Trusting What You Can Not See
by Sheri McConnell
Excerpted from Smart Women Know Their Why
Faith is a big part of living a successful life and being a successful entrepreneur. My secret is deciding to have faith in myself more than any type of external force. Notice I said the word “decision” because that is where it starts. My journey has taught me that I always intuitively know which direction to head next and when I look to find answers outside of myself, I always end up off the path a bit. It took me until I was well into my thirties to be able to trust others because of not having established trust in any form whatsoever during my childhood. For me, I had to have my own family and connect with the love I had for them to be able to trust myself and others.

Where Do You Fall on the Salesy/Smarty Business Spectrum?
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010
I’ve noticed that every business person/entrepreneur I’ve met falls somewhere on what I call the “Salesy/Smarty Business Spectrum” and it has a significant impact on their future success.
Salesies are the people you see out there who have no problem promoting themselves and their programs constantly.
They can get an idea for a business, launch it and make money very quickly.
Without a healthy dose of smarty thrown in though, they may find it difficult to sustain, evolve and grow.
Smarties, on the other hand, often seem stuck. Lots of skepticism, complaining, and judging from this group.

5 Roadtrip Lessons
Monday, June 28th, 2010
My kids and I are driving from our home in Longmont, CO to our recent past hometown of Hermosa Beach, CA.
We’ll be house sitting in HB for the next three weeks and decided to drive instead of fly so we’d have the car.
Best decision I’ve made in a long time.
I was going to take my mom with us, but when it came time to leave on Saturday, we packed everything up and the car just felt too crowded with all of us.
