    This is year 4 for me too Pippi and I do agree that it does take time to build momentum and create a strong, profitable brand -especially when you’re bootstrapping and your funds for growth are limited. I see a lot of people give up around year 2 because things don’t always move as fast as they would like so good for you for hanging in there and reaching your goals! I’m off to check out your Etsy store!

    Oooooo love the store! I’m a vegetarian but I do about 80% vegan meals and 20% of my meals still incorporate eggs or cheese. I don’t buy leather or suede or anything either.

    You are definitely kicking ass Sandy! It has been awesome to see your progress and I look forward to seeing what you do over the next 12 months! :)

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Woohooo now I’m wishing I had many more copies of the book to give away ;)

    Thanks Tennille! We all have fear-based thoughts sometimes and as long as you call yourself on it, you shift from the fear into a space where you are open to all the opportunities awaiting for you. Have a fabulous year and I look forward to seeing all your achieve this year. It’s been great having you in WE Mastermind and the 21 Day Challenge :)

  • SK Jackson

    I am ready to allow myself the opportunity to follow through on a new consulting gig – I’ve halted it in the past due to some fears but now I”m going to allow this effort to fruit!

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Love it, tell me more about what you do.

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Woohoo it IS time! No risk, no reward. I’m cheering you on :)

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Thank you so much Carly, I appreciate the kind words. I started my business when I was still in college and it was the best thing I could have done. With the state of the economy more and more people have to start their own businesses out of necessity and there aren’t a ton of jobs out there waiting for students when they graduate. So bet on yourself and create your own career doing something you love :) Thanks for reading and I hope you’ll stop by often!

    It is truly incredible how many doors open and how at peace we can feel when we just surrender to our inner guidance and let it do the work. I hope you’ll check out my free 21 Day New Year Challenge and if you don’t already know Gabrielle Bernstein, I’m sure you’ll love her. Cheers to an amazing 2012!

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Yes, I do know you are ready Jen! I’ve loved seeing you create your plan and product launch over the last few months and I can’t wait to see what 2012 brings for you! 

  • Julie

    nice dancing natalie….also love the wall colour….anyways, i am READY for gallery representation in 2012!! There you go, I said it! Thanks so much for the inspiring words (see new post-it note)! Where do you get this energy from??? 

  • Virginia Love

    I’m opening a retail herb and spice shop which will also offer cooking classes and demos.  Lots to do to get it open.  Its exciting.  I’ll check out the 21 Day Challenge….sounds good.

    I am ready to make my art my full-time job, in order to pay off $20,000 in medical bills and other debt so that I can start living on purpose; traveling with my boyfriend, volunteering in animal shelters and education, and building a garden are all the tip of the iceberg!

  • Leslie

    Hi Natalie – Huge Congats on the book and another birthday!

    I am the TRIFECTA OF READY – health, mind and spirit! Health —  to shed the final physical drawbacks from successful breast cancer treatments and begin a work out regimen to re-claim my body.  Mind — to propel myself from a VP to Executive VP role and in turn help others develop the strategy for success.  Spirit — to truly feed the mother’s soul inside of me and continue nurturing and raising my 3 boys.  BRING IT, 2012!

  • Catherine

    I love the information I gain from your posts and the up beat spirit that you present! This year will bring alot of change for me as I’ll become a new mother (first baby) and but I’m also hoping to refocus and build on past successes.  This year I’m ready to refocus on my previously successful consulting business and develop my expertise into an on-line business that allows me to work from home and enjoy a work/life balance that I previously didn’t have when my business was operating at full capacity…I’ve taken a few years of “regular work” and deep down I know I must return to a private practice lifestyle!
    Thanks again and happy belated birthday. Can’t wait to read your book and look at the 21 day challenge.  

  • Debi Auger

    Happy Birthday Natalie!! I hope you had a very special day and wish you an awesome year!!

    I am ready to get out of my own way, remove those mountains I’ve been seeing in front of me and power through 2012 with a laser focus on my BHAGs!!

    I’m using T&GR and your 21-Day Challenge to work on my millionaire mindset. And of course WE Mastermind to work on my businesses :)

    I’m ready to fine-tune the focus of my handcrafted jewelry business, Designs by Debi, to the types of pieces I most enjoy doing. I’m ready to get aWAEHQn dreams, my success coaching business up and running… and I decided (on 29 Dec 11) to write a book so I’m working on that. And I’m ready to get my Hawaii website published this year :)

    I’m looking forward to a successful 2012! Thank you for the part you’re playing in it. I love your infectious enthusiasm ♥

  • Jess Green

    I’ve left my fulltime day job after balancing a business and working fulltime. 2012 is time for me to be ready and go it alone. I’ve made the jump and I am ready :)

  • Marsha4canada

    I am ready to make real change in the world at a grassroots level. Looking forward to reading your book!  Marsha

    Happy Birthday, Natalie! 

    I am READY to say no to the things that stand in my way, and to put more energy into following God’s will and plans for my life and my family’s life, rather than forcing what I want.

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    I LOVE THE STICKY NOTES JULIE!!!! :) They made my day. 

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    Awesome, are you setting up an online store to sell your art? Etsy has helped a lot of artists get their work out there and Shopify is a platform worth checking out too :)

  • http://www.shetakesontheworld.net Natalie MacNeil

    I can feel your energy jumping through my computer screen! Those are some amazing things to be ready for. I feel like you are going to OWN 2012!

    I am ready to achieve a happy balance between myself/my career/my passions and my sweet family. It’s been elusive in the past, but I believe I am ready to achieve! 

  • BA Carse

    Dear Natalie! WOW!  I’m ready to read your book!  Just as I wake up everyday ready for another student to amaze me with their talent, their enthusiasm, their success!  What a privilege to marvel in students finding their passion.  Congratulations!  Ms. Carse :D

  • TTM

    Natalie, you are such an inspiration.  I love when people realize that making it to another year is a blessing. I’m on day 13 of your 21 day challenge and on day 42 of my own 365 days of “resolve to evolve” … I realize that with all my blessings I still had so much “lack” in my life or should I say “self imposed lack” day by day I’m evolving to the woman I was meant to be.  I’m more than ready to allow myself to move forward with my business and drop the crutch of my day job that is not moving me forward.
