Moments: Ah-hah versus Uh-Oh!

~ wings~of~dawn ~ Leave a comment

I love ah-hah moments.

You know, the moments that show up after hours of cross-eyed attempts to gain a glimpse of understanding.

A recent ah-hah took place as I observed a young adult “get” the importance of an applied budget.

 

The uh-ohs are the ah-hahs that show up at three in the morning interrupting a good night of sleep.

For example, ah-hah:  the opportunity to share information during a LinkedIn class that would benefit two military attendees.

Uh-oh:  The class ended nine hours ago! No connect was attempted or made, I stayed in my comfort zone.

Lesson:  Keep awareness alert, risk liabilities, and trust that should such an opportunity presents itself again (and it will) to move toward!

What are your ah-hah versus uh-oh moments?

HOW TO INCREASE THE REVENUE OF YOUR SEMINAR BY 566%

For 10 years, I volunteered as workshop coordinator for attendees of a seminar. My activities and responsibilities included coming up with themes, creating brochures, drafting an email database, listening to feedback on the ideas of the attendees, overcoming obstacles and blending personalities.  For five dollars a person, we provided resourceful keynote speakers to those in transition. By listening to feedback, ideas, connecting and pooling resources, we tripled our attendance from average of 51 to 300 which increased the revenue from the average of $225 to $1500!

Network, network, network, listen to your attendees, pay it forward, backward, every way. Help is a two way street, and sometimes a full-on freeway. Time management, synergy, leadership,  resource-referral, and awareness of your clients’ needs.

I have today began my long dreamed about website, not knowing I’d have the option to “blog.” Given that I am a typo pro doesn’t help.
I see that wordpress will charge me a full month, even though I signed up on May 31, 2014, I will be billed on May 1, 2015 just in time for 30-day deadline!

Back to the Spiderweb, Flashback to Charlotte and viewing life through all the comforts of her home. Tangled looking in the mesh – but still focused on her main loved one. Guess I get the idea.

Young guns. Charlotte’s Web was a best selling hardback book. Giggle it, yEAH.
