Can you identify with this scenario? I have averaged maybe two speaking engagements a year and these were not even paid engagements. I had never handled my speaking career in a professional manner. Everything was catch-as-catch can, word-of- mouth, seat of the pants. I had my niche, but I never promoted myself. I never called or emailed to thank a client afterward. I never even kept track of what I'd done for each group that I spoke to.
How will I change it? I decided that if I'm a public speaker and I have a message to share that I need to get serious and be professional about what I'm promoting. I've decided to contact a free local newspaper and ask the editor to publish a story about me. Whew! Big move and a bit scary. An article all about me. Yes, me and what I have to offer. I am ready, I have what it takes and the universe needs to see me back in action. I'll going to check back in six months to evaluate personal my progress.
.More about insight, drive and focus in my next post. I'm off to get another cup of Joe. See you at the meeting.
