It was a Sunday afternoon, the 7th day of my already too long work week, when I had an epiphany that changed my design practice permanently.
It was the day I discovered my ideal client, buried among way too many other clients that I'd simply said "yes" to when I should have said "I'm not available (because we're not a fit.)"
6 months later I took my first vacation in 5 years, a 3 week trip to India to Mumbai, Delhi, Agra, Varnasi and more. We stayed in Oberoi 5-star hotels in every city, it was extraordinary and unforgettable. (Have you been?)
It was 12 months later that I looked back on my year and realized that I'd effectively reduced my client load to exclusively ideal clients, wrapping up or referring out everyone else.
And, my work load had gone from 70+ hours a week to a livable 40, while MY REVENUES STILL DOUBLED.
Until then I'd suffered the delusion that in order to earn more, I had to work more and harder. (Does that sound familiar?)
BULLS*** that was a limiting belief and an illusion.
Come join us at The Go Beyond Intensive, in early November in sunny Scottsdale, AZ, to cast aside your design practice illusions and delusions.
Let's unearth your limiting beliefs and shine the light of truth and reality on them, watching them evaporate POOF! So you can create a new paradigm of success in your practice.
There is absolutely no value in overworking.
It's not a badge of honor to brag about working too hard (trust me I did it!)
You'll also learn how to build a team, whether you want them to be full time in office, virtual part time freelancers, or somewhere in between (1099). It's all possible and I've done it all.
When you are willing to delegate, you'll reclaim control of the chaos you may be feeling. (And you'll learn key shortcuts to training so it doesn't drain you.)
And, of course, WE'RE GOING TO DO THE BIG WORK ON MINDSET.
After all, "whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right" said Henry Ford.
Waiting only keeps you stuck where you are. You may have some great clients, and be making good money, and yet you don't feel in control, you're stretched thin, and you want more time for the whole of your life.
Come join us, I'm here to coach, guide, and mentor you with proven processes, simple systems, and effective strategies.
And you'll get the benefit of learning and sharing with talented colleagues, their best practices, hot resources, and cool solutions.
Mega Hugs,
Melissa
