How to Get Everything You Want in Business and in Life by Having B.A.L.L.S.

Last week I was having coffee with a new acquaintance, "Jen" who just happens to be one of the most successful business women I've ever met. I was sharing one of my crazy manifesting stories when Jen leaned into me, as if she was about to share some juicy bit of gossip and said; "Sandy, you have got such big balls and that's why you get everything you want in business and in life"

Ahhhhhh! I fell backward, mouth wide open and began to laugh hysterically. "What are you talking about?!"

The rest of the day, I couldn't stop thinking about what Jen said and wondering "What does it mean to have 'balls'?" Is that even a good thing?

When I stopped to look at some of the amazing and FUN things that I've experienced in my life, I noticed that often times 'it' required me to step out of my comfort zone- sometimes in a major way.

So I came up with these tips and inspirations gleaned from my new favorite compliment.

How to Step Out of Your Comfort Zone & Find Your B.A.L.L.S. So You Can Get Everything You Want

B = Belief

You must have unshakeable belief in yourself and the World around you. It starts with a vision, and you have to believe that you wouldn't have this vision if you didn't already have everything you need to make it a reality.

A = Authenticity

You must be willing to authentically express yourself, even if it makes people uncomfortable. Be big. Be the Rock Star. Do not make yourself small in order to make others like you or to fit in. When you allow yourself to shine in your fabulousness, it will spill over onto those around you and lift them up.

L = Let's Get Loud

These are the lyrics to Jennifer Lopez's song "let's get loud", "You want to live your life, you got to live it all the way and don't you waste it. There's a feeling that could be so very sweet you gotta taste it. You gotta do it your way, you gotta prove it, you gotta mean what you say- you know what we're here for! Let's Get Loud". There are words to live, love and laugh by.

L = Licious-ness

This is that Unique-ness that is only YOU. When you are clear in your Unique Essence, there is no competition. There is only one of you. When I turned 40, something happened & my "Sandy-ness" became "Sandy-liciousness." You must express your most delicious & fabulous self in every moment!

S = Super-Hero

You must be the super-hero of your life. There is no knight-in-shining-armor coming to save you. Imagine that your life is a movie and YOU are the hero, the super-hero. Your life is waiting to be written, you might as well make it a blockbuster hit! BE that which you desire. Starting now..... Go!

How Having B.A.L.L.S. Helped Me Get Everything I Wanted in Business and in Life

Having B.A.L.L.S. has enabled me to write a best-selling book, land an agent and get a top publisher. Having B.A.L.L.S. helped me become an international speaker who steps out onto stages in front of thousands of people. Having B.A.L.L.S. has helped me create a 6-figure information marketing and coaching empire that allows me to work from home (often in my pj's) doing what I love with my husband and family by my side.

What could having B.A.L.L.S. do for you?

Would having B.A.L.L.S. help your business grow faster? Would B.A.L.L.S. increase your bank account? Your client list? Your circle of influence?

You bet it would! It's time to take action, right now. Go do something that scares you just a little. It is your responsibility to live your dreams! It is your responsibility to bring your expression, your Unique Essence, your B.A.L.L.S. to the world. It's the only way you will get everything you want in business and in life.

So, go get 'em, baby!

Re: Charge what you're worth - [quote="Tami Szabo":292ze3jd]People will pay you what you ask. Very few will ever up the price. You are the one who decided what you are worth. The key is that we believe our services are worth the price we are asking.[/quote:292ze3jd] Hi Tami, You're absolutely right. In "Think and Grow Rich", Jessie B. Rittenhouse says "For Life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must bear the task. I worked for a menial's hire Only to learn, dismayed , That any wage I had asked of Life, Life would have willingly paid" (Napoleon Hill 35). I think the same can be said when setting prices on eBay or Craigslist, especially when people are trying to haggle you.
