Many of you are regular listeners to this program. Last week, I was Melinda Schmidt’s guest for the full hour where our topic was “Who am I and Why am I Here?” Here’s the replay of that program.

1. I have read 48 days, and No More Mondays, and I think I am scared of failure.
2. I have an unusual habit of doodling on Styrofoam cups. It started as a stress relief at work, but several people have asked me to make them a cup and have suggested I sell them.
3. I’ve come to the realization that my best future lies in working for myself. The problem I have is that being a solopreneur requires constant selling; I’m not a naturally outgoing, gregarious person.
4. Do you think it’s a good idea to leave my full time job in such a lousy economy?
5. I have a job where they constantly try to promote me. It seems like I can get every job I don’t want but can’t get jobs I really want. How do I break the chains and go in a different direction?
6. I’m 26 and I have been in sales since I was 16. My biggest passion is leadership or the lack there of, I see a big need in leadership development. I want to be a life coach but no college what now?

Ding Dong – Opportunity Calling!
Is there a new opportunity right under your nose?
The first Avon lady was a man. David H. McConnell was a big city bookseller. In 1892, when the perfume he used to reward loyal customers proved more popular than his paperbacks, he dumped the books and began promoting only the perfumes. McConnell’s next smart move was assembling a workforce composed entirely of housewives. In contrast to the then prevalent door-to-door salesmen, Avon ladies made friends with their customers and were not the creepy blue-suede-shoe guys that most people expected to see knocking at their doors. By recognizing his true market and how to best relate to his customers, McConnell made a fortune, and so did many of his Avon ladies.
Dan Interviews Author Laurie Beth Jones
Laurie Beth Jones has been called by Ken Blanchard and others “One of the Great Thought Leaders of Our Time.”
“In this 30-minute interview I probe into the core concepts of Laurie Beth’s newest book – Jesus, Career Counselor. I’ve admired her work since the publication of The Path, back in 1997. That book helped me shape my own teaching about finding our purpose and mission.” ~Dan Miller
In this segment you’ll hear Laurie Beth address these issues and more:
How Much Does it Take to Make You Happy – $75K?
They say money can’t buy happiness. But according to two economic researchers at Princeton University, $75K is the magic
number for us to maximize our happiness. After surveying 450,000 Americans they conclude that those with incomes below $75K struggle more with health and relationships increase. But interestingly enough, once someone hits that magic number there is no continuing increase in “happiness.” Going from $75K to $1,000,000 does not create more happiness or joy.
The dictionary describes “Happiness” as “a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, love, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy.”
