Ep111: How to Break Free When You’ve Run Aground

March 31, 2016 by Beth Buelow 2 Comments

Ep111 Show Notes: How to Break Free When You've Gone Aground About This Episode I’ve been feeling a bit stuck lately, mostly in business, but a little in life. My entire existence during 2014 and 2015 was geared towards one thing: the publication process of my book, “The Introvert Entrepreneur.” Everything was focused on the launch date of Nov 3, 2015. And now that the date has come and gone, … [Read more...]

When You Don’t Click with the Clique

March 22, 2014 by Beth Buelow 29 Comments

We've all felt it. Even if there's a place in our lives where we're on the "inside" of the group, we've all experienced many more places where we're on the outside looking in. For me, I'm on the inside when I'm with a group of my coaching colleagues with whom I've interacted over the years. Sometimes, but not always, I feel that way when I'm around other entrepreneurs. But more often than not, … [Read more...]

Is Your Mojo Stalled By FOMO?

November 8, 2013 by Beth Buelow 10 Comments

A few weeks ago, I was conducting an Insight Strategy Session with a client. She was concerned about whether she was offering the right services. Here's a piece of the conversation: Her: "I got a call from someone who was interested in working with me. But she was asking if I could offer something I really don't do." Me: "How close is she to your ideal client?" Her: "Well, she's something of a … [Read more...]

Tabatha Takes Over The Introvert Entrepreneur

December 27, 2011 by Beth Buelow 7 Comments

  She's bitchy, ballsy and brash. She's Tabatha, and she's taking over. I might be a little late to the party, but I've just discovered "Tabatha's Salon Takeover" (to be relaunched on Jan 10 as "Tabatha Takes Over"), and I'm hooked. Tabatha Coffey is almost the complete opposite of me in every respect (although, when I was around 7 or 8, I had worked out a basic business plan and was … [Read more...]

Why I’ll Never Say “Just Do It” Ever Again

July 28, 2010 by Beth Buelow 2 Comments

Of all the marketing slogans in modern times, the phrase "Just Do It" has infiltrated our culture more thoroughly than any other. I'm talking complete assimilation. Like Xerox and Google have become verbs that mean "copy" and "search," "Just Do It" has transcended Nike and is generally used to mean "get off your butt and take action." And what's wrong with that? Really, I wouldn't be at all … [Read more...]

Give Your Fear the Finger!

June 15, 2010 by Beth Buelow Leave a Comment

OK - you're probably thinking, "Beth, really!? The finger?!? Seriously?? That's so not... YOU!" I blame this one on my friend, Leif. He's my partner-in-crime for our "Improv for Introverts" workshop. This blog's title was one of several possible tag lines we had brainstormed for the workshop. Rather than decide on the tag ourselves, we offered up a variety of ideas for feedback from our first … [Read more...]

Love Is All You Need

April 27, 2010 by Beth Buelow 3 Comments

It will be difficult. It's going to be risky. There will be family drama. I can't afford it. Do any of these statements sound familiar? I know they're familiar to me! These are just a few of the 18 excuses Wayne Dyer outlines in his recent book, Excuses Begone!. Each excuse keeps us from taking action and pushing through fear, uncertainty and doubt. We’ve all probably used each of the excuses … [Read more...]

Resistance Is Futile

March 31, 2010 by Beth Buelow Leave a Comment

Do you ever "push" when the door says "pull"? A few weeks ago, a client made the very astute observation that when it came to finding his calling in life, it felt like he'd been pushing on the door that said "pull." How often have we done that ourselves? We encounter a door and we push and push, wondering why it won't open. We decide it's the door's fault and feel momentarily frustrated before … [Read more...]

When A Horse Meets An Overachiever

October 26, 2009 by Beth Buelow Leave a Comment

Confession time: I have some major attachment issues. Attachment - to an outcome, an agenda, a certain way of doing something - has been a theme throughout my life. Over the past year, I've made friends with my attachment tendencies. I recognize when it's happening, and I release and trust the process. At least, I thought I was. Last week, I took an afternoon off and spent time horsing … [Read more...]

Success on Easy Street

October 12, 2009 by Beth Buelow Leave a Comment

Taking the "easy way" is not a particularly popular approach to success and life. Consider this quote: "The path of least resistance is the path of the loser" (H.G. Wells) When I tried to find a contrasting quote that stated the virtues of a life lived with ease, I came up empty-handed. Not one to force the matter, I'm going to rely on my own intuition and experience: forcing things - applying … [Read more...]
