Lead by Example – Note to SELF

In bathrooms, boardrooms, buses, bagel shops, and everywhere else, we all need to imagine a little girl following us around, repeating everything we say and everything we do. Think about all the things you want for yourself and your daughters, granddaughters, and girls everywhere – and teach them by living it yourself.

What a quote.
What a reminder.
What a fact, worthy of that constant consideration

Are you living it?

What aCE talentNET will be offering to help 2009 kind to you… YOUR AdvantEdge

…as featured in this months AdvantEdge.

What we do…
For those of you who wish to find more work, we actively continue to source projects in a shrinking market.
For those of you looking to build a business, then we are prepared to teach you everything we know, and more …yes, that’s right!

What we are in the process of doing…
We have been in discussions with a technology driven DIY version of a Corporate Talent Agent, with the view to being able to offer ALL consultants and consultancies both a DIY service and a full service (like aCE talentNET). We will be rolling out full details as they come to hand, just as soon as all is finalised.
Think of this great initiative as another “feather in your marketing bow”!

We are also revisiting our affiliate program, smartening it up and rolling it out again, in its newly improved format.
Think of this great offering as another “string” to your passive income generating bow!

As as mentioned previously, we are also looking at setting up a forum for consultants to avail as they choose to. We will also investigate how we can open up keynote speaking opportunities, as this is what you’ve asked for. But it will take a little longer.
We will however be able to be really clever and tie it in with the coaching and mentoring. Quarterly get-togethers will also offered, together with access to a list of preferred Insurance suppliers, and the ability to download the latest in book summaries and audio offerings.

We will be setting up an internet based coaching and mentoring program that will be specifically about developing you as a savvy and sought-after consultant. In time, assuming we’ve done that development properly, then it will manifest itself in (provided you have put all that you will understand into practice) you having more of your own work than you’ll possibly be able to manage (won’t that feel good!), and that you in turn will be coming to us for assistance with resourcing consultants to help you deliver.
All of this amazing development will of course come at a price, which we endeavour to keep as fair and reasonable as possible. Details to follow.

As for the aCE talentNET website, the new version is already up and running, with further enhancements to be added on route. There is a dedicated consultant section, which will undergo significant improvement as more features are developed and are ready to incorporate over the coming months.

We will keep you informed of all initiatives as we go, via announcements in the Professional Edge and the AdvantEdge. Not part of our talent NETwork?

One Flaw In Women…no, REALLY!

Women have strengths that amaze men, and each other.
They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up to injustice.

They don’t take “no” for an answer
when they believe there is a better solution.

They go without so their family can have.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally..
They cry when their children excel
and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about a birth or a wedding.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They grieve at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.

Women come in all shapes, sizes and colours.

They’ll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
to show how much they care about you.

The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning.

They bring joy, hope and love.
They have compassion and ideas.
They give moral support to their family and friends.

Women have vital things to say
and everything to give.

HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,
IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

TEMplate – Its all about ME…this Mothers Day

Wouldn’t it be great if every day could be as special as Mother’s Day?
More time at home with family, rather than at work?

Well. “that’s what we’re talking about!”

the entrepreneurial mother is about designing that lifestyle for all mum’s (and dad’s)…

By continuing to be a part of the entrepreneurial mother community I show you how you can work less and still earn an income!

What this means?

Doing the stuff you want to do rather than have to…

Well what have I been up to? I am trekking around the globe with my daughter (lucky me!). This time we are visiting beautiful Spain, Morocco, Portugal, France and the UK. If you’re interested in hearing more about our adventures, check out the blog at https://www.theentrepreneurialmother.com.au/blog

So as I am kind of in ‘holiday-mode’ I will keep it short and sweet this time around.

The first of the ‘Design your Business’ workshops run in Mornington June 4.

This is about doing just that; designing your business around the lifestyle you want…

Alain de Botton – The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work

I read Alain de Botton’s latest gem whilst swanning around Spain, on “adventures with daughter”. I really enjoyed it. I do like the way he writes; and I do like what he says, and how he says it. I am a fan of his offerings I must admit.

I’d like to see him extend that to the Pleasures and Sorrows of being Entrepreneurial…I’m sure there would be many a good tale to be told and many great questions to ask.

I am particularly encouraged to see that he, and noted others, are putting their money where their philosophy is, and have set up The School of Life. Oh to be involved in something like that here in Australia…

Lynn Barber from The Age got to interview him whilst we were away. I’ve included it here, “The Way Words Work” for your viewing pleasure.

Been back nearly a week now…my, where has that time gone?
Slowly but surely getting back into the routine and rhythm of what is our daily life. Can’t wait for the next adventure though. But until then, daughter has basketball training this evening!
