We held the workshop part of the experience at a place called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sparkspace.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sparkspace<\/a>, which I highly recommend in a multitude of ways.&#0160; The second part of the experience for each person who attended is happening now and onto the achieving of a small goal in the next 30 days.<\/p>\n<p>Without a doubt, I was inspired by the attendees last week.&#0160; But I&#39;ve embarked on a 30 day breakthrough plan myself.&#0160; Somehow this makes the process&#0160;much&#0160;richer for me.&#0160; It moves me as a learner and&#0160;as a facilitator.<\/p>\n<p>I understand you might not be able to fully grasp what our 30 Day experience looks like if you haven&#39;t gone through the program, so see our page on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epicliving.com\/web\/index.php?page=total-life-management\" target=\"_blank\">Total Life Management <\/a>to gain more understanding&#0160;and learn what others experienced as well.<\/p>\n<p>Now for the&#0160;vulnerability part:<\/p>\n<p>I have set a 30 day goal is to improve my approach and presentation with prospective&#0160;clients of Epic Living.&#0160; I will do this by engaging them with my heart first and my head second.&#0160; I will measure this by having a trusted advisor\/coach attend 2 business engagements with me to observe my presentations.&#0160; I will also provide examples of heart approaches versus head approaches for that advisor\/coach.&#0160; Doing this&#0160;will help me achieve my big goal of improving Epic Living&#39;s (Me)&#0160;mission performance in the next 90-180 days.<\/p>\n<p>The importance of me sharing this subject with you is to help me (hopefully you too) find a breakthrough.&#0160; If you&#39;re a&#0160;subscriber reading this, a person who has attended an event where I was the speaker, a participant in a workshop I facilitated or some other connection, you know my sincerity and heart delivery.&#0160; My block has been with those who are not currently engaged with me.&#0160; In those settings I have, mistakenly, led with my head.&#0160; Translated, I&#39;ve used old approaches designed to induce credibility and a corporatey persona.&#0160; In the spirit of&#0160;giving me a greater chance to speak from the heart.&#0160; As you can imagine, that way of doing things&#0160;feels awkward, canned and like I&#39;m wearing&#0160;another man&#39;s&#0160;coat.&#0160;<\/p>\n<p>So why did I choose this approach?&#0160; Fear.&#0160; Fear of not making the connection, mostly.&#0160;&#0160;I won&#39;t drone on here because&#0160;I now&#0160;proceed to courage and doing someithing about the block.&#0160; In many ways this is a breakthrough unto itself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week I had the honor and privilege to take a group of people through the Take Time for Your Life 30 Day Breakthrough Plan.&#0160;
