Clarity Begins With Your Core Message

By Emma on January 30, 2012 No Comments

I just got back from Passion2Profit – a 2-day live event my by beloved mentor, Joel Bauer. As always, the quality of people in attendance was very impressive. The “Who’s Who” of major industries were represented there and I had the pleasure to meet most of them!

I also had the opportunity to speak with a lot of new and transitioning entrepreneurs. Their main concern? How to

TURN THEIR PASSION INTO PROFIT.

After speaking to about 60 people this weekend, it was so interesting that about 40% of them had one common challenges:

1) They have too many passions and talents.
2) They are not quite sure which of their passion to monetize.

3) Those who are able to identify one passion are doubtful on how they can monetize it.
4) They are doing something right now that’s not necessarily what they want to do but they are monetizing and therefore challenged to step out and do something in alignment with their passion.

It was quite obvious that one or a combination of these challenges were blocking people from moving forward. The good news is that Joel gave attendees the tools to go home and work on the exercises and find tune their choices even more.

The sad thing is that I know from experience, that unless they make a DECISION that they’re going to be able to identify and clarify their passion, it will take them months if not years to be able to do something with it. They will continue to live a life of compromise and will remain distracted and unproductive. A year later, they’ll be on the same boat, confused and wondered what could have happened.

I realized that there are 2 major kinds of CLARITY that a lot of entrepreneurs need right now.

1) Clarity of Passion
2) Clarity of Message

It’s interesting to note that many of them are already jumping into marketing – learning social media, video, email marketing BEFORE they truly identify their core message.

The core message is tied to your passion. There is a reason you do what you do. There is a driving force for why you do things and while money is a major motivator, there is something else inside of you that prompts you to dig for a deeper meaning and reason for what you do.

Once you identify that, the possibilities are endless. It’s like discovering a compass… a new direction… a new meaning for your life.

I am excited for those who are going through the motions of getting clearer about their passion and their message because if they choose to stay on that path, I KNOW they will find it!

Would Love To Celebrate You In 2012!

By Emma on December 28, 2011 No Comments

Happy “Almost” 2012!!!Still here in Louisville, KY enjoying a most awesome holiday with my husband’s family… Decided to spend some time at the Louisville Public Library to get some quiet time and a moment of introspection while my boys check out Puzzle’s Fun Dome for some father/son time

I am looking out through the glass window watching snow fall to the ground and it’s beautiful!

I just thought of how incredibly amazing the past year has been for

me and my family. This was a year of major BREAKTHROUGHS that

I never thought possible for myself, until I sought the help of and

invested in the right mentors. It was then that I realized that no

matter how much we know, there’s always going to be someone

who has already figured out the map or holds the blueprint to where

we want to go…

(Here I am Speaking and Training at the Microsoft Store In South

Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa, California)

YOUR IDEAL MENTOR… Should be someone who is:

1) TRUSTWORTHY – already has a proven track record and

already has people raving about the results they have generated.

2) CARING - genuinely cares about you and your entire well-being,

not just your business but the MIND, BODY and SPIRIT ( the

Mindset, Message, Mission that create the Miracles) behind

the business.

3) GENEROUS – in sharing of himself/herself where as soon as

your working relationship starts, you are treated like family.

4) RESULTS-DRIVEN - is focused on ACCOUNTABILITY and

RESULTS rather than excuses.

5) CONNECTED – has already built influence with other thought

leaders so you have access to his/her circle of influence and

invaluable resources.

6) INVESTOR – has already invested hundreds of thousands of

dollars to learn and teach proven success strategies.

7) ACTION TAKER – has already gone through the long learning

curves in implementing highly effective marketing systems.

8 ) TRAINS OTHERS – on his/her expertise in a group setting or one

on one.

