One Thing They Don’t Tell You About Motivation

September 11, 2017 by Lindsay Teague Moreno Leave a Comment

I recently got a couple of emails in a row saying things like, “I can’t find the motivation to do stuff! Can you please help me find my motivation?”

I was like, “uuuuuhhhhhhhmmmmmm.”

I don’t have an answer for that.

Because, honestly, I don’t think motivation is real.

I never FEEL motivated. In the last 4 years I haven’t felt like doing any other job besides mine. If given the choice between a Netflix bing with ice cream or working though? OF COURSE I’d rather sit around.

Motivation isn’t real.

I’d always rather choose the easy choice. And so would most people.

However, if I want to get what I want out of my life, I better get to work because I haven’t found a way to make watching Netflix pay me real dollars.


I think the problem with the questions above is that those people haven’t found that real reason to get their butts up and make something work for them.They quit because they get bored, or are scared, or have self-doubt, or care what others think or any other of the 19,386 reasons your brain will give before they make something theirs.

They quit and think, “well, it must not have been for me” or “I just wasn’t motivated enough by this person to keep going.”

Motivation isn’t real.

Just like you have had to choose to work every day, if you want to get stuff done, you will have to keep making that choice to find your success or to find what it is you’re working for. You have to exhaust all your efforts and then take a break to recharge. But then, guess what? You’ll have to choose again the next day or week.

Choosing is sometimes pretty easy and sometimes really freaking hard.

It’s never going to be the right time to make a business your thing. You’re never going to have all the stars align to make sure that you’re successful.

You’re going to have to choose over and over and over again to keep working toward what it is you want. So it better be a dang good reason to keep putting yourself out there.

What is yours? Name it. Write it down. Study it. Think of it every time you want to choose something easy vs. something that could actually make you better.

XOXO,

One Easy Trick For Getting More Interaction On Social Media

September 1, 2017 by Lindsay Teague Moreno 1 Comment

The other day I shared a little bit of my story and why I do what I do on InstaStories. (if you’re not following me on Instagram yet, I’d love to connect!)

I’ve said it a million times before, but I love my job and you can tell when I’m talking about it.

I got more interaction on my emotion toward what I do than anything else.

We like to see joy and excitement pour out of people when they talk about their craft or their career or their passions.

Remember that.

People want to be a part of true and real joy.

Are you communicating that in your business?

Let’s not get so caught up in striving to grow we forget to communicate how much we love what we get to do.

XO,

The Space Between

August 10, 2017 by Lindsay Teague Moreno 2 Comments

This is the portrait Jeremy Cowart took of me on Friday night.

As we sit on the plane ready to take off for 2 other small work trips, I’m still trying to put my finger on the answer to his question that should accompany the image.

He asked, us to describe our in-between. Liminal means “the space between,” and you can see that light represents just that. So what am I in the middle of right now?

As a person that constantly finds herself in new situations creatively and professionally, I feel like I am always in between the beginning and end of a project. Always.

As a whole though, I find myself in a holding pattern as I take on the biggest ask of my career. Writing a book for an audience that spans outside of my normal following. I’m dipping into a larger group of women to see if I can’t do some good there — to see if I can’t help some moms that may normally say no get their business ideas off the ground.

I’m between my role as a sales person, marketer, and leader and a role as a writer and speaker. If I’m being honest it’s really scary because insecurity and lots of hours. It’s also really exciting — hence the hidden, huge grin on my face. Who knows what 2018 brings, I’m just trusting that God’s upstairs opening the right doors for me at the right time. I’m ready to go.

I’d like to take the time to thank all of you for your love and support no matter how you found me here on social media. I’m excited we have connected and I hope to always bring value to your time.

XO,

She Designed A Life She Loved

August 8, 2017 by Lindsay Teague Moreno 1 Comment

Sometimes I wake up and I am so grateful that I don’t have to feel like hiding from my day. Sometimes I take it for granted and forget what that felt like.

Have you ever had a job like that? Where you just dreaded getting up in the morning and going to work? Me too.

For three years I have loved the life that Michael Moreno and I designed. One where we never get that gut-wrenching Sunday night feeling. One where the weekend often comes too quick. I mean, I love Mondays you guys. Love them and look forward to them.

