Question: Does that make your message any less meaningless?
Heck no 
?
It’s not about vanity metrics (numbers) it’s about calling the right people that I you are aiming at to their highest self.
?Your message is not for everyone
Most of the scholars, musicians were only fully appreciated when they die (don’t worry mum this isn’t a cry for help 
?)
See if you notice the fear in your life through my experiences with fear: My fear convinced me that I needed to be more of an “expert” My fear convinced me that the way I speak wasn’t good enough and that I needed diction lessons before I had the audacity to speak in front of a crowd My fear told me that the way I look wasn’t good enough. Because of my fear I was constantly doubting myself, I was dimming my light Over thinking. I was focused on my grammar. Focused on my diction. So focused that I forgot about what was important. So what was important? My message was important! Here is the thing… If you’re talking to the right person then they will grab the right nuggets of information so that you see more participation. This is regardless if they pick up what you’re putting down…today, tomorrow…or 2 years from now! Imagine if there was something you wanted so badly that you stopped at nothing to get it? Could you imagine if you woke up every morning and went to bed every night totally obsessed with making it happen? Imagine if you didn’t get it? Would you stop going for it? “The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream.” ― Les Brown Don’t stop, you are closer than you think to having, everything you’ve ever imagined Don’t let fear stop you from getting what you want! Don’t let a little word like false evidence appearing real (F.E.AR) stop you from living a big life. Don’t give it so much much power that you hate your life so much, that it stops you from what you’ve imagined your life could be
‼️Never stop speaking YOUR truth, someone is waiting to hear from you. When you have something you believe in state it because people don’t need you to agree with them.
No one like a yes man/woman. 
?
People want you to challenge their thinking, which is not talking at them but talking with them. So start to challenge their thinking by giving them a different viewpoint.
Be open to creating dialogue for a two-way conversation, after all, we didn’t come to our version of truth by accident we got there by experiencing life, feeling life and hearing life.
Your message means something, so go out there and spread your personal branding message.
?Stop Eating ?What People Are Feeding You ? ? 7 Days of Sales Mastery Day 2️⃣ https://t.co/xGLj3wBpee

Can you believe these are the words people use when it comes to the word sales? You would have thought you said you said something outrageous like you don’t like cats.
Back in the day…You simply took action and went over to someone, started a conversation (shock horror). And then you found some synergy and a handshake meant you started your business relationship.
Back in the day…You weren’t thought of as charismatic just because you could talk to anyone (I mean come on people that trait is standard).
Back in the day…You weren’t thought of as bold just because you asked for the sale over the phone (really dude?)
Now we are told to nurture our leads (erm we was always nurturing).
Now we have become people that have gone from being bold enough to ask questions and find out what the deal is, to skirting around the issue and feeling shamed when we finally pluck up the courage to ask for the sale.
Now instead of talking to 100 people a day over the phone about how your solution can help them and pick up on social cues to customise the conversation. We now talk to 1000’s of people about their problems via video with kid gloves and make assumptions about their circumstances almost like we are trying to be their bad friend.
Yes bad friend!
Relationships in sales isn’t about being the bad friend who doesn’t tell them they have food on their mouth from lunch or spinach in their teeth. Real relationships in sales is telling people hey, you have spinach in your teeth now let’s do something about it, unapologetically.
Sales are simple, it’s built on the foundation of relationships, information gathering and providing customised value, but somehow some of us have allowed the new tools to mess with our process. And our processes have a knock on effect on our results.
To be clear: If we are not being productive than our sales will suffer!
Let me back up my thoughts with actual facts, according to the latest article in the financial times
The productivity of Britain’s workers, measured by their output per hour, fell 0.1 per cent in the second quarter after a 0.5 per cent fall in the first. Workers are slightly less productive than they were in 2007, confirming a so-called “lost decade” for productivity. Economists do not fully understand why Britain’s productivity growth has faltered since the financial crisis. Other countries have also suffered a slowdown, but the problem has been particularly acute in the UK, where workers are about 23 and 27 per cent less productive than their French and German counterparts, respectively.Now I am not here to trump economists (after all I only studied in for a year at Brunel University). But the stats probably don’t even begin to dive deep into the stats for people that work from home, MLM, self-employed, teams that have no structure…I could go on but I think you know the picture I am painting on the canvas. So what can be done to keep your productivity high?
