<p>My associate, <a href="http://www.dhcommunications.com/about/" target="_blank">Dianna Huff</a>, is an accomplished copywriter and author of Women Achieving Dreams, a downloadable ebook I recently purchased and plan to read soon. Until I can write a full review on it, here&#8217;s more information about the book in Dianna&#8217;s own words:</p>
<p><em>If you&#8217;ve found yourself saying, &#8220;I can&#8217;t&#8221; or if you&#8217;ve put your </em><em>dreams (big or small) on hold for &#8220;later&#8221; or &#8220;someday&#8221; or &#8220;after </em><em>the kids are grown,&#8221; then Women Achieving Dreams will inspire </em><em>you to make your dreams come true &#8211; now, today. </em></p>
<p><em>And, you&#8217;ll benefit a non-profit, too.</em></p>
<p><em>Each story in this wonderful and unique e-book is personal,</em><br />
<em>moving &#8211; and inspirational. You&#8217;ll learn about Judy, who</em><br />
<em>suffered a trauma no parent ever wants to go through when she</em><br />
<em>lost access to her son when he was four years old. Instead of</em><br />
<em>dying inside, she remained strong for the day when she would be</em><br />
<em>reunited with him.</em></p>
<p><em>Then there&#8217;s Wendy, who was told she would never walk again &#8211; or</em><br />
<em>have children. Wendy, I&#8217;ll have you know, runs triathlons . . .</em><br />
<em>and she&#8217;s the mother of six kids. That&#8217;s because she refuses to</em><br />
<em>let anyone define who she is. </em></p>
<p><em>Purchase Women Achieving Dreams: </em></p>
<p><em><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=drtrwicab&amp;et=1109270568734&amp;s=100234&amp;e=001bjY5U5fsOOSIP_hh63ERhAjmj9xKcxKXUQw7gr0ksKFaYRUAZbUEYXoNPeQ37RZcN0NVl8nC1Fz76d9SOIFW9XcgXw0ImL_fBvD6m2hE5PU_9V9BItcOrMGgn7M4KVgkIthHMgZ_Lv52LBhlkVv-Gg==" shape="rect" target="_blank">http://<wbr>profitablefemaleconsultant.<wbr>com/dreams-ebook</wbr></wbr></a></em></p>
<p><em>While writing this book, I visited the self-help section at</em><br />
<em>Borders to see if anything else like it existed. </em></p>
<p><em>Instead of finding books that inspired me, I found books that</em><br />
<em>made me feel . . . hmmmm . . . the word neurotic comes to mind.</em><br />
<em>Women who eat too much. Women who love too much. Women who think</em><br />
<em>too much. (Since when is thinking too much a bad thing?!)</em></p>
<p><em>Women Achieving Dreams is a celebration . . . a celebration of</em><br />
<em>women, just like you and me, who made their dreams come true</em><br />
<em>through strength, perseverance, and creativity. </em></p>
<p><em>Lois, for example, cut the &#8220;golden handcuffs&#8221; one day after</em><br />
<em>hearing advice from an old man at Burger Heaven. Even though she</em><br />
<em>had a son to support and parents in need, she quit her</em><br />
<em>high-paying job to start her own ad agency in her New York City</em><br />
<em>apartment.</em></p>
<p><em>Despite being abandoned by her parents, living on government</em><br />
<em>assistance, and supporting two children, Carolyn put herself</em><br />
<em>through school and then started her own company &#8211; and quadrupled</em><br />
<em>her income.</em></p>
<p><em>Women Achieving Dreams is full of stories like these.</em></p>
<p><em>Purchase Women Achieving Dreams: </em></p>
<p><em><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=drtrwicab&amp;et=1109270568734&amp;s=100234&amp;e=001bjY5U5fsOOSIP_hh63ERhAjmj9xKcxKXUQw7gr0ksKFaYRUAZbUEYXoNPeQ37RZcN0NVl8nC1Fz76d9SOIFW9XcgXw0ImL_fBvD6m2hE5PU_9V9BItcOrMGgn7M4KVgkIthHMgZ_Lv52LBhlkVv-Gg==" shape="rect" target="_blank">http://<wbr>profitablefemaleconsultant.<wbr>com/dreams-ebook</wbr></wbr></a></em></p>
<p><em>When I wrote Women Achieving Dreams, I knew I didn&#8217;t want to</em><br />
<em>give it away, but I also knew I didn&#8217;t want to profit from it. </em></p>
<p><em>That&#8217;s why when you purchase Women Achieving Dreams, you&#8217;re</em><br />
<em>really making a donation to Girls Fight Back, a non-profit</em><br />
<em>foundation that teaches young girls self-defense. Since its</em><br />
<em>founding, GFB has helped over one million women around the globe.</em></p>
<p><em>Do something good for yourself and for the young girls coming up</em><br />
<em>behind you &#8211; purchase Women Achieving Dreams. And begin making</em><br />
<em>your dreams come true.</em></p>
<p><em>Thank you,</em></p>
<p><em>Dianna Huff</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-576" title="MP900438811" src="http://goodcopyfast.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/MP900438811-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Inside your mind, what do you say to yourself?</p>
<p>1. Write down your inner dialogue<br />
2. Cross out all negative and false statements<br />
3. Add goal-aligned affirmations</p>
<p>Remember the quote by Taneo Sands Kumalae: &#8220;Energy flows where attention goes.&#8221; Just like you look forward while driving, focus your full attention on what you want to manifest in your life. Edit out the rest.</p>
<p>P.S. In her radio broadcast, Leadership and Life Coach (and my step-mom) Marcia Hyatt shares Nick Nissley&#8217;s quote: &#8220;We become the stories we tell ourselves.&#8221; She asks, &#8220;Am I living out an old story or am I creating a new chapter.&#8221; <a href="http://wtip.org/drupal/content/living-out-old-story-june-5-2010" target="_blank">Listen to the short program</a>.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s your story, and how is it bringing you closer to your dream? Share at the <a href="http://facebook.com/goodcopyfast" target="_blank">Good Copy Fast Facebook page</a>.</p>
