    Take a minute to watch my message for you...

    "I have always grown from my problems and challenges, from the things that don't work out, that's when I've really learned." ~Carol Burnett

    It is so important to recognize the lessons in all your struggles and challenges...or you may continue to make the same mistakes over and over again!

    After each WE Event I take time with our WE Team to discuss what went well, what didn't go so well & what can WE do differently.  It is the only way things continue to get better & better!  I also do this at the end of each day, week, month, year...you get the idea!

    The other thing I try to do is learn from the problems and challenges of others.  Each month join us for Lunch & Learn, a seminar featuring a successful entrepreneur sharing solutions to the struggles & challenges they faced to achieve their success:  WE Event Calendar

    You can see video from our February Lunch & Learn Seminar Featuring Orthodontist Alan Barbakow, Orthodontist & BFF Board President.

    Lastly, be sure to order your copy of THE COMPASS MOVIE Today!

    Also, check out the video of me at The Compass Movie Premiere Party

    Be sure to post your comments below, thanks!

    Enjoy Daily Life,

    Hi there WE Members...It's Nancy Solari from Living Full Out.

    Nancy Solari headshot.jpgI wanted to thank you again for giving me the opportunity to speak at your Association luncheon last Thursday! I had so much fun and was inspired by your stories, your successes, and your warmth and kindness.

    I am so blown away by the women of AofWE that I have decided to extend my special program offer for a LIMITED TIME to AWE members. You are such an amazing group of women and I want to help you reach your goals and dreams for your business, so I am keeping the offer of $497 (or two easy payments of $257) open for just a FEW MORE DAYS!

    That's right! You'll receive my Living Full Out 90-Day Program, which includes the 6-call tele-series, 3 private one-on-one coaching sessions, the e-workbook, and THREE (you heard me!) bonuses just for registering! For more details about this great offer, please feel free to visit: http://becomeasuccessfulwoman.com/sales.

    You get $1,464 of services and gifts all for only $497! (And that's $500 less than what the program would cost normally!)
    We are here to answer your questions and to address your concerns! If you are interested, just reply back to this e-mail and we will get you started on your transformative journey! Be sure to mention that you are an AWE member to take advantage of this special deal!
    Thank you so much for letting me join your association for the day and listening to my story!

    Video Message to YOU from Tera McHugh...

    Thank you so much to everyone that attended our January Business Success Seminar Event!

    It was a wonderful event, I had a great time...I hope you did, too!

    And if you did if you could take a moment right now to visit our WE Member Forum and post your testimonial about WE, maybe the results you have received from your TROIKA's, oh that would be so fabulous!

    Thank you so much & I look forward to connecting with you all again very soon!

    Please let me know if you ever have any questions or suggestions!

    Create yourself a prosperous day,

    Tera McHugh

    First I'd like to thank Christie Gelsomino for being our "official" WE Photographer!!

    Next, I'd like to thank everyone that attended this event (you know who you are) and for connecting, contributing & collaborating!

    Thank you to our amazing WE Team, I couldn't do it without you!!

    WE all learned so much from our Featured WE Expert, Linda Flesichmann of Loan Connectors, she shared tips & solutions for securing credit and keeping or getting that credit score number high! 
    Elaine.jpg
    Nancy Solari.jpgOur Featured Speaker, Nancy Solari of Living Full Out (pictured on left),shared with us her struggles living with Retinitus Pigmentosa (RP), a degenerative eye condition.  Nancy is an inspiration to all of us, she didn't let her condition stop her from accomplishing her goals and has now dedicated her life to helping others!

    Nancy shared with us the six traps women entrepreneurs face in their business and showed us how each of our obstacles can be traced back to a certain mindset.  When you understand what your current mindset is you will then discover how you can avoid the six traps:

    1.  unhealthy competition
    2.  treating your business like a baby not a for-profit company
    3.  making everyone happy in order to succeed
    4.  not knowing the true value of your services
    5.  doing it all yourself
    6.  wearing too many different "hats"

    Nancy also shared with us her 3 step Spectacularly Simple System to overcoming obstacles you face in your life:

    1.  Don't get in the way of yourself.

    2.  Embrace the journey.

    3.  Realize the purpose of your life:  What are you living for?

    When faced with a challenge keep this system in mind to break through those barriers to reach the rewards on the other side!!  Stop being the bottleneck in your business!!!

    The MasterMind Session at this event was wonderful, there was a great deal of sharing going on!!  Our RANDOM TROIKA's are proving to be a HUGE HIT and I am excited that many of you have begun to partner...

    For example,

    pampered_chef.jpgWE Member, Erin Dixon has graciously offered to host a Pampered Chef party at her home for our WE Members, with Consultant, WE Member Stacy Kupfer!

