Be Fiercely Unstoppable

by Leave a Comment

Greetings,

It’s time to be strong and courageous. No more waiting.

Zig Ziglar said, “You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.” Can you relate?

How many of you have goals and dreams you want to achieve? I didn’t know speaking was one of mine. We all have a story to share. Let your voice be heard.

I decided to let my voice be heard. It may not be polished and perfected yet, but my message is authentic and vulnerable. May my message impact many lives.

What are you pursuing or holding back in doing? No more fear or self-doubt. Be fiercely unstoppable. People are waiting for you to step up and be heard, whatever that looks like for you. Dip your toe in and tune in to many amazing speakers. I am privileged to be one of them.

I invite you to join this community of like-minded people working to grow their businesses and sharing strategies and methods that work.

Are you an entrepreneur or want to be? You may be an author, speaker, coach, copywriter, branding expert, software developer, web designer, or personal chef. The point is that you’re the one who makes all of the decisions for your business. That can be a lot of pressure sometimes.

You still have time to virtually attend The Fiercely Unstoppable Entrepreneur Summit this weekend. I am speaking about The LORI Factor on May 1 at 9:15am EST. This event is hosted by Dr. Elizabeth Clamon.

It would be plum pleasing pleasure to have you there. Get your complimentary ticket here:  https://bit.ly/LoriSummitMay2

Much Love and Success to you,
Lori

LIVE IN THE MOMENT:  A MICRO-MOMENT

by Leave a Comment

 

You are in the middle of a task when a question pops into your mind. There is an urgent need to know the answer at that moment. That’s when you immediately search the answer typically on your phone or computer to learn, discover, or buy something.

What you just experienced is a micro-moment. Maybe you want information about a product or a person; you go online. Quick online searching for personal and business information is a frequent occurrence nowadays.

Micro-moments are beneficial. The content and answers are at your fingertips. Enter key words in an online search engine and poof, there you go.

Imagine if your business was being searched by potential customers and clients. You can become the go-to place for the information, products, and services they need.

Give the people what they want. Once they find you, keep them engaged. How? Provide ongoing, up-to-date content. This can take you to the next level.

Question:  Did I hear you say you don’t have time to create more content?

Answer:  Outsource a copywriter.

Delegating this task frees up your time to do what you do best. It’s worth the investment. You will profit and serve many overall when you look at the big picture.

There are many excellent freelance copywriters available to fill your need. Take a micro-moment and search for a writer who will create content on your topic.

Better yet, I could be your answer. I provide copywriting services. Let’s discover if I am the one for you.

Thanks for reading. Was this helpful? Leave a comment and then go back to whatever you were doing.

THE DAY THAT CHANGED THE WORLD

by Leave a Comment

 

What day came to mind for you? Was it when the world was locked down due to the pandemic?

Consider this significant day instead, Resurrection Day. People die every day due to a variety of situations and sicknesses.

There is hope. You don’t have to feel defeated or depressed. Despite difficult circumstances, loss, and lack, there is good news.

It is resurrection weekend as I write this. The Easter message isn’t about bunnies and chocolate. However, the chocolate is a bonus, especially dark chocolate. The message is new life.

 

Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead. The resurrection of Jesus was the death of death; we can live beyond the grave. We get to enjoy our lives here on earth in the meantime. Before you take a dirt nap, make sure you bless everyone with the gifts and talents that were put in you for a purpose. Shocking but true.

 

 

The Word of God says in 1 John 3:2, “Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.”

If you are a believer, this is good news. Your loved ones who died, if they were believers and you are too, you will see them again. Think about it, they aren’t just a part of your past, they will also be part of your future.

Look at your life now. Reflect and resurrect your dreams. It is the season of spring. Spring to life. Make this a new beginning. Wipe the slate clean. Get a fresh vision of the new you. Most people know they can do more and be more. Write down your vision, goals, and dreams.

Let God breathe new life into you. It’s not too late. Know this: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Be grateful, have faith, and celebrate not only this Resurrection Day, but every day of your life. Hold your loved ones close. Make memories. Treasure every moment. Leave a legacy.

Spread the Good News. Flood the gates of heaven. If you haven’t experienced a true, personal God encounter, all you have to do is ask the Creator to reveal himself to you. We all need a savior. There is no greater love. You get to choose. Now you know the way, the truth, and the life. Let Jesus be your GPS. Your journeys and destinations will be the best.

What I know is I once was lost and let go of God. That caused intense pain, destruction, and hurt to me and many others. God didn’t give up on me even when I gave up on myself. Since then, I have forgiven myself, reinvented myself, and am back in the arms of the One who created me. I encourage you to live the life you were born to live.

Take the next step. Write your story. Speak your story. Evaluate and discover what you want your life to look like. I can show you how to get there. Message me for more details. I appreciate you. I celebrate you. Thanks for being here.

Happy Easter!

 

Love and Blessings,

The Power of FOCUS

by Leave a Comment

You get what you focus on. You’ve heard that advice, right?

It reminds us that, to begin living the life we really want, we have to start doing those things that will get us there.

There was a time my life was extremely out of balance. All I could see were my struggles and didn’t have any solutions. It kept me stuck. Focusing on the struggles kept me in a state of hopelessness and defeat. I had to stand up inside myself and be determined to find a better way. I knew the life I was living wasn’t meant for me. I took one step and then another and kept going. Sometimes I fell back and then I got back up and didn’t give up on myself, my dreams, and the life I truly desire.

Maybe you’re not where you want to be yet, but at least we are not where we used to be. It’s never too late to live the life you were born to live. The good news is you don’t have to figure it out and do it all on your own.

Now I am a Certified Oola Life Coach. I help clients determine what’s not working for them in the areas of fitness, finance, field (career), family, faith, friends and fun – then correct those stressors and bring about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security they need to be happy, balanced and growing.

