Exploding Entrepreneurship – Coaching for Entrepreneurs
Category: Blasting ThruProcrastination, I explained, is not a brick wall. It’s a symptom of a brick wall. I mean, think about it – if you knew that moving forward was going to cause you to bang your head on a brick wall you’d put it off as long as possible, wouldn’t you?
I’ve had people ask me if I use the Law of Attraction. It’s kind of like asking if I “use” the laws of physics, isn’t it? Anything that is a universal law applies universally whether we are aware of “using” it or not. I don’t get to say “I don’t believe in the law of [...]
I have dragons in my life. I am blessed to have MANY dragons who have come along to rescue me from shredding my wings.
I’ve also had the opportunity to rescue a few dragonflies. Some flew thankfully on their way, some determinedly beat their wings against the screen.
Regardless of your role, dragon or dragonfly, just remember – you were BORN to fly!
I had an amazing workout with my fitness coach this morning. Actually, Kimberly is more of a “transformation coach” than a fitness coach. (That’s her on the left, of course.) She has a very interactive mind/body/spirit approach so our time together is a fabulous combination of hard physical activity (she’s teaching me to HIT things so [...]
Perhaps the most important thing I can say to this person, to all of you, and to myself is that in networking, or in anything else, being anything less than authentic is a dead end. That road might end for you the minute someone shakes you hand, it might not end until you have a retained client who slowly begins to realize that you are not the person they thought that you were. But it WILL end.
Still cannot be forced to bloom. “Personal growth is not something to be forced but something to be nurtured and guided – an organic evolution of self. Plant yourself in fertile soil and welcome both the sunshine and the rain. The glory is in the bloom, but the essence is in the roots.” As a [...]
What if one day you saw a dragon flying overhead? Wings spread wide, scales glinting in the sunshine, and flames erupting from his maw – a real, live dragon. Would you say “that is a dragon”? I doubt it. Your mind would struggle to make sense out of the non-sense being fed to it by [...]
As biological creatures we are always in a state of change. Our cells turn over, our viewpoints adjust to accommodate new data, our expressions become colored with idioms as words take on new cultural implications – we change internally and in response to external stimuli. Sometimes we feel like everything is in a state of [...]
Robert Merton, who is credited with coining the phrase “self-fulfilling prophecy” said “The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves.” Isn’t that how we all wish to be loved? Not perfectly as someone we are trying to be, not perfectly as an ideal, but perfectly as what WE were designed [...]
Keeping your goals from becoming a glorified to-do list. This week we begin a new year (and a new decade) and if you are like most of the Western World you have begun making your New Year’s Resolutions. If you are a business owner and entrepreneur like nearly all of my clients and a [...]
"I have personally been on the phone with Dixie when I had challenges in my business and when I had interpersonal challenges that affected my business. She is a wonderful, wonderful coach. She asks the tough questions, she draws out the information from you, and she helps you come up with your own solutions, which is what a coach really does. Dixie helps you bring out your effectiveness and I strongly encourage you to choose to be a part of one of her coaching programs."

"I have many teachers and mentors, but only one coach. Dixie is a class unto herself as a coach, as a muse, as an empowerer and as a fire starter. Because I work with Dixie, my writing is better, my thinking is clearer, my life is richer. Dixie is living proof of the need for human cloning - every entrepreneur needs a Dixie and there is only one."
-Scott Ginsberg, “The Nametag Guy” speaker, author Stick Yourself Out There, -Able and a dozen more
