There’s a lot of talk nowadays on the ability to receive guidance from our intuition, our inner voice and some even call it our inner psychic. So how is one to discern what these all mean and which one would be best for their business?
My personal conviction is that you were born and equipped with all that you need, from birth, to become all that you were designed to be. Your job is to live a life of love, forgiveness and good will so that achieving a life of good fortune comes naturally!

In his Christmas Eve homily, Pope Benedict XVI hit the influential nail on its head when he said, “Conflict in the world stems from the fact that we are locked into our own interests and our desires. For most people, the things of God are not given priority . . . . And so the great majority of us tend to postpone them.” He went on to say, “a path for discovering and appreciating God exists for everyone. It is a path marked with signs.”
Wow! This is what I’m saying about soul influence. (Not that I compare myself to the Pope… we don’t even dress alike.)
But the idea that the path is marked with signs is intriguing . . . and real. Those signs come from the whisperings of a woman’s soul.
Does it matter if you don’t listen to the calling of your soul?
The secret to influence is soul.
We often forget that there’s a divine intelligence, an all-knowing, creative intelligence, that I call the Grand Overall Designer (GOD) that is showing us the way.
That still small whisper is like a radio station we can tune into 24 hours a day.
What we don’t listen to, we can’t express.
God pours soul messages direct to our hearts. These messages are felt as emotions, dreams, visualizations, hunches and feelings.
Because each and every one is designed for good, this love is not only unconditional, it’s infinite. It cannot be thwarted, changed, altered, negated or stopped by human rationalizations, or old fashion ego (insane) thinking.
God’s love is the peace that surpasses all human imagination. We don’t make up these messages, we access them. (Sort of like downloading files from the Internet.)
Check it out. This truth is at the core of every religion.

New Year’s resolutions fizzle because women do not entertain the benefit of the benefit.
What is the benefit of the benefit? And why would that be important to women?
Here’s an illustration of what the ‘benefit of the benefit’ is all about. In 2006, a friend of mine, Mike Green, gave a presentation to a convention of Florida teachers. His talk was about bullying in the school system. Mike explained that the main reason the teachers were attending the talk was to understand the causes and effects of bullying—and to stop it.
Then he went on to explain another, deeper reason that the teachers showed up: so they could restore order and discipline to the classroom.
He further went on to talk about a more profound reason they were there—to return to experiencing their love of teaching.
That was it! The benefit of the benefit of the benefit! Benefit #1 was In 2010, your benefits of the benefits are waiting….
Dale Carnegie had a major influence on my life. When I was 12 years old my father gave me the copy of his book “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” After moving to a new town and switching to a new school, I think dad thought it would be helpful.
It was.
Thanks to my father’s insight, and the “paint-by-numbers” guidance in Carnegie’s book, I learned the art of connecting with kids and making my exchanges with them productive.
Originally published in 1936, How to Win Friends and Influence People is one of the first bestselling self-help books ever written; to date it has sold 15 million copies, has been translated into 17 languages and is distributed in 40 countries worldwide.
Carnegie was a poor farmer’s boy who ultimately found success teaching public speaking.
His first book was called Public Speaking and Influencing Men in Business. It came out in 1913, just a year after Carnegie (who later changed his surname from Carnagey at a time when Andrew Carnegie was a widely revered and recognized name) tapped into the average American’s desire to have more self-confidence.
The Missouri native was an early proponent of the philosophy known in the personal growth field as responsibility assumption. Primarily, responsibility assumption holds that each individual has substantial or total responsibility for the events and circumstances that befalls her in life.
While it’s not new news that each person has at least some role in shaping his experience, responsibility assumption is the DNA understanding in the realm of cause and effect.
What it says is that the individual’s mental contribution to his or her own experience is substantially greater than is normally thought.
This is very important and therefore, very powerful.
Have you heard of “The Secret”? That movie is chockfull of responsibility assumption.
