IT'S DEFINITELY TIME TO UPLEVEL I have an invitation for Ladies only at the end of this article. :-)

It's definitely time to do the work.

“Employ your time in improving yourself by other men’s writings so that you shall come easily by what others have laboured hard for.” Socrates

What are you doing right now during COVID-19 madness? Hopefully, you are in one of these categories:

1. You know that you aren't catching anything because you are following the guidelines;
2. Caring for your health; and
3. You have the mindset that withstands this negative input.

FACTS

Yes it's a fertile time to uplevel you, your family and your business. With this time at home, may I invite you to look at your options rather than thinking of what can't be done?

With no control over this event, look at how you respond to it. Therein lies the foundation of your outcome when this passes, and it will pass. When looking at the cycles of the evolution of earth and humanity, we are right in line with the natural cycles of events.

UPLEVEL

I have been connecting with people all over the world in the last weeks and a good number of them are taking this time to get their businesses online.

Madeline, BUT I SELL FRUIT. Ok, then start advertising online and figure out a way to deliver that fruit. You can do a lot for no or very little cost.

Jumping in now is about moving through the fear and unfamiliarity of where we are. It may not be easy, yet it IS doable. It depends on your motivation, inspiration, results-driven drive and the ability to ask!!!

Some people have already moved their businesses up online. I get it. We all have different support systems and teams so getting your business online first starts with visibility.

Upleveling now is about visibility.

Mom and Pop shops might want to do a pop-up notification online to let people in the neighborhood know they are available during this time for one customer at a time and that they need to wear masks and gloves. Supply those for them.

Meet them at their car and be certain to follow up with them so that when you open to the public again, they will be the first to know. Just a thought.

It's time. I predicted this would happen and my friends and family didn't have much to say about it saying, "I don't want to know about the online space" and "There will never be great learning online as in-person".

For many reasons face to face and in-person will always be just that. You can still do face to face online.

Ok now I have to learn Zoom or some other visibility platform. Maybe you do have to uplevel your skillset. Take the time to do it or find someone to do it for you.

There is no end to what you can learn online for free. I say go for it.

During all of this I have a gentle reminder that your thinking will greatly influence what you produce whether it be income, great health, new relationships and/or illness, fear and frustration. Frustration and fear may lead to illness.

Put down the chips and TV and do something different. Something you always wondered about. During this time you could have already been certified in a number of "needed skills" so that you could be putting your lil' nose out into the work/job/entrepreneurship spaces.

Skillsets you didn't realize you had

I invite you to write down all the things that you do in a day from making calls, to calendaring, scheduling, writing content, organizing dinner, playing with the kids, creating games for the family, eating nutritionally, creating clean food recipes, working on websites, texting to your friends. YES, texting properly will have a need for something.

How do you text on different devices?

How do elders learn to text and who will teach them?

Take a look at the highlighted words in the paragraph above. Those are all seedlings for different businesses.

Madeline WTF? I'm in a crisis and you're talking about playing with kids. Yes. Here's what I see just in those highlighted words for small businesses that can be done online right now.

1. Virtual Assistant.
2. Calendaring and scheduling for others.
3. Meal creator for busy people.
4. Recipe creator
5. Assisting elders to work devices more easily through online courses.
6. Anything in the IT business, websites, programming and the like are going to blow up and you can be part of that explosion!!!
7. What's the etiquette for texting properly for businesses? You might know and we all want to know. Write out what you do and share that content. There's a business in there.

With so much potential, this is simply a piece. Take one client at a time in your home for cutting hair. The responsibility to stay focused on prevention and execution of that prevention is key.

All of this up-leveling and while it may see to be counter-intuitive and you feel as though you're starting all over again, you're not. You are simply on another step in your life bringing all your knowledge with you.

MINDSET

When you're open to what all of this might lead to you will succeed and success is INEVITABLE. Not everyone wants to be a Millionaire and not everyone feels like traveling the world in a private jet. Your success is what you want it to be. Start now.

Right now, smart simplicity will create incredible steps toward your very near future outcome.

While I can't do this for you, I certainly can show you how. I'm counting on you to tap into your resourcefulness and getting rid of all the crap that's filling your head.

You are ok. You didn't create this. We will get through this just like all the cycles of the earth, time and society from day 1 of our existence to 2020. This is a normal cycle of evolution in life and it's time to be grateful for this cycle.

Will I be here in an hour or a day? Who knows. I came with an expiration date just as you did. None of us know when that is! Look at this with another perspective and you may sleep better, get more done and THRIVE THROUGH this time.

UPLEVEL because this is your time.
