Becoming an Energized Entrepreneur/Executive

It’s time for some new mojo for 2010. I took a self-battical in the fall to re-energize and revitalize how I wanted to inspire, educate and encourage others to enable their dreams and potential. As a Certified Speaking Professional and Author, it’s easy for me to take the stage or take to the keyboards. Speaking to Fortune 500 Corporations, Associations, Private and Public Organizations for over 13 years with Fun*cilitators has given me many insights into the energy of an organization.
Organizations are made up of people and the organization cannot be revitalized if the people are not energized – from the executives to the employees. Entrepeneurs are the same. For many entrepreneurs, they ARE their business – they are the product or service, so how can any of us serve others if we don’t have it to give out.
If we don’t take care of ourselves and recharge our energy stores, then we can’t give what we don’t have. My years of coaching entrepreneurs in the network marketing industry has taught me over and over again that not only can we not motivate others, we cannot give them energy – both are inside jobs. But we can offer ways to create an energized and motivating environment. We can tap into their WHY, their style, their nature and how they naturally show up for life and then offer systems, tips, tactics, strategies and ways of being that will work with each individual’s preferences. Be it organizational, image, space, right/left brain integration, bio-rhythms and type of work, outcome and lifestyle they desire.
I’ve been creating a series of tele-classes to pin-point the different areas we can energize in our lives so we can revitalize our whole lives by finding the drains, plugging them and then plugging into something greater to lead us to our most fully expressed and energized selves. Energized entrepreneurs and executives effuse energy into their work and their organizations and that is precisely what this economy needs is creative leaders, movers, shakers and thought leaders who have the energy to take others with them. It’s all an upward spiral breeding success.
Announcing the Energized Entrepreneur/Energized Exec tele-class series. I am offering a series of tele-classes throughout the year on topics to energize your work, wealth and well-being. Some classes will be hosted by moi and others will have guest experts from different areas so all aspects of your life from your space, stuff, time, goals, wealth, relationships, health, image, shadow self, marketing,business, and organizational preferences.

Edit, Add, Appreciate, Energize
Filed Under Energized Entrepreneur, Energized Environment, Health, Well-Being, Whatever, Workplace | Leave a Comment
Sunday evenings seem to be a time to get revved up for the coming week. It’s at this time when I tend to think about these 3 simple things that will energize me for the coming week – moving me forward in creating the life I want to lead.
- Edit: What can I edit from my life this week? A material object, thoughts, habits, behaviors, people, work or activities that don’t serve me well any more. It could be an article of clothing, a negative perception, a food, an annoying or sniggly trait. Let it go and move on to greener pastures. What is holding you back or what is causing your stress that you need to edit? Where are your bottlenecks or frustrations? Do you have excesses in your life that you need to edit or dial down? How about unfettered consumerism, debt, or unbridled shopping or retail therapy that is out of control. Edit your perspective on your point of enoughness, your needs and wants.
- After all my moves, I’ve realized you can’t just edit once and be done with it for material things. Life changes and your needs, wants and priorities change. That’s why I keep going back to re-edit and simplify. Pare down to the essence of what it is that creates joy and happiness in your life and edit out the clutter – internal or external clutter.
- Add: What can I add to my life that will bring me more joy, happiness, energy, health, wealth or whatever. Reinvent one thing such as perceptions, creations, activities, objects, recipes, people, business contacts, a route to work or walk, a new friend, new music or a new book. How about adding new beliefs or trading some of the old beliefs that may not be true to you now for what works for you as an adult. Take inventory of what your parents taught you that worked when you were 8 or 18, but not when you’re 48. Times have changed and our thought processes and perhaps some beliefs should change as well. Our beliefs rule our behaviors and our results. What can you add or edit in that area? What might be missing in your life that you’d like to add for a fuller, richer experience on Earth?
- Appreciate: What or who needs more appreciating this week? More fully appreciate someone or something and say your gratitude out loud or to yourself for these things. Act on your promptings. Send a card right now to somebody who needs to hear from you: send me an email and I’ll show you how to send a free card at Gail@BizBuilderCards.com. The more you do it, the more it gets ingrained into your brain. Do this one on a daily basis for even more impact than weekly and this can become a new habit that you add which adds to other people’s lives. Appreciate your surroundings, show your acknowledgement to those who serve you, rejoice in your beautiful environment. If it’s not so beautiful – add to it or edit to make it so. Who needs to hear from you today or who needs appreciating?