Humbly yet boldly, I can honestly say that I am one such

Mentor who is Trustworthy, Caring, Generous, Results-Driven,

Connected, Investor and Trains Others.For 2012, plans are underway to uplevel my game and getting

more visibility and exposure into main stream media – TV, Radio,

Print – as well as speak globally on a topic near and dear to my heart:

“Relational Marketing – The Heart of Marketing Is Marketing

From the Heart”

As I envisioned my 2012, I couldn’t help think of you and

how you too could potentially benefit from this.

I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO BE ONE OF MY SUCCESS

STORIES FOR 2012!

Which means as I speak worldwide about my message,

you will be one of the people I will be celebrating and whose story will

be featured along with mine! Your story will also be included in my

upcoming book “The Relational Marketer”.

As you probably already noticed, I make it a point to be respectful of

my subscriber list with offerings every week. I hope that by now,

you already know that ENCOURAGING, EMPOWERING

and EQUIPPING you are foremost on my list.

However, in the spirit of creating “Win-Win” scenarios for 2012, I

have decided to create an “Irresistible Offer” to you my loyal subscribers.

For the next 2 weeks, I would love to give you the opportunity to

work with me for a fraction of what clients would normally invest in

my programs.I have a complete VIP DONE FOR YOU PROGRAM that is

normally offered for $15,000 and part of that is a VIP Day with

me.

Some of my clients who are not quite ready to invest that sum

of money, have asked me if I can meet with them for just the VIP Day,

so I started to offer that for $2,997 and to get me for a full day at

that price is really an amazing value…

HOWEVER, for a very limited time, I am offering that same

FULL Day VIP Day with me, just you and I where we can do sooo

many things listed here, even have me take your branding photos

and shoot your videos or help you update your blog, or fine tune

your message…

ALL OF THAT IS AVAILABLE TO YOU for $997. (And I may

even accept Payment Plans)

(What’s the catch? I can only offer this for the next 7 days

and only to the first 9 people as I want to make sure I have

time for those who are investing the full amount for my

complete Done For You Program)

What’s in my VIP Day? Please click on the link below:

www.VisibilityInfluenceProfits.com

How many times have you invested 3x or even 4x $997

on a course that’s still sitting in your shelves and you never used?

Imagine spending a full day with a Mentor who can help you

make a Quantum Leap in just one day for such a small

investment?I know this offer will go fast so if you’re tired of being stuckwith technology or tired of being unclear about your message

or if you have always wanted to create a product or marketing

funnel and just don’t know how…

This VIP Day offer is for you!

Not to mention, having your own photos and videos done in a day

and getting advice on what topics to speak of and how to speak of

them, now that in itself is worth it!

If you’re one of the select few who will be able to take

position ASAP. Let me know why you should be one of the 9 I advantage of this offer, you would need to do this IMMEDIATELY:

1) Send me an email to info@therelationalmarketer.com and let me know of your interest and secure your position.

2) Immediately act upon the email invoice I will send you.

3) Schedule your 1 hour pre-VIP Day Phone Strategy session via

my online scheduler.

4) Schedule our full VIP Day!

5) Prepare for a Quantum Leap in your personal and business

life and finally be more understood, appreciated, admired, create

a following of people who are ready to invest in whatever it is that

you offer!

Again, please go to www.VisibilityInfluenceProfits.com for

more information and grab your VIP Day with me now before

price goes back to $2,997. (This means even if you’re from out of town

and need to fly into Orange County Airport, CA, you still get big savings!

Have a truly Beautiful, Blessed, Abundant and Inspired 2012!

A Very Happy New Year!!!

Until next time…

I’m Cheering You On To Your Success!

Why Do You – Or Don’t You – Blog?

By Emma on December 12, 2011 1 Comments

This weekend, it was so nice to catch up with friends either bumping into them while shopping at the mall or at holiday parties and neighborhood mixers. Of course with the usual, “What are you up to these days?” sort of question, I couldn’t help but notice that there are still a lot of business owners out there who are still resistant to online marketing. Interestingly enough, some of them still don’t know what a blog is and for the few who do, it’s there is still a resistance in their mind about blogging, social media, video and email marketing.

