I’m really sad that I will have to miss this great get together of like minded people. Having some wings would be a great asset but right now, the winter storm I am facing to drive home is enough to get all birds looking for cover!

JV at it’s best. Here Mike Klingler found Barbara Silva…or rather, Barbara found Mike.

I remember the first fledgling forays into internet presence. Barbara was authentic, candid and compelling.

The rest is history. Mike did his part in relationship building. He and Barbara discovered her giftedness. Barbara with encouragement and coaching followed her passion.

Now she lives her dream. Coaching Cognition. Interesting name in that to me it implies a relationship that empowers the student/client to “see” their lives in a new way.

Renegade Professional is Barbara’s starting place. Very fitting that the partnership grows from the roots.

If you have any sense that your life and/or business will benefit from some new insight. Coaching Cognition is for you.

I just want to say that I’ve been in different kinds of MLM training programs in the past but once I found Renegade Professional I started to learn different things that I didn’t even know were out there. This is the Best of the Best Internet Marketing training I have seen in over two years.

Listening to Dr. Ellie Drake really impressed upon me how important Coaching Cognition is for all aspects of my life.

Getting in touch with the “heart” of the matter may be easy for some, but most of us need guidance and there is no guide I would rather be a student of than that of Dr. Ellie and Barbara Silva.

Comment by Marie Leonard — November 9, 2009 @ 9:37 am

Well I have to say that listening to this has inspired me to sign up for Coaching Cognition. Ellie truly has a gift of insight and can present in a way that hits home to my inner voice.

Enjoyed the frank, clear description Ellie presented. Thank you Mike and Ann.

Comment by Jim Bradley — November 9, 2009 @ 4:17 pm

It’s been a while since I heard Ellie and must admit had lost track of her.

Thanks Mike for sharing this with everyone who was not able to listen to the conference.

“…Entrepreneurs are good coach, and good coaches are good listeners”

“Learning to know who you are and what you stand for”

Most importantly, how one could develop to communicate success, help others achieve it, and establish one’s organizational culture.

Will you be the coach that you will hire to coach ‘you’? So profound.

Prior to listening to Ellie, I wasn’t sure I had the time to join Coaching Cognition, but hearing Mike and Ellie talk I knew I had to make the time, even if it meant putting my other projects on hold.

Comment by Rallie Rallis — November 9, 2009 @ 7:29 pm

Unfortunately, I missed the “live” program, but, nonetheless, I thoroughly appreciated the insightful suggestions Ellie made on the playback.

I plan to listen to it entirely again and view the interviews for further insight.

Thanks again, Mike, Didi & of course, Ellie Drake!

Comment by Violeta Edge — November 10, 2009 @ 9:54 am

if someone want to be a good coach,
ferst of all, he has to build and establish good communication with the people. for to divelop the skills of making good communication, first of all we have to listen and to be interesting and to be focus to the massage which is sent to us, and to listen to ourselves intuition.

Comment by lea sedan — November 10, 2009 @ 1:44 pm

I am so thankful that this was recorded because I was unable to attend the original podcast.

Ellie is so very inspirational and the points made truly hit some important spots with me.

Thank you for sharing so much value with us all.

Comment by Angela James — November 11, 2009 @ 10:14 am

What an absolute pleasure listening to Ellie! I was hanging on every word. She is so natural and friendly. A perfect example of what she is teaching us.

I used a couple of the tips and noticed a difference already. It’s not hard, just have to be aware of it.

Thank you Didi and Mike for arranging this call for us. What tremendous value! And I have taken Ellie up on her free gifts. Very generous of her.

Comment by John Cldwell — November 12, 2009 @ 7:20 am

It is difficult to find the words to express my gratitude for what Ellie and Mike have shared with us on this call.

It was so good to be brought back to basics and to remember “I am my product” therefore I invest in myself in order to be that genuine giver that tends to be forgotten in the rat race of life.

It was of those soul touching moments. Thank you so much.

