• About Sandy

I’ve just returned from some fabulous meetings in New York, the weather was absolutely amazing!

I’m in a deep, deep writing retreat for the next week, working on the finishing touches of 2 brand new and oh!-so-amazing-products... Can’t wait to show you! So, this week I’m including one of the most talked about ezines articles I’ve ever written. “The Hot Mogul Quiz”. It was so popular we put it on the home page of my website!

This article addresses what exactly a mogul is *and* I have a quiz (just like Cosmo!) for you to take to determine if you’re a Hot Mogul.

I’m also announcing that I have a coveted spot available in my VIP Coaching Program, if you’re ready for a major UPGRADE in your lifestyle and your performance- you can download the application below.

“Are You a Hot Mogul? Take the Quiz and Find Out”

So first of all, what exactly is a mogul? Dictionary.com gives us this definition:

An important, powerful, or influential person: A very rich or powerful person; a magnate. a mogul of the movie industry.

I heard Kimora Lee Simmons (Baby Phat) use it in the intro to her reality show. She said something like “I’m a model, a mogul and a mom.” I liked how it sounded so I looked it up. It’s become something of a game amongst my friends, “let’s be Hot Moguls” ~ we added “doing work we love and giving back to the world in a MAJOR way.”

Take my quiz to find out if you’re already a Hot Mogul or if you’re on your way to getting there. Once you’ve tallied your points, I’ve got some tips for developing your Hot Mogul-ness. Send me your results and any more Hot Mogul Tips you come up with! We’ll be awarding the Hot Mogul Award in an upcoming issue- (there’s a prize!) so send us your entry- tell us why you are a Hot Rock Star Mogul.

My intention is to surround myself with lots of Hot *Rock Star* Moguls- who lift me up, inspire me to play Bigger in my life and give their gifts, talents and abundance back to the world. I hope you’ll join me!

3 Tips for Developing your Inner Mogul:

1. Be Brave and Daring: When you feel those butterflies zooming around your belly, you know you’re on the right track. Take a deep breath and channel your favorite Hot Mogul (Richard Branson, Oprah, J-Lo??? Who else qualifies in your mind?)


2. Take a Chance, Take a Chance: Good things come to those who wait, but not to those who wait too late! It’s good to weigh your options, but sometimes you just gotta JUMP! And the net will appear. Hot Moguls take calculated risks and learn from all of their experiences, the good, the bad and the ugly.


3. Don’t Stop Thinkin’ About Tomorrow: No matter what, keep going, keep taking steps in the direction of your dreams. Keep moving toward your Big Vision. Yes, there will be obstacles. The Universe will test you. It’s really asking: “Are you sure you want this?” Your only job is to keep going, do not stop, stay connected to that wise place inside of you that knows the next step. Then go Take Action.
