Resources for Social Change

July 21, 2014

Hi everybody! Welcome to another episode of Wealth Unplugged - the podcast which gives you the diamond tips from my Feminine Wealth TV interviews so that you can learn quick bites from anywhere. In this week's episode I interviewed Margaret Barry, founder of Bali Children Fund and expert on channeling resources for social change !

Here are my key takeaways from the interview:

Takeaway #1 - Persistence

We all think we're persistent but most of us aren't! Margaret had to really push through to achieve business success when she started in Bali and puts her success down to dogged persistence. In this day of instant gratification, many people are not cultivating resilience to the point where they will persist in order to succeed.

Takeaway #2 - You have to mine your opportunities

When opportunity knocks, you have to get off you ass and open the door! Be watching for opportunities and be prepared to take them. Some of the greatest opportunities are often lying within your own network - are you asking the right questions of the contacts and resources you already know?

Takeaway #3 - Sometimes you have to dream big - then you have to go and find the money to make it happen!

Decide on the dream first - it's a great way of re-framing! Then go out and mine those opportunities with persistence on your side...
I'd love to hear from you - what did you get from the show?
