It is hard!
I am going to give a simple truth. Attaining your goals is hard. I mean real hard. I have discovered that in this process of developing a speaking and book business that is all based on helping people that it is hard. I believe people do want to help, but it is hard to break in. The doors are cracked but not wide open. People are busier than ever to take time to see what you have. Here is one thing that I do believe- anything worth doing is usually not easy. So I keep writing , I keep making phone calls and I keep doing what I believe is my calling.
