 <title>Why the Law of Attraction Doesn’t Work</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/why-law-attraction-doesn-t-work</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Dallas is a beautiful town, I think.  I wouldn’t know because I’ve been in a  hotel conference boardroom with a speaker client doing a 2 Day Turnaround session to clarify her business message and clear her head.  We’re knee deep in “stuff” and it’s a blast getting everything organized into a plan.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Getting ready to get ready</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/getting-ready-get-ready</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Stuck is not a fun place to be.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet for so many, stuck seems to be a state that is stubbornly present, even defeating in the lives of so many.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You know, the web site tweak that just has to be done before you&lt;br /&gt;
promote, the sales script that needs to have every word perfect before&lt;br /&gt;
you make the call, the distraction of finding something new to create&lt;br /&gt;
instead of focusing on the thing that’s in front of you.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; And the&lt;br /&gt;
worst of all – just not knowing what to do next.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s the Getting Ready to Get Ready syndrome.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Slow down to speed up</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/slow-down-speed</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Just finished watching the movie Peaceful Warrior.&amp;nbsp; (If you haven’t&lt;br /&gt;
seen it, go grab a copy at the DVD store.&amp;nbsp; It’s one you’ll want to see&lt;br /&gt;
more than once).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the movie, Dan, the main character, has a very busy life. He’s a&lt;br /&gt;
young college student and athlete, bound for the Olympics, he trains&lt;br /&gt;
hard, plays hard and gets good grades.&amp;nbsp; A certain feeling of uneasiness&lt;br /&gt;
comes over him about his life, something he’s never had before.&amp;nbsp; He&lt;br /&gt;
seeks the counsel of a wise elder who begins to show him the way.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Accidental Millionaire – the Next Chapter</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/accidental-millionaire-next-chapter</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;It was a room filled with about 300 networking engineers.&amp;nbsp; True&lt;br /&gt;
geeks, that’s for sure.&amp;nbsp; I was there in the room to deliver a training&lt;br /&gt;
to these high-level engineers about a subject they all loved – TCP/IP.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As the training went on, I discussed protocol, troubleshooting,&lt;br /&gt;
hacking (oh excuse me, I meant to say “breaking down patterns to&lt;br /&gt;
achieve entry into a network”) ARP, RARP, PING and a hundred other&lt;br /&gt;
protocols.&amp;nbsp; We talked hexadecimal and binary numbering systems, packet&lt;br /&gt;
loss and router tables.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Exciting stuff when you’re a geeky engineer.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>What happens when you “What if?”</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/what-happens-when-you-what-if</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;It was 3:30 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, and I was walking out of the&lt;br /&gt;
movie theater with a giant knot in the pit of my stomach.&amp;nbsp; I had just&lt;br /&gt;
seen the movie “2012″.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Who’s in charge? </title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/who-s-charge</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Over&amp;nbsp;the years,&amp;nbsp;I’ve been doing a lot more life coaching (which I&lt;br /&gt;
absolutely LOVE) helping people over panic, anxiety, worry, fear and&lt;br /&gt;
self-confidence challenges, along with a host of other emotional and&lt;br /&gt;
mental challenges that keep you stuck and feeling alone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I used to think that getting things done was all “mind over matter”,&lt;br /&gt;
but not now.&amp;nbsp; You see, you already have inside of you all of the&lt;br /&gt;
resources you need to get what you want, change what you want and be&lt;br /&gt;
who you want.&amp;nbsp; (I know, it’s sometimes hard to believe, but it’s true).&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>“Something’s got to change….”</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/something-s-got-change</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Every year about this time, I start thinking about what my theme&lt;br /&gt;
word will be for next year.&amp;nbsp; Then, in December, I will take the last 2&lt;br /&gt;
weeks and reflect, review and clean up whatever I need to in order to&lt;br /&gt;
keep thing rolling.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This year has definitely been a year of high-impact change.&amp;nbsp; (Funny,&lt;br /&gt;
when I added that to our mission statement to help others create&lt;br /&gt;
high-impact change in the shortest amount of time, I guess I was really&lt;br /&gt;
talking to myself.&amp;nbsp; Oh well, glad you’re here along for the ride!)&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Living Your Purpose and Mission – A Three Step Plan</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/living-your-purpose-and-mission-thr</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Are you living your purpose? Do you know your mission?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“What am I here for?&amp;nbsp; What is my&lt;br /&gt;
purpose, in this lifetime?” You may be asking yourself these&lt;br /&gt;
questions.&amp;nbsp; More and more people are these days. There have been&lt;br /&gt;
hundreds of books written on this important and debatable subject.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>What do you want?</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/stephanie-frank/5-things-you-must-know-about-sudden-success/what-do-you-want</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“What do you want?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I call this the four words that move&lt;br /&gt;
you forward. I find that most people have never really taken the time&lt;br /&gt;
to sit down and ask themselves this question, and then not only see&lt;br /&gt;
themselves with what it is they really want, but imagine their future&lt;br /&gt;
with no limits. Can you do it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Now ask yourself – if you had a future with no limits…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
