Subscribe and snatch up your copy of LouAnn’s Strategy Framework: ‘5 Steps from HERE to THERE’ Simply fill out the form below. . . Transcript: Perhaps you’ve shared a big dream with a friend or family member recently and perhaps they have laughed at you, rolled their eyes, gasped in astonishment, or perhaps you friends and family are silent when you talk about your big dreams and your big goals. You know when that happens to us it can really derail our focus. It can cause us to doubt ourselves. It can cause us to give up on our dreams and our goals and cause us to forget to create the life we really want to live…. if we actually listen to it So what do we do? Well it’s interesting. I was listening to an interview with Tom Cruise on the Graham Norton show. It’s an older interview but it was so insightful Now Graham Norton said this to Tom: When I interview people who have worked with you they not only like Tom Cruise, but they gush about working with you. They LOVE you and LOVE working with you. He said he never hears a single bad word about Tom Cruise from any of his colleagues. And then he said: On the other hand the media can give you a really hard time. And if you follow Tom Cruise at all you low that’s true. There’s a lot of nonsense out there written about this incredible actor. So, it’s really interesting… Tom responded by saying this: He said he had learned form Paul Newman. Paul said to him, ‘You can’t pay attention to the white noise. Do not listen to the white noise.’ and then Tom added, You have to focus on what you’re doing and do the best job that you can do. (you can hear this part of the interview at minute 13:52 here) And it just seems to me that that advice is spot on and helpful for those of us who are working to create our own version of our own lives. You don’t have to be a movie star to get white noise. Every single person who’s building a life of big dreams and big goals Who’s building a life that’s maybe a little bit different from the people around them Every single person who’s making a change is going to have white noise What white noise are you experiencing in your life right now? and Are you willing to ignore it? It actually takes more strength and more maturity to ignore the white noise around us than it does to stand up and defend ourselves against it And When we ignore all the white noise and focus on what it is we want to do with our lives then we make faster progress We’re actually happier and we actually create the lives we want in a quicker fashion- in a...

Did you fall off too? You know what I mean. . Did you fall off that resolution bandwagon? . Man – that hurt. I fell on my shoulder… nearly knocked it out! . It seems everyone is falling off the wagon. . Actually – nearly everyone is. You know why? . Resolutions Don’t Work! They don’t work!!!! . So …. . I’d like to make a pact with you. Watch this week’s video and let me know if you’re in. . I guarantee you – it’ll change your life. . . . . . Be sure to share your perspective in the comments! Your voice matters! .

Transcript: Did you fall off yet? . You know what I’m talking about. That news years resolution bandwagon thing. . Did you fall off? . Well here’s the thing. I used to always fall off if not on January 1st, I would fall off by the 2nd or 3rd. Sometimes I would make it into February. It never worked for me. It never worked for me because it actually doesn’t work. . Resolutions don’t work! It’s not how humans are made. . You know what works is when we make a resolution in our mind and in our heart of what we want and then the goals and the strategies flow from there. . We all like a new start. We all love a new year. We love making a declaration – but almost all of us fall off that wagon very quickly after the start of it. . I have an idea. What if we made a pact? . What if we made a pact to not beat ourselves up for falling off the bandwagon of resolutions? . I mean we all kind of do that don’t we? We make this resolution we fall off it – we beat ourselves up ….. it’s a terrible cycle. . Think about this for a moment….. . Would you want other people to describe you as an abuser or as someone who controls the people around them and yells and screams at them? …. Well if you don’t want to be described as an abuser or controller, then it means you can’t be an abuser or controller of yourself either. . Because how we treat ourselves is the standard in our lives of how we treat others. . So why don’t we make a pact? Let’s make a pact that we will not beat on ourselves for falling off the bandwagon or making a mistake or for being less than perfect . and . when we do accidentally beat up on ourselves….. Let’s make a pact to not beat up on ourselves for beating up on ourselves – cause that just contributes to the cycle . What happens when we stop beating up on ourselves: We increase our self-worth We increase our self-value We increase our confidence . and all those things come together and then we increase our efficiency and we increase our ability to actually reach the goals we really want to reach. . So whatever with the resolution thing maybe it’s a fun game but when you fall off that resolution bandwagon… no more beating yourself up because you’re human and resolutions don’t work . Alright so that’s the pact I’m making> . Are you in? . If you’re in let me know in the comments wherever you see this video. . Let’s grow our lives and our confidence and let’s move towards our goals. . Let’s create the lives we truly want and let’s start by refusing to beat ourselves up . You can create the life you truly...

Read MoreThey’re Wrong! You MUST Look Back!
You know that meme that says, “Don’t look back – you’re not going that way”? . Well – I have a real problem with that! . I say, “LOOK BACK!” . In this week’s video I explain why we should look back and then I show you how all of that can be used as your fuel. . It’s time to stop hiding our past. . It’s time to stop feeling ashamed! .

To join our community and snatch up your copy of LouAnn’s worksheet: ‘Achieve your Dreams and Goals: 5 Easy Steps’ simply fill out the form below. . . . You can create your life. You can, if you want. Transcript: . I often see those memes on the internet and they say something like, “Don’t look back you’re not going that direction.” . Every time I see those memes I cringe a little bit. I mean I understand what they’re trying to say don’t look back as if your best days have already past and don’t look back as if your mistakes define who you are today. . I totally get that. But … . There is a strategic power in being willing to look back. here’s an example: My friend said to me just the other day. . She said, “When I hear the term ‘Live Your Dream’ – she said I think of you because two years ago what you’re doing today was just an idea . And now here you are: you’ve relocated, you’re in a whole new career, you’re doing exactly what you said you wanted to do. . Now that reminder from her gave me a lot of power cause it helped me to see from where I was two years ago all the way up to where I am now. And looking at that progress in the right way – in a celebratory way – actually helps me to refuel for more progress. . If you just look at the present – sometimes – I don’t know about you – but sometimes I fell like, day in day out . I’m digging in digging in digging in – I’m clawing my way up the mountain… . Sometimes you feel like you’re not making any progress at all. So when we look back and see where we’ve come from, then we have something to celebrate. That gives us power to view where we want to go in the future. . So I say: Look Back! . Go ahead and look back and take that journey that you’ve been on and use it as a celebration and as fuel to move forward. Don’t be afraid of your past. . You know they say it doesn’t matter where you’ve been. I say it does matter where you’ve been cause every place you’ve been has contributed to who you are today. . And all of that is useful and important and informs everything you do as you move forward. . Now you don’t have to be prisoner of it you can reframe it, you can rethink it, you can rewire those memories so they are used for your power – but don’t forget where you’ve been because that’s part of who you are and it’s incredible how you have overcome and you have stayed committed. . You have risen up and you’ve grown and you’ve become who you are today. . And who you are today is going to inform who you will be tomorrow. . Don’t ever be ashamed of or afraid of your past. . Your past is your power. Use it and move forward. . Create the life you want by using all of the life that you’ve been given ....
