“ I wish you nothing but happiness and success”
In this episode of Success You, Susan talks with Cyndilu Miller- Photographer, Graphic Designer, Singer, Author, Speaker and LIFE Encourager. Cyndi through her Be Bold Personality Program is helping people who’re in their late years and trying to figure out their personality. She wants people to understand that they are completely unique and their life, experiences, education, everything they know and understand all of that comes together to create who they are.
QUOTES:
“You have many people in your family, but no two members in the family are exactly alike.”
“You only fit in this one piece, and let the rest of it go. Do not feel like you have to hold on to it all. Do not feel like you have to learn it all, that you have to understand it all.”
“Two people can be experiencing the same situation, one perceives it as sad and one perceives it as something that is wonderful.”
“Own your uniqueness. Show up as you. Don't try to be like the people you're learning from.”

Can You Survive Being an Author?
“What’s the odds of surviving as an author?” In this episode we dive into some of the top grossing authors of my time, and they make millions!
After researching and studying, this iswhat I know to be true...
If I continue to write, I will become “rich” according to Forbes or the Bureau of Labor and Statistics. And heck, maybe one day someone will interview me or write a post or news article about how many rejections I received, and how I am one of the wealthiest and giving authors of our time.
Do you think you have what it takes to survive the odds. Will you become an author?
Let's talk about it!
Story ideas are all around us.
Everything we see, touch, smell, hear, and taste has the potential to be a story seed that blossoms into a full-fledged story if nurtured properly.
No matter where your story comes from, you must nurture that story inspiration.
Shizzle happens to everyone, that doesn't make you or me a bad person.
Because we are human. No one enjoys dropping the ball. No one likes criticism. No one likes to disappoint others.
Here we speak about:
There is always a better way. There are a ton of resources and ways - it's only a matter of finding the one (or multiple ones) that work for you and your lifestyle - no more shizzle days!
So how do you handle the shizzle? Let's talk about it!
We all have insecurities. We all have fears. We all have doubts. I do not care who the heck you think you are, but the fact of the matter is, we all have insecurities, fears, and doubts. Period.
We can change all of it.
We will no longer give those ‘things’ (fear, doubt, insecurities) any of our time and energy. Nope. It is no longer in your best interest to do so.
All success begins with changing your perspective of past events. Believe in yourself, others will start to believe in you too.
Dream.
Let others see you.
Take action.
How do you allow others to see you? Let's talk about it!
You are important!
In this episode I talk about helping you find...YOU!
You time is about finding more time for YOU and less time on stuff that is depriving you of YOU. We all need time throughout the day to recharge, reset, and find balance again - it's safe to say if you don't find balance and YOU time, you will be cranky, and often in a worn out and depressive state.
Believe. Choose. Move.
Set Goals.
Are you saying YES to YOU? Let's talk about it...
Are you ready to finally FINISH what you started?
When you have the ability to choose...to choose how you spend your days, is gratifying.
Imagine what would've happened if I (or you) wouldn't have started again...and finished!
Starting over is okay...I've been there and so has many people. We pivot, and pivoting isn't all that bad, as long as you are pivoting in a positive direction. As long as shiny objects are not distracting you.
So, are you ready to finish what you started?
Let's go!
In today's episode I talk about 6 ways to beat the 'block.'
How to beat the elusive Writer’s Block…Practice writing. If you still need help and want to learn more, hit me up at susan@susanrkiley.com and let me know what you’re struggling with or how I can be of service to you.
A published book doesn’t become a published book overnight (generally speaking). Get used to sucking. Everyone sucks at writing during first (and at times second and third) drafts.
If you’re interested, you can head over to the blog at www.susanrkiley.com and read the blog post, How to Beat Writer’s Block or google and you’ll find many related articles on the topic of Writer’s Block.
If you want to be an author, you must write.
I don’t care if you use a pencil, a pen, a crayon, marker, or type…heck, you can even use voice-to-text recognition software. Whatever medium you choose, you must start and write.
You must study.
You must write.
You must read.
In this episode we answer the three most important questions:
If you're ready to find out How to Be An Author let's go!
Getting out of the funk!
Stay in funk.
Procrastinate on the internet.
Listen to me to get out of the funk through mindset hacks.
Let's break free of the funk!
Doesn’t matter if you’re a writer, entrepreneur, business owner or are thinking of wanting to become a freelancer, entrepreneur or writer, marketer, etc… or you don’t fit the normal stereotype—I DIDN’T EITHER!
I get to work from home, be a writer, spend precious days and events with my three amazing children, and I get to enjoy financial security.
And that is all because of the one moment in time I decided to say, “Alright, I am worthy of greatness. I can do this. I am valuable…time to share my talents and gifts with others.”
I would encourage anyone interested in being in their own business or they already are but are struggling as a freelancer, to give my resource guide a chance because it may change your whole life.