Free Energy – Light at the End of This Economic Tunnel
Filed Under Energized Entrepreneur, Energized Environment, Wealth, Workplace | Leave a Comment
It’s not everyday that somebody offers you free energy. It happened down in Texas during Hurricane Ike when I was attending the Ambit Energy convention. It was better than being in the Oprah audience – the screaming, the excitement, the jumping up and down. Not only did they give away a Lexus, and a trip to Puerta Vallarta for everybody in the audience; they are making history by giving away free energy.
That’s right – free energy – as in free electricity and free gas to heat your home in the deregulated energy states of NY, IL, OH and TX. Here’s the deal, if you are in an area in those states where you must choose your energy provider, and you choose Ambit, then refer 15 people to also use Ambit, at no cost to them, you get your energy for free month after month. How awesome is that???!!!
Here’s the best part – if you are a member of a church, synogogue, school or other non-profit organization; you can help them out by hooking them up to be an Ambit Affiliate for just $99 and when their congregation or members switch to using Ambit, the organization earns up to $9 per household every single month. Yep, a recurring income for the organization just for it’s members turning on their lights or heating their home.
Energy deregulation is sweeping across the country and currently Ambit is only in a handful of states with plans to expand nationally in the future. Customers earn travel rewards just for switching to Ambit at no cost to them. They also earn travel and coupons for gasoline for every kilowatt or therm they use each month and now they can get their energy for free just for telling others about switching to the program…. and who doesn’t want to save money on their energy or get free energy?
The cool thing is that consultants for Ambit also earn money every time their customers turn on the lights or heat their home. Learn more about how you can help families and have a recession-proof income, check out this 20-minute video at Ambit Energy. Giuve me a call after you watch it at 805-985-8730 (California), or drop me an email: Gail@YourEnergyExpert.com. You will be glad you got in front of this tidal wave of opportunity, as deregulation will only happen once…. are you going to catch it, or be washed ashore?

Are You Living in Your Right Brain or Your Left Brain? Piles or Files?
Filed Under Energized Entrepreneur, Energized Environment, Well-Being, Workplace | Leave a Comment
Where are you most comfortable living… in your left brain or your right brain?
Left brainers, elbies, are more comfortable linear thinking, number crunching, logical, facts, details, math, science, rules, thinking, reality based and safe.
Right brainers, arbies, are more creative, free flowing, mind mapping, artsy, musical, big picture, visionary, risk taking, feelings, imagination and fantasy.
I recently was directed to this website from an Australian newspaper that has a graphic of a dancer. Whether you see her spinning clockwise or counterclockwise can tell you which side of your brain you’re living in at that very moment.
Check it out: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,22556281-661,00.html
I found I could only see her spinning in one direction. I couldn’t for the life of me visualize how she she could be seen spinning in the other direction…. until I started reading the words that represented the other side of the brain. When I read those words, I could then see her spinning in the other direction automatically and immediately. How weird is that??!!
That’s how fast you can switch from using one side of your brain to the other. From all these kinds of tests over the years, I’ve found I sit right in the middle on the fence and can easily swing from one side to the other depending on the situation.
To help you access and integrate easier for problem solving, creative thinking or number crunching; try throwing something between your hands or juggling. Throwing something back and forth helps you integrate. Growing dendrites on both sides of your brain can also be accomplished by little activities such as brushing your teeth with the opposite hand, eating with the other hand or European style, crossword puzzles, Soduko or other memory games.
Elbies and Arbies also store things differently. To be most efficient, figure out which side is more comfortable for you to live in. Elbies tend to store things vertically behind closed doors such as file cabinets, closets, drawers, hangers etc. These are the neat desk people.
Arbies tend to store things horizontally and within plain view – these are called piles. Right brainers need the visual stimulation to remind them to do something. If it’s out of sight, it’s out of mind. They prefer hooks to hangers and shelving to drawers.
The rest of us in the middle are the anal retentive creative types – horizontal stacking in-boxes that are labeled. A mixture of both styles.
Figure out your style and your preference, then organize your space around your style to feel most at ease, to find things more easily and then know how to access your other side of your brain and call in the reinforcements when you need them.

