OAC 347 Owning Up or WHAT No Cupcake?
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
So this tale is about business and personal. Even though at first things seemed challenging and a bit of an 'oops' type situation, when you 'own up' gifts emerge totally unexpectedly! Quite a few blessings, in fact. So these 2 stories intertwine with my perspective and I hope you can relate and get a smile out of my Life Lessons. I'd love a comment and definitely a share - you probably know someone that would appreciate knowing someone else had this goof! Passing On A Smile, Gail Foley P.S. to for the Marketing Program that makes my show possible :-)

OAC 346 The Fun of Connecting!
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
This is a subject dear to my heart, because it's how I've built my businesses for years. Social Media showed up long after this became my main mode of operation. Guess, what? I have wrestled for years to use my in person networking efforts online. Just have never grasped it, so I finally accept that. But whether you have or not, however, you connect - the fun is learning about the other person - it is NOT, and I repeat, it is NOT about you! Having a true sense of curiosity of wanting to help people is what I believe makes it fun and leads to so many gems. One a new friend, two other...

OAC 345 True Confession
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
Hello my awesome listeners :-) Just finally showing up to re-engage you in fixing what I really never did... I promised 7 years ago when I started this to always help you on your 'success journey', but I'm not really sure my stories did that. Although I did leave you with a lesson, but were you able to apply it to your business? So I am switching it up and starting a private FaceBook group to invite those that really want to learn the things I've used to succeed. It's not launched yet, but will be Your Success Connector. I will help you navigate if you struggle...

OAC 344 The Paths We Take.
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
Hello One Awesome Communities. Thank you for tuning in - once again I've been out of the loop and missing bringing you my messages. First I had 2 weeks of computer re-set issues, which just getting this broadcast done was a challenge with a reset. And now I'm into my third week of a bronchial virus that has my voice a little bit whacked. But my message today all about stepping forward or stepping back depending on what path you're on or where the next one might take you. I was going to call it "You've Got The Power with Introspection" but that bored me right out of the gate. So...

OAC 343 You've Got The Power with Laughter!
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
I love the sound of laughter, from the baby to the audience watching a comedy. And I know if you infuse humor into your life on a daily basis it will touch not only your heart, but have that domino affect on those you interact with. Today's episode is my usual story line of things I laugh at, but dig just a bit deeper in how you can use it in your business. Diffuse the embarrassing moment, by seeing humor in it, at yourself, never at the expense of someone else... But to get the full picture - why not listen in :-) Or video version at Passing on a smile, Gail

OAC 342 You've Got The Power with Kindness!
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
Today's show is all about how much this world needs more kindness. There are billboards around our town reminding people of that. And I forgot to mention that on my show. This episode could go quite long if I quote all the signs of us needing more kindness towards each other. So I reflect on 3 articles that I just saw yesterday. Two in our local Sunday paper. This first one was on the Opinion page, by a Judge. The headline "Key to saving our nation is for us to love our neighbors." I think showing kindness to our neighbors is a great way to love our neighbors, don't you? ...

OAC 341 You've Got The Power with Gratitude
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
Wow! It has been a day or two since I've been on here! My last episode was during a lot of commotion and I took a step back and started enjoying things I had long put aside. But I'm excited to come back with a new series called, "You've Got The Power" because we all do. It just may take a lot to find it and use it. Our ups and downs do not define us, how we work through them and appreciate the lessons we've learned, is what will. No one listening to me today is the same person you were when you heard me last, in any normal circumstances, but especially in our...

OAC 340 Are You A Shifter?
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
Ironically I actually talked about making a small shift on my show in July 2019. Little did I know what a HUGE shift we would have a year later. My show today is after 2 1/2 months of silence from me. I've been through the anger, the sadness, the hopelessness, the confusion, the anger again, the sleeplessness - and back again! I really was at a loss on what I might be able to say to inspire or enlighten you. I was struggling to have some of my own. I haven't found a way to do my card business because although a lot of people do it online, I've never been able to...

OAC 339 There's An Elephant In The Room??
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
So I am always intrigued by expressions. Where did they originate from and what in the world do they mean? I think most of us know what the expression 'Let's address the elephant in the room.' means, but what if you were not familiar with the phrase? Wouldn't you be looking around for an elephant? What about the expression 'on a whim'? What is a 'whim' and why would you anything on one? So I think you can see where I'm going with this. As I did this show I tripped over a few more in just explaining this little language phenomenon. Wild ones that surprised me and...

OAC 338 My Silly Moment!
One Awesome Community: With Gail Foley, sharing life lessons to help you on your success journey! | Motivation | Inspiration | Success Tips |
I'm sending this out to put a smile on your face and a chuckle in your voice. I think we all need to have a few extra ones of those right now. This is one of my fun adventures that turned into a giggle fest that I cherish and love to share. I'd love to hear if you can relate to this funny one! I know as I've personally shared this silly moment, many of us have experienced the same moment, just not with the same end results. I also want to re-iterate what we all need to feel right now - being connected. Are you picking up the phone and saying Hi to someone you've not spoken to...
info_outlineI know you're thinking...WHAT? Why would any one prefer stress over de-stressing. Well, let me ask you something. Have you ever created your own stress?
Well, listen to my most recent tale and you will understand where I'm coming from...because I did a terrible injustice to myself and you, my loyal listeners.
Thank you for jumping back in to listen, it's been quite a while! The crud got me, but I lowered my resistance by not being aware enough of what I was doing to myself.
Sounds crazy I know, but when you're hit with a virus and your voice disappears - not fun for a podcst talk show host - or anyone! But it's hard to do justice to any spoken word when you have 2 big fat bull frogs taking up residence in your throat!! But it does give you time to reflect on what is going on. And I figured out where I had created my own stress.
And I encourage you to take stock of what you find yourself doing. Are you self-sabotaging yourself by the simple choice you've made? We usually think it is a more deliberate act when we do something to sabotage ourselves, but nope, I found out differently.
Thank you so much for listening. You truly are One Awesome Community.
Passing On A Smile,
Gail
