Wondering how to balance a global mission and a humble heart?
How to handle all those pesky compliments?
What to do when you don’t really believe you’re all that great but you still need to promote yourself?

Yep. Me, too.

Plus I got this inquiry the other day:

Hi Sam,

Thanks for yesterday’s call – it was really inspiring.

You said that your big challenge had been visibility, and “putting on your rock star coat” (I loved that image). That’s exactly what I struggle with – coming out from hiding.

I’d love to hear more about how you stepped out into the light – if there’s specific steps you took, how you coped with the emotional backlash of being more seen etc. Also the spiritual tension of humility v reaching for the stars…

Thanks again!

Best wishes,
D.

So I created the following call — please feel free to listen, download and share it — no registration required.

You’ll find out why you must:

1) Be a unicorn.

2) Be a rose.

3) Be gracious.

4) Be the department store Santa

5) Be 1% more present.

6) Be YOU.

7) Be an open, spiritually-centered vessel for money, success and praise.

“Just what I needed to hear today as I prep for the BIG YES! Thanks. You mentioned so many things that shoot right to the heart of my worries.” – G.A.

“Hi Sam! This was a GREAT call.  Thank you for sharing your knowledge!” – R.C.

So…what do you think?

Are you willing to start using your magical powers for good?

P.S. I make a few references to my upcoming event

The Big Yes: How To Overcome Procrastination, Perfectionism and Self-Doubt and Make Money from Your Creativity
June 20-23, 2013
San Diego, CA

and there’s still a few tickets available — if you’re interested you can find out more here: www.BigYesRevolution.com — Thanks!

The Big Yes: How To Overcome Procrastination, Perfectionism and Self-Doubt and Make Money from Your Creativity

I want to be there but I don’t know where the money would come from and I think my spouse/partner will HIT THE ROOF if I say I’m doing this…

 Got it.  I know the feeling.


Try this quick exercise (it works AMAZINGLY WELL on recalcitrant spouses: )

1) Make budget of everything (flight, room, meals, new outfit… : ) that this trip might cost, then add 10% because there’s always something extra.


2) Make a list of 30 ways that some or all of that total amount could show up in the next month.  Write down silly ways, real ways, pretend ways, fantasy ways, dumb ways, I-would-never-do-that ways… and don’t stop until you’ve got a list of 30.


3) Pick one of those ways and do it today.


Then, when you speak to your partner you can


1) Show him/her the budget

2) Show her/him all the ways the money might be found

3) Show him/her that you’ve already taken a step towards bringing in that money.


It’s fun to do, and hey — once you do this exercise, you may find that you don’t really want to come after all.


Or you may discover that you really DO want to come and so – damn the torpedoes – you’re coming! 

Will you be videotaping or live-streaming The Big Yes?

Nope.  Sorry.  Not this time.  And I have no intention of turning this into a product, either — at least not this year.  So if you want the down-low on how to make money from your creativity, you gotta be there in person.

I’m not sure that I’ll…um, you know….FIT IN with the group?

Oh, honey – just wait until you clap eyes on this vivacious, wise, funny, dedicated, witty, challenging, no-bullshit, kind-hearted group of creative geniuses!  You are going to feel you are finally at the family reunion you’ve always wanted.


People are coming from all over: New York, Louisiana, Vermont, Ohio, Colorado, Utah, Oregon, Illinois and yes, California.  We’ve got writers and teachers and musicians and painters and therapists and actors and ministers and interior designers and even our own polyamory specialist as well as marketers and entrepreneurs and social media experts and…gracious…well, you’ll just have to come see for yourself.


Prepare to meet a community of 50 people who will delight you, inspire you and call forth your very best self.

I want to do the $99 bring-a-friend thing, but I’m not sure if my friend can come yet…????
That’s OK – you go ahead and get your ticket (and BOOK YOUR HOTEL ROOM ASAP so you don’t miss out on our special rate) and then, later, if your friend can come, just let me know and I’ll send you the order form for the extra $99.

I need to share a hotel room but I don’t have anyone to bring with me…???
No problem – I’ve got a few people looking to share, so I think we can probably find you a good roommate.

What about the meal plan thing?

Same deal — you can always add that on later if you want.  No worries.

How much personal attention will I get?
Lots.  I’m limited attendance to 50-60 so that everyone can get the personal attention they need.