So there we are action, self-awareness, social media & inclusive meetings will help you increase your productivity, so you don’t become one of those people that are in the lost decade in productivity.
Want strategies on to stay focused or an actual framework to stop boring meetings so that they are more productive, maybe you want to streamline your processes/systems so you can increase your sales?

Do you ever wish you could change your mindset to achieve your goals? Good news: you can, by using affirmations and afformations. Affirmations are powerful statements that help improve your mindset, while afformations take it a step further by turning these statements into questions. Ready to unlock your potential and create affirmations that actually work? Keep reading to learn the best techniques for crafting effective affirmations and how to enhance them with afformations.
Affirmations are positive statements that you repeat to yourself, with the goal of replacing negative or limiting beliefs with empowering ones. These statements can be about anything, from your self-worth to your career goals. They are typically short and easy to remember, and are often written in the present tense.
Affirmations can be a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation. By repeating positive statements to yourself on a regular basis, you can begin to change the way you think and feel about yourself, your life and the world around you. This can lead to increased confidence, motivation, and a more positive outlook on life.
While affirmations can be a powerful tool for personal transformation, there are some common issues that people may encounter when trying to use them effectively. One of the biggest issues is that people may not believe the affirmations they are repeating, which can make them feel like a waste of time. Another issue is that people may not be using the right affirmations for their specific needs or goals.
To overcome these issues, it’s important to choose affirmations that are specific, realistic, and meaningful to you. It’s also important to repeat your affirmations regularly, and to use them in conjunction with other personal growth practices, such as meditation or journaling.
Do you ever find yourself struggling to believe the affirmations you repeat to yourself? If so, you may want to try using afformations instead.
Afformations are a type of self-talk that involves asking yourself empowering questions. Unlike affirmations, which are statements that you repeat to yourself, afformations are phrased as questions that prompt your brain to search for evidence to support the positive assumption being made.
For example, instead of saying “I am confident”, an afformation would be “Why am I so confident?” This prompts your brain to search for evidence to support your confidence, rather than feeling like you are lying to yourself with a statement that you don’t believe.
The main difference between afformations and affirmations is the way they are phrased. Affirmations are statements that are repeated to yourself, often in the present tense, with the goal of replacing negative self-talk with positive self-talk.
Afformations, on the other hand, are phrased as questions that prompt your brain to search for evidence to support the positive assumption being made. This can be especially helpful for people who struggle with feeling like affirmations are not believable or effective.
With afformations, you are essentially programming your brain to look for evidence that supports the positive beliefs you want to have about yourself, rather than simply telling yourself something that you may not believe to be true.
You may have heard of affirmations, but have you heard of afformations? Afformations are similar to affirmations in that they are positive statements you repeat to yourself to change your mindset and attract positive outcomes. However, what sets afformations apart is that they are framed as a question. This creates a more powerful effect on your subconscious mind, as it is more likely to seek out solutions and answers to a question than a statement.
The first step in creating effective afformations is to identify the problem you want to solve. What is holding you back? What negative thought patterns do you have? Once you have identified the problem, write it down.
Next, turn the problem into a question. For example, if your problem is “I am not confident,” rephrase it as “Why am I so confident?” This turns the focus onto finding a solution rather than dwelling on the problem.
Now it’s time to add empowering phrases to your afformation. These are positive statements that will help you believe in yourself and your ability to find a solution. For example, you could add “I am capable” or “I am worthy” to your afformation.
Make sure to use present tense and positive language in your afformations. This helps to reprogram your subconscious mind and create a more positive outlook. For example, instead of saying “I will be confident,” say “I am confident.”
Keep your afformation short and specific. This makes it easier to remember and repeat throughout the day. For example, “Why am I so confident when speaking in public?”
Finally, repeat your afformations regularly. Set aside time each day to say them out loud or write them down. The more you repeat them, the more they will become ingrained in your subconscious mind.
By following these steps, you can create effective afformations that will help you overcome negative thought patterns and attract positive outcomes.
