I found this amazing woman on twitter yesterday… Someone tweeted about her and I followed and found a Grandmother with Attitude… Ruth Flowers.

She didn’t think her life was over at a certain age, she didn’t accept the limitations placed on her by other people, she’s grabbed life by the horns and is doing exactly what she wants…



The following is from Ruth’s website MamyRock.com

Ruth Flowers, 69-year-old, is the matriarch and the hippest English deejay of our time.

I have had a very lively youth, I used to go to balls all the time, I loved to dance, but then came the old age, pension, but above all boredom… I started looking for something more… One night, my grandson, of whom I’m very close to, celebrated his birthday in a nightclub in London. And he told me that I could join them. When I arrived, the bouncers didn’t let me go inside. It is true that I didn’t really match their usual clients (laughs)… I finely managed to entered… and I was dumbfound…there was such an atmosphere!!! It was so different from the parties I used to go when I was young. There was a real osmosis between the lights and the music, it really drove me!… It made me feel so much younger!

This night shattered my view of things but above all the way I saw my life…I had a lot of free time, I was on pension you know… I talked to my grandson about it, he thought I went mad. Now I think that I am ready to make everybody move their a** on the dancefloor (laughs).

“Indeed, I’d rather sign a contract with a record company than to sign up for the nursing home…” – Ruth Flowers

So my questions to you are… What limitations have been placed on you by other people that you can break?What will you do today to live the life you want?

Are you in Email Overload? You know what I mean… spending a couple of hours a day wading through your inbox, trying to get through to the important emails and finding yourself going down all kinds of “rabbit holes”, finding time ticking away that should have been focused on other things, like product creation, answering student questions and spending quality time with family?
After coming back from the holidays, my first two weeks of 2010 were spent feeling like this so I decided to conduct…

The Email Overload Experiment


Let me know what you think and if this inspires you to outsource your inbox to a fabulous VA or just to get radical and stop the reactivity! So you can focus on growng your business, taking care of yourself and your family!

With this experiment, I want to see how it feels to stay completely away from email, one of my VAs Verna will be adding to our “virtual office space” the things I should look at while she responds to and sets up interview requests, guides students to the forums in Membership areas where I’ll be 3 times a week to answer their specific questions and I communicate with people just via social media marketing tools like Twitter and Facebook… It was scary to give up this much control, but I think I’ve gained several hours a day to create more products and be able to think!

This is a fabulous video to watch when you’re acting like Eeyore (which we all do sometimes!) Some tips from this great video when Dr Pausch appeared on the Oprah show:

1. Always be dreaming… never lose that spirit. “Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you wanted”
2. The brick walls that are in our way are there for a reason, to let us prove how badly we want things.
3. Remember the importance of People vs. Things
4. Decide if you’re a Tigger or an Eeyore. Never underestimate the power of having fun.
5. Work & Play well with others.
6. Show gratitude.
7. Don’t complain, just work harder…

If you lead your life the right way… the dreams will come to you.

Wow! I’m in the middle of creating a video series with Jeff Herring about how business has transformed over the last 12 months… and I came across this video from last Fall… I am completely bowled over by the difference in video quality compared to the high definition videos I’m now producing!

 

The content of this video still applies though, it’s theTop Ten Ways People Disempower themselves (personally & professionally)!

When you;re done watching the video, I’d love to ask you to fill out a quick survey to help Jeff & I with our upcoming (high-definition, schmanty, information-packed and fun) video series…

Thank You in advance!

Here’s my Thanksgiving Gift video I created for my subscribers… It’s all about realizing that no on’es coming to save you and it’s up to each and every one of us to become your own hero! And no matter how many failures you’ve had in the past or how low you may feel at any particular time…

“With Each Failure Lies the Seed of an Equivalent Success” Napoleon Hill

It’s the story of how I picked myself back up after divorce and severe panic attacks wondering what I was going to do…

I learned to become my own best friend again and started doing weekly meeting in my city to help others conquer their fears and empower themselves…

and Harpo Inc ended up calling me for an interview and Oprah liked what I was doing so much that she asked me to mention one of my websites at the end of the interview! 

I didn’t have a website up for what I was doing at the time, but I did have a domain name.. so it flew out of my mouth and I had 6 weeks from the time of the Oprah interview til it actually aired.  So I knew this was a great opportunity!  I got it done and started doing telesminars at Our Law of Attraction Podcast, I made products out of them and began coaching my listeners to do the same!  And now I teach people to get their products out of their heads and turn them into reality!  (yes, that’s me on the horses and those are my Law of Attraction cartoons)
