When The Stars Align
27/03/2019 Duración: 09minWhen I booked a super early-bird ticket to SuperFastBusiness Live last year, little did I realise that not only would I manifest not just one, but two speaking gigs to cover my costs and more, but also the use of a luxury flat overlooking Sydney Harbour!

Who Do You Take Advice From?
13/03/2019 Duración: 09minI've been feeling a bit downhearted this week after two bits of robust feedback, one of which made me feel told off and one of which made me feel a bit useless at something I'm working hard to learn. I shared how I felt with a friend, who is actually spectacularly successful at this thing and he immediately pulled me up and reminded me that I need only take feedback from people who have successfully done what I want to do, quite frankly, nobody else's opinion counts. It's going to be an interesting balancing act going forwards.... Clicks And Leads is a "tongue in cheek" digital marketing Vzine by entrepreneur, author, podcaster, speaker, Nicola Cairncross.

What’s Stopping You?
20/02/2019 Duración: 09minWhat's stopping you getting started with something you want to do? Are you sure you really, really want to do it? There's always a good reason not to do things - especially the things you don't really want to do. This week I've had to force myself through several things I didn't want to do, my brain was telling me I had good reasons not to do them but they weren't reasons at all, they were EXCUSES!

Deep Dive Learning
13/02/2019 Duración: 10minWhat is the best way to learn something new? Nicola recommends "deep dive" or "immersion" learning, where you consume everything you can about the topic as quickly as possible then take action. Learning something as if you are going to have to teach it to someone else is a great technique too.

Personality Disorders In Business
06/02/2019 Duración: 11minNicola's musing, not for the first time, on how important it is to know yourself in business. She reveals some of her less attractive personality quirks and how they manifest in her business life. If you recognise yourself in any of this business behaviour, you might do well to hire a mentor/coach, as talking it through with someone usually helps. A good mentor/coach is not just there for the business strategy / tactics, but to support you work through the emotional side of things too!

Questions Make You Think Differently
30/01/2019 Duración: 08minIn a week when just about everything that could go wrong DID go wrong, Nicola's taking her place on a rota of driving and cooking duties for a dear friend's husband, but a chance conversation with someone who asked some great questions, helped her think differently about how to handle a tricky project and her stress levels have dropped dramatically as a consequence. Who can you have a conversation with that might help you think differently about something you are worrying about?

Living With Uncertainty
16/01/2019 Duración: 09minHaving been watching the comments in a big marketer's Facebook Lives, I'm struck by how people are always seeking certainty before taking action. Will it work for me / my business, will it work in my niche, will it work in my country? The limiting / negative beliefs and sweeping generalisations were coming thick and fast. This is in direct contrast to how I work, where I'll take an idea and get the "minimal viable version" up and running and just test, test, test! I'm actually testing using Facebook Live to record the middle part of my vzine each week now, so that I can test Social Media Examiner's assertions that Facebook Lives are a waste of time after the event, while Frank Kern says the exact opposite.

Self Awareness
09/01/2019 Duración: 05minNew Year is a good time to make new beginnings and my daughter Phoebe has decided to look for a job at a digital marketing company or other business media company. I've been running her through a few tests, all designed to enhance her self awareness. I have a good idea of her personality but there might still be some surprises. It's important to know who you are, so that you don't go applying for jobs that you would be ill-suited for or worse, that you would hate!

5 Little Questions
26/12/2018 Duración: 10minEvery year I get my journal out and ask myself "5 Little Questions" and I write and write until I cannot write any more.

What’s Your Alternative?
05/12/2018 Duración: 09minOn my live Clicks & Leads Academy calls I allow my clients a couple of minutes to have a quick moan. And when my best friend Kim and I meet up, we allow ourselves 15 minutes. But then we ask ourselves a very important couple of questions that help us turn things around. Because nobody likes someone who continually moans but doesn't take action. I also reveal a handy tool for finding out what you DO want, if you are not sure.