Is Your Environment Toxic?
Filed Under Energized Environment, Health, Well-Being | Leave a Comment
Having just returned from a week in Florida doing a tradeshow, I realized how much I took fresh, clean air for granted. I’m now living in Colorado where the air is fresh and clean from all the pine trees producing all those negative ions which affect us in a positive way. The air is less dense at a mile high and it’s dry and invigorating.
I had the unfortunate displeasure of staying in one very toxic hotel room – with black mold, rancid air, ceiling falling in from a previous water leak from above. Even with an ozone machine to kick out the odors, I knew I was in a toxic environment and my body and health knew it immediately as well. Not only did it affect my health, it affected my mental and emotional state, as toxic environments can do. Unluckily I was stuck there, with 25,000 of us in town for a tradeshow, all other hotel rooms were booked up and luckily it was only for 5 days.
Upon returning to Colorado, I promptly began a nutritional cleansing program for the next week to get my health back in balance by cleansing my body at the cellular level and get rid of that junk I breathed and consumed. My usually healthy vegetarian diet was curtailed by the lack of nearby alternatives during that week as well. You can test-drive a 9-day nutritional cleansing program to jump start your health and wellness before the holidays. It’s a great way to drop a few pounds, regain mental clarity and give your body a break by detoxing the safe way.
I work with people weekly who either live or work in a toxic environment. It can be emotional turmoil, stress, or burnout from the wrong fit with their job, their boss, or their other personal or professional relationships. It can be physically toxic such as breathing bad air, working in a “sick building” (the EPA has cited that one third of the corporate buildings are considered sick buildings.) or living in an area prone to mold, mildew or other environmental toxins. If you suspect you are suffering from some environmental toxins, take the simple eye test online for $9.95 at Chronic Neuro Toxins. It will tell you immediately if you have toxins in your system after taking the Contrast Sensitivity Test. I have more resources for you if you find you are toxic.
Your stuff that you once loved, coveted and adored can become toxic and a drain on your system. Helping a friend through her divorce, we discuss all the stuff she happily accumulated over the years that is now weighing her down. The task of sorting through it, selling it, moving it and finding a new place to house it can be very draining.
Having moved 20 times in 28 years, I know a thing or two about purging your stuff to keep things moving through your life and making way for new things and opportunities to show up. Jettisoning two-thirds of my belongings in my last cross-country move was liberating. It gives you the chance to update your style with who you are now and not who you were when you bought it. If something doesn’t bring you joy, have a good memory, or make you smile; drive it to Goodwill.
Take a good look at your home or work environments to identify what may be toxic in each area. Take a fresh look at the people, the job itself, the fit, the tasks, your yard or outdoor space, the colors, the space, the sights, sounds, smells, the state of mind you’re in when you’re in that space. Is it too hot, too cold, too humid, too boring, too active, too congested, too much traffic, or not enough positive energy, or not enough challenge, or too challenging or too much tension? Are the people too old or too young, is the building or neighborhood too old or too new, lacking character and soul or too much history? Does your environment fit your style?
Are you relaxed, energized, drained, stressed, excited, calm, on edge, uncomfortable or exuberant? Do you look forward to being in that space or do you dread it? Can you be who your really are in that space? Can that space bring out your true talents and abilities? What can you change or control to make it less toxic? What is out of your control? How does your body react when you step into that environment? Pay attention to every level of reaction in all areas and then take action to make it healthy for you. It doesn’t make sense to detox your insides if your outsides are contributing to your state.