See? And most of us in our online circles think everyone knows what we know and that we don’t know enough to make a difference in other entrepreneurs, right? Well, if you’re beginning to feel that way, it might be time to seek out other ponds to fish out from. I guess that topic is for another day… Let’s stick with “Why Do You Blog?”

I am not new to blogging… I have been blogging for the past 2 years and what’s interesting is that it I still get asked by a lot of entrepreneurs on why they need to blog. I find it really odd that most of them are still highly resistant to blogging.

What’s interesting is I totally understand their hesitation. It took me an entire year before I felt comfortable launching my blog. From entertaining the idea of having a blog, to thinking of what to write on my blog, to getting over the vulnerability of sharing who I was and what I am about was a HUGE deal!

How did I overcome blogging? I realized that I have life’s lessons that entrepreneurs can learn from. I also have specialized branding, marketing and relationship skills that I can share which will enable entrepreneurs and those who are transitioning from the workplace into becoming business owners.

I also believed then that like the “Good Steward”, every good and perfect gift that has been given to me, will be taken away – or will become useless and of no value – if I don’t use it.

I have always kept a journal… I had “diaries” from when I was in grade school… trust me, that’s a loooong time ago and yes, I still have them all with me.

So, I made a decision to blog and at that point, it didn’t matter to me whether my blog would be read by one person or one million people. My goals were simple – to ENCOURAGE, ENLIGHTEN and EMPOWER Entrepreneurs!

ENCOURAGE with inspiration from personal life’s experiences

ENLIGHTEN – with Mindset and Spirit Driven Personal Development Principles

EMPOWER – with specialized branding and marketing skills, resources and relationships I have invested thousands of dollars and hours on, through the years.

I know there is always room for improvement. I know I could use more efficient plug-ins, I could drive more traffic and optimize my blog site. That’s precisely what I am in the process of doing.

The lesson I want to share is that I didn’t wait until I fully understood what blogging was, or what it will do for my business. I didn’t wait until things were perfect and everything was in place for me to get started with blogging. I just went ahead and did it…

Now 2 years later, I was able to connect with many prospects and clients, right at the heart, with my blog posts and I have built a site that has a decent ranking on Alexa, that now positions me as someone who can help others incorporate blogging as one of the key strategies to position them and their business for Visibility, Influence and Profits.

My blog is also a place where I showcase my videos and this is truly an extension of who I am and what I offer. This is where people find the real me where they can get a feel for who I am and what I have to offer. This is where my prospects get a small sample of me before they choose to work with me.

My blog is my “home” online while Facebook and Twitter are the “parties” where I pre-qualify those I want to invite to my “home”. In my home, I pre-qualify my guests further – those who are just invited to my backyard and those who will be allowed to have access to the “inner sanctum” of my home.

I believe that choosing not to blog is a huge mistake! Savvy consumers now demand freshness, relevance and currency of content. Your prospects would like to know how consistent and committed and congruent you are with your message.

After all, I know that even children are blogging these days! I figured, if a child can blog, then what’s my excuse? Even our 9-year old son Garret has his own blog! In fact he has 2 blogs now… GemstoneKid.com and TheMartialArtsKid.com.

While his passion has changed and is no longer updating GemstoneKid.com, it was a wonderful experience for him.

Now, almost 3 years and hundreds of blog posts later, my blog has evolved and continues to evolve… My specialized skills have honed into being a Branding and Marketing Strategist and now more than ever, I am an advocate of helping entrepreneurs create an online brand that will take them from invisible best kept secrets to highly visible Trusted Advisors online!

