UPCOMING PRESENTATIONS AND WORKSHOPS:

FEBRUARY-  Theme for February: Conquering Obstacles to Success
This month the theme for our Aspyrre Community workshops is “Recognizing and Overcoming Obstacles to Success”.  In each session we will review the pyramid model of obstacles to success, and clarify what it takes to be aligned at each level of the pyramid.  Then we will do a deep dive into a particular obstacle so that you can understand it more thoroughly and learn some great tools to manage and eventually eliminate it, resulting in less distraction and more rapid progress towards your goals.

Class 1:
Facing Your Fears & the Panic-Elation Cycle- (Tele-class)
Friday, February 5th- 12:00noon to 1:00m pacific time on the telephone

In this class we’ll focus on fear, and the emotional rollercoaster that shows up when you are working to make big changes in your life.  The biggest fear is often, “what if I fail”, or “what if I run out of resources before I succeed?”  But the experience of this fear is more extreme, something like, “what if I destroy my entire family and way of life to chase after something that is really just a silly personal indulgence?”  In the class we will talk about ways to stay grounded so you can mitigate your risks and assess your progress in a more tangible way.  Much of what we discuss will build on the “learn, plan, act” model discussed in the Values Based Goal Setting Classes.  This tele-class is open to Aspyrre Community members and clients only.

 
Class 2:
Conquering Obstacles to Success- (In-Person)
Wednesday, February 10th- 9:00am to 12:00noon at Chapman’s Brandman Campus, Irvine

At this professional development meeting we will do a three hour workshop on the obstacles pyramid, and dive deeply into the key drivers of motivation.  You will have an opportunity to identify the two or three things that slow you down personally and get behind the pattern to the inner conflicts that drive it.  We’ll walk through a step by step process that allows you to identify your individual needs and then choose how you want to address what you discover.  In some cases just the new awareness by itself will increase your energy and allow you to move forward with more clarity.  In other cases you may want to add an action plan that is new and complimentary to your current goals.  As always, when we do exercises that bring personal insight, you will have the opportunity to share with the group or keep your thoughts to yourself.  This is a powerful workshop that busts downs barriers and widens the door to success.  

 

This workshop is open to the public for $75.  Payment can be made through paypal using a paypal account or credit card by pressing the button below:

Class 3:
Review & Progress Check on our Values-Based Goals - (Tele-class)
Friday, February 26th- 12:00noon to 1:00pm pacific time on the telephone

In this class we’ll go back to the basics by looking at our goals, reviewing the material from the values-based goal setting class, and assessing how we have each progressed over the past month.  In this tele-class, material will be customized to the needs of the participants.  In the first part of the teleclass we’ll have a 20 minute training and overview of the material, and then we will use the rest of our time to apply it to our individual situations.  Usually we have time to work with three or four people on the call, so there is no pressure to come to the call with something to share.  The experience of being a “fly on the wall” and listening to others resolve issues and conflicts with their goals is powerful because it allows us to see a situation with fresh eyes and an outside perspective.   We usually wrap up the call with all sharing the gems they got from listening to the applied situations.  Usually this call runs one hour, but occasionally I will go an extra 15 minutes if we are in a good discussion.  We welcome you for however long you can spend and it is never a problem if you need to jump off early.  This tele-class is open to Aspyrre Community members and clients only.
 

UPCOMING EVENTS

Month Theme Description
March Inspiring Success Stories We have four guests who have successfully built income producing work around their values, have overcome the key challenges, and are now comfortably enjoying fulfillment along with financial success.  We will hear their stories, both on the phone and in person, ask questions, and then discuss what lessons we can integrate to accelerate our own success.
April Finances / Money We're going to deal with finances on several levels this month.  We will have experts come in to share how to set up your finances if you are starting a business, as well as hold classes on your relationship with and beliefs about money, which are often exactly what lurks behind financial self-sabotage.
May Sales and Marketing Being able to sell yourself comfortably is the biggest key to business and career success.  This month we will talk about sales and marketing strategy as well as get into the psychology of the sales conversation and take a look at what makes it so awkward and embarrassing.  Our goal this month is to get everyone up on a sales system they are comfortable with so they can enjoy selling and also get results!
June Systems for Success / Productivity The second biggest key to success after being able to sell yourself, is being able to manage your time so you are not drained by the demands of your business when it gets too busy.  This month we'll look at techniques from the e-myth for business, as well as have each member create systems for what they do.  In addition we'll go beyond time management to looking at what drains your energy and how you can feel more energized and focused each day, even when you have a lot going on.
