How badly do you want to succeed?
This is such a powerful message: when you want to succeed as much as you need to breathe you will. If you really want to be successful you have to really want it. Carrie x Comments

A Creative Way To Solve Your Problems
I find that problems and creative blocks can be a pretty common occurrence when you’re trying to build a business! Some problems come and go quickly, while others seem to cause a bit of a block, these are the problems that can end up really slowing things down and leaving you feeling frustrated! More often than not I find that there’s a simple solution right in front of me, it’s just that I can’t see it because I’m so focused on the problem, but if I take a step back and change my perspective I begin to see the solution. Albert Einstein said, “The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.” (Click to tweet) If you continue to look at your problems from the same confused perspective you won’t find the solution, you’ll go round and round... -
Motivation Monday: Change Your Perception, Change Your Life
In 2005, author David Foster Wallace was asked to give the commencement address to the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College. However, the resulting speech didn’t become widely known until 3 years later, after his tragic death. It is, without a doubt one of the best videos I’ve watched this year – watch it and then think, ‘next time I’m in a situation I don’t like, how will I choose to see it? How will I choose to respond?” Charles Swindoll once said, “Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.” It’s true, isn’t it? We live our lives reacting to the situations we find ourselves faced with – the way we react depends on our attitude, our state of mind, our perception of the situation. Carrie x Comments -
A simple trick to boost your confidence quickly!
I don’t know about you, but I often find that building a business can often lead to me being pushed outside of my comfort zone. I have faced numerous situations over the years where I’ve felt so uncomfortable or lacked confidence, because I had to do something that was scary – something that pushed me outside of my comfort zone. One memory stands out for me in particular… it was a few years ago and I was giving a speech and I had worked myself up into such a nervous wreck! I stood up there feeling (and looking so uncomfortable!) it was a disaster. So I decided that I never wanted to feel like that again. I wanted to learn how to master my mind so that I could handle the situations I faced to the best of my abilities; I wanted to excel, not crumble. My learning led me... -

How to stay on track and achieve amazing things + FREE printable guidebook, planner and mind maps!
Time has been whizzing by and we’re already nearly half way through the year! Are you on track? Have you been making the progress you wanted to be making? Have you achieved what you want so far? I find that it’s so easy to get caught up in day-to-day activities – you start off the year with your goals written out and with the best intentions of reaching them, but then life gets in the way! All of a sudden 5 months have flown by and you’ve not made the progress you wanted to make. You’ve stopped reviewing your goals, let alone writing new ones! So, now is the perfect time to take a step back and reflect on what’s happened so far, address potential blocks and problems that have held you back, set new goals and map out the rest of the year! We’ve created The May Review Guide...