Shortly, you will see the next evolution of The Relational Marketer and it will be quite remarkable and distinctive! Stay tuned… to be notified of our upcoming updates and receive my 10 Free Videos on How To Use Relational Marketing To Grow Your Business, please go to:

My Aunt Emilia… My Heroine

By Emma on December 2, 2011 7 Comments

Three weeks ago, we received news that my Mom’s older sister, my dearest Aunt Emilia (Tiya Milya to us nieces and nephews) came down with pneumonia. At 91 years old, she truly was spunky and energetic despite the fact that she literally stopped eating for weeks on and the doctor just gave her a few days to live.

My Mom lives with me and thank goodness for her iPod touch, she’s able to connect with our super extended family in Marikina City, Philippines – my beloved hometown. That’s when she gets real time updates on the progress of Aunt Emilia – special mention and thanks to Ellen Muriel – De Guzman and Emma de Guzman for keeping my Mom posted on her progress.

It was so sad to see my Mom cry thinking of her sister everyday and how she may never see her again. I then thought about Skype video chat! We immediately set up our computers and connected on Skype! Looking back, why didn’t we think about it early on?

This was a photo taken 3 weeks ago when my Aunt Emilia’s images first appeared on screen… before she even saw my Mom’s image on her monitor.

When my Mom saw her, she cried even louder – she couldn’t believe how tiny she has become. Garrett immediately jumped into the camera and was in awe of seeing my Aunt who shares so much resemblance to my Mom… Garrett kept on telling her “You are so beautiful, Auntie… I love you!”

What was truly touching was when I saw both sisters, reaching out to each other on the screen and started touching the screen to “hold each other’s hands”.

That loving gesture brought a smile on my Aunt’s face! Just look at the difference from the initial photo to the the photo with her aura completely changed and you can see JOY in her eyes! Oh that smile!

Seeing my Aunt Emilia and her relationship with my Mom, reminded me of the deep bond they have for each other and rightfully so.

My Mom is the youngest of 8 children and Aunt Emilia was 11 years older than her. During the World War II when my Mom was 12 years old, the Americans who were fighting against the Japanese Army, accidentally bombed Marikina City and their parents – my grandparents – died in that bombing. I never got to meet them though my Mom always told me that I looked like my Grandma Braulia.

From that point forward, it was my Aunt Emilia who took care of my Mom and stepped up as her Mom and Dad rolled into one person! I can only imagine how a 22 year old can take over as the matriarch for a brood of 8 siblings!

Right there speaks of what courage and faith my Aunt Emilia had. I remember as a young child how generous and open-hearted she was. She would come to our house from time to time to check on my Mom and her kids. Yes, she was very strict and firm yet beloved by many because she has such a great sense of humor. She’s a teacher by heart and worked as a teacher while having to rear 6 children of her own.

What I really remember so vividly from my Aunt Emilia was her love for education and books. I remember when I was in 4th grade, she came to our house with a big brown box full of books from America! Really old and used hardbound books with short stories for children. They were surplus books from their school and she wanted us to have them so we’ll start reading…

That was the beginning of my love affair with books and cultivating a thirst for knowledge. When everyone else played outside, I would stay in my room surrounded by books for hours and feeling the gratitude to her for giving us those books!

I remember when my Uncle Ponce – her husband – passed away probably almost 30 years ago – she would go visit his grave at the cemetery EVERY SINGLE DAY! She did that consistently and without fail for 30 years. I have never seen such dedication, commitment and love… EVER!

Through her inspiration, my life was never the same. It was her who inspired me to gain the love for reading and to this day I kept that love and passion for books. It was through her actions that I learned the love and commitment for family and to my husband. Her life story taught me to be courageous and have faith, against the odds. She truly is one of my most favorite aunts and to this day, she continues to inspire me!

Two weeks ago, her family asked my Mom to fly back to the Philippines and frantically, we booked her on the next flight out. My Mom spent 2 weeks with her and although my Aunt Emilia’s strength started dwindling and she was getting weaker and weaker by the day, it was so wonderful to know that she was surrounded by the love of her grateful family, yes including my Mom.

