My Secrets of Success: Tips on Entrepreneurship, Relationships, Motherhood and Living Adventurously. Part 1

I am often asked, “how do you do it, Allison? How do you create success in your life?” I had to really meditate on these questions when I began life and business coaching. Honestly, I had created a success system in my life through running 9 businesses, creating joy in my life, finding my soulmate and staying healthy and fit without much awareness of the steps or practices I was taking. They had become second nature, like an evolved rhythm that had caught it’s stride through time and experience. It’s kind of like driving a car. Once you master the basics and get some driving experience, you do not question where the gas peddle is, or how to find park on your stick shift. You just do it. (Parallel parking is another story!) But when I began teaching and mentoring, I couldn’t say, “I don’t know. I just do it.”  So I spent a great deal of time dissecting my unconscious thoughts, behaviors, actions, wins and losses, (yes, losses are a valuable part of the journey) to create my signature step-by-step strategies Read more »

If You Had No Fear, How High Would You Fly?

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU KNEW YOU COULD NOT FAIL?

• Would you venture out on a new career or start a new business?
• Would you stop choosing unhealthy relationships?
• Would you stop settling in life because you finally realize you deserve better?
• Would you face the issues in your relationship and do what it takes to make it the best ever?
• Would you re-kindle that childhood dream and finally make it a reality?
• Would you finally figure out what your passion is and bring it into your everyday life?
• Would you challenge yourself to increase your finances to a whole new level?
• Would you walk away from all the drama in your life?
• Would you choose happiness over worry, anger and grief?

THE HARM IS IN YOUR HEAD

Believe it or not, your life could completely transform if you began to walk through the fear and make completely new and healthy choices The only harm upon you are the thoughts of fear swimming in your head like a whirlpool. The mental torture that grips you is the most painful reality of all.

Yes. Your biggest fears are merely a figment of your delusional reality!

You have either adopted someone else’s fear, watched it on television, or you were raised in a home that shared the fear freely. If each anticipated obstacle

Dreams Really Do Come True….

Bear with me. This is not my usual inspirational post. I felt the need to share a bit of good news…

I am still spinning from last week’s Blast Off book launch and touched so deeply by your incredible outpouring of support. As we watched the stats climb on January 19th to #1 on the best seller list in several categories on Amazon US and Canada (including entrepreneurial and hot new releases- entrepreneurial), and hit the best seller list in Motivational and Success books on Amazon US, Canada and UK. I was jumping up and down and screaming like a kid on her 5th birthday!  The experience has been completely surreal. Literally, a dream come true.

I assure you that this would not have happened without you. I can write all day long, but if no one buys my book and reads it, my words will just sit on the page and not impact anyone.

www.myblastoff.com/booklaunch

After 2 years of intense dedication to my Blast Off book, Workbook and Blastation software, it has been incredibly gratifying to get this phenomenal response. We often put our heart and soul into something, (and some blood, sweat and tears), and wonder if anything will come of it. So allow me be a mirror for you. If you stick with your dream, and give it the passion and effort it needs to grow, you will flourish in your personal life, your work, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. It is not about the money. It is not about the accolades. It is about the personal satisfaction you’ll receive from giving your very best effort, regardless of the outcome. The rest is the cherry on top.

I just wanted to send you a giant heartfelt thank you. As I said before, the power of a group moves mountains, and in this case, Mount Everest shifted at least a mile! Now I cannot wait to hear your thoughts once you read my book, and hopefully lots of great personal and professional stories of change. Please send me a note. I truly hope Blast Off! lights a fire under your feet to take action and embrace your life goals and visions.

Here is what one reader just e-mailed me:

“ I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful book! It is fantastic, inspirational and presented in a way that I think all readers will understand, regardless of their journey. I am sure your book will touch many people’s lives.”  ~ Julie Santella

If you have not purchased my book, Blast Off!, yet, you can still receive the over 20 amazing bonus gifts until Friday, January 29th. The top authors and coaches that teamed up with me for my launch were so blown away by the response that it was not hard to twist their arms to extend their amazing offer a few more days. Just click this link below for your copy and valuable gifts.

PS. I am headed on a cross country book tour in February and March to Phoenix, Charlotte, New York City, Chicago, Seattle and Los Angeles. Pass the word to your friends and relatives in those cities. Join my Facebook Fan Page and check my website for dates and event information. I am looking for someone in each city to head their own Blast Off Launching group. I will be back in San Diego in between each stop to take care of my wonderful homeopathic and coaching clients, and my awesome husband!

Much love and gratitude,

Allison

Author Launches Her Dreams Into Reality  by Waterside Productions, Inc.

If you think the slow economy and hard times are killing off people’s dreams, think again! Author Allison Maslan, an entrepreneur for the last 25 years and creator of 9 of her own companies, now coaches others –women in particular– to become successful career professionals or start their own businesses and become thriving entrepreneurs themselves. Since January 2009 Allison has helped launch over 12 businesses. Allison herself has owned nine businesses including her own advertising/public relations firm.

