Looking upstream from where we went swimming

My friend Brenda just left a few hours ago and I have several hundred pictures to remember the week by. I could write countless newsletters and teach a weekend workshop just on what we learned, experienced and the challenges we faced. We had a marvelous time together, laughing and playing, sharing and growing. I love friends that also lead amazing lives and are so genuinely positive to be around.
Yesterday we hiked a little known trail outside of Sedona and ended up at this fabulous swimming hole. Greg and I had done the hike when he was here but I didn´t have my camera with me. It was much easier the second time around as I knew where we were going.
One of the more challenging aspects of Sedona is that the signage for trails is very poor. It´s absolutely crazy how inadequate the signage is considering that tourism is a primary industry in the state. It really makes me appreciate even more that we need to look at our businesses, our websites, our blogs, our order forms and everything else that we count on to bring us clients from THEIR standpoint, not ours.
Someone who lives here, has hiked a trail a hundred times may know how to find it but if you´re counting on someone new to the area finding it without good signage, you leave people frustrated and disappointed. It has been one of the most common comments I have heard from tourists here: Where´s the signs?
It´s hard to believe that I have less than 2 months left in Sedona. Still lots to do and see, hikes to walk, and places to visit. Lots of work to get accomplished as well. New websites, new workshop, new programs, and a new book this fall. What an amazing life!
How are you doing? If you´re feeling a bit lost and looking for some signposts in your life, sit down and talk with a coach, a friend or a business associate. Having someone to chat with, go over things with, discuss things with and brainstorm with is one of the greatest gifts you can be given or you can give. Don´t be shy. Ask for help. We all need it. I ask for directions, guidance and feedback daily. You´ll move much faster in creating your amazing life, if you get some help along the way.
