I don’t know if I was born for Squidoo or Squidoo was made for me. I do know that I have found my favorite vehicle–a place to practice target marketing. I believe that everyone is in sales. By that I mean we are each trying to get our personal agenda met every day. So how do you make sales easy? Find your target market and people buy from you because you are providing them a service to buy what they want. I began my main blog, kathyberman.com (Changemaker: Reinvent Your Life), in November, 2004. After writing daily for 10-12 hours for over 2 years, I came to believe that the blog had too much information. I had decided during the first few months of blogging that I didn’t have the time to write about all I’ve learned in thirty years of recovery and answer comments.

Knowing that I would be in for a long, lonely road without comments didn’t deter me from the decision to exclude comments. I have always posted my email address and posted several times about new directions the blog was entering. Of course, my choice brought me no traffic. Although I have been consistently and continually online for over two years, I have no traffic. I read a lot of blogs that have high readership audiences and have never regretted my choice.

Coach Yourself to Success: 101 Tips From a Personal Coach for Reaching Your Goals at Work and in Life

Talane Miedaner

ISBN 0-8092-2537-9

“Coach Yourself to Success is divided into ten parts that build on each other in natural progression. Each part contains 10 tips that you don’t necessarily have to do in order.”

“In Part I you will learn to increase your natural power by getting rid of the major energy frains in your life and putting in some positive energy boosters”

“In Part II you will learn to make space for the new things you want in your life. Excess “stuff” reduces your ability to attract success. Nature abhors a vacuum so if you want something new in your life, you have to create the space for it.”

“In Part III addresses money. Why work for money when you can learn to make money work for you? This is where you will begin to tell the truth about money, plug the money drain in your life, and get on the path toward financial independence so that within ten to twenty years you won’t have to work for a living. Most people get by on just enough money. If you want to be effortlessly successful you need more than enough money.”

“In Part IV, Talane shares some secrets of creating time. You will learn to focus on what is truly important and eliminate the chronic time wasters that devour our lives before we know it. This creates a sense of balance and control in your life.”

In Part V you will learn how to develop a supportive network of friends, colleagues, and mentors. You will also identify and find ways to satisfy emotional needs that may have been unconsciously driving your behavior and choice of friends.

In Part VI you will discover what really turns you on in life and learn how to make the smooth transition to doing exactly that without financial risk.

In Part VII you will learn how to become exceptionally efficient, productive, and effective.

In Part VIII you will learn the art of listening profoundly. Successful people usually have one key trait in common: they have learned how to communicate with power, grace, and style.

In Part IX you will be ready to start care of your number one asset: YOU. Here you will learn how to eliminate unnecessary stress, banish burnout, and surround yourself with luxury. Now is the time to pamper yourself and surround yourself with luxury.

In Part X you will strengthen the key characteristics of success. This part is not about doing things; it is about a way of being.
