ARE YOU A RISK TAKER?

What's Risk Got To Do With It? Traditionally, boys and men are encouraged to engage in a wide variety of risk-taking endeavors and have plenty of opportunities to do so. Girls and women, however, are encouraged to conform and play by the rules.

As a woman business owner and as a coach of women in business, I've seen that no matter how successful we get, we all eventually hit the edge of our comfort zone, limiting our ability to take risks.

For some this zone is smaller than others. That learned behavior of conformity combines with the self-limiting beliefs we've adopted over the years and holds us back from taking even the smallest of risks.

What's exciting is that now, more then ever, women are well poised to break through these cultural and gender stereotypes.

Rethinking Twitter For Business

My response to Beth Harte on Twitter:

Beth, I wish I had seen your question on Twitter yesterday. (Beth asked): “Sometimes I wonder why I follow so many people who never chat with me. Yeah, yeah, marketing, blah, blah. But really…why? Thoughts?”

I would have answered: This social media craze is all new to me. I have a business and I have to do my own marketing, but I am not an expert. My expertize is as a writer and an innkeeper (one-woman operation). It’s a small operation, can’t afford to pay for marketing. So I rely on research, reading, and the internet for ideas. I have asked many questions on Twitter, to which I never got an answer. Ocassionally someone will respond. However, where I feel I get the most value out of it is by reading other chats and comments from people like you, as well as others who are experts in marketing and social media and other related fields. I’ve gone to the links they suggest, to their blogs and to their sites. I think focussing on utilizing the tremendous amount of info that is put out on Twitter and not on whether or not one get’s a response reaps the most benefits. Beth's site: http://tinyurl.com/dadvnz
