So much for those lazy days of summer. (At least in this house.)
While I do have two trips planned, I’m in a “get as much done as possible” mode. I’m finishing up a new product I’ll be launching soon (stay tuned for more details, but if you have a web site that isn’t making you money, I think you’ll find this VERY helpful). Also, I’ve got a BIG, top-secret program planned for September. If you’ve been wanting to work with me, but didn’t know if you could afford it, then this program is perfect for you.
On top of that, I’ve landed a bunch of great new clients (if I told you their names, I know you’d recognize them).
So, while I’m excited that business is booming, it’s kind of a bummer I’m not able to kick back the way I did last summer. But it’s my choice. That’s the beauty of being in business for yourself — you can choose when you want to work hard or take a break.
I hope you enjoy today’s article, which is more on the mindset for owning a business.

I finished walking my first marathon in San Diego a couple of weeks ago.
It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
But, it was also an amazing accomplishment.
One thing that struck me while hoofing it toward the finish line was the similarities between running a business and running a marathon (or in my case, walking a marathon). Here are 3 more (you can read the first 2 in Part 1).
3. There is no “should.” When you picture the type of people who do marathons, who do you see? Young, thin, athletic?
Nothing could be further from the truth.
There were people of all shapes and sizes, of all ages (there is an 80-99 year old class by the way) and some with pretty significant disabilities.
And, not only did they finish, but a lot of them beat the pants off of the people who more resembled the stereotypical marathon runner.
So how does this relate to business success? Read the rest of this entry »