Comment by Judith Atkinson — November 12, 2009 @ 9:48 am

Ellie web-cast was truly awesome. I enjoyed every moment as I sat there and listen to speak about coaching and how it helps an individual in more ways than one. I’m grateful I had an opportunity to listen to her first hand. She’s truly insightful…

Thank you,
Donna Wells

Comment by Donna Wells — November 12, 2009 @ 1:25 pm

Adding on to the spirit of what has already been stated, I too, found the call interview both inspiring and challenging: both times.

You say, “both times?” Yes, I just listened one ore time a few short moments ago.

1. Page open.
2. Keyboard ready.
3. And taking notes while “the music was being played” again so-to-speak.

Stopping.
Pausing the lesson.
Grabbing the important points.
Trying to sense what I was to learn.

All important ways to get to most out what was not only graciously shared for us but also provided for us to take advantage of listening to as much as desired.

In addition, several of my “take-aways” from Mike at the conclusion were thoughts such as the following:

Merely begin your next step.
Merely start focusing on it.
Begin “facing towards it.”

Me? I like the “begin facing towards it.” For some reason, I liked that phrase. Possibly because I like the concept of “leaning into” a thought, idea or a person’s advice.

I am grateful to Ellie, Mike and the Renegade Professional team for making this available.

May you and those you love enjoy a wonderful weekend,

Lee

Comment by Lee Wise — November 13, 2009 @ 2:05 pm

The nuggets in this webinar was outstanding because it is the application of knowledge that is truly powerful. If you are unable to connect in a genuine way with your potential business partners then your business will never grow to the extent that you want to grow. Many people hide behind auto responders and email but the most successful people figure out the best way to connect with their partners. Ellie Drake was tremendous and the knowledge was unsurpassed by anything I have heard in a few months.

Comment by shirland — November 13, 2009 @ 6:07 pm

Knowing that Dr Ellie Drake is contributing to our Coaching Cognition course does influence people’s decision to take it.

It did not for me, as I knew that this course would impact my life in a positive way right from the start.

Having Dr. Drake’s contribution is just icing on the cake.

Comment by Marie Leonard — November 18, 2009 @ 1:49 pm

Beautiful and smart to boot! There is much to learn from Dr. Ellie Drake as we “lean into ourselves” to find the answers and share with value.

Comment by Marie Leonard — November 9, 2009 @ 9:34 am

Elle had me spellboound. I now sit up straight , lean back and dance to my own inner tune.

She is so intuitive.

She leapt off the video and walked beside me. Quite an experience.

Comment by Judith Atkinson — November 13, 2009 @ 12:17 pm

Donny and his partner are one of five competing tonight for another chance to dance.

They did a 60’s number and very interesting 80’s tune tonight.

I made my vote. We’ll see if they dance tomorrow.

Comment by Pat Campbell — November 9, 2009 @ 9:30 pm

Hi Barbara,

you wrote, Recently I wrote an article about Donny Osmond and the Surprising Connection with Entrepreneurs. I decided…or I should say…I set my intent to interview him. I have made this intent public because I have found that when I share my goals with another person, I deepen my own commitment to making it happen.

I think it’ll happen. Sort of like when you said you were going to meet Robert Kiyosaki, you did. Sort of like when you said you were going to partner with Mike Klingler, you did. Sort of like when you said you were going to meet the crew at Magnetic Sponsoring, you did.

You have always had a unique way of creating intent and whamo! it happens. Such a great model our community.

We’re all pulling for you and we can’t wait for you to bring that interview to all of us.

On behalf of our 3,000 plus community, we’re all behind you.

Eric Walker

Comment by Eric Walker — November 18, 2009 @ 1:27 pm

Barbara, Such a wonderful gift you have for showing all of us that you indeed walk the talk! You and I have had numerous conversations regarding your intent to invite Donny to our Live Event in January or at very least sit down and interview him and from the very beginning, I have been behind you 110%.

You and I have been enjoying watching Donny on Dancing with the Stars and that is when you began to understand the man behind the entertainer. You diligently did your research to find out that Donny has been through so much in his life and realized that he had much to offer the entrepreneurial movement.

Most people would have missed that connection.

