Thrive Again: 3 Tools to Bounce Back from Devastating Losses
It's incredibly easy to get stuck in a downward spiral when you've suffered devastating loss or a series of losses. Loss begins to feel normal and begins to become what we expect.

You need something to help you flip the switch and reset the lens through which you see the world. These 3 things are helping me. Perhaps they'll help you as well.

Thrive Again: 5 Perks to Losing Everything
The law of attraction folks don’t talk about it. Even those who expand their discussions to all the laws of abundance don’t really talk about it. But it’s something that most likely is going to happen to you at least once in your life.
And when it does you’re going to think you’ve done something wrong. You’re going to think the laws have suspended for you. Or you’re going to be tempted to abandon all hope.
What is it? In one word LOSS. Massive, confidence-shattering, lifestyle-resetting loss....

Before You Spend a Dime on Paid Advertising, Do These 5 Things
Many business owners think if they just advertise, they’ll be able to get lots of business. This simply isn’t true. Not everyone’s business is ready for paid advertising. And not every form of advertising is a good match for your business.
I started out as a computer trainer back in 1990. I tried advertising on the radio and in a local business magazine. Neither was effective.
What I learned is that you need a budget big enough for repetition and you need the right venue to reach your ideal c...

What Do You Do When A Dream Dies?
I’ve heard people say “never give up on your dreams” but in my experience dreams change and some dreams we lose or they become obsolete.
Perhaps you swap one dream for another because one dream is more important to you than the other. In choosing the better dream, I think it’s important to allow yourself the space to grieve the loss of the old dream.Especially if it was something you worked for and fought for long and hard. Losing a dream is like losing a friend. Grieve.

Facebook Ad Strategy: How to Target Other People’s Followers
If you’re the author of a self-help program, perhaps you’d love to reach people who follow Oprah. Or maybe you invented a football video game and you want to reach people who love Madden NFL. Both of these are possible with Facebook advertising.
Bear in mind that you can target other people’s followers IF Facebook chooses to make that person an option in the interests. People you can target are not always available just because they have a lot of followers. There doesn’t seem to be a rhyme or...

Facebook Ad Tip: Narrow Your Audience
If you use the default settings with the Facebook ad manager you could waste a lot of money advertising to people who aren’t an exact match for your product or service. In fact, up until recently, you didn’t have a choice to get any more specific. But now, there’s a little link that changes everything. Without this little link it’sdifficult to zero in on the exact people you want to reach. With it, it’smuch easier to get “pin-point specific” with the Facebook ads manager. Let me give you an e...