My Aunt Emilia passed away yesterday and my heart grieves…

I am grieving from sadness yet with joy, knowing that she’s in a much better place… A place that’s free from pain and struggle. It’s so reassuring to know that she is now with her beloved husband my Uncle Ponce and are bound to spend eternity together, hand in hand, living in pure love…

My Aunt Emilia’s life’s purpose has been absolutely served. She lived an absolute full life and has planted so many seeds of greatness among many. I am just one of the many people she has inspired just by living a life of faith, hope and love!

We could only hope that we too are able to find and serve our life’s purpose doing what we love with those whom we love. Through my Aunt Emilia’s inspiration, I found mine and it is my fervent prayer that you too will do whatever it takes to find yours and use that purpose to serve others.

To my Aunt’s Emilia’s family, I love you all and I am right there with you, grieving yet celebrating her life with utmost GRATITUDE.

With Love…

Grateful for Gratitude

By Emma on November 24, 2011 No Comments

The table is set, turkey is in the oven, Emma’s “World Famous” stuffing ingredients are chopped up, Cranberry Orange Relish is simmering, and everything is a go with my Baked Yam, Green Bean Casserole, Creamed Corn and bottles of wine and champagne is chilling nicely.

It’s my 22nd Thanksgiving in the US… Funny, there were times when people greeted me with:
“Happy Thanksgiving to your family in the Philippines!” I remember being a smarty pants, responding to them, “Thanks… but the Pilgrims didn’t really make it to the Philippines!”

As clever as that may seem, we don’t really need to have a pilgrim experience to be grateful. I believe that while Thanksgiving Day is truly special and means so much to so many, I also believe:

GRATITUDE should be part of our daily life – we don’t need to wait for a special occasion to be grateful…

It’s truly sad when I hear some people who are bitter and just have the hardest time finding something to be grateful for. Yes, just like a New Year’s resolution, gratitude somehow finds a way during some of the main seasons in their lives – their birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year, etc.

Gratitude is not as easy as it seems. In my experience, I had to train myself to be grateful. I had to make a constant decision to look at a situation and find something to be grateful for in that very moment.

Gratitude is not simple. It’s much easier to find the bad, to complain and invite people to our pity parties. The truth is, no matter how we think our friends will come to our pity parties, they really don’t care and don’t want to hear it. Most of them are just being polite as they too might decide to have a pity party one day and would want to invite you too!

Today, I am thankful for GRATITUDE. I am grateful for gratitude. For the ability to really find the good in a seemingly bad situation and be able to “pivot” or train my mind and heart to find some sense in what’s going on around me, good or bad, and for the most part really digging for the good… digging for the golden lesson.

Without the ability to be grateful or to even be aware that gratitude exists is equivalent to having no faith and purpose.

Gratitude opens up doors that no one can shut…

Gratitude is your invitation to the banquet table of abundance…

Gratitude enables you to receive so much more of what it is that you’re grateful for…

Gratitude elevates you to a position in your life you never thought possible.

So, on this Thanksgiving Day, I just want to say I am grateful for you my dearest friends, readers and subscribers and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve, inspire and equip you with my life’s experiences that is predominantly borne out of gratitude.

So as you enjoy your festivities and precious time with friends, remember to be GRATEFUL FOR GRATITUDE itself because to have that grateful heart, 24 in 7, 7 days a week is really a gift we must train ourselves to receive and put into use.

What will you commit to doing from now on to be sure that you remain in the state of gratitude?

Would love to hear your Comment and please Share this post and connect with me on Facebook. You can also join our Relational Marketers Community.

The Gold Is There All Along…

By Emma on October 19, 2011 6 Comments

I had a great client session this morning… I am so proud of my client who’s moving forward so rapidly and is so gung-ho and passionate about the clarity of the direction her branding and her business is going.

She said to me: “Emma… I am doing this and that and I am becoming more visible in social media but how come I am not converting people?”

I assured her that she’s not alone… that this truly is one of the missing “gold” pieces that is the most overlooked by most entrepreneurs.

