Cooler temperatures… College football… It’s getting dark earlier… Halloween and Christmas items in the stores… Yep… Fall is coming (or here – depending on where you live). It also means we’re almost in the last quarter of the year. The holidays are coming. Have you checked in on your business to see where you are…
Is your business slow right now? Does it feel like it takes more time and/or energy than it usually does to make a sale? Maybe you’re feeling a bit more “sales resistance” than you’d like. I’m hearing this a lot lately. One of the things I always recommend when I hear this is to go…
Many times, there’s a big difference between doing what’s easy and doing what’s necessary – or doing what will make the biggest change or impact. This is true in life as well as in business. It’s easy to do what’s simple and easy. You can stay in your comfort zone and not much, if anything,…
Dedication… Desire… Determination… I call these the 3 D’s – or Diane’s 3 D’s. There is a fourth that I live by… Can you guess what it is? If you guessed Discipline, you’re right. (And, it should go first, not last) With those three things, you can do almost anything you want to do. If…

I don’t think coaching is all about holding space and asking questions as somebody said the other day… not at all! As a matter of fact, I’d go so far as to say that is a bit off the wall. I can’t imagine Tiger’s Wood’s putting coach, Serena Williams former tennis coach, Steph Curry’s shooting…
I see it all the time. You hire a coach and suddenly you go from wanting a $500,000 a year business to saying you want a $1 Million a year business. Question: Do YOU really want that? Or did you let your coach pressure you into that number? Do you say you want something in…
First, let me tell you this isn’t some slick message designed to trick you or convince you to coach with me…I wouldn’t do that. Instead, I hope you’ll get some wisdom you can use when you’re looking for a coach or even a mastermind…you might event find this information applicable if you’re considering investing in…
Tomorrow will be the first of February…that means the first 31 days of 2019 will be gone and you can never get them back. Not one single second of any day. Take a minute now and ask yourself… Have you been productive (as productive as you want to be)? Are you 1/12 of the way…