And now, she has launched her own book, Blast Off! The Surefire Success Plan To Launch Your Dreams Into Reality( Morgan James/2010)In her book, Allison shares the secrets to her own success and inspires readers to move forward with their dreams.

How to stop settling and move past your fears to create a life of unlimited possibilities?

Steps to Answering the Question: What Path Should I Take?

How to create a dream career that you can feel excited to get up for each morning?

Allison’s goal is to help people answer the burning question – “Do you want to be in the same place you are now in ten years?” Allison says that you’ll just be asking yourself that question years for another decade if you don’t’ take action now. What are you waiting for?

So remember: Life continues, publishing is still alive, dreams still come true.

Blast Off To A Brand New Life!

Are there any areas in your life that you are limiting yourself? Be totally honest.  In your career, is there something you would just LOVE to be doing, but have no idea how to make it happen? Or maybe you feel intimidated to even try? What if you knew that your new venture or challenge would be a sure thing. You would go for it. Wouldn’t you?

In your relationship, have you settled in your choices because you’re afraid you might not find anyone better? Do you stay in your current relationship because of fear?

There are 3 key barriers that tend to hold people back from venturing out into the wild blue yonder.

Fear. Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of being judged, fear of the unknown, fear of loss of security, fear of not enjoying your choices…I could go on.

Disconnection from Passion. You know that feeling. The one that fills you up with bubbles of excitement and satisfaction. Often hard to get there when you have felt stuck, held back, trapped for some time.

Lack of direction. You may not be afraid. You may know exactly what you want to do. But you have no idea how to make it happen. This is not an uncommon scenario.

Can you relate? I want to hear from you….tell me your stories.

What if you had a book that helped you solve the mystery to all three barriers? I know where you would be right now.

Dancing in the streets!

In my book, Blast Off! The Surefire Success Plan To Launch Your Dreams Into Reality, that is being released on January 19th, I unlock the mystery of  ”what is holding you back from living the life you truly desire.” Then, together, I help you put one step in front of the other as we devise a new plan. Your very own roadmap to a brand new life.

” Blast Off really helps the reader break through their barriers of fear, guides them to tap into their deeper passions, and then gives them the tools to create a step-by-step roadmap toward their big picture visions in their personal and professional life. Then they know exactly what to do on a daily basis to move these dreams from their head into reality. ~ Allison Maslan

Don’t Let 2009 Pass Without A True Goodbye

What Memories of 2009 Do You Want to Acknowledge?

Is Your Strive For Perfection Choking You?

Are you living your life to the fullest at this moment in time? Do you have the life that you have always dreamed of? If so, congratulations! Meditate a few moments each day on the goodness that you have experienced from your great fortune. If your answer is no, it is never too late to start.

So many of my coaching clients tell me they don’t reach their goals because they want everything perfect before they move forward. They are striving for perfection and it is killing them. What is the point of “perfect” any way? They want a perfectly clean house, to say the perfect words and to do perfect work at all times. Pressure filled expectations are a sure way to turn any goal into a ball and chain. Many people resist attempting new challenges or setting new goals because they are afraid they will not perform up to their ridiculous expectations. The result, Read more »

58 Days And Counting… Say No To Others and Yes To You!

Only 58 days left until my book, Blast Off! The Surefire Success Plan To Launch Your Dreams Into Reality is launched to Amazon and all major bookstores in the US. This has been a long journey, and I have learned so much. People ask me if I am excited and I say, “Yes, I cannot wait.” They don’t really know the depth of that “yes”. Let me make it more clear.  It is like being pregnant and waiting two years to have your baby. So, YES, I AM EXCITED AND SO READY!!!

In most of my business ventures, including writing this book, I have come up against opposition. Opposition in the form of, ” You are not going to really do that are you? Who do you think you are to start that business? It is going to be really hard to stay in business in this economy. Are you sure you want to do that? You don’t have time to write a book. There are already so many self-help books out there. Aren’t you concerned about that? Read more »

66 days and counting…You Can Live The Dream

For the past 15 years I have been in the field of helping people progress to a better life. As a homeopathic physician,  I have seen clients move from despair to embracing life, from pain to living with peace and ease. I have been blessed to be a healing force for many families and have delighted in watching their children grow into amazing young men and women. As an entrepreneur of 9 businesses, I would say that I have a knack for business. I love the challenge and creativity that business yields. Coaching was the perfect  evolvement for me to offer my healing and business capabilities to others to find their path to success and fulfillment.

I am driven to help people find their potential within themselves and the world around them.   It is truly is a source of frustration when I see that they are holding themselves back from living a much more joyous life full of love and opportunity.

That is why two years ago this February, I sat down to write my book, Blast Off! I want people to understand why they limit themselves from feeling consistent joy in their careers, relationships, personal and spiritual lives. I want them to understand that they can move past living in survival mode and move to a state of abundance. In my book Blast Off, I teach how to make this powerful shift as I share my step-by-step formula to turn your dream into reality. Blast Off is strategy meets inspiration meets creativity meets clear direction.

So many people come to me to make a change in their lives, but have no idea what that could be or how to make it happen. Read more »
