"Communication is the only task you cannot delegate." - Roberto Críspulo Goizueta. I love this quote and find its timely relevance in today’s world of immediate gratification, where we are constantly distracted by noise from our cell phones, social media platforms, texting, etc.  At the core, we have become so used to using automation tools that many of us have lost the skill of engaging the other person in the conversation to see how we can potentially help. 

Communication skills have become a lost art, and I believe it has made sales and communicating with our peers and clients more difficult.  The reality is it’s easier than you think to master this skill and make your life at work and home so much easier and smoother to get things done when everyone needed in the process is moving in the same direction.  So how do we do this? 

Quickly become better at communicating.  I always offer my Communication Style Assessment at the beginning of every show, and I have had thousands of people take the quiz, and the feedback is always the same.  I hear, “I wish I had learned this skill when I started my career or business.”

You get me for a solo episode about my CSA and how you can use it to easily leverage your communication style to move your business or career forward.  Are you ready to learn about your style?

“Awakening is not changing who you are, but discarding who you are not.” – Deepak Chopra. When I turned 40, I was about one year in business, and I started receiving all these emails about the law of attraction, Universal laws, manifestation, mind, body, spirit, etc.  I felt like I had been asleep and was now privy to this new, amazing world where I had the power to have my thoughts become my reality.  I am always in the driver’s seat.  I couldn’t read or learn enough, and I was intrigued by so many new topics.  Have you ever had this type of experience? 

About Eva Müller:  Eva's journey, from searching for fulfillment to discovering her true purpose, is one of transformation and awakening. After years of chasing external achievements, she yearned for something deeper. A life-changing meditation experience opened the door to profound peace, clarity, and freedom, sparking her dedication to spiritual practice.  

Along the way, she embraced deep healing, clearing past wounds and unlocking her ability to transmit powerful energies to others.  Today, Eva shares the transmission of the Highest Truth through her guided meditations, where each guided meditation carries potent energy transmissions to help dissolve mental and emotional blocks, elevate vibrational frequency, create lasting inner harmony and alignment, and the realization of their Highest Potential.

Connie's motivational quotes for today is by Renee Rouleau, “Be good to your skin. You'll wear it every day for the rest of your life."  I turned 63 years old in November of 2024.  As I write my notes and see the #63 written out, I can’t help but pause and think about the aging process and what it means. They say 60 is the new 40 and I kind of agree with this notion.  For me being healthy on the inside is critical and yes, I will be honest and say I want to look good on the outside too.  That’s not being vain, rather it’s about living a thriving life and staying relevant for my business and for my clients.

“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.” – Abraham Maslow 

Check Out These Highlights:  I was recently interviewed on a podcast, and the host asked me how I continue to grow after so many years in business.  This quote hits the nail on the head.   I feel like I must always be in growth mode because I am afraid most days.  The fear could be of not delivering for my clients, recording a show where my energy is off, or when I am learning something new and afraid, I will look like a fraud.  Yes, I, too, have imposter syndrome with a record player that raises the volume of my negative self-talk more than I’d like.  The more we discuss this topic of fear and the need for ongoing growth, the easier it becomes for all of us to try things out to find the secret sauce that will work for us.

“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion, or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn’t matter whether you’re the lion or a gazelle – when the sun comes up, you’d better be running.” – Christopher McDougall. Holy smokes, I love this quote.  Every day is a new beginning, so whatever happened yesterday (good or bad), put it aside because today is a new day to create and generate new opportunities, sales, and wins.  Even if yesterday was a great day, today is not the time to rest on your laurels.  No one remembers what you did in the past, so please show up and be ready for today and the future.  You hold the power in your hand. Are you prepared to continue to adapt and shift no matter what happens in your industry?

"Grit is that ‘extra something’ that separates the most successful people from the rest.  It’s the passion, perseverance, and stamina that we must channel in order to stick with our dreams until they become a reality." – Travis Bradberry

YouTube: https://youtu.be/fgea2rqD5WI 

Check Out These Highlights:  Twenty-five years ago, I set out on a journey to take control of my time and income to start my business, and I never looked back.  I was passionate and on a mission to teach sales from the perspective of love, care, and respect, and I felt too many companies were pushing products or services and not loving on their customers to create even better results.  So, passion, perseverance, and stamina were all present every day! If it hadn’t, I wouldn’t be doing it anymore.  I reflect on the passion I had and still have. I know that I have lived my life with a true purpose, and I believe that is why my business has been successful.

Are you living a life of purpose by choice?  No judgment in my question, just a question to ponder and think about for your life and situation because it’s never too late to make a change.
