Let’s get real. I want to ask you…
Are people listening to what you say?
Do they pay attention?
Do they respond to your posts or stories?
Here’s an important tip in building your impact. BE AUTHENTIC. Do what you say… and promote yourself AS YOU!
Problem is — nowadays, so many of us resort to an “easy way” to represent our brand. It’s so easy to use stock photos.
I was told you can now have someone else write your blog.
You can even use artificial intelligence robots to speak for you.
So — how do prospects really get to know who YOU are?
The facts are simple. People connect with authentic photos and real people… Even if you’re not perfectly comfortable on camera…
because they relate to you.
In some political circles, authenticity is becoming rare. We all know of people with a lack of integrity.
That’s why — when YOU speak from your heart… with your REAL stories, you’re building trust.
You don’t need stock pictures. Use real pictures that share your story. As you build trust, you’re also reinforcing credibility.
People want to be connected with the REAL YOU!
In the above image, I shared the banner of a favorite past interview. I was delighted to interview my friend and business colleague, Sandy Mosetick, Founder of Cue College, with her high-achieving, deaf daughter, Rachel McAnallen, who now is a leader at the National Cued Speech Association.
We also had two interpreters — a Cued Speech transliterator AND a Sign language Interpreter.
As far as I know, no one else has done an interview to this extent about the power of Cued Speech, in a way where both deaf and hearing people could understand every word.
We attracted close to a thousand viewers, and people still love watching this program.
Why? Because their stories are told from the heart.

To make yourself stand out from the crowd, BE YOURSELF!
You’ll make yourself unforgettable.
To Your Success,

I was re-listening to a Les Brown audio recording this morning, and every word touched my heart. He speaks about having faith, belief and perseverance in his dreams until he made his dreams come true.
One of his messages is the title for this blog – “Follow Your Heart – Not The Herd.”
What’s in YOUR heart?
What do you want to do to make a difference?
What’s your dream?
Most of us never have been asked, “What’s your dream?” It’s important to consider because we only have so much time on this planet.
In our brief time together, I want to encourage you to step outside your comfort zone today. Do something that takes you forward on the path towards your dreams. When you do that, you’re stepping into your greatness.
I believe we’re all put on earth for a reason. It’s our job to discover what our mission is… and then choose to move through our fears and live with faith.
It’s a lesson that I learned – over and over again – especially after taking 20 years to get my children’s story, “Dancing With Tex” into publication… which became an award-winning, best-selling book.
One of my dreams is bringing out more positive stories into the world, and I’d like to shine a light on your good work.
To make that happen, I’m creating an anthology, “The Difference Makers: True Stories of Superstar Leaders Uplifting Our World.”
Twenty-four people will be selected to be a part of this exciting project, which will shine a light on those who are empowering, inspiring and transforming the lives of others. The world NEEDS more uplifting stories, would you agree?
Learn more at: https://greatlegacystories.com
You can also pass along this information and recommend someone. I’m looking for just 24 leaders — those with a cause in their heart and a passion to do good in our world.
No matter what you decide, remember – you DO have greatness within you.
“What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”
I believe in you!
To Your Success,
Lynn

In your own way, each of you are making a difference, and I’m grateful to have connected with many of you personally — sharing your light, your joy, your compassion.
As time moves by, days becomes even more precious. We all have limited time to do what we want while on earth. That’s why it’s important, to step into your greatness.
Recognize this: we can choose to make a bigger difference by committing to our vision… to ongoing learning… to facing tomorrow with faith over fear. Nothing is more compelling than creating and sharing your stories.

P.S. Timeless wisdom from writer, A.A. Milne, author of Winnie The Pooh:
You can’t stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
– Pooh, “Pooh’s Little Instruction Book”
(Reflection by blog writer, Stephanie Vermillion)
As Pooh “notes” in his little instruction book, life is about more than cozying up in our favorite corners or staying in our safe spaces to avoid the unknown. Putting ourselves out there leads to new experiences, important lessons, and valuable friendships we’d never form staying safe at home. There’s a dazzling, enriching world just waiting beyond our comfort zones, if we’re brave enough to leave our corner of the forest.
