The #1 Reason People Either Fail or Succeed

The #1 Reason People Either Fail or Succeed

Posted by Connie Podesta

COMMUNICATION:  More Important Than EVER in Our Frantic 24/7 World By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Communication used to be my #1 topic.  But not anymore. Now, people are lulled by the flashy, new, quirky “it” topics-- Innovation.  Collaboration.  Integration.  Synergy. And the list goes on.  These topics definitely sounds trendier than just the simple old-school communication topic.  But let’s be honest.  The flashiest topics in the world still depend on one thing—YOUR ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE your ideas, thoughts, feelings, and concerns in a way that allows people to Read More

Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta on Change

Change is Not a Choice – It’s a REALITY

Change is Not a Choice – It’s a REALITY

Posted by Connie Podesta

by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta One of the topics I’m asked to talk about most these days is CHANGE. How to manage it, cope with it and more importantly leverage it in a world that’s spinning faster than is comfortable for most. That’s why I wanted to reach out to some of my wonderful friends and share a few secrets I’ve learned along the way with their readers. After all – we’re all in this together right? Why not help each other out? All right – if you’re ready, let’s get down to it… Let’s face it -- Business as usual IS over. The game has changed and the rules are different. Read More

Is Success An Option for YOU?

Is Success An Option for YOU?

Posted by Connie Podesta

by Motivational Speaker and Executive Coach Connie Podesta I just hung up the phone with a coaching client who made this statement:  “Connie, I am comfortable selling anything…except myself.  That part – is HARD.”  As much as I understood her feelings, I was also very concerned about her future success and job security.  (FYI—she gave me permission to use “her story” for this blog.  I NEVER share secrets from my clients.) I’ll share with you what I shared with “Mary.”  There has never been a more for us to SELL OURSELVES, validate our worth and demonstrate how much we bring value to the Read More

DANGER: Apathy is Contagious

DANGER: Apathy is Contagious

Posted by Connie Podesta

by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta Listen...Indifferent and apathetic people are JUST as dangerous to your life as negative people. Apathy is CONTAGIOUS! You can just feel it, can't you? Those unmotivated,don't-care folks just suck the energy and life right out of you. You can sense mediocrity settling in like a dense fog or wet blanket. Don't be afraid to say, "Oh No! Not around me! I've got things to do & goals to reach!" It's not enough anymore to just stay away from "negative" people -- you've got to keep those ho-hum buddies at bay too. If what you want is to STANDOUT, get Read More

Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta on Resolutions

Resolutions?

Resolutions?

Posted by Connie Podesta

Not for Me! by Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta This year I made just one New Year's resolution--that I would NOT make any New Year's resolutions.  Why?  Because resolutions are usually about what I'm doing wrong (and want to make right) or what I need to do (and haven't been doing) or what I've been putting off (and need to start doing NOW!).  In other words, resolutions--although they sound positive and strong--are really focusing on what we didn't do, failed to do, wanted to do, need to do, or should do.  ENOUGH, I said to myself.  To be honest, I'm tired of setting goals that keep my Read More
