The Conscious Female Entrepreneur: Dynamism In Action

Shifts of enormous magnitude are becoming everyday occurrences. Whether we initiate change ourselves or it simply happens as a result of living during this evolutionary push, we are experiencing economic, social, political, spiritual and gender-based reorganization on a universal scale. As female entrepreneurs it is our greatest opportunity to become benevolent leaders and shape our future as a planet. Collaboration and cooperation are the keys.

This is certain to be a dynamic conversation! Join Conscious Entrepreneur, Visionary, Muse and Women's Empowerment Mentor, Charlon Bobo in a heartfelt conversation with host Catherine VanWetter.

Inspiration 101
Charlon Bobo   Overcomers Aren't Special, Just Deliberate

OvercomersCover
So often we think others possess abilities inaccessible to us. We think they have more tools or were granted preferential universal status. We assume they know more than we do or life is easy for them.

None of these assumptions is true.

And not only are they not true, they prevent you from taking full responsibility for your life and your experience. As long as you have an excuse, you don't have to change the habits that are oh-so-comfortable and familiar! How brilliant is that for a mind-mechanism that tries to keep everything as-is? If you have a reason (read: excuse), you can remain in the cozy little life you've created.

And there's nothing wrong with that if it's what you consciously choose. But we're not talking about being choosing consciously, are we? We're more addressing the subconscious beliefs that linger and debilitate without much awareness on our part.

So, how much do you want a life that radiates from the highest place in you? And what are you willing to do to facilitate that change?

As long as you have a 'good' reason like, "She is smarter than I. That's why abundance happens for her," you won't even try to have a better life. It's a safe, but untrue, catchall that leaves you paralyzed by inaction.

However, if you're ready to live the highest version of your best self, adopting the seven defining characteristics of overcomers is a jumpstart to having a different life. Those we call 'overcomers' commonly:
  1. are tenacious
  2. learn and grow from every experience
  3. are proactive
  4. see opportunity everywhere
  5. help others
  6. develop a plan-of-action
  7. act on their plan
We all experience hardship. It's an occasional state of the human condition. The pendulum swings; being spiritual entities on this physical plane means we experience the full range of emotions and happenings as we journey.

It's not especially hard to be an overcomer in life:
  1. Understand circumstance doesn't define you. How you respond defines you
  2. Decide that circumstance does not dictate the level of enjoyment you can experience
  3. Take some action that's different than all the previous actions that have brought you to this very moment. If you do, I promise you'll have a different experience.

The Universe conspires on our behalf for our benefit. The greatest personal shifts I've ever known came as a result of deciding no circumstance controls my experience. After all, I am an overcomer and you can be, too.

I am honored to share my personal story in Overcomers, Inc. to be published this October.

Marketing QuickTip
Charlon Bobo   Repurposing your marketing content

MarketingWord
Instead of constantly developing a large pool of new content, repurpose your content to be used in every aspect of your overall marketing plan, e.g. your newsletter article can be used for article marketing, posted to your Blog, archived as free content, compiled into an e-book, and clips can be posted to your social networking sites.

From the Editor's Desk

My most inspirational insights come when I'm driving, bathing, walking in the forest or sauntering along oceanside cliffs.

This came to me during a recent driving trip:




Nothing fantastic was ever achieved
by anyone who was content with the thought,
'This is just the way things are.'


On life's path of continual discovery and enjoying the journey with you!

In Sisterhood, Light & Love,
