What’s one of the biggest excuses you give for not going after your dreams? Would it happen to be ‘I don’t have the time.’ Welcome to the world of excuses that stop most people from achieving their goals. Jim Rohn described these excuses as the thorns that choke us and become impenetrable. It’s drawn from the parable in Matthew 13. That parable has taken on so much more meaning now that I am involved in explaining the process of deliberate creation to people. No one sets out to fail when they start something new, but they do. The statistics sound amazing. 70% will start, but never finish a new business, a new course of study. Why? We don’t really know – and as Jim Rohn would put it, don’t take that course. Don’t sign up for it. We just don’t know.

So, when so few people are able to follow through on their goals even when they invest lots of time and money, it feels good to be able to highlight success stories. On Monday, April 2nd at 11:00am (Pacific), I will be speaking with Steven Lenchner, founder of Lenchner Glass. What is special about Steven is that he has founded a fused glass business while he has been working as a line producer in the entertainment industry. Believe me, as someone who also works in the industry, it’s a very time intensive endeavor. So I was fascinated to learn from Steven just how he found the time to first learn the craft of fused glass, spend hours to create a body of work which he now displays and offers for sale, and pass the craft on to others who might enjoy it. Steven markets his art to architects, designers, decorators, and individuals who would like custom art pieces.

It is possible to successfully pursue your passion. Tune in for the live feed at 11:00am on April 2nd on BlogTalkRadio or check out the archived programs at your leisure. It’s currently called Susan Sherayko Online.

Testimonials

“A modern-day Siddhartha. Rainbows Over Ruins walks you through a spiritual journey that is not focused on the ‘out there’ but more on the ‘in here.’ How do we transition from one phase of our lives while allowing ourselves to grow from what we have learned from the past? Susan helps you help yourself.”

“When the Producers Guild of America merged with the American Producers of America, limited benefits were available for a fast growing membership. Susan Sherayko stepped in and created the most successful enrichment programs possible for the PGA. She became the Chairperson of the Seminar programs and was able to offer the membership an opportunity to learn the essentials of how to be a better producer of TV, Motion Pictures and Syndication for many leaders and icons in our industry. The subject matter was vast as each seminar attempted to instruct the producers in a vast array of subjects. Susan produced or was responsible for the vision of this stellar committee. Turnout of attendees for these seminars was consistently gratifying in both in numbers and approvals. The legacy of Susan’s organizational skills and execution is exemplified by the continuing programs being offered today for the PGA membership…now over 4000 members strong. Thanks, Susan, I personally enjoyed attending your seminars and afterwards felt more confident and wiser. ”

“Calm, Serenity, Wisdom, Patience, Empathy. These are the characteristics that I think of, when I think of you. Throughout our relationship, you have always “shared only and freely” with me. You have never been judgmental (of anyone really) or unkind with words. Your ability to take in all the information surrounding a situation, process it in a kind, loving and logical way and then interpret the information back in such a way that I feel that I too can learn and grow from the experience, whether it was mine or not. Susan, I believe that you are a conduit, maybe not the right word…a channel…o.k. I laymen’s terms, you are the glue that holds us all together. If I were ever in a crisis…I’d want you to be with me more than anyone I know.”
