My Muse
Life’s
funny
isn’t
it?
It’s
so
clear
that
we
create
our
circumstances.
We
like
to
blame
external
factors,
but
it
seems
to
me
if
we
are
honest
with
ourselves
and
prepared
to
accept
responsibility
we
can
see
that
all
our
results
are
down
to
us
and
us
alone.
Where
we
focus
produces
results.
Where
we
do
not
focus
brings
an
absence
of
results.
It’s
so
obvious,
and
yet
I
found
that
this
month
it
hit
me
again
where
it
hurts,
in
the
wallet!
I
ran
a
personal
development
workshop
on
October
16th,
for
which
I
spent
a
lot
of
time
and
effort
in
preparing.
It
went
very
well
and
I
received
excellent
feedback
from
the
delegates.
However,
with
all
the
focus
on
that
day,
I
didn’t
focus
on
my
marketing
for
coaching
clients.
Guess
what?
A
serious
drop
off
in
new
clients
over
the
last
3
months.
Great
lessons
for
me
here
about
giving
appropriate
focus
to
something,
and
also
ensuring
that
I do
the
regular
important
stuff
as
well.
Being
the
personality
type
that
I
am,
I am
attracted
to
new
exciting
things
above
what
could
be
considered
‘mundane’.
When
the
mundane
produces
your
income,
you
need
to
be
careful!
Is
this
syndrome
familiar
to
you?
Are
you
better
at
starting
new
projects
than
finishing
them?
Before
it
costs
you,
why
not
have
a
sample
coaching
session
to
keep
you
on
track?
It’s
no
cost
no
obligation,
and
it
might
just
keep
your
wallet
full!
My
News
Do
you
find
that
sometimes
you
can
meet
someone
who
you
get
on
so
well
with
that
within
moments
of
meeting
you
can
almost
finish
off
each
other’s
sentences?
And
other
people
when
you
say
the
same
thing
completely
misunderstand
what
you
are
saying?
That’s
because
we
all
have
a
communication
style,
and
people
who
share
styles
have
generally
better
communication
than
people
across
styles.
In
business,
if
you
have
communications
with
colleagues
with
whom
you
need
to
get
agreement,
or
clients
you
want
to
buy
from
you,
or
suppliers
you
want
to
get
things
done
by,
you
need
to
communicate
in
their
communications
style.
So
you
get
the
result
you
want.
In
my
new
course,
The
Business
of
Communication,
you
will
discover
what
your
style
is,
and
the
characteristics
of
the
other
styles.
You
will
then
learn
how
to
recognise
other
people’s
style
and
most
importantly,
how
to
talk
to
them
in
their
style
(not
your
style)
so
that
you
get
the
results
you
want.
