mastermind group told me they were confused about my brand, I became confused. What?

Views: 1285 - Pushing for Profits with a Capital P - by Submitted on Feb 22, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniI admit it. I’ve had plenty of freak out moments about money during my fifteen year adventure as a coach. It doesn’t matter that I teach and breathe the ins and outs about the Law of Attraction, I still get ticked off when I can’t produce the results I need and want. The real kicker is when ...

Views: 1538 - Judgment & Alignment: Business Lessons from the Court Room - by Submitted on Feb 14, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniI’ve always heard that jury duty in the U.S. is an interesting experience. Interesting in a good way. I thought I’d enjoy it, but I never wanted to do it since I’ve owned my own business. I have a very delicately balanced schedule between work and kids. If I unexpectedly had to leave for a week ...
Views: 1570 - Make Peace with It - by Submitted on Feb 07, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniI was right in the middle of watching American Idol and my stomach began cramping. I thought it must be a gassy tummy and assumed it’d go away shortly. I was wrong. I barely slept a wink that night because of the intense pain. I had a very important list of tasks for the business that needed ...
Views: 1362(1 vote) - Did You Forget Your Magic Wand? - by Submitted on Jan 31, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniPeople often poke fun at the thought of having a magic wand. I don’t think there’s anything funny about making your life hard. We each have a magic wand called intention. You have to clarify your request and then make the decision that it will be so. I’m one of millions (probably even ...
Views: 1501(1 vote) - Stop Living on the Breadcrumbs Leftover After Expenses - by Submitted on Feb 14, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniI’m very clear that the way I pay myself each month would not be endorsed by your bookkeeper or accountant. It’s just unorthodox (I’ll say more about this later). But then again, the way most solopreneurs pay themselves is by seeing what is leftover after paying all of their expenses. What ...
Views: 1426 - It's You or Them but Somebody Needs to Fix It - by Submitted on Jan 08, 2012 from Jeanna GabelliniIf you’ve ever had an issue getting rockstar results from the people you hire or partner with, you’re not alone.
