#552 The Art of Asking: How to get what you want..





If you don’t ask, the answer is already no… so what does it take to ask for what you want—and then get it? There seems to be a magical art behind creating a great ask, and we all know stories of people who seem to get exactly what they want whenever they ask. I used to see this as people just being lucky or having the gift of the gab like Sales people. I saw them as magicians who could bend and will the world to their ways. Why is this? What are they doing that no one else seems to be doing? How do they ask for what they want and seem to get it every time?


Culturally, it’s not always the norm to ask directly for what you want—or we do a terrible job of it (and women face significantly more challenges in both cultural norms and consequences for making direct asks. Instead of specifying what we want, we hem and haw about ideas, often walking away from great conversations without clearly articulating our message, what we hope to achieve, and how the other person can directly help us.


Creating a great ask (and learning the ability to say no) are two skills that successful people learn how to do really well. When you ask well, you can get what you want more quickly—saving you time and energy. In the past decade, some of the things I’ve asked for and negotiated for include: asking for a decent raise at work, asking to be included on a special site on Flickr, asking to be a blogger for a store, if not the first time I wait and send the request again when it reopens. Of course, the art of asking is you have to actually ask.


Here are four thoughts on the asking process: -


1. You have to actually ask… Believe me the fear of asking for me is worse than the actual asking. The idea is that firstly you need to know what you want. This is an all-too-obvious step that’s often overlooked. Often it’s not always clear to you (or others) what it is, exactly, that you’re in need of. The more clarity you can have about what you want, the better. Take the time to learn, figure out, or discover exactly what you want.


2. Ground yourself in why you’re doing what you’re doing. I check in with myself, asking with my heart and mind and body, making sure this is what I want and that it resonates with who I am and what I stand for – my values. For e.g.: - Is this something that I want to do, and want to do deeply? Is this something I stand for and believe in?


3. Be direct, clear, and specific about what you want. Make it ridiculously clear what you’re asking for. Be direct about what you want, who it’s from, and when you need it, and what a desired outcome looks like. For e.g.: Define the problem, what is it exactly you want, Be direct and confident.


4. Be selective and targeted about who you ask. The more specific you can be about WHO you ask the better. Book the time, prepare yourself and be ready for how you are going to prove to them this is what you want. The idea is to start with small wins. Ask incrementally for specific, small things. Get a foot in the door. Don’t ask for the big thing until you’ve established rapport, responsibility and demonstrated follow-through with someone.

#492 Alles says Where are my Horns!!















































As a bit of good fun but also as a great cause, my good friend Alles Klaar who is also an Australian who lives not far from myself, coerced me to have this photo shoot with her in SL and of course I jumped at the chance. Alles is a well known photographer in SL, with a vibrant sense of humour and creativity that I adore. For once I was able to take some snap shots myself for this amazing cause for the 'Lexi Project'.

The top photo is myself  - Mischa, wearing the beautiful new outfit from Sweet E's - Light Blue Lace Dress for the Apply Me Event on now, and the gorgeous new hair from Tableau Vivant from Fameshed called 'Elvi'.  Adorned with the gorgeous headpiece from Zenith called Gypsy Tiara from We < Role Play, the Big Wide Wings in Gold from ClaVv, created by the awesome designer Pierot available @ the Lexi Project,  with the delicate new necklace from Salt and Pepper called Gadhra, the gorgeous new shoes from Chica Chica called Carmen Latte available at The Cosmopolitan Event with the perfect pose from Del May called "Yes?".

#439 Wild Open Spaces with GizzA Creations, Tableau Vivant and MG



We live in a world where all space is shared. The air we breathe, the ground we walk — it’s not just ours. 

Even the most desolate of places have some sort of permanent resident, it might just be that we can’t see them. They exist, silent and alert. They feel our footsteps shake the earth, and hear our voices float through the dense quiet. To join them is a privilege. If we step kindly, they’ll let us in on all of their secrets.

The forests, the oceans, the rivers, the mountains, the wildlife, the birds… these are the area codes of mother nature, and where the adventurer inside of us comes out to play.  You need a few things, of course: An open mind, wild open spaces, the willingness to explore, and a couple of good friends by your side. A map will only lead you to the known, and we’re here to discover the unknown. 

When the road ends, this is where our feet will pick us up.  It a matter of finding the path and heading to a direction unknown. Do you like to travel where the wild things roam?

#413 Self Check with Eyelure, Del May and Truth


For all the ladies and to all men that may be reading this, my work decided to hold a charity event raising money for cancer. We actually called the event - 'Be Aware'. It was to raise awareness amongst the many and various branches of which I look after across Australia and overseas. Even for those countries that the subject may be taboo in some circumstances, we wanted people to become Aware.

If I asked you all do you know of anyone close to you that has passsed away from cancer or has cancer now, I would say the percentage of you all would be approx 90% would know someone that has Cancer. I know this is a scary topic and morbid in some cases, but the more people that become aware of their own changes in their body the better you all will be. The signals are there. We see changes everyday. You need to be aware to look out for them.

Believe me I am the first to put my hand up and state I hate going to the doctors, but realise it is a part of life and self checks and regular checkups from the doctors are vital to living a long life.
Some statistics for you: - The top five cancers are: - Lung, Prostrate, Colon, Pancreas, Liver. For women Breast and Ovarian are also high. So don't delay, if you find the smallest issue, yes it is a pain in the backside to line up and wait at the doctors, but it is worth the time, 2-3 hours out of your life every couple of months, is better than facing the chemo and radiation ward anyday.!!

#395 When time never waits for us, then why do we wait? with GizzA Creations

 Have you ever constantly picked up your phone checking messages, did i miss it? Did he call?
Why the hell do we torture ourselves and wait. Why do we wait?.  Normally it is easy enough to tell if a guy likes you because they ask you out, want your number or try to attract your attention.   If you suspect that you are one of those people, that are looking at your phone, for that text, messenger or update. Forget it, if he dosen't say hello then he is not interested or unsure.

Yes it can be frustrating to determine whether he is into you or not. Here I give you some simple signs to look out for which will let you know for sure whether he is interested or time to stop waiting!!.

Time: The first thing people invest in a new relationship is time – new lovers will spend hours composing perfect emails or talking on the phone; your mobile phone becomes your best friend as you wait in eager anticipation for the next text, email or call so you can respond straight away. If a guy continually seems too busy to make time for you in his day then it is a sure sign that he isn’t really interested in pursuing a relationship with you.
Playing the field:  The sure sign that a guy isn’t interested in you is that even after you have been dating for a while they are still dating other people and encouraging you to do the same. If this is the case take his lead and go and find someone who is interested in developing a relationship exclusively with you. He is not worth it. He just wants the good ole "Friends.. or Friends with Benefits". Women are emotional beings and am sorry to say, Unless you can control your heart, friends with benefits whilst is awesome can tear you apart in the end when you see him with someone else.
Feeling Invisible: - In a healthy relationship there will be mutual interest – you will want to talk about yourself and share your life but you will also want to know about the other person and their life. Listening is as important as speaking and it is through this two way communication that we develop intimacy. When you are on a date you should feel as though you are the object of their attention,  if you are on a date with someone who isn’t that into you this won’t be the case – you may feel invisible. They will talk about themselves, go to places that interest them and seem oblivious to your needs, wants or feelings. You deserve better than that. So stop waiting, enjoy your life, explore, travel and don't forget time is short and waiting by that phone is not the answer.