What’s the schedule again?
Plan on arriving Thursday, June 20 anytime before 5pm.

Our opening event/reception is Thursday from 5pm-7pm.

We’ll work all day Friday and Saturday.  Maybe evening sessions, too.

We’ll be done on Sunday by 4pm at the very latest.

What if I don’t like it?

MY GUARANTEE: If you’re not 100% thrilled by this event, just let us know by the end of Day One, return your materials and I’ll refund your tuition less a 10% administration fee – OK?

OK — I still have more questions…

No worries – go ahead and call me on my cell: 818-468-0540 and let’s talk about it.

Here’s the rest of the details:
Let’s run away together and make your dreams of earning money from your creativity — in your own, individualized way — come true!


(Plus we can play Whisper-Marco-Polo in the pool and there might even be a late-night game of Slipper Tag…. and wait until you hear about The Doodle Wall!)


You are cordially invited to spend 3 days with me in beautiful San Diego, CA.

Ready to make money from your creativity?  Then you are ready for this!

Creating this event is the biggest leap of faith I’ve ever taken — and I’d love it if you took it with me.

Have you heard the free preview call I did about The Big Yes?  It may be the best call I’ve ever done… I’d love to hear what you think.  You can listen, watch or download the MP3 – so grab a pen and maybe a tissue – because this one might make you puddle up a bit….(it’s all the way down at the very bottom of this page: www.BigYesRevolution.com




Let me know how it goes for you, OK?

Have you said this sentence to yourself about your creative projects, your clutter or getting your business off the ground?

“I know what I need to do…I just have to make myself do it.”

Yep.

I’ve said it, too.

And it’s a huge, horrible lie.

The truth is this:

You are aware of one method that you could use to get your project moving and…you’re not interested in it.

It’s like you’re standing down at the bottom of a mountain….

You can see the top and you think, “Oh! I really want to go there!”

From where you are, you can see one big path up the mountain. Lots of people are on this path.

But for some reason, you don’t want to take that path. You think about it, but you don’t move.

It’s just…not for you.

You may even start to wonder if there’s another way up the mountain.

But then your big “rational” voice says, “Don’t be silly. There’s the road up the mountain. Just do it. Just make yourself do it. What’s your problem? Are you lazy? Why don’t you just do it already?”

This voice is amplified by helpful magazine articles and practical-minded friends and well-meaning fools who keep telling you, “There’s only this one way up the mountain and you know you need to climb the mountain so get on with it, why don’t you?”

And yet you don’t move.

You start to feel worse and worse — because you really do want to get to the top of the mountain. So maybe you work on your self-esteem or you say affirmations or you try enforcing your willpower… but still…

Nothing.

Zip.

No movement.

Here’s the truth:

You aren’t moving because, honey — THAT ISN’T YOUR PATH.

There IS a way for you to climb that mountain and accomplish your goals… it’s just not the way you think.

After all, you are a Creative Genius.

You think different.

Your life is about art and self-expression and healing people and laughter and loving and doing the kind of work that doesn’t even feel like work because you love it so much and you don’t even notice the time passing.

And The World Needs Your Art.

So Here’s My Proposition:

The Monster Get It Done Teleclass is especially designed to help you –

Session #1: Figure out which of your projects to work on first

Session #2: Create a personalized project plan that’s both fun & easy (your own personal way up the mountain)

Session #3: Break through your self-imposed barriers to success

Session #4: Discover the perfect vocabulary for expressing the truth about you & your work (useful for both marketing and general self-worth)

Session #5: Find your tribe of ideal clients, collaborators and colleagues

Session #6: Stay in action (no petering out halfway through, OK?) and CELEBRATE!

Plus there’s bonus “Office Hours” calls and a year-long membership in my 365 Club PLUS you get a free ticket to the 3-Day

Retreat in San Diego, June 20-23, “The Big Yes: How To Overcome Procrastination, Perfectionism and Self-Doubt and Say YES to

Your Creative Prosperity”

Fun, right?

So if you’re ready to create your own success and make joyful progress on your projects in your own (ididiosyncratic, genius-y) ways, then check out The Monster Get It Done 6-Week Teleclass page here: www.MonsterGetItDone.com and sign yourself up!

