She saw my offers as disjointed and unconnected. Of course, I see the connection, but she doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Just to give you a little backstory \u2026<\/p>\n<p>When I lost my multi-six figure business literally overnight due to Google changes, I was left to reinvent myself. To be honest, I wasn\u2019t exactly sure what that was supposed to look like. I doubt there are many people whose careers became obsolete overnight who immediately assess a market and instantly create a thriving new business.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last three year&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.createawow.com\" target=\"_blank\">I have consulted people on book publishing<\/a> <\/strong>(having written\/published 25 books I know the process inside out). I still consult people on book publishing and<strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marniemarcus.com\/unplugged\/incomenow\" target=\"_blank\">information product creation<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marniemarcus.com\/services\/one-and-done.php\" target=\"_blank\">I\u2019ve consulted people on business<\/a><\/strong>. I have 25, going on 26 years as an entrepreneur and have actually been offering business\u00ad-tech consulting for over 20 years.<\/li>\n<li>I obtained my SimplyHealed<sup>TM<\/sup> Certification before my business setback happened because I wanted to help entrepreneurs with mindset. As I consulted clients, I became very frustrated when clients couldn\u2019t move forward because of emotional and mental blocks that held them captive. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/marniepehrson.com\/energy-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\">SimplyHealed gave me a way to help them swiftly make progress<\/a>.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Recently, I announced a 6-step system I used to find the man of my dreams. I decided to offer this because I had so many people telling me I should. And I&#8217;m trying to do what I tell my students&#8230; &#8220;let your story lead the way.&#8221; I\u2019m not a therapist, and I don\u2019t claim to be a relationship expert, but I did learn a lot about what to do and what not to do. I used the SimplyHealed Method<sup>TM<\/sup> to work on myself and clear past traumas and limiting beliefs that tripped me up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bottom line, this person who sent me a critical email accused me of lacking integrity because I have offered this variety of services and products over the last three years. She\u00a0accused me of \u201cdoing anything to make a buck.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I am totally aware that I\u2019ve been tweaking and adapting. \u00a0I know that when you aren\u2019t clear about what you offer, there\u2019s no way for your prospective clients to figure out what you\u2019re offering.<\/p>\n<p>The fact this person couldn\u2019t see the connection in my offerings hit a nerve with my own fears and frustrations with the process of tweaking and adapting to find what people need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019d been pushing that fear down and ignoring it, but this person forced it to the surface<\/strong>. I&#8217;m publicly thanking this person for her\u00a0criticism because it allowed me to address something important that could be sabotaging my success.<\/p>\n<p>I think you may have experienced similar feelings about yourself. When you put yourself out there (or are thinking of doing so), it\u2019s rare to succeed right out of the box.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to let those inner voices (and perhaps outer ones) tell you that you are a fraud or that you are a flake because you have to try so many things to find what works. Or maybe you\u2019re concerned you will come across as lacking integrity because you have so many different interests and are good at a variety of things.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I want to assure you that you are not a flake or a fraud.<\/strong> If you\u2019re like most of my readers or clients, you are highly creative. You possess diverse talents. You could go in a lot of directions successfully.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/marniemarcus.com\/unplugged\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/businessisabout.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-3812\" src=\"http:\/\/marniemarcus.com\/unplugged\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/businessisabout.jpg\" alt=\"business is about\" width=\"491\" height=\"352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marniekuhns.com\/unplugged\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/businessisabout.jpg 491w, https:\/\/marniekuhns.com\/unplugged\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/businessisabout-300x215.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 491px) 100vw, 491px\" \/><\/a>Business is all about testing, tweaking and adapting.<\/strong> It\u2019s about experimenting and seeing what works and what doesn\u2019t.
