BYB Exclusive February Newsletter!

Happy February!  Did you know that February 23^rd is Banana Bread Day?  Who knew?  I only share that because I love banana bread and am delighted to see it being recognised for its true value. 

How do you like to be recognized and what would be an amazing way for your leadership or your business to get recognized in 2012?

FEBRUARY CLIENT CHALLENGE:

 “Take a picture of a champagne moment!” Big or small a champagne moment is a pre-meditated moment attached to the completion of a goal.  Nothing inspires me more then getting the “you’re never going to believe it” e-mails.  You might be thinking “it’s a little early in 2012 to ask me to start recognizing champagne moments” but that’s precisely the challenge.  Savor and recognize both the small and the big accomplishments!

DEEPEN YOUR COACHING EXPERIENCE:

When you’re given homework or inquiries on your call only commit to that which you believe 110% you will follow through on.  Many people identify INTEGRITY as a top value yet don’t realise how even a small over commitment and lack of follow through can sabotage honoring this value. 

BYB Q1 BOOK CLUB:

THINGS TO MAKE YOU GO HMMMM:

This video pretty much sums up everything I’m passionate about.  I think you’ll agree!  And I hope it continues to motivate you to live your best life... and ride a bike!

“Holstee Manifesto.”

ARE WE CONNECTED ON LINKEDIN?

When I launched BYB in 2008 I sent an invite to all of my contacts to join me on Linkedin.  Probably a 1/3 accepted and a many said “Carolyn what is this?” I think you’ll agree that today it has become the professional social media site to be a part of.  This past month I’ve had a client easily generate a list of new investor leads as well as another client start setting in motion her goal of getting her work profiled in a National Magazine by discovering someone she knows well knows the magazines photographer.  Update your profile today and start cultivating your network!  Not sure how?  Just ask in your upcoming call!

All the best and I look forward to connecting on your next call!

Sincerely

Carolyn de Voest