Part of what I coach clients on is what I call their “Marketing Funnel”. Some people call it an “Ascension Model” and some call it a “Sales Mountain” or a “Sales Funnel” this is the 3rd P in my video course “5 Paths To Profits”, called Process.

It’s the area of the funnel that sadly is the most overlooked phase, and that is creating your

PRODUCT

Yes, your very own product. That is the GOLD that has always been there but is normally stepped over.

This is daunting to most people who are starting out because they are so focused in the marketing piece. They are busy with social media, creating videos, attending live events without really fine tuning this very critical component of their Marketing Funnel…

Most of the time, people identify their “Free Offer” or “Ethical Bribe” or the product or service they will offer in exchange for their prospects’ name and email but they are forgetting that a critical part of the progression is their own PRODUCT.

A product can be your own book, video training, your own system but this is different from your free offer because one thing about this product is that this is the product you actually

SELL

That’s right… a product that you SELL…

The missing piece that most marketers fail to put in their puzzle is that they actually need to conceptualize and create a product to sell.

What are you selling? If you don’t have anything to sell, what are you offering? If you’re offering Coaching or Consulting and you’re not getting clients, perhaps it’s time to put your efforts in creating your own product to give your customers a sampling of what you can do for them.

If you don’t have a Product to sell, why not?

Please keep me posted on your progress… Let me know how this post has helped you by sharing this post with your friends and leaving a comment.

Sinbad Sailed The 7 Seas… I Soared Through My 7 C’s”

By Emma on September 26, 2011 3 Comments

"Sinbad Sailed the 7 Seas, I Soared Through the 7 Cs"

A month or so ago, I posted a survey in my beloved The Relational Marketers Group
on Facebook. I asked them this question:

“Which Areas Would You Be Interested In Learning More From at my LIVE
MeetUps?”

I gave them 13 choices and they were encouraged to mix and match and
prioritize. Below is the result of that survey:

1) Facebook Fan Page – 2

2) Info-Product Creation – 5

3) Simplifying Social Media - 1

4) Video Creation - 4

5) Overcoming Fear of Visibility – 1

6) Overcoming Fear of Video = 0

7) Blogging - 2

8 Search Engine Optimization - 4

9) Posturing in Online and Offline Networking - 3

10) Branding - 6

11) Lead Capture Pages - 2

12) Autoresponder/Email Marketing - 3

13) Blueprint to put together all of the above! – 5

Our group has grown since this survey and these results will probably change. I do find it
interesting that the above results are based on the opinion of the most interactive
members of the group and I want to thank them so much for their participation, please find
their names and their websites on the bottom of this post.

What I found interesting is that NONE of them needed help with “Overcoming the Fear of Video” and only 1 checked “Overcoming Fear of Visibility”.

I was right on with my expectation that to have a “Blueprint On How To Put Things Together Is VERY Important but was quite impressed when “Info-Product Creation” also came up as a top priority.

However, I was pleasantly surprised that “Branding” came up as THE TOP PRIORITY for
this group! This is so exciting for me because this is what I am passionate about! To
help entrepreneurs with:

“The 7 Cs of Branding for Visibility, Influence and Profits!

Clarify The Passion You Can Monetize
Create Your Product and Service Offering
Construct Your Marketing Funnel
Communicate Your Brand Message – “The Emma5″
Circulate Your Content Online
Connect At The Heart Convert Prospects To Clients To Relationships For Life
Collaborate With Industry Leaders, Movers and Shakers and Up and Comers!

This is the essence of what clients pay me thousands of dollars for and I have
packaged these in my basic course, “5 Paths to Profits”.

This is the essence of RELATIONAL MARKETING.

Same topics I will be discussing at our Interactive Teleseminars and Webinars
and my upcoming LIVE Event called “S.O.A.R. LIVE LA - Secrets of Astounding
Results, Skyrocket Your Passion and Profits” with my amazing friend,
Kathy Eppley!

