Did you learn anything in Sedona?

Hello dear readers of this blog

I am back from a weekend in Sedona - no, not for pleasure, I was there as a guest of Debbie Allen and Patricia Drain from the Maximizing Success organization. A few years ago I had attended an event in Phoenix which set me on the track I have been on ever since. At the time I got fascinated by  Laural Langemeier and her teachings. I jumped into one of her coaching programs and became friends with my coach, Barbara Galyen. From both of them I learned how to structure AMC Consulting LLC and what to do with the finances.


Then it was off to find clients and I did not too bad. Our company is growing and we are on the verge of creating an e-commerce presence in addition to our off-line endeavors. Going to Sedona to attend Debbie and Patricia’s event was just what the doctor ordered.
I learned something form every speaker and got many useful ideas. I also connected with a number of very interesting people, some of which can potentially help AMC LLC into a much more prosperous future.

You might ask yourself: “Why is he telling us this and what does it have to do with leadership, coaching, personal development, etc.?
For me it has everything to do with it. If I learned one special thing this weekend, it was this:

You got to surround yourself with people who are better then you, have achieved more then you, and can help you get to where they already are!

Doing it in Sedona has an additional benefit. The surroundings are amazing, the area is known for its amazing energy qualities, and a life balance and business development with all lie minded individuals get’s your juices flowing and the inner energy through the roof. I am full of excitement, energy, drive to move forward and ready to take the next step. That’s what 2 ½ days can do.

If you have never done it before, and you either have a business, work in a good business, or want to become your won boss, visit one of the events that Maximizing Success, or Gina Gaudio-Graves offer. You can also first try a free event with Laural Langemeier, if you are looking for life changing advice. Either way, if the short days of fall and winter start getting to you and your energy level is getting lower and lower, don’t let you followers, co-workers, and family members suffer. Take action and attend an event that gives you new ideas and moves you forward.

Oh yea, I also learned something else. Simple people like me can become co-authors with famous and extremely successful people. You will hear more about it in the future and at some point get an opportunity to purchase the book one of my stories is going to be published in. Steven E makes it happen and he will help me in the next 8-10 months. So much for now.

To your success

Axel Meierhoefer, President AMC LLC

Hi Axel:

I couldn’t agree with you more and thank you for the recommendation! As you know, Sedona has been a miraculous place for me (quite literally) and the rejuvenating energy it offered literally changed my life. (You can see the full story at http://www.abundantpositivity.com .) Whenever I have an opportunity to attend a business workshop or seminar in that area, I never miss it!

My next event will be in New Orleans this coming April. We’re working on the final date with the hotel right now, but I will certainly let you know as soon as it is confirmed sometime in the next week or so. I chose the location in hopes that the incredible energy of the group that attends the event will leave a positive impact in a city that so desperately needs it.

In fact, I’m even working on setting something up the day after the event that would allow those who want to stay an extra day to participate in rejuvenating the city in some way. I know it’s only a small gesture, but if each seminar host in only our industry were to do that just once, that alone would be enough to have a major impact on New Orleans’ recovery.

I’m hoping that my upcoming event will lead by example and alllow others to follow with similar assistance.

Attending events is so important at both a business and personal level. They not only help you grow in your expertise, help to build business relationships, and provide the skills necessary to progress more successfully, they also help to rekindle your passion for your business or career at the same time.

Every person in business for himself should be attending as many events as possible each year. At a minimum, 2 to 4 events (every 3 to 4 months) will help you to always stay at the top of your game.

Attending seminars was how I launched my business as a Joint Venture Broker. Without attending those events, I would never have had the contacts, skills, or resources to become successful in that business.

I encourage each of your readers to follow your excellent example and attend seminars on a regular basis. You should consider encouraging them to do so by setting up small, intimate get-togethers when you are attending as well!

I look forward to seeing you at my next event in New Orleans. Perhaps you’ll bring some of your subscribers with you?

To Your Abundant Success!

Gina Gaudio-Graves
