5. Business Plans That Work – Why Some Do and Most Don’t by Cynthia Kocialski
   Over the years, Cynthia Kocialski packed her bags and relocated again and again so she could hone her technical marketing, engineering, management and planning skills alongside the best and the brightest in corporations such as IBM and Matrox. Kocialski’s career blossomed as she earned serious tech cred in a variety of positions located in NYC, Washington D.C., Miami and Silicon Valley. Never satisfied with the status quo, Kocialski took action when the entrepreneurial bug bit and never once looked back. She founded three companies, served on advisory boards and helped various start-ups take flight. These start-ups have collectively returned billions of dollars to investors. Cynthia has literally been there, done that and wrote the book on starting up your own business with the intention of helping other entrepreneurs start up their business the right way! Her core experience lies in that she has witnessed all the different aspects of start-up life: the, good, the bad and the ugly. She knows what works and what doesn’t from first-hand experience. Following the traditional advice to “write what you know,” Kocialski authored Startup from the Ground Up, Out of the Classroom Lessons in Success, A Simple Sales Guide for Start-ups, and Your Company as a Business Experiment. Kocialski holds degrees from the University of Rochester and the University of Virginia, and presently edits and blogs on the Start-up Entrepreneurs’ Blog.
6. Bad Reviews: How to Make Good Use of Feedback
   Joy and happiness are two wonders that keep increasing all the time, the more we share them! So I am delighted to share my experiences, skills and abilities through my books, trances, workshops, and coachings with more and more people. I have trained with and learned from Richard Bandler, Paul McKenna, Patrick Porter and other leading NLP-Master-trainers and am certified with the Society of NLP as NLP-trainer and NLP-coach. “You go first!” This motto has been leading me through my life and I am thankful that I have accepted full responsibility for my own thoughts, my own feelings, my own life and so I am experiencing moments of a deep, wonderful and ever increasing happiness each day. I am emotionally successful: I am healthy and fit, I do things I love to do each and every day, I love living, laughing and to travel and do it a lot, I am curious and fall in love over and over again – with life and my wonderful wife and partner Chris Pape with whom I am living in a wonderful loving relationship for more than 20 years now – living, working and loving together. The two of us help people to tame their tension tigers and to move from being stressed out to feeling good and being emotionally successful. I love, write and coach in Vienna/Austria, France and Tenerife. I do love writing - blog posts, stories, poems, books - and to publish my writing. As a writer's coach I support people to live to their potential and to get the thoughts inside their head out to the world as blogs, ebooks, books and to earn money in doing so. I do love to go into and be in deep relaxed altered state and to help others to do the same by teaching them self-hypnosis. I do love change, the only constant in the universe – as evolution and even more as revolution – and I do rechoice with the fact that achieving it is so simple and easy. I love to give away gifts to myself and others – my favourite gift is a smile, or even better a whole-hearted laugh. I deeply enjoy and appreciate our wonderful world and all she is offering to us. It has always been my vision to live in our wonderful world, filled with happy people. That is what I have been working for and striving to since my youth in my business and personal life - and I keep doing so in my committed way. With the model of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), dialectics and self-hypnosis I have united my view of the world with practical application. Sustainable food, regularly excersising are equally important to me and I love to spend time in deeply relaxed states each and every day and so I do enjoy achieving my goals in a playful and simple way. I invite you on a journey towards relaxation, serenity, lots of choices, humor, joy, happiness, love, to your emotional success. be wonderful! Tom