You gave us a blueprint on how you go about meeting people like Robert Kiyosaki, Eben Pagan, Frank Kern, Mike Dillard, Ann Sieg and of course Mike Klingler by bringing value to them first.

I have taken your advice and have since put out my own intentions. I was already voting for Donny on DWTS but also have alerted my list to follow suit. Along with that I am supporting Donny’s son, Don, by donating to his latest charity cause, Movember: Changing the Face of Men’s Health…http://us.movember.com/mospace/291390/

Maybe I’m biased but next time around it’ll be Donny wanting to request an interview with you! (Wink, Wink!)

Comment by LeeAnn McVey — November 18, 2009 @ 1:45 pm

Thanks for laying out our process, from forming intent through planning to successful action.

That process works amazingly well – especially when it is driven by good intention and led by value for the other person.

I’m a supporter on Twitter.
Good Luck.

It will be pretty exciting to see Donny at the live event – that will be a crowd pleaser!

Comment by Michael Wilson — November 18, 2009 @ 2:08 pm

Barbara I cant wait to hear your interview – In my mind it has already happened and you are just getting it edited before we get to hear it. Donny is someone that I have admired for years – as well as Marie.

Comment by Dotty — November 18, 2009 @ 3:01 pm

Barbara, Your formula for getting the interview with Donny Osmond, or for setting and achieving any goal for that matter is spot on. The two most important steps though are trusting your intuition and setting your intention.

Too many times we don’t listen to our own inner voice. We all know what to do if we’d just trust ourselves to do it. Thanks for a great post.

Sonrisas (smiles),
Beth

Comment by Beth Heilman — November 18, 2009 @ 4:16 pm

Barbara you have always been one to set your sets and achieving them and this is no different. Setting an intent or goal and going after it will always produce the desired impact.

I truly believe that what you are setting out to do here is no different and it is going to be reality even before you are really there.

Your insight is always so refreshing and powerful.

Comment by Angela James — November 18, 2009 @ 5:08 pm

Barbara: Just Fantastic! Also appreciate how you took us from start to finish in working toward your goal. You have my support for getting your interview, can’t wait.

Comment by David Enders, D.C. — November 18, 2009 @ 8:38 pm

This is such a great article on many levels and clearly demonstrates how we should all be doing our marketing.

We have all posted our intent to the Universe. All you need to do now is have interview prepared as soon as that phone rings. Ring! Ring!

What date are you posting the Interview for us all to lsiten too.

What a great Christmas present for you and truly deserved.

Comment by Judith Atkinson — November 19, 2009 @ 4:04 am

So here’s the update…I’ve heard from Donny’s manager who at this moment has politely declined the interview. Does that mean it’s over? No. These things come to fruition in their own time. If this interview is meant to happen, meaning there is value to be had for both Donny and for my clients, it will happen at the right time.

I’ll continue to give my support anyway because I really do respect what Donny has done with his life and career.

Meanwhile, I have been in touch with Donny’s older son who is involved with Movember – a cause for men’s health issues. Having lost my brother to prostate cancer, this is something I can authentically support regardless of Donny interview outcomes.

I’ve also heard from Brandon Osmond who is an amazing photography student. We are talking about possibly doing a shoot. Since Brandon is expressing himself through his photography, it is very important that the relationship developed here be completely separate from his dad. I will not be asking Brandon for the “inside” route to Donny.

Rather, I look at this as perhaps what was meant to happen all along. I had a deeply emotional response to Brandon’s work and I would not have found him if it wasn’t for doing research on the Osmonds.

The point is your path to a goal may take unexpected turns. Look at each detour and evaluate it – will it help you reach your goal or to set a new one? Is it a complete detour best left alone?

Set a time frame for your goals, but if you don’t achieve the goal within the time you set, that’s okay. You just keep plugging away knowing that all things will come when the time is right!

Stay tuned!

Comment by Barbara Silva — November 19, 2009 @ 12:23 pm

Being able to communicate expertly will certainly be an asset while building the “new team” model that is now emerging.

Those who embrace it will be far ahead of the crowd and positioned to help others who weren’t able to appreciate the full picture before it fully emerged.
