PostHeaderIcon The Power of Love

In the 80’s, we all danced around to Huey Lewis & The News singing about whether we believe in love and about the power of love taking us back to the future. Remember that? Those were the days when we were carefree, loved our boys and probably weren’t thinking much about business.

These days, maybe the opposite is true: you spend more time thinking about business and less time believing in love.

We know. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that you can still find love, but we know it’s possible… as long as you want to.

Oftentimes in the conversations we have during our workshops around the country, we find that women have lost their belief in love and feel that it’s no longer something that they can experience in their lives.

Cher has a great quote that we love: “If grass can grow through cement, love can find you at every time in your life.”

You see, finding love starts with the belief that you can find it, find him and that you deserve to have it all: boys and business.

When you believe it, you’ll see it and see it manifest right before your eyes. When you open your heart, soul and spirit to love, inevitably you will attract it and by golly, love will find you.

By keeping your eye out for the man you feel is your Mr Right and by revising and refining your Dear God Letter as you meet different candidates to determine who’s really right for you, you just may find that Huey Lewis was right when he asked, “Do you believe in love? Do you believe it’s true?”

And then you’ll find that Huey and the boys summed it up perfectly when they sang:

“They say that all in love is fair/ Yeah, but you don’t care
But you know what to do/ When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above/ You feel the power of love
Can you feel it?”

May 2011 be your year to embrace and celebrate the power of love… Sing it, Huey!

PostHeaderIcon Start The Year Out Right

calendar2This is your year for happily ever after. You have decided. The question is, are you committed? To have it all you are going to have to be committed to taking action. Finding Mr. Right is possible but you must be willing to put in the time and effort. As we have said before, go find Prince Charming instead of waiting for him at the door.

Before we help you get ready for the love of your life, we want you first to get rid of your excuses.

Top Excuses For Not Finding Mr. Right

1) I don’t have any time.
2) All the good men are taken
3) I don’t want to have to give up my career
4) I don’t know where to meet him
5) I need to lose weight first

Girls, don’t let these excuses sidetrack you from having the life you want. You may be satisfied right now with life and maybe you were like us and thinking this is as good as it gets. No more status quo in 2011! It’s time. So what can you do?

Here’s how to start:

• Determine what you want. Know what you are looking for so when you find him, you keep him. Write your Dear God letter today.
• Decide what you will give up in order to get what you want. You might have to forego watching your favorite show to go out on a blind date or skip spending time on Facebook to go on Match.com. You might have to leave work on time to go to an event.
• Associate with people who will help you get what you want. Surround yourself with people who support you and tell them what type of person you are looking for.
• Have a plan and work your plan. Join a dating service, start taking a class, schedule time to put yourself in a position to meet the right person.

Next, believe it is possible. You need to be excited about your life in love! Tom Barret says, “It is time to dust off your hope. Dust off your belief. Dust off your confidence. Dust off your determination. And it’s time to Dust off your dreams.”

Why?

Because you are either going to dust them off or cast them off. That choice will impact the direction and quality of your life for years to come.

It’s your time to have it all!

PostHeaderIcon Looking For Love vs Looking For Looks

girl-looking-over-glasses1As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “What we seek we shall find…”

When looking for Mr. Right or that right business relationship, keep in mind that you will eventually get what you are looking for. What’s most important is to be clear about what it is exactly that you are seeking.

We know that when you look for something in particular, you are seeking certain qualities and characteristics so your awareness of these traits is raised. You are more sensitive to them so you will readily pick them out when you see them.

Here’s a simple exercise to play with for a moment to understand what we mean: the next time you are in a crowded room with lots of people or you are going to a mall to shop, focus on just finding the people who are wearing red. Chances are, you will start seeing a whole bunch of people wearing red-because that’s what you are looking for and focusing on.

The interesting thing that occurs for many women is that we tend to look for a man with good looks instead of looking for a man who will love us and who we can love.

As we like to say: Don’t look for the man you can live with; look for the man you can’t live without.

