Entrepreneurs with ADHD: Work with Your ADHD Tendencies, Not Against Them

May 21, 2010

Did you know that people with ADHD are 300% more likely to start their own business than someone who doesn’t have ADHD?
300%! That’s a lot.
And because ADHD is under diagnosed in the adult population, there are probably many more entrepreneurs with ADHD who aren’t included in that percentage.
I had no idea how prevalent ADHD and [...]

May 7, 2010

I did a teleclass back in March with a friend and colleague, Jacqueline Sinfield of UntappedBrilliance.com, an ADHD expert and coach, who is also participating in Connie Green’s 30-Day Blogging Challenge with me.

You’re a Genius!

April 19, 2010

If you’re anything like me, there are times in your business life when you feel like anything but a genius. Certain aspects of your business flummox you, over and over, each time you think of them. There are things you think you’ll never learn, don’t understand, can’t put together. They make you feel stupid, useless, and [...]

Get Out of the Weeds!

April 16, 2010

The entrepreneur’s path is rarely a straight line: we go off on detours, get sidetracked, bump into obstacles, and sometimes even back up a little as we move towards the goals for our businesses. But it’s really important not to get “stuck in the weeds.”
Because of the traits we have that enable us to be [...]

5 Strategies for Finding Focus

January 21, 2010

When you were in your last J-O-B, you had built-in accountability. Someone, probably your boss, told you what to do, or at least gave you guidance. Someone was there if you got stuck, or lost your confidence, or needed direction. That also gave you focus.
Who do you go to now?
As a business owner, you’re supposed [...]

What to Do About Bully Clients

July 29, 2009

I was talking with a coaching client yesterday about how to deal with icky clients who don’t want to pay their bills after the fact. You know, the ones who’ve already had the use of your service but who now decide it “didn’t deliver” for some vague reason. Like the girl who wants to return [...]

7 Strategies to Clobber Fear

June 30, 2009

Everyone’s been afraid these past few months, to some extent. If you don’t have at least a bit of fear, then maybe you’ve been living under a rock. Or you are a rock.

Why Breakthrough Business?

Because when you started your business, you had a passion for something, and it probably wasn't the mechanics of the day-to-day management and operations of your company. You just wanted to do your THING!

And now, as your company is growing, it's getting harder and harder to find the time to get back to that "thing," or maybe even to remember what that "thing" was like. Your business may have swallowed you up!

But where are the resources for the little guy, the entrepreneur who's serious about business and could be doing a bang-up job if only she (you) could get away from the "stuff," but can't seem to because everyone needs you, nothing seems to get done without you (or at least it doesn't get done correctly), and there aren't enough hours in the day to get to all the things that end up, for some reason, on YOUR desk?

The answer is, there aren't any. Until Breakthrough Business.
