Em on Self-Employment: Introducing Peace Journeys
http://emselfemployment.blogspot.com/2009/04/introducing-peace-journeys.html
I have begun a journey to bring together several of my passions: spirituality, hiking, teaching, and coaching. I have now officially started Peace Journeys, LLC. At the risk of sounding like an infomercial, I'd like to share some details. Finally, for people who are on a journey of peace and contentment, I am focusing my coaching in the realm of spiritual integrity. This is where the rubber meets the road. So, you are really clear on your spiritual belief system; in fact, you have language for it...Next ...

Em on Self-Employment: Does Alone Have to Be Lonely?
http://emselfemployment.blogspot.com/2009/02/does-alone-have-to-be-lonely.html
Does Alone Have to Be Lonely? As I work on my big ideas for 2009, I am finding that starting something new can be a lonely venture. The good news is that there are not a lot of other people doing what I want to do. The bad news is that there are not a lot of other people doing what I want to do. That means no pro forma model to follow, and few obvious people with whom I might partner. Maybe this is the most significant challenge for me in shifting from working for someone else to working for myself- the ...

Em on Self-Employment: December 2008
http://emselfemployment.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
The Subjectivity of Big. This quote came across my desk today:. Set a goal to achieve something that is so big, so exhilarating that it excites you and scares you at the same time. It must be a goal that is so appealing, so much in line with your spiritual core, that you can't get it out of your mind. If you do not get chills when you set a goal, you're not setting big enough goals." - Bob Proctor. When I read this, some part of me shouts, "Amen, Brother! The good news for me is that "big" is subjective&...

Em on Self-Employment: Making It Happen or Allowing It to Unfold?
http://emselfemployment.blogspot.com/2009/01/making-it-happen-or-llowing-it-to.html
Making It Happen or Allowing It to Unfold? As I work on my big ideas for 2009, I often find myself caught in a tug of war between making something happen and allowing it to unfold. Throughout my life, I have often been rewarded for making things happen. I completed schoolwork, joined committees, held leadership roles. I was busy, busy, busy. And the emotional and financial rewards followed. As I walk this path of following my heart and creating my destiny, it often feels like I am pushing on a string....

Em on Self-Employment: In Pursuit of Big
http://emselfemployment.blogspot.com/2009/01/in-pursuit-of-big.html
In Pursuit of Big. So I've got some Big Plans for 2009. Maybe you do, too. As I stated in my previous post, I believe that big. Is subjective. In other words, only I get to decide what's big for me. But by definition, something is big for me if it's bigger than anything I've done before. And that means to pursue the big thing, I must step into the Unknown. And that step generates Fear of the Unknown. Which means that some loud voice in my head says, "Don't go there! Stay here where it's familiar and safe!