    Wednesday, February 4, 2009 @ 7pm

    WE will have a chance to see Stacy's Pampered Chef "style" in action, as well as, the opportunity to chat & network with other WE Members.  It's sure to be a deliciously fun time...oh and there will be WINE!!!

    RSVP to erin@erinedixon.com - she will provide you with her address & directions!

    OK, so, I had to share this next picture taken during our raffle portion of the "show"!  Now you know I don't take myself too seriously when I can post something like this...

    Tera Hillary.jpg

    I don't know about all of you, but, I had a great time at the event today ; )

    You all are so amazing and I am grateful to be able to know you!!

    Looking forward to meeting with my TROIKA and seeing you all again
    next month for Michael Price discussing
    Breaking the "Poor Economy" Mindset:

    Dear WE Member:

    Pat Benatar.  Mick Jagger.  Paul McCartney.  Johnny Rotten.  Not exactly the people you would look to for marketing advice.  What could they possibly know about growing your business? 

    They’ve never been managed a major corporation.  They’ve never worried about meeting payroll.  It’s crazy to look to them for guidance, right?

    Look at what they have done.  Each one of them rose from complete obscurity to become a music icon.  Just saying their names invokes certain images: Axl, the Guns N’ Roses bad boy.  Benatar, the lady rocker who could kick your butt eight ways to Sunday, and you’d like it.  Jagger’s lips.  McCartney, the “cute” Beatle.  Rotten, the sneering punk.

    They made their own rules as they went along, and in the process, developed world-wide celebrity.

    And isn’t that what you want to accomplish in your business?  Don’t you want to be instantly recognizable?  Don’t you want to be the expert, the go-to person in your field?  When a news story breaks in your industry, don’t you want the media calling you for your opinion?  That’s what the RockStar System For Success Seminar is all about! 

    Maybe you can’t sing a note.
      
    Maybe the only musical instrument you can play is an iPod.  But you can be a RockStar in your business!  RockStars are the best in their business.  They’re known as experts.  They are celebrities in their field.
     
    But becoming a RockStar is not easy.  You’ve got to know the tricks of the trade.  You’ve got to learn how to market yourself effectively.  You need to build up your RockStar mystique.  You must learn how to make yourself stand out in the crowd.
     
    That’s where I come in.  My name is Craig Duswalt.  I’m going to guide you on your journey toward becoming a RockStar.  What do I know about being a RockStar?  Plenty.  I toured with Guns N’ Roses for three years as Axl Rose’s personal manager.  I was also the personal assistant for the group Air Supply.  I’ve watched plenty of rock stars in my time.
     
    I’m also an award-winning copywriter.  The advertising agency I opened was named SCV Small Business of the Year in 2002.  My wife and I own Peak Models & Talent, a modeling and talent agency based in Los Angeles.  Our agency has grown to become a multi-million dollar success story, partly because of the principles from my RockStar System for Success.  And I’m going to give you those same principles in my 3-Day Seminar on February 5, 6 and 7, 2009 at the Hyatt Valencia in Valencia, CA. 
     
    The current price for General Admission to my 3-Day seminar at the HYATT VALENCIA GRAND BALLROOM is only $297. BUT I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU A HOLIDAY DEAL BECAUSE I KNOW MONEY IS TIGHT RIGHT NOW!!!

    IF YOU RESERVE YOUR GENERAL ADMISSION SEAT BEFORE MIDNIGHT ON WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 24, 2008 YOU CAN ENTER THE COUPON CODE - SCV - WHILE YOU'RE CHECKING OUT TO RECEIVE $100 OFF YOUR GENERAL ADMISSION TICKET.  

    YOU WILL THEN BE COMING TO MY 3-DAY SEMINAR THAT WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU RUN YOUR BUSINESS SO YOU GENERATE MORE INCOME FOR ONLY $197 FOR ALL THREE DAYS.  

    HOW IS THAT FOR A DEAL?
     
    AND GET THIS... I JUST BOOKED A REAL LIFE ROCKSTAR TO JOIN US AT THE SEMINAR — DUFF MCKAGAN, Bass Guitarist, Velvet Revolver, former Bass Guitarist, Guns N' Roses.  Duff co-wrote the GNR hits, "Paradise City" and "Civil War", along with numerous others.  

    I will have the pleasure of interviewing Duff, live at the seminar, talking about our days touring together with Guns N' Roses during the mega Use Your Illusion World Tour.  You will get a backstage glimpse of what it was like to be on the road during the biggest tour in the history of rock n' roll, and the wild, and whacky, and very interesting stuff that goes on during a World Tour.
     
    AND THERE'S MORE...

    Other Expert Guest Speakers that will show you entrepreneurial ways to make a ton more money, even during the recession, include:
     
    TOM ANTION - The New Breed of Entrepreneur: How to Become a Multi-Million Dollar Internet Infopreneur!