(And if it turns out to not be the right thing for you, no worries – just let me know before May 8th and I’ll cheerfully refund your tuition. No questions asked. No hassle. No problem.)

I’m ready to help you find YOUR way up the mountain, so let me know – are you in?

P.S. Feeling ambivalent? Here are three steps you could take right now:

1) Watch, listen or download the MP3 of the free preview call — Get Unstuckified: Why You Procrastinate On The Important Stuff and What To Do About It (it’s all the way down at the bottom of the page)

2) Schedule a free 15-minute “evaluation” call with me here: https://www.timetrade.com/book/WWDYQ

3) If your intuition is tugging on your sleeve and you don’t feel like doing the “evaluation” call, then why not just jump in and register for The Monster Get It Done Teleclass

You can get started for as little as $199 — if you discover it’s not right for you, just let me know by May 8th and I’ll cheerfully refund your tuition, no questions asked.

By The Way, You Look Really Great Today

Here’s a great question I’ve gotten a bunch recently — it gets phrased different ways, like…

“What would a daily schedule look like for me as an independent artist?”- K.

“How to complete things and avoid being overwhelmed?” – J.

“Should you focus on one goal or several?” – Daddio

“Help! How to plan so I’m not just responding to the urgent?!” – C.

“Guidance on sticking with one project while so many new ideas call for action”- K.

Here’s my answer: I wonder if this is actually a problem for you.

Or to put it another way….

Here’s my other answer: What result are you seeking that you are currently not getting?

The thing is, creative people have a lot of weird ways of getting things done. Ways that look completely bananas to the outside world. It’s like we’re the rheumy-eyed uncles who drink and smoke and say rude things and somehow end up living healthy as a horse until the age of 102. We’re an anomaly.

Not knowing the details of your work or your habitual pitfalls, it’s hard for me to give you specific advice, so I’ll just pull back the curtain and let you in on what I do:

I don’t really keep a regular schedule. I work when I want to work, or when it’s needful for me to work, and I goof off the rest of the time. I spend an inordinate amount of time learning, reading, listening to audios, and a shocking amount of time just having conversations with people I find interesting. I’m not very good about setting time limits or about “balance” in my life — whatever that’s supposed to mean.

I often go through long weeks when, much to my frustration, it seems like nothing is happening. In those times I remind myself that every field must lay fallow.

At other times I’m scheduled up to my eyeballs and I’m an absolute whirling dervish of productivity.

I pretty much always DO do the following:no electronics on Sundays

• no electronics in the bedroom
• generally I’m done by 7pm and then I’m off all night
• walk or swim every day
• meditate every day
• make a list each morning of the THREE things that MUST get done that day
• keep a running list of the bajillion of other things that need doing
• keep a “genius” folder for great ideas that I’m not ready to move forward on yet

I find that I work better when I have a few big projects going simultaneously. But “a few” meaning 3-5… not 12-30, you know?

Otherwise, I’ve learned to trust myself and to go with the flow. Some days I’m craz-zay-zee productive. Some days I go back to bed at 11am. Some days I write, some days I do the money stuff, some days I plan long-term, some days I putter and piddle the whole day away.

Now, I know a lot of very successful people who lead far more regimented lives than this, and I admire them.

And if you are NOT getting the results in your life that you want, well….you may want to try imposing some more structure on your day. BUT ONLY IF YOU KNOW YOURSELF TO BE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO RESPONDS WELL TO STRUCTURE. You know what I mean?

But make sure you do it in the way that works for YOU. So if you’re all energetic in the morning, schedule your hardest tasks for then. Eat your broccoli first, as it were.

And if you know that you only write well without interruptions, then for heaven’s sake, turn off your phone when you sit down to compose.

So my message is this: Put Down The Whip.

You don’t need to be better than you are.

You’re a strange bird, and you’re going to have to surf your schedule in whatever way seems right to you.

My guess is you probably don’t have to work any harder than you do already, but you may have to learn to work smarter. And that may mean saying “no” to people who are time-sucks, turning your back on household tasks and keeping your focus on your highest-income producing activities.

Please let me know how it’s all going with you

Do Less Be More Episode 1 from Samantha Bennett on Vimeo.

Penny Dugmore via Compfight

I get this sort of question a lot:

“Help me get my 15 minutes! Life is so busy. The kids, dog and husband need so much! I’m going crazy.” – K.H.

