'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house… Computers were off-- even the mouse. Blogs were packed up… and sent far away Ready to be sent after the holiday. Emails were packaged… and ready to go after the presents and choirs and snow. Conference calls, meetings and clients stuffed away… They can all wait ‘till another day. Because now is the time for friends and good food… hugs and hymns and all things peaceful and good. I'll pick up the pace on Monday you bet… but for my holiday message… This is all you will get! Happy Holidays! With love, Read More
What the “No Goal Setters” Do This Time of Year…
by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta Like most people I guess, I’m excited about the coming of a new year. Clean slates, fresh starts, new opportunities and new people. It’s funny when you’re someone like me – one of those NON-GOAL-SETTERS to see everyone already busy with resolution lists and goal charts. Yeah, that’s not me. I’m more of a ‘take the world as it comes’ kind of gal, and I like it that way. It gives me more freedom to roll with the punches, choose new paths, open new doors and see opportunities where I otherwise might not if I were focused solely on “the Read More

by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta Not long ago I was being interviewed on a teleconference with a large group of sales professionals and the subject of GOAL SETTING came up. (I love when that happens!) It took me back to a time in my life where I did something so empowering for myself, so freeing and believe it or not, something I know to be one of the best decisions I ever made in opening doors to my success... I'll tell you all about it in this excerpt from my leadership interview with Michael Hyatt. Enjoy! Let me know your thoughts! Read More

Motivation — No Pom Poms Required!
by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta Pssst...I’m going to share with you a little “inside secret.” “Motivational?” Wasn’t always my thing. Look, I LOVE what I do – I mean REALLY love it. Getting people fired up and eager to embrace and adopt change in their lives. Watching those “light bulbs” go off when I’ve said just the right thing to get them off of the fence and into an action plan that can change the course of their career or even their life. That’s good stuff – right? But I fought the “motivational” part of it. For a long time. In my mind if you were a “motivational Read More