Looking for a man who is tall, dark and handsome may preclude you from seeing and meeting the man you really could fall madly in love with. We know this firsthand and can attest to the benefits of looking for the qualities and traits of the man and relationship you want to have, instead of just looking for good looks alone.

In business, getting clear about the types of people you want to work with and the qualities and characteristics they possess is similar to seeking the man of your dreams. The process is the same. Using tools like the Dear God Letter are the same to clarify what you want in the professional relationships you are seeking.

The more you seek, the more you shall find.

So take the time to make the effort to clarify who it is you really want to be with. Then seek him out and build the life of your dreams with the man you love.

“It’s your time to have it all!”

PostHeaderIcon Be Complete Before You Meet Him

Remember that popular scene in the movie, Jerry Maguire, when Tom Cruise’s character, Jerry, says that famous line to Renee Zellweger’s character, Dorothy,  “You…complete me,” and so many of our hearts melted as we heard it?

We’d like to hit the pause button on the DVD or BlueRay player and suggest that you take a moment to think about this:

Before you venture out to find Mr. Right, be complete with yourself.

As the new year rolls in, make a commitment to be complete with past relationships you’ve long abandoned, past jobs you’ve left behind and all the people who weren’t really supportive of you in your quest to find the right man for you. Close these out once and for all so you can regain the energy that any thoughts and feelings about these have been draining in your life.

Sweep out the old to make room for the right and bright new ones.

Now, get clear, really clear, about who your dream man is and what career you really love. Understand what is most important to you. Be certain. Be confident. Be complete with both: boys and business.

Then actively seek the life you say you want. Write it down. Use the Dear God Letter to prioritize what you absolutely must have to make it right. Make a point of reading through it every day.

Keep in mind: What you think about, you bring about.

By keeping these details at the top of your mind, you’ll tend to focus on finding what you desire, instead of what you don’t.

So when you finally say that famous follow-up line like Dorothy did in Jerry Maguire, you can say it with confidence because you know you are complete. You know what you really want. You’ll recognize him in an instant and then you’ll hear yourself say:

“You had me at hello.”

It’s your time to have it all!

PostHeaderIcon Sex In The City

sinc

Sex and the City opens this weekend!

This is a great time to grab your girlfriends for some good ole fashion Girlie Fun.  The women of Sex in the City are on a constant quest to have it all.

They are all strong women who know what they want and who go after their dreams.  They each have different goals, dreams and personalities but they also have a very important common value, they put their relationships first.  They take time for each other and are there for each other for the good times and bad.

Having these relationships have made them all more successful in their personal romantic relationships as well as their professional lives.  They have all had their ups and downs but they have managed to come through with shining colors.  We know it’s a movie and not real life, but why can’t it be. When you put relationships first you can have the Hollywood movie ending.

Think about the relationships in your life and how they have enhanced your days, months and years.  Relationships are truly what make you rich.  Have fun at the movies and afterward decide what it is you want and go for it.

It’s Your Time to Have it All!

PostHeaderIcon How Mr. Right Can Change Your Life

Closeup of a young relaxed couple smilingSometimes, admittedly, it’s nice to be a single girl with a life all her own.

You get to use all the closets, dressers and space in your home the way you want to. You can TIVO whatever you want to watch later and never have to share the remote and television with a sports-aholic. There’s plenty of room for what you love to eat, wear and use.

So why bother with Mr. Right anyway?

Maybe your life is complete right now. Or is it?

How do you really feel when you see a couple romantically sneak a glance at one another, reach out to hold hands as they walk by you, or chit chat in that quiet seductive way over dinner or while waiting for the train?

Do you ever wonder how Mr. Right could really change your life?

Mr. Right is more than just someone who’s a guaranteed dance partner at a gala or someone to take the trash out.

He is the person who adores you – even when you’re blubbering with tears streaming down your beautiful face. He’s the guy who stays up with you all night when you feel sick.

He stands proudly by you, whispering “I love you” and “I’m so proud of you” at just the right moments.