Click here and come join us to our S.O.A.R. LIVE LA Event on October 8, 2011 in Santa Monica, CA!

A Fork In The Road…

By Emma on September 20, 2011 2 Comments

I am so excited about my upcoming S.O.A.R. Secrets of Astounding Results- LIVE Event with my dear friend, Kathy Eppley on October 8, 2011 at the JW Marriott in Santa Monica, CA.

However, this past week truly has been one of the busiest weeks I’ve had as an entrepreneur.

I had to make so many choices and I mean it seems like everyday, I was carrying a weighing scale on the pros and cons of each decision.

I mean, how do you balance being a Solopreneur, a Parentpreneur, a Consultant, a Coach, a Brand and Marketing Strategist, a Wife, a Homeschool Teacher, Financial Planner, Corporate CEO/CFO, a Mastermind Member and still have time to plan live events, Meetups, webinars, maintain an active Facebook Group, create marketing campaigns and still look semi-decent on videos that I put out online?

If you’re reading this, you know what I’m talking about as chances are, you too are juggling your time and everyday, you’re making decisions and find yourself always prioritizing.

Forget the fact that I am an introvert functioning in a more extrovert world. Yes, interesting, isn’t it? I started reading this book “The Introvert Advantage” last night and it was quite fascinating! I will share more about that on another post.

My point for this post is this. We will constantly and consistently encounter forks in the road… we will always be faced with decisions to make and the fact is:

NO ONE CAN MAKE A MORE EFFECTIVE DECISION THAT YOU!

Period, end of story.

Sometimes, we are afraid to take full responsibility for our decision that we delegate, even our decisions.

Don’t believe me?

When you’re out with family and friends and they ask you: “Where do you want to eat?” What’s your immediate response?

“You pick… I eat anything except __________”

Why can’t we just say: “Well, right now I am craving Sushi or Italian or French or Chinese…”

I think I know why… it’s either we don’t want to make the wrong choice or we simply want to be respectful or please our friends. That’s perfectly fine but when the decision of where to eat becomes like a tennis match, not only does it become annoying, it clearly shows that no one can make a decision.

I have an amazingly brilliant Coach and his name is Mark Rabbitt… He used to be a Drill Instructor for the U.S. Marines so you can only imagine how he truly helps me commit to things and get things done!

Emma Tiebens and Coach Mark Rabbitt

In the beginning, I had qualms in being coached by such a structured coach. I am rather a “softie” and even if I already know how to commit and get things done, Mark adds that element of enabling me to make a more serious commitment in a very loving yet very stern way that really helps me take action especially when I am faced with “forks in the road”.

Last week, he shared with me this profound statement that is now etched in my heart and I now want to share with you:

“When you’re faced with a fork in the road, just decide on which path you feel is best in the moment and BELIEVE that you will be fully SUPPORTED. People and ideas will MANIFEST along the way….”

Decisions will always be a part of our life. The more we get better at deciding which road to take and believing that no matter which road we take we will be fully supported, the closer we’ll be to living our life’s purpose.

The good news is that we are ALWAYS free to choose and the more comfortable and confident we get with our choices, the more “unstuck” you become. A stalemate is caused by indecision and indecision is making a decision to not decide.

From this point forward, decide that when you’re faced with a fork in the road and have to make a decision, just decide and move forward. You just might discover some pleasant surprises you’ve never even expected along the way…

The Power To Create Your Life… NOW

By Emma on September 16, 2011 No Comments

Michael Stevenson, Emma Tiebens, Mari Smith, Lynn Rose and Ann DeVere

In 2001, my husband and I attended our very first live 2-day Personal Development seminar at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas and it was called “Passion, Profit and Power” by a highly celebrated Speaker and Trainer. What made this a milestone event was the fact that this was the first time we actually paid thousands of dollars to attend this 2-day event which ultimately led to investing into a 180 day Mentorship.