So what could the OolaLife look like for you?

 

I’m challenging you to decide, then focus on getting this life you really want.

Let’s Get Started: Decide What You Want

Have you ever thought about the lifestyle, activities, wealth, longevity, family relationships and other parts of a fantastic life that YOU want?

If you haven’t, that’s the first place to start. Why? Because in order to get what you want, you have to KNOW what you want. If you’re going to focus your time and energy, it’s got to be awesome and a major life improvement for you. For instance, do you want to . . .

Fitness: Be date-night ready with tons of energy?

Finance: Eliminate all debt and have money to spare?

Family: Have a rockin’ good marriage + amazing kids, too?

Field: Find a dream job or start a business you love?

Faith: Start an exciting new faith-based project?

Friends: Find new friends and mentors who believe in you?

Fun: Crush those bucket-list adventures you’ve dreamed of?

Whatever inspires you, why not share it below? (But hey, don’t reveal super-personal details!)

To help you achieve your own OolaLife, I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy – The OolaGuys – to privately coach you and support you via a TRANSFORMATION Program designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Click here to get started. I am glad I took my first step on the journey to transformation. You will be glad you did too. I believe in you and want to see you win.

Much Love,

A Day of Celebration

by Leave a Comment

As I write this, today is my son’s birthday. Joseph David born November 8th. He and his brother were the best gifts I ever received. He is destined for greatness.

I am talking about one of the 7 F’s of Oola–Family.

Family is of high value to me. I am thankful I got to spend time with my son and daughter-in-law today. They add so much meaning to my life. I am blessed.

What’s Oola?  It’s a state of awesomeness when your life is balanced and growing in 7 key areas of life (Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith, Friends, and Fun).

Today’s birthday celebration added another “F” of Oola–Fun. It’s important to take time for fun. Fun with family was a double blessing. In fact, it was a beautiful fall day beaming with sunshine and we cooked on the grill. I love the taste of food cooked on charcoal. It was completed with a sweet treat. What a lovely day!

The number 8 is significant. It’s the meaning of new beginnings and renewal. What new things are happening in your life? Or what new beginnings are you hoping to see? What’s important to you?

The flow of number 8 represents the infinity symbol. Let your life flow naturally in the direction you desire. It won’t be a straight line, but a path with some detours. See the detours as adventures that bring you to unexpected places. Those places are just where you are meant to be. Take the risk of doing new things. You never know what you may discover about yourself.

When you look at the 7 key areas of your life that I mentioned above, how are you doing? Which areas are flowing and growing, and which ones are unbalanced and slowing you down? We all have struggles and challenges. Together, we can help each other get in a better place.

Think of each “F” as a spoke on a wheel. Some may be broken or have a hitch right now. Your wheel doesn’t roll smoothly, does it? I have a framework I can guide you through. It starts with where you are now and shows you how to get where you want to be.

It will get you rolling down your desired path.

Ready, Set, Go! Here is a free gift to start your transformation adventure:  http://bit.ly/3stepTransform

When you’re ready to shift into a higher gear, go here:  https://www.liveoola.com/?ref=4e7de7 Let’s ride down the highway together.

I celebrate you. Remember, you have greatness in you. Do what you came here to do. Let me know how things are going and how I can help. Keep in touch.

Much Love,

Lori

You Rather Not Write, Right?

by Leave a Comment

What should I write?

Everyone has different likes and dislikes. I like to write, but not everyone does. Does writing provoke joy or stress for you? Maybe you just don’t have the time, or you don’t know what to say. If writing isn’t one of your strengths, then find someone who is gifted in that area.

Content creation can be mind boggling and time consuming. However, you need to get your message out there. Your services and products need to get visibility. What you have is what people need, but if no one knows about it then no one wins.

How can I help you fill in the blanks to get your thoughts flowing to write emails, blog posts, or social media posts? Would it be helpful if you had a template where you literally fill in the blanks to get your creative juices flowing? Or would you rather hand it off for someone else to do?

I know coaches, speakers, authors, and business owners want to spend their time doing what they do best. It helps lighten their load to delegate the tasks they don’t enjoy or don’t have time to do. The investment is well worth the return.

Creating the right atmosphere makes all the difference. For example, since I am a writer my favorite place to write is by the water. I created a tagline of Lori’s Stories by the Water. It’s all part of The LORI Factor.

Today, I want to talk about the “I” in The LORI Factor. “I” is for INVEST in yourself. Look at your goals and dreams. Decide if how you’re spending your time is serving you well. Is it giving you the freedom to present your greatness and gifts to the world? Or are you getting bogged down by the extra tasks that are draining you and eating up too much time?

Think about your Goals

I help people lighten the load. First and foremost, I am a writer and author. There are things I need to do behind the scenes to write books and blogs like choose a topic, research, edit, and proofread, for example.

Imagine re-purposing your speeches, audios, or videos into a guide, eBook, or workbook. That could add huge value to your audience. Your clients and customers will come back for more.

A key component is seeing the value in with whom you decide to co-create. Everyone wants to be valued and appreciated, but many still want “the blue light special” deal. I had a potential client who needed my services and I even asked about his budget. I gave him a proposal below his budget, and he said that was way more than he could afford. Really? Okay, no problem.

Sow into quality people. It will be worth it. Many people want others to buy into what they have but are not willing to purchase quality from others. Keep that in mind. Remember that U.S. based business owners are not able to offer third-world country rates. What’s it worth to you? Of course, it’s your choice. All I know is we reap what we sow.

I would be delighted to help you reap amazing results. Share your needs with me and let’s see if working together would be a good fit. Message me or text my text only number:  844-394-4798.

Here’s to your success and may all your dreams come true.

In Gratitude,

Lori
