A note from Nicola
Yeah Baby Yeah! Nicola finds her
mojo!
"After clearing all my debts, (during my
year with
The Money Gym) I took over the
Bristol Pod of
The Cleaning Biz and
so I'm on one lane (Business) of the Wealth
Highway, thanks to Judith's idea. Lane
number 2 is now live with
www.SwiftlySorted.com (already getting requests for
assistance!) and then I will finalise the
gastric banding ebook.
My part-time contract
was extendedby
which time I hope I'll be able to work for
myself full time. I am just so grateful to
everyone who has helped me turn things
around.
On my birthday I spent
some quiet time reflecting upon
the last year and what has changed. And, you
know what, I'm in such a different place.
Never think the Money Gym places are not
appreciated! For me, at that time, my free
place was literally a life line. Yep, there
have been serious hurdles to overcome along
the way but, here I am, the owner of a
business, a second business and website,
and, now that the input into those projects
has eased, I can finish my ebook.
The
Cleaning Biz pod came out of the blue. I
only knew I could have it on the Tuesday and
was in London signing the paperwork on
Friday!
My thinking has moved from that of
'scarcity' to 'abundance'. I know it's all
out there waiting for me to collect. None of
this would have happened without the
mentoring that has
been so generously given through
The Money Gym."

Exciting and F*REE New Way To Get Traffic To Your Blog
by
Nicola Cairncross
I get a lot of email as you can imagine
but I've been cutting back on the lists
I'm on recently, keeping it to only the
internet m*arketers that I really like
and trust, and that consistently deliver
great content.
So when I got an email from one, Mike
Filsaime, telling me about a new product
developed by another, John Reese, that
is f*ree, can get you great traffic -
also for f*ree, and works by using the
power of the internet and viral
marketing in effect, I read the whole
thing, clicked through and signed up.
If you look on our blog,
www.WealthStrategySecrets.com, you
will see a widget that is feeding in the
headlines of relevent blog content, from
other blogs.
I am earning "syndication points" by
having this widget on my blog, which
gives me the right to have my blog shown
on other users blogs, in the same way.
It's Official - Wealth Creation Can Kill
Your Marriage!
by Nicola
Cairncross
The No #1 Killer Of Relationships
As soon as I started to learn about life
coaching and then m*oney management and
w*ealth creation, my marriage came under
immense strain, so I’m talking from
experience and from the heart here.
We recently noticed that a significant
number of our clients end up leaving their
current partner during – or shortly after -
their time in
The Money Gym.
Why is that?
Is it that W*ealth Creation is bad for your
marriage? Should we put an official notice
on our website that says:
Actually no, the rather controversial title
is there to .....
......grab your attention and it obviously
worked rather well, as you are reading this
now!
Seriously, many official surveys into
divorce cite “M*oney” and specifically “D*ebt”
as being in the Top 5 killers of
relationships.
So many couples, when falling in love, don’t
think to explore each others attitudes to
m*oney, debt/c*redit, investing, or even discuss what they want out of life
f*inancially (beyond a holiday home in
Florida perhaps!).
You find out which music you like, what your
favourite food and film is, you talk about
whether you want children, where you want to
live, or go on holiday, but rarely do you
talk about m*oney; your attitudes to it, your
beliefs around it, earning it, spending it,
keeping track of it.
Who Earns It Anyway?
When there is a main breadwinner in the
family, they often think that they can spend
it how they like. After all, they earn it,
don’t they?
The second partner, because they are “not
working” often feels then that they can’t
spend m*oney on themselves and this is
particularly prevalent in people who have
previously earned well, but stop working to
have – or look after - children. They will
spend on the house or the kids, but feel
uncomfortable spending on themselves.
The exception are those with a very high
self esteem, who intrinsically feel they
deserve it (all), or who are trophy
partners, whose actual job it is to keep a
lovely home, perfect children, and looking
good to reflect well on the working partner!
Those aside, creating a home and bringing up
the kids is not really valued by present society,
and as such, many stay-at-home partners feel
that they are not bringing as much to the
marital table as the partner who is often
working long hours and travelling to bring
in the bacon. Like they could do it without
the support systems, right?..
Spend, spend, spend!
Many couples don’t budget at all, they just
judge whether they are doing all right
f*inancially by whether the overdraft gets
bigger or smaller.
"Our truest life is when we are in dreams
awake"
Henry David Thoreau
A note from Nicola
Hi
This week has been all about getting my
writing mojo back and travel
trepidations.