This event 10 years ago was truly life changing for Gary and I. We came home refreshed, optimistic and having a different perspective about life after that weekend.

Why am I sharing this with you? It’s because this event was my VERY first exposure to personal development and what I didn’t realize then, was that during the entire weekend, we were exposed to near-linguistic programming (NLP), embedded commands, hypnotic suggestions and many other strategies and techniques that were absolutely foreign to me, yet literally turned my life around! It raised my consciousness level and the desire to be, do and have more!

That weekend was the catalyst to my commitment to say NO to mediocrity and playing… It was during that weekend when I fully understood that I had

THE POWER TO CREATE MY LIFE… NOW!

Next week, you too will have the opportunity to meet someone I absolutely admire who has an innate ability to really help transform your life! The best part for you? He has given me a few seats worth $1,150 each to gift to my Relational Marketer friends!

Why do I speak so highly of Michael?

Six months ago, there was a name that surfaced on my Facebook Wall…. the name, is

MICHAEL STEVENSON.

I didn’t know much about Michael except that he was amazing at supporting and sharing my posts, photos and videos, he would send me personal FB emails from time to time, and I would also see him support mutual friends.

I checked out his website www.TransformDestiny.com “Turning Dreams To Reality” and I was intrigued by it. Reading about the content of what Michael specializes in reminded me so much about the many mentors I have embraced since 2001. Mentors who also acknowledges the same training and has helped me with:

1) The power of the sub-conscious,
2) Positive self-talk
3) Eliminating self-limiting beliefs.
4) Desiring a better life for themselves and their families
5) Up-leveling my game

I wanted to find out more about Michael and I started reciprocating. It was “Relational Marketing” at its best! We finally met at a live event 3 months ago and I feel as though I have known him forever!

Once I had Michael on my radar, I noticed that all my friends and mentors spoke of him in the highest regard. As I get to know Michael, I began to gain more and more respect for him. I was very impressed that his LIVE weekend events had over 200 people! Then I found out he’s a best selling author of many books, including this one: Unstuck: The Owners Manual for Success!

Unstuck: The Owners Manual For Success

Being a Speaker and Trainer myself, I know what it takes to have people come to your event:

YOU NEED TO PRODUCE RESULTS

There is no denying that Michael’s teachings work. He only shares his personal life experiences that has worked for him and for his many clients. I have spoken to many of his students who have implemented his teachings and have moved on to generate multiple figure income and overcome self limiting beliefs. They all took hold of

THE POWER TO CHANGE THEIR LIFE…. NOW!

How is this possible?

“The Power to Create Your Life… Now! is the pinnacle of over a decade of Michael’s training, experience and wisdom.

This is Michael at his most inspirational, at his most energetic, at his finest.

This is his masterpiece.

This spectacular three-day event will jump-start your life and help you bring about the incredible changes you crave while teaching you how to overcome any obstacle that may stand in your way.

Unlike “motivational seminars,” this event is designed to be the most empowering growth experience of your life. You will walk out with actual tools that you can use immediately and in the future, so you don’t have to come back to get the same high.

When you leave, you’ll live it.”

As part of my “Relational Marketing” promise, I am able to invite you to Mentors and VIP Events I fully recommend. Michael is having his rare “Power to Create Your Life… Now” event on September 23-25, 2011 at the Irvine Marriott and I will be there. I am extremely busy and have limited the events I attend. However Michael is one event I wouldn’t miss for anything. He has become a great friend and a peer, yet I know I will learn a ton from him and his event.

I have very limited seats available to gift you with. Imagine not having to pay the $1,150 that others have paid for to be at his event!

THE POWER TO CREATE YOUR LIFE… NOW

And just as my life turned around in 2001 when I embraced a Mentor who showed me possibilities and taught me specialized techniques and strategies to do so, I invite you to embrace my good friend Michael Stevenson and discover and the secrets and possess:

THE POWER TO CREATE YOUR LIFE… NOW!

I look forward to meeting you there!
