Yesterday, I was talking with my good friend John about his business.  He was jazzed because he has connected with a mentor who really gets him.  John has always used coaches and is an open, evolved guy.  He is single, doesn’t have children and works six plus days per week.  His friends and customers always pressure him that he works too much and should focus more on his personal life.  However, he loves his job and is very happy and well balanced.  HE doesn’t feel like he needs to change anything and is very content spending his time building his business.

So, anyway, he’s telling me how excited he is to have connected with such a great inspirational coach and I’m about to say you’re welcome (because I’m always giving him advice whether he asks for it or not). Then he tells me that his inspiration is none other than Donny Deutsch, and his TV show, The Big Idea.  I start laughing as I realize he’s been talking about Donny Deutsch for the last month as if he started dating a new girlfriend.  Seems that Donny gave him permission to work as many hours as he wants and provided a benchmark of other happily thriving, balanced, hard-working business owners.  So, John, thanks for reminding us Six Figure Moms to look for inspiration in all out of the box directions and best of luck. 

And readers, Donny does have some pretty impressive messages so check him out.  Thanks to John and many other folks that have been buzzing about Donny,  I’ve been following him too.  Good stuff.   Who are you all following on the cutting edge these days?
