Living
with Intention in 2006 As the New Year approaches, it is a perfect time to reflect on your experiences from the past year in preparation for the coming year. The following exercise will assist you and your coaching clients to ‘complete the old’ and ‘create the new’. In doing so, you can gracefully let go of the past year and set your intentions for the coming year. Earlier this month, my Business Success Partner* and I met for our second annual retreat---a full day to reflect on what had occurred in each of our businesses in the past year and to create a vision for our businesses for the coming year. Since this was our second retreat, we also reviewed the intentions we had each set for our businesses at the end of 2004 to note what we had actually manifested. We ended the day feeling energized by the growth that occurred this past year and by the possibilities for the coming year. It is astonishing to me to review the completed exercise at the end of each year and see what I have successfully manifested in my life by setting intentions. Completing the Old Step

Business Success Partnership™ Building a successful coaching business is a daunting task for coaches who come to the profession as solopreneurs. Coaches face the formidable challenge of having to do it all: marketing, bookkeeping, business development, coaching. Working independently, they often experience a persistent sense of self-doubt and isolation which---at its worst--- can sabotage their ability to successfully create a thriving business. A Business Success Partnership™ (BSP) is a professional relationship created by two self-employed individuals for the sole purpose of ensuring that each individual’s business becomes wildly successful! It replaces overwhelm with synergy, and results in greater ease, momentum and enjoyment. End of Year Clearance---save $10 on BSP Kits! BSP kits are available for purchase for only $19, plus shipping and handling. Each kit includes a spiral-bound booklet with all of the information you need to get started, a CD explaining the benefits and features of a BSP, and an electronic version of the BSP forms and the materials in the booklet.

Upcoming Events in 2005
February 7 – March 28, 2006: Relationship Coaching
with Couples (Free Intro Call – January 17) Here’s
what one participant has to say about the teleclass: "Lisa
Kramer's teleclass on Relationship Coaching for Couples is
the most comprehensive and well-designed class I've ever taken
as a coach. She models excellence in coaching while she is
facilitating the class. Her supporting materials, including
the guidebook she wrote along with handouts to give clients,
are superb. Equally important, the field works assignments
she mandates as part of the class truly helped me quite rapidly
build competence in coaching couples. Learning from Lisa has
been one of best coaching investments." Life
