Law of Attraction: Self Respect and Women

I started reading Suze Orman's book "Women and Finance". She brings up some important issues about women as employees and business owners. One of the questions she brings up is "why is it that time and time again women get paid less that their male counterparts?" Suze suggests that one reason this happens is because women do not negotiate. When it's time for the annual review, men tend to go to the meeting with their game face on. Men compare the annual review to a football or basketball game. Women, on the other hand, compare the annual review to a dentst visit. Basically, men find this meeting exciting while women find it painful. Men tend to negotiate their pay raise while women accept whatever they receive. The problem here is that women could potentially be missing out on a million dollars worth of life time salary if only they would negotiate. It's a two way street. There are the abusers and the abused. If women allow themselves to be abused, then they will be. Women need to stand up and realize what their self worth is. They need to be confident in their abilities and the value they provide for whatever company they work for. Women deserve to be paid right for their efforts.

I think the worst situation occurs when women who own their own businesses charge less or accept less than fair market value for their work. Ultimately these women are the ones saying that their own value and services do not compare to those of others. This is just wrong. Charge whatever you know you are worth and stick with it. For instance, if you are a consultant charging $80 and hour. Stick to that. Don't go less. Your time is valuable.

I do some freelance online maketing work and I worked on a small project that took me eight hours to complete. The client thought it only took three hours to complete.
I've done some freelance work for some time now and this is the first time this has happened to me where I had to negotiate the actual time it took to complete something. I point blank straight out asked the client, "do you honestly think it took me three hours to complete all this work?" I asked the client this question three times in the course of a week and the client could not answer me with a simple yes or no. What does this client expect? Pro bono work? I told the client my time is valuable and that I demand respect from everyone I work with. I took time out of other projects to work on this and I expect to be paid for my time. Do not take this type of abuse. Women, know your self worth. Stand up for yourselves and don't take any abuse. When you do stand up for yourself, you will feel liberated. It feels great!

The Secret to Success- Focus, Focus, and Focus!

If you think about it, opportunties are endless. You can do anything and everything you set your heart to achieve. I truly believe this. As I sit and write this, there are a dozen or so business ideas running through my head that I want to pursue, I'm thinking about a dozen or so books I want to read, and I haven't forgetten about the daily tasks and errands I need to take care of. The problem that many of us face is that there are so many things to do and so little time. We tend to lose focus when there are a million things running through our head. The secret is to focus on each task one at a time. When one task is accomplished, move onto another. Do you have a big project? Break up that project into smaller tasks. Complete each task one by one. Before you know it your big project will be complete. Then move on to the next big project!

Law of Attraction- Keep on Moving

I met with a business consultant yesterday for some advice on a project I am working on and we started talking about motivation. I told him I was stuck in a rut and it seemed like there was so much to do to achieve my goal of having a successful business. He told me to keep on moving.

"If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, keep moving." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

He told me to crawl if that is all I can do for the time being. I sat there and thought about what he said for a while. I realized I wanted to run as fast as I could but there were certain things that weren't in place which meant I needed to crawl for the moment. I was acting somewhat impatient because I wasn't running yet but crawling is also a key part of the process.

Before someone can run they have to walk and before someone can walk they have to crawl. Every successful person out there did not achieve success overnight. Actors and actresses can spend years in acting school, olympic runners spend four years preparing for perhaps a 20 second race, and businesses don't become multi milliion dollar enterprises overnight.

Keep on moving forward and you will eventually finish the race. One step at a time towards your goal.

Law of Attraction- I want to be healthy ALL the time

I haven't been posting lately because I caught a bad case of the flu. I was telling someone the other day how I get sick once a year, usually around this time. He told that he use to expect to get sick once a year as well and that one year he just stopped expecting to get sick and what do you think happened? He stopped getting sick. So, I'm going to stop expecting to get sick once a year and expect to be healthy ALL the time. Let's see what happens. :)

NY GIANTS & The Law Of Attraction: “Expect” to Win!

The New York Giants are the best team this year because they won when it mattered the most! For the most part, the only people who thought the New York Giants would win were the NY Giants themselves and all their fans. Their season started slow, losing their first two games and their head coach Tom Coughlin was on the verge of getting fired for poor performance. How did the New York Giants end up winning the Super Bowl against the favorite 18-0 New England Patriots??? Part of it has to do with the fact that the New York Giants EXPECTED to win. Practically all the sports analyst favored the New England Patriots but that didn't stop the New York Giants from believing in themselves and expecting to win.

GO GIANTS! I'm proud of you!

Be thankful for what you have NOW. Whenever you are in a thankful state of mind, positive energy flows throughout your body. Attract positive energy and more positive energy will come your way; that is the Law of Attraction.

If you want something meaningful in life, chances are it will take some work to achieve it. The Universe will test you. Believe me. When you hit a roadblock, don’t give up. It’s just the Universe asking you how bad you want something. If you give up, then that shows you never really wanted it in the first place. Don’t give up. Keep on going until you reach your goal.