Creating affirmations that work can be challenging, but afformations are a powerful tool that can help you shift your mindset and achieve your goals. Here are some examples of afformations that you can use to improve your health, wealth, relationships, and career.
Health afformations can help you focus on your well-being and make positive changes to your lifestyle. By asking why and how questions, you can encourage your mind to find solutions and create a healthier version of yourself.
Wealth afformations can help you improve your financial situation and attract more money into your life. By asking why and how questions, you can focus on the positive aspects of your financial situation and create a mindset of abundance and prosperity.
Relationship afformations can help you improve your connections with others and attract positive people into your life. By asking why and how questions, you can focus on the positive aspects of your relationships and create a mindset of love and appreciation.
Career afformations can help you improve your professional life and achieve your career goals. By asking why and how questions, you can focus on the positive aspects of your career and create a mindset of success and achievement.
You may have heard of affirmations as a way to improve your mindset and achieve your goals. But have you heard of afformations? Afformations are a newer approach to self-improvement that involve asking yourself empowering questions instead of making positive statements. While many people have found success with afformations, there are also some reasons why they may not work for everyone.
One of the key aspects of afformations is asking yourself empowering questions that focus on what you want to achieve. However, if you’re not asking the right questions, you may not see the results you want. For example, if you’re trying to lose weight, asking yourself “Why am I always so hungry?” may not be as effective as asking “Why do I make healthy choices for my body?”
Like any habit or practice, afformations require consistency in order to see results. If you only use them sporadically or forget to incorporate them into your daily routine, you may not see the same benefits as someone who uses them consistently. Make sure to set aside time each day to use afformations and make them a regular part of your routine.
Afformations are all about empowering yourself and believing that you can achieve your goals. If you don’t truly believe in yourself or your ability to achieve what you want, afformations may not work as well. It’s important to work on building your self-confidence and belief in yourself in order to see the full benefits of afformations.
While afformations can be powerful in helping you shift your mindset and beliefs, they’re not a substitute for taking action towards your goals. If you’re not taking tangible steps towards what you want to achieve, afformations may not be as effective. Make sure to combine afformations with action in order to see the best results.
Creating affirmations that work for you can be a powerful tool in achieving your goals and improving your mindset. When you combine this using the technique of “afformations”, you can shift your focus from negative self-talk to positive self-talk and reprogram your subconscious mind. Remember to make your afformations specific, positive, and in the present tense to align your thoughts with your desired outcome. Additionally, using visualization and repetition can help to reinforce your affirmations and make them more effective. With practice and consistency, you can create afformations that will support you in becoming the best version of yourself. So go ahead, give it a try, and see the positive changes that will come your way!
Tinder (yes Tinder lol)
Even accepted a request from a random guy on Facebook (I don’t just add random people, I checked out his profile).
However, I set boundaries and similar to considering working with a potential client, if they are flakey I don’t give second chances. Here’s my thinking, if you can’t be trusted with the small things like showing up, how can you be trusted with the big things?
When people show you who they are, believe them ?
But make your choice from love, not fear, because the other option is not really an option at all
Ruth-Ellen xx
P.S.
Opting into that freebie offer and hoping it solves all your problems is not a sales strategy that comes from a place of fear too. The fear of not knowing enough. Hun, you know loads!
Listening to another generalised webinar, Livestream or group training programme that doesn’t get specific is not a sales strategy.
Obsessing over whether something is wrong with you or something is wrong about your business and then wondering if something is wrong with you again is not a sales strategy.
The difference between a business that thrives and one that dies is being aware of what is going on in your own head. If your head is not in the game then your business will be affected.

I would NEVER have performed burlesque before.
? I used to be the girl that would listen to a partner who told her to go change because according to him what she was wearing didn’t look good.
? I would be the girl that would be in tears if a pitch meeting went bad. I would be the girl that would go out with douches that would say if you lost a little bit of weight you would be a 10.
? Now I’m that girl that is grateful for the people that she has met, that have left and are coming into her life.
? I am the girl that fails forward but loves herself regardless. The girl that has generated over £120 million pounds in new business sales for companies like Epson, HP and Expedia group. So my question to you is…
? Who are you? What are you doing to step outside of your comfort zone and generate more confidence?