“Do you know how to squeeeeeeeze a few more hours out of a day? LOL – C.C.

Here is my not-kidding answer:

DO LESS STUFF.

That’s right. You heard me.

Do less.

And here’s an exercise to show you HOW to do that:

1) Write down all of the activities that you typically do in a day, like, say…

drive car pool
laundry
pay bills
make phone calls
write
work out
get the mail
read
work with clients
play with the kids
plan upcoming travel
coordinate volunteers/charity work
grocery store
cook supper
watch TV

2) Now, put an asterisk next to the tasks that ONLY you can do. Using our previous list that would be something like:

write
work out
read
work with clients
play with the kids

3) Find some way to get those other items off your plate.

You may need to hire someone, you may be able to simply ask some of the other grown-ups in your life for help. Teach the kids to do the laundry and get a co-chair to work with the volunteers.

Yes, you will have to get over some of your perfectionism – nobody else is going to do as good of a job cooking dinner or sorting the laundry as you do. But guess what? You have bigger fish to fry.

Your creative life is never going to take precedence over your quotidian life unless you make it happen.

Let me say this one more time:

The work that only you can do, you must do.

The work that anyone can do, someone else must do.

And if you’d like some help strategizing & executing, please consider working with me one-on-one and fill out my VIP Application here: http://bit.ly/VIPapp

Let me know how it goes for you, OK?

So, I’m just thrilled to bits about all this…

I’m especially bananas about the LIVE “Be Your Own Monster” Event in June – I’m getting some amazing teachers to join me and I think I can guarantee you one heck of a great time.

YAY!

Obviously, this isn’t the only time you’ll have to grab these offers, but it’s for sure the cheapest : )

BTW, as you probably already know, just about everything I sell is backed up by my “Satisfaction Guaranteed or Your Money Cheerfully Refunded” policy.

Please note that this guarantee does not contain an “I forgot to use it” contingency, an “I’ve changed my mind” scenario or an “Ooops, I’ve been sleep-shopping again” clause.

Without getting into a bunch of legalese, here’s the deal: if you participate fully in the offerings you purchase and find yourself dissatisfied for any reason, please let me know ASAP so we can take steps to remedy the situation. If you are still unhappy, then we’ll talk and if a full or partial refund is what’s necessary, then that’s what we’ll do. Either way, we’ll work together to find a great solution. Fair enough? Thank you. – SSB.

Let me know what you think, OK?

Why I Get Mushy About Infusioncon

Well, first of all let me say that I am the last person on earth one would expect to be in love with a software company’s annual conference.  But Infusioncon changed me.

Please note: I have no business or marketing background, no training in computers or software.  But back in 2009 when started working for myself full time, I found Infusionsoft, and it’s been true love ever since.

First, let me tell you what Infusionsoft is: it’s an all-in-one system whereby you can send emails, track who opens and clicks on those emails and also sell people stuff.  It’s like having a way to send nice emails, an extra-detailed address book that remembers everything a person has ever done and a shopping cart system to sell your stuff — all in one.

It’s a huge, beautiful machine.

Now, back to that conference . . .

Back in 2010, I attended my first Infusioncon, slightly shocked to be honored as an Ultimate Marketer Finalist.  I presented the story of my business in front of a thousand people.  I wrote Ode to the Entrepreneur for them and they gave me a standing ovation.  You can see it on the tape here: the proof that poetry and business can make great bedfellows.

That Infusioncon was the first time I ever really embraced my new identity as a business person, and I was able to do it easily because Infusioncon is a convention of THE NICEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD.  The CEO, the management, the tech support staff… unnervingly kind, every last one of them.  Even their customers are crazy-nice.  Which is why it’s so fun to hang out with them all once a year.

Really, you must go.

This year it’s March 27-29 at the swanky Westin Kierland Resort & Spa.  Your brain will melt (in a good way) from all the information and ideas – there’s a ton of expert sessions & trainings and this year my hero David Allen is speaking and – wait for it – so is Daymond John from Shark Tank, the world’s greatest television show.

I love them so much that I’ve become an Infusionsoft Certified Consultant (do I look smarter?) and I am proud to represent them, especially to the creatives, iconoclasts, writers, artists, performers, poets, teachers, geniuses, weirdos and wild bunch-ers who make up my community and might not otherwise hear about this stuff.