I don’t know what it was, and in spite
of writing a week or two back that I had
brought myself back up to speed by
listening to Rich Schefren audios and
working through some of his exercises, I
was only feeling about 75% not 100%.
I even went to the doctor with a (small)
list of my current worries, as I’ve been
feeling a bit under the weather
healthwise. I have a flickering eye
which is driving me mad – very annoying
when you look at computer screen!
I had a list of articles to write,
staring up at me from my pad, to use to
publicise our "Women Talk Money"
workshop on 5 October, and for the life
of me I couldn’t make myself do it... So
I used an old but effective Mark Forster
time management trick (www.MarkForster.net)
and “just got the file out”
Mark says that, when you have something
to do and you don’t really want to do
it, just say to yourself, you will do
just one thing to move yourself closer
to the job. Then tomorrow you can do one
more thing…..and the next day…..and
eventually momentum takes over and you
do whatever it is.
So on Monday, I thought what one thing
can I do towards writing the first of
these articles……and I decided it was to
mind-map out the main points I wanted to
cover. I use Mindgenius by the way,
lovely software. I’m a neat freak you
see, if I used paper I would have had to
keep starting again when I changed
something, but I did use paper in the
past.
So I started, by “just getting the file
out” and before I knew where I was, the
main points were mapped out, the sub
points, I had hit the button to turn it
into a Word document and it was
practically written!
I called the first one “It’s Official:
W*ealth Creation Can Kill Your Marriage”
a nice controversial title I thought...
I do like a nice controversial title.
I finished that one and went on to write
three more articles that day.
I’m really enjoying writing them as they
are the little known stories that never
make it to the testimonial pages due to
one reason or another – usually shyness
on the part of the person to have their
name up there in public.
They are really bringing a lump to my
throat sometimes and reminding me how
powerful membership of The Money Gym can
be for the right people. I’m calling
them the “Tales of Ordinary Women Doing
Extra Ordinary Things” and you can read
the ones that I have sent out already on
the membership site at
www.TheMoneyGymClub.com.
We are thinking of re-instating the
Google group for Silver, Gold and
MasterMind members; the forums are
starting to get busier but they would be
even more so if we took most of them
public, and would help enormously with
SEO.
And a member of
The Money Gym had a bit
of a wobble on Saturday after a run in
with her soon-to-be-estranged husband
and a rather intransigent mortgage
broker. Due to the low traffic on the
forums, she did not get a reply till
Tuesday which is just not good enough,
in my opinion.
It’s all set up, and I’m just waiting on
the green light from my partners to say
“go” and put the sign up boxes on the
Members Home Pages.
I'm off to Italy on Saturday. I’m feeling
remarkably trepidacious about it and I
can’t quite put my finger on why. Is is
that I’m leaving Steve and the kids for
5 whole days? (they are not bothered and
he’s looking forward to it!)...
Is it that
I feel I really shouldn’t be spending
the money as there are a million
“better” things to do with it?...
Is it
that I have put on a bit of weight and
none of my clothes are quite fitting me
as well as they were in the Summer? (note
to self: must do something serious about
that when I get back)...
Is it that I’m
going with 3 people that I wouldn’t
normally travel with?... but that is the
point of the trip as we never had a trip
together as kids.
Is it that I won’t be
in control or able to come home if I
don’t like it?
My singing sister keeps sending me
weather forecasts and I know she’s just
trying to gee me up and help but it is
disturbing my normal practice of not
thinking about it until I absolutely have
to. Deadline driven, me.
I know I will start enjoying myself the
minute I get on the plane (being a
practical sort I will know deep down
there is no going back so I might as
well get on with it) so what is it? I
feel like this every time I have to go
away now. Perhaps it’s that it’s been
such a turbulent few years, I like the
sameness and security blanket of little
old Shoreham-By-Sea.
You never know, it might jolt me into
loving the travel thing, which, as I’ve
decided “a la 4 Hour Work Week” I want
to travel the world when I don’t work at
all, might be a GOOD THING.
Talking of travel, Judith is entering
the final phases of preparation for the
“Women Talk Money” workshop and tickets
are selling fast, with someone signing
up every day now.
She is gathering prizes for the
competitions, the workbook for the day
now has all it’s content, she has
corralled me into revealing my “Top 7
Secrets About W*ealth Creation” which
ended up, as is my wont, to be “Top 10
Secrets” and she seems to have dragooned
a client of hers, who is a top ex-event
organiser (property investor now) into
helping.
My other sister Sarah, the editor of
this ezine, sent me this beautiful song
by Kate Nash .... The Nicest
Thing... bought a lump to our throats
*smile*...

going....