He’s the man who when you see him, your heart really does skip a beat and you feel yourself just melting into his embrace and deep, loving kiss.

Yup! He’s the one that loves you unconditionally and lights up at the very sight of you and sound of you on the telephone.

A life without Mr. Right is like a life without romance…

A life without that very special feeling that only he can really bring about in you.

Think for a moment about what your life would be like with him.

Now take a look around yours.

With him, you can really have it all: the man you’ve dreamed of and the amazing professional career you love.

He really does exist – for every woman.

Not sure how to find him?

Let us show you how:  http://www.boysbeforebusiness.com/membership.html

PostHeaderIcon What a week for BBB!

We hit the Dallas market by storm with two book signings and a live event at Saks Fifth Avenue with Trish McEvoy make-up artists bringing our the best in each of our guests.

Then it was Los Angeles for the DSWA National Convention.  We met so many amazing people and had a chance to teach people about how to discover what’s important for you and understand your core values then decide what you want by writing your Dear God Letter.

Knowing your values and what you want with boys and business lays the foundation for success.  Sounds easy but we often don’t take the time to actually sit down think about this let alone write it down.  By taking the time to write down your core values and their definitions and by writing down what you want, you have taken the first step in having it all.

If you don’t know how to determine your core values or what you want listen to our free teleworkshop that walks you through the process.  These two exercises will change your life dramatically and improve your relationships with boys and with your business http://www.boysbeforebusiness.com/teleworkshop.html.

In May we are off to Miami, and later in this week we have an exciting announcement.

PostHeaderIcon Mr. Good Enough Is Not Enough! – Find Mr. Right

relationship difficultiesHave you ever heard someone suggest to you that the guy you’re dating is “good enough?”

Oftentimes we think that because we’ve found someone who is nice and can take care of us, we should just settle.  Even though we feel like companions more than a couple, at least we’ll have SOMEBODY.

Well!  We say why settle for Mr. Good Enough when you can find Mr. Right??

It’s actually a lot easier to find Mr. Right than to live a life with little to no romantic  spark.  We meet lots of women who say they’d rather be alone than to be bothered with Mr. Good Enough.  But if they really could find Mr. Right…they’d be interested.

We say finding Mr. Right is much easier when you put Boys Before Business.

Preparing yourself to meet him is the key to your success in finding him.

Know what is most important to you – yourself – before you start looking for the perfect match.  Identify and understand what you value most in relationships with others.  Think of the relationships in your life that you love and use these as models to discover what’s most important to you.  Is it Honesty?  Integrity?  Love?  Family? Achievement?

Figure out the essence of the relationships you love and then seek the man who shares these relationship ideals.  Then you’ll have what it takes to build that dream relationship with your dream man.

Knowing what’s important to you is one of the best first steps for meeting Mr. Right.

Finding him really is easier than you think – when you put Boys Before Business.

Want to find your Mr. Right?  Not sure what you value most?  Take 60 minutes and listen to our tele-workshop.  Click Here for details.

Schedule it and listen when it’s convenient for you. Take your first steps to finding Mr. Right right now. What are you waiting for?

PostHeaderIcon Holiday Spirit in Question?

Christmas girlMaybe you are one of those people who just can’t seem to get into the holiday spirit.  You would rather stay inside all day then take part of all the hoopla.  That is perfectly fine.  Just don’t stay home sulking, stay home and be productive.  Use this down time to journal and highlight your years successes.  Write down everything big and small.  Think about your favorite moments of the year, what were you doing?  See if you can find the activities that make you smile.  This is a great exercise to remind you of all the things you have accomplished.

This is also the perfect time to clean your closets and clean out the clutter in your house and make room for new clothes, new opportunities and a new man.  If you are holding on to anything of boyfriends past reflect on why you are holding on to the object then check in with yourself and see how you are feeling and decide to get rid of it.  New door usually only open when old doors close.  Go out and enjoy yourself or read a great romance novel, or go to a chick flick, they can help you visualize the type of relationship you really want.

Above all be yourself and do activities that would comfort your spirit.
