This is not a blog about about Real Housewives, business, or low-calorie alcohol. However, it ‘s a blog about following the path that God has for you.
So why am I writing about someone who is famous for Real Housewives, business, or low-calorie alcohol?
Because when you do figure out what God’s next step is for you, we need to use every resource and brain cell that He has given us to make that plan a reality. And this woman, has used a lot of brain cells.
When I talk about what I do for a living, I can no longer say “writer”. Writer doesn’t even begin to describe what I do. Yes, I write books, but I also speak, coach, network, market, and have products beside my book. You can call me an author, but I think the term “Authorepureneur” is a little bit closer to including all my activities.
It is the same for you and what you are trying to accomplish in life. If your leading a Bible study, it’s not enough to be a good teacher. The best leaders are also:
Marketers – they know how to advertise a class
Networkers – they know how to make connections and keep those women coming back for more
Social Media experts – keeping in touch and starting a Facebook page to keep in touch only adds to the study
Ministers – managing the needs of her group
Party Planners – someone has to bring the snacks to keep those women coming back
Child care coordinator – nuff said
If you are a bible study leader, a ministry leader, a children’s ministry leader, a MOPS coordinator, your son’s room mom, or just a mom, multiple skills are required to make a success of your endeavor.
So here is are my questions that I would love for you to answer below:
1. What are you trying to do? Go back to school, start a business, lead a ministry?
2. What is something you need to learn to make you more successful (or get your started) on that God project?
Hey friends. I am putting together an e-cookbook of favorite quick dinner recipes. You know, things you can throw together in 30 minutes or less and get your whole group fed. Would you be willing to share your favorites with me? If your recipe is selected, I will send you an e-copy of the book, and you will have your name on the web for the rest of your life.
I’m looking for family favorites here: things that your people love. And they should be a friend/family recipe, not something that you grabbed from a cookbook.
Send them to me at recipes@kathilipp.com and you will have a bunch of new favorites coming your way soon!
BTW – we have some winners from our great Organizing Giveaway. If you are one of the following winners, go ahead and email sunnie at kathilipp.com and she will get your goodies sent out!
Welcome! I’m so glad you stopped by.
Isn’t Julie a hoot?!?
I want you to keep lovin’ on your man! So if you sign up for my newsletter (orver there on the right) I will sen you an e-cookbook: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO MAN FOOD (or how to drive your husband wild with passion by impersonating Betty Crocker.)
The webcast and twitter party are today at 11AM CA time (2PM East Coast) and here is the link to join in:
I’m sitting in a hotel in Colorado Springs and just can’t get to sleep. It’s been a great day with a visit to MOPS headquarters getting to present to many people on their staff. We had fun with THE ME PROJECT, and I had a chance to meet one on one with several of their key leadership. Had lunch at a great BBQ place (Brothers, if you are ever in the Denver area. Roger is a rock star when it comes to sniffing out the best dives.) Thanks to those of you who were praying for my time there.
Wednesday, I have a radio interview with Focus on the Family.
As you can imagine, I’m a wee bit nervous.
I will be sharing about THE HUSBAND PROJECT (to be broadcast at a later date.) I would love your prayers that I communicate clearly, would be able to sleep tonight, and would be an encouragement to those who are wanting more for their marriages.
So many of you read my books or this blog because you love story. Tell me what I should (don’t you hate that work, should?) do, and I rebel. Tell me a story, and change my life.
Someone I work with and admire, Julie, sent out this trailer and everyone I’ve shared it with is amazed. How can two minutes be so much. Because we all have a horse God has put in our lives to learn from. Perhaps your horse is a teenage son, or a boss who beats you down. Maybe it’s your husband who has had a midlife meltdown, or an aging parent who is making you crazy.
All you have to do today is just brag on him a little.
Let it drop to his mom that he’s a great husband. Let your kids know that their dad is the smartest guy you know (or makes the best salsa in the world.) Brag to your girlfriend about how your husband knows how to hang up a towel.
It really is that easy.
Oh and to help you in this department, I’m offering a little special over at the store: buy one of the “My Husband is a Hottie” shirts over at the store, and just for this week they are $14 (usually $18.)
When my assistant, Sunnie wore this in front of her kids, her sons couldn’t BELIEVE that their mom would wear such a shirt. Yep – it’s the only shirt on the planet that can make your husband blush, your mother-in-law proud, and your kids embarrassed at the same time. Check it out in my store at http://www.kathilipp.com/products/ under OTHER. (They will be on sale through Friday.)
OH – and a head’s up! On Thursday, I want you to get your husband a treat – a candy bar, a slice of cake, something (that he doesn’t have to share with you or a kid…) so you may want to be on the lookout today for something to give him tomorrow!
Today’s winner will get a DVD of THE HUSBAND PROJECT.
