Whose Voice is in Your Head?
Zig Ziglar tells a story of winning a sales contest and taking the prize home to his wife – a country ham. She promptly cut the ends off the ham and puts it in a pan to cook it. He asked her why she was wasting that good ham. She told him that’s how her mom cooked her ham. So, he asked her to find out from her mom why she cut the ends off the ham.
Discover Your Zone of Genius
Recently I helped my niece plan the menus for a weekend celebration of her husband’s graduation from Veterinary School. We had many blind spots as we started planning. We didn’t know what we didn’t know.
A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words
“A picture is worth a thousand words.” Today I’m testing that wisdom.
Over the past months, I’ve written about the Masterpiece Work process in many different ways. I have no doubt that I’ve written multiple thousands of words about it, just in 2018.
Expectation vs. Reality: I Want Clarity NOW!
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been asking leaders this question: What held you back from moving into your Masterpiece Work? Their answers most often related to the desire to KNOW what was going to happen and exactly where they were going before they made the leap from their Zone of Competence or Zone of Excellence into their Masterpiece Work.

These limiting beliefs and fears create a scarcity mindset that blocks you from receiving or accepting the abundance God wants to give you.

In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy and her companions set off to see the wizard on the yellow brick road. As they enter the scary forest, they chant the well-known phrase, “Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!” As I considered the challenge of upper limit problems, limiting beliefs, and fears, I was hearing their chant in my head.
What Zone Are You In?
It was early 1981. I’d graduated from college June 1980, after a disastrous student teaching experience. I got married in October of that year and was looking for my first “real” job. The disastrous student teaching experience really sunk my confidence; I’d wanted to teach ever since my freshman year of high school. I didn’t know where to look. On top of that, our country was in a recession, so jobs weren’t plentiful.
The Masterpiece Work Process
The last few weeks have been pretty crazy. Last Thursday, I did a webinar for WELD (Women for Economic and Leadership Development) on owning your voice so you can make a bigger impact. Developing that took much more time than I’d expected! The message was well-received. I can’t wait to share it with more people.
Are You Consistent?
A few days ago I had this interchange on Facebook Messenger with an old friend who’d recently joined Facebook:
Friend: “Hi Rhonda. Do you ever look at other ways of making money?”
Me: That is a wide-open question. What are you thinking? And at this point, I’m pretty happy where I am. I’m doing what I feel God has created and called me to do. But I’m curious.