What is your heart calling you to do? You should design a life around that. Find a way to make your passions, skills and gifts your life’s work. Find a way to let those things pay your bills. You can do it. You might be like me, where you look back and realize it is also the hardest you have ever worked but you’ll love every hard part. I promise you will.

 

What’s your best talent, skill or gifting? What is something you can confidently tell me you do well?

Be bold. I want to hear it. Mine is saying the thing most people won’t. Now the key is working that “thing” into your business and sharing it with the world.

Go. Do.

XO,

Getting Noticed Book, Coming Soon!

December 3, 2016 by Lindsay Teague Moreno 2 Comments

My first book was published this week.

It’s called Getting Noticed.

Getting Noticed Book by Lindsay Teague Moreno

It is a no-nonsense guide to standing out and selling more for momtrepreneurs who ‘ain’t got time for that’.

This book started as a PDF guide and as I was writing it it turned into so much more than just a PDF. It turned into a book. The words just flowed out of me and I overshot my word limit real fast.

So, this wanted to be a book and a book it did become.

This book is for every kind of momtrepreneur. Makers, sellers and doers of all types will be able to use this book to create more traction for your business online and grow their business. Everyone from the Etsy shop owner to the direct saleswoman to the photographer will be able to use this book as a guide to their own success. I took my successes and failures and put them into this book to show you exactly how I was able to create a multi-million dollar business completely online.

I am so excited to see this change businesses around the world and watch people actually connect online. I’m tired of seeing great businesses lose the sale to big box stores. We can do better and this book is going to show you how because we need your product and your perspective in our world.

This book will be available exclusively on Amazon. Make sure you’re following me on Instagram for updates on when it’s available for sale!

Getting Noticed Book by Lindsay Teague Moreno

Here’s the description:

You don’t have time for another “change everything you’re doing on social media and be just like me” book. You need information and you need it fast. Do you want to grow your following, sell more product, and experience the freedom that comes along with being your own boss?

Getting Noticed isn’t the “secret to social media” – it’s a no fluff, take charge guide to the way we present ourselves, our business, and connect with customers online.

Lindsay Teague Moreno knows the hardcore mom life. In between wash cycles, putting kids to bed for the fifth time, and balancing a to-do list that would make Santa jealous, she grew a business from nothing into a team of over 300,000 people producing over $15,000,000 each month in just three years. Lindsay knows you don’t have time for another book that leaves you with temporary warm fuzzies but no real content to actually building your business. Getting noticed is the first step to entrepreneurial success in our fast-paced, online world. Step up your game.

A Child Bride

October 21, 2015 by Lindsay Teague Moreno 7 Comments

Here’s something you should know about me up front, I’m not a birthday person. I think it’s great when other people are, it’s just not how I was raised. So birthday parties are always an afterthought for my kiddos. I much prefer to celebrate Christmas in a big way. I do try to give my kids a little family celebration with a cake and a theme.  Each year, I decorate the table after they go to sleep so they can feel special when they wake up.

This year, for her 5th birthday, Addy (her name is Kennedy but we gave her the nickname Addy so people wouldn’t shorten her name to “Ken”) wanted a wedding theme. Yea, you read that right, she wanted to be a bride. A visit to etsy while on the road, a party store and hobby lobby back at home and we were set. She was going to marry her daddy and “it would be cute,” I thought. I didn’t expect the kind of emotion it pulled out of this self-proclaimed cold mom. I’m not really “cold,” that’s dramatic, I think, but I’m not in-touch with them feels that many women carry on their sleeves.  Not on this day, though.

It’s little unexpected moments like this that make me breathe deep and know that I am so blessed to have the kids I do. Sometimes they drive me straight to the loony bin (and I’m not sugar coating that…sometimes I don’t like being a mom) but every once in a while I feel so overwhelmed with love and pride I can’t breathe. Today was one of those moments. As I took this picture I cried into the back of my camera.

How is she mine? How is she so grown up? How will I make the most of the last 13 years I have with her in my house? How can I keep this feeling?

Child Bride Wedding 5th Birthday Party

I can see myself in 20 years pulling out these pictures of my little baby as she’s about to get married (if she decides she wants to…no pressure from me). I can see me crying then just like I did today as I watched her pretend to be grown up. I saw a glimpse of my future today and it was so sweet and beautiful.

Here are the pictures from the day. We tried to do everything a real bride would do on her wedding day:
