Think about who you want to be in 5 years –Hell, even 2 years or LESS, from now – What are you wearing? Where are you living? What are you eating?Who are you spending time with?What kind of work are you doing?How much money are you making? Where and how often are you traveling? HOW are you travelling? First class? Private jet?NOTHING is off limits here.Write about you 2 years from now. Who IS this person?Then, starting today, starting RIGHT NOW –BE THAT PERSON.Before you do anything, ask yourself, is this how $1 Million (or whatever amount of money you want to be making in 2 years) ___ (your name here) would be living/acting/speaking/eating/shopping?Example:You want to buy a new pair of shoes.The ones you like are $500.The ones that are “okay”, are only $200.You go back and forth between the two because you REALLY want the $500 pair. But you can’t get over the price.“Can I really afford it?”“The other shoes are fine, I should just get those.”This is the perfect time to ask yourself, (using your name and money goal), “Is this how $10 million dollar Cassie would shop for new shoes?”.Answer: HELL NAW.And it’s not just the money stuff either, it’s also how you speak, how you act, what you wear, what you eat.To become the person you want to be 2, 5, 10, 15 years from now, you don’t WAIT until it happens, you start acting as if you ALREADY ARE her.And by being this person, doing work you love, all day, every day, you NEVER, not once, EVER consider retirement, because retirement is WORSE than the life you’re living.Now THAT...

I used to think I could do it all on my own – Grow my businessAttract paying clientsWrite amazing contentCreate new programsSell effectively (& actually make money)Write & sell a bookLaunch with immediate success I was so naive. So arrogant. I assumed I had all the answers and didn’t need anyone else messing me up - hahaha!I’ve since learned that YES, techincally I CAN do it on my own – If I never want to sleep. If I want to take YEARS to master my craft, instead of getting pretty up-to-speed with things in just months. If I like waiting ages to get any kind of results.And I also learned that NO, I don’t want to wait. Don’t want to be glued to my laptop 24/7. Don’t want to take years when it can take just months (or less) to get the results I want. So I started hiring mentors. Started buying courses. Started joining programs.Started paying for masterminds. And my results SKY-ROCKETED. Faster than I ever imagined possible. $250,000 in 12 months. $750,000 in 24 months. Over ONE MILLION dollars in 36 months. Results I wouldn’t have achieved in that amount of time had I tried to do everything on my own, like I was so tempted to do. I was cheap. I was so focused on the fact that “I don’t have enough money to hire that coach, buy that program, join that mastermind” - even though my soul was screaming at me, begging me to say YES.Because soul always knows best.CREDIT CARDS SAVED THE DAY FOR ME. Every coach, program, course, mastermind and event that I ever paid for, was paid for with a credit card.I may...

I’ve been called many things in my life. But most of all, I’ve been called irresponsible. Selfish. Delusional. And I’m frequently called a bitch by many. All because I long ago decided to put myself first, and to go after what I want, no matter how “unlikely” it is to happen.I decided that, regardless of what people thought of me, I was going to trust my gut and do the things that felt right for ME. If taking care of ourselves and going after what we desire in life makes us an irresponsible, selfish, delusional bitch, then, I guess what’s just what we are, huh?Because YES, we will always do the things that make us feel most ALIVE, even if others tell us that we’re crazy. We are ambitious AF and have big dreams, and never will we allow others to tell us what we can or can’t accomplish. And YES, we will always take care of ourselves and do things for US that have us feeling AMAZING, even if that makes others uncomfortable. We understand that if we don’t take care of ourselves, we can hardly help others. And YES, we will set big, huge, wildly “unrealistic” goals every damn day of the week. We know what we’re capable of. And we’ve never been “realistic” anyway. 😉And YES, we speak our mind, say what we really think, and share our opinions loudly - what we have to say is VALID and VALUABLE.We don’t care if others disagree. We only care that we stay true to who we are. (And those who don’t like that can STFU and go away. 👋🏻)WE GO AFTER WHAT WE WANT.WE ARE HERE TO...

It’s crazy to me how quickly we give up on ourselves. How quickly we decide “it’s not working, I knew it wouldn’t” – Our shoulders slump, we scream words of frustration (MOTHERFUCKINGSHITBALLSSCUNTBIIIIIIICTHIHATEYOU!!!!.… no? just me?) and we give up completely…At this point, our soul feels crushed. Crumpled up like a ball on the floor, we discard our desire of that thing we didn’t give enough TIME to manifest for us. But had you just stuck with it.. Just kept pushing..Just kept believing..Just kept GOING a little bit longer..I’m willing to bet that by this point today, you’d be enjoying the thing you were so desperately trying to create for yourself back then.Let’s talk sales, since that’s a pretty big subject in this entrepreneurial space, practically all the time! If you know me, you know that I am absolutely OBSESSED with sales . I LOVE to sell. I read books on sales almost daily.I join courses and programs on sales regularly. I watch videos and listen to audio trainings around sales. I hire mentors and we focus primarily on.. you guessed it - sales. I journal around sales every single day.Selling is in my blood. It’s something I enjoy more than almost anything else I do. But it wasn’t always this way.. I used to dread selling. I was afraid of it. I thought it was wrong.Truth was – I was brought up told that selling was taking. If someone gave me $10, they no longer had $10. And even though I had the entrepreneurial spirit inside of me for as far back as I can remember in my childhood, I would often stop myself from selling because I thought that by...

Tough love time?Yeah, me thinks so.You’ve been slacking. Procrastinating. Saying “I’m gonna I’m gonna I’m gonna!” but then not… doin’ the damn thing.Not writing the post. Not sending the email. Not pitching the offer. Not engaging. Not showing the fuck UP, in the way you know you’re meant to. I know.. you’re SO busy. You just have SO much going on right now. I know you have every excuse in the world to not put forth the effort. I know you’re scared. Scared of failure, of saying the wrong thing, of having to do things you don’t really wanna do.I also know that you’ve been pushing so hard so hard so hard, for SO DAMN LONG, and you’re frustrated. That you’re not quite where you wanna be. That you’re not further along than that chick who started her biz after you. That you’re not consistently making the money you used to be making at one point in your business. I know you’re tired. EXHAUSED even. Ready for your turn. Ready for the whole “this gets to be easy” shit that everyone and their dog seems to be preachin’ lately. Ready for the struggle to pack its’ bags and leave you forever. I’m gonna let you on a lil’ secret, okay?The second you surrender to the outcome is the second the outcome slides a bit closer, and closer, and closer still - and soon enoough, is REAL and yours and RIGHT NOW and OMG I DID IT. Instantly. You INSTANTLY shift things that single second you decide to surrender. Wanna know what my manifestation process looks like, in depth? Yes?Okay. 🙂CLARITY. >> Get clear on what is desired. VERY FUCKING CLEAR. Specifics are...
