Fireside Chat With Lisa Haneberg

Lisa Haneberg at Management Craft interviewed me for her latest Fireside Chat. It was a blast to talk to Lisa and to talk about my book The 100% Factor and also my business Bock's Office Transformational Consulting.

Head on over to Lisa's website - the interview is available as a podcast for download or just to listen to. You'll want to check out Lisa's other resources including her books (I've pre-ordered her latest one, Two Weeks to a Breakthrough and have her others, too).

Thanks again, Lisa!

Breakthrough on the Horizon

So, I've just been inspired (yet again) by Lisa Haneberg's upcoming book (and current blog) called Two Weeks to a Breakthrough. In her current post she talks about how breakthroughs are not just business as usual - they are like turbocharged surges. She says it's more like A to D or A to G or A to R, but not A to B. She says "breakthroughs can be wee surges forward, but they are surges." I'm reminded of how I need to play bigger - take bigger risks, both with my business and the rest of my life.

Interestingly enough, yesterday I got an e-mail from Phil telling me about an upcoming Oprah episode where she'll feature The Secret, and she's looking for stories about how The Secret has changed your life. So, that's my intention.

I filled out the form and submitted it and got the notification that they had received it.

I also found a cool web tool called Intention Engine which helped me create an intention and affirmations to actually use what I've learned from The Secret to manifest my intention to meet Oprah. I invited my posse of friends and advisors from Fargo to think about how each of us might tell Oprah about how The Secret has affected all of our lives and our work. Things are brewing here in Fargo ... and Oprah needs to know about it!
