Marcia's Dream NoteDear Friends,
Dreams really do come true. Dream Big, Build Your DreamTeamI believe you are only three phone calls away from just about anyone that you need to contact. There are many reasons why others would be interested in participating with you. After all, you're a go-getter with a big dream! Letting others help you is a form of generosity, because you enable them to feel good about contributing to your success. People love to make a difference by helping others. Allow them to easily assist you by learning how to make powerful requests. Get clear about what you need, and ask for what you want. Begin by reviewing your current resources to see who's available to help. Your current resources include everyone you know, every association and organization with which you come in contact, friends of friends, anyone and everyone. Talk to people about your dream. Tell them what it is you're committed to and ask who else they know. Plan to attend group meetings as a non-member, go with your purpose in mind, and be clear about the intended result. Decide in advance what kind of people you want to meet there, what you want to get out of the meeting, and what you want to communicate. Once you're there, you have an opportunity to develop relationships with all kinds of new people; plan to participate and interact with them. Speak your dream from the moment you walk into the room, and you'll be perceived as a dynamic individual, committed to making your dream a reality. If you notice that someone is getting excited about your dream, ask how they would like to participate. You start with a blank slate among new people; capture the energy and input from those encounters. Don't be afraid to call people. If you're not sure what you want to say, write out a couple of points and keep them in front of you, or practice speaking to somebody else. You will find the task less formidable if you break it down into individual components. First, compile a list of the phone numbers and have them in front of you. Then commit to making a specific number of calls each day. Get into action. Sometimes we feel absolutely sure that we cannot get the support we want from the people we need it from most. Look for ways to share your dream and tie it into the other aspects of your life. Ask others to support you, even if it's just by believing in you, and be unstoppable regardless of how they respond; tenacity often yields credibility.

Dream Quote
“The shortcut step for achieving any dream is to share it and inspire others to join you.” ~ Marcia Wieder Dear Marcia, I am a pretty optimistic person but how do you deal with all those negative people who question and challenge you and your dream? T. ************* Dear T– I call these people Doubters. If you have not dealt with your own internal doubt, they can make you question your own dreams. But if you have dealt with your own internal doubt, by contrast, their doubt becomes an opportunity to deepen your own commitment to your dream. So, how do you deal with it? Listen to it. Interview it, hear its wisdom. Your Doubter will give you a list of obstacles and concerns. Wherever there is an obstacle you can design a strategy to manage it. But left unattended or ignored, it can sabotage you. If you are a member of my Dream Circle, be sure to listen to my archived tele-class entitled: Dealing with your Doubt.

When
I last wrote you, I was off to Italy. There is a tradition at the very
beautiful Trevi Fountain that if you throw a coin in the fountain you
will return to Rome. If you throw two coins in you will get married.
Patrick took me there on our first night and suggested we participate.
After we threw our two coins in, I turned to face him and he was holding
a diamond ring. He proposed! I screamed and said yes. Over 100 strangers
applauded. I was totally surprised and it was an amazing way to begin
our trip.
