Why You WANT To Repel Prospects
When you stand in who you are without apology, when you are fully and fearlessly authentic, you will REPEL people. You will scare them off! This is wonderful. The more you clear out the people who don’t like or understand or appreciate you and your products, the EASIER it is for your fans to find you. If you aren’t repelling anyone, you’re not doing your job!
You’ll never please people who are not “your people,” but you can divert your energy and your self respect by trying to make everybody your friend or customer. Cut them loose. Instead of trying to persuade people who don’t want to be persuaded, embrace scaring them off.
They aren’t your customers and they aren’t your friends. Self respect is very attractive to good health, wealth, and love.
Your naysayers may come around on their own. Focus on your fans.
I’ve noticed the more “professional” I try to sound, the more invisible I become. I sound like everybody else. I disappear. My conversation partner’s eyes glaze over then dash around for something of more interest.
As soon as I let loose and say something outrageous like “I’m the Money Magic Queen,” people wake up. “Really?” they ask. “What’s that?” I end up with more relationship and credibility than if I’d just stuck to the usual credentials (author, trainer, international speaker, certified coach).
The more authentic you are, the more visible you’ll be to your people, just like the full moon coming out from the shadow of the eclipse.
Yes, it’s scary. Many people will tell you that you can’t afford to lose the snakes! It takes a leap of faith to trust in the attractiveness of who you are when you’re not pleasing others.

You’re right, it’s so powerful when you finally begin to own who you are and to let it loose out there in the world instead of trying to vanilla-down all the time in order to satisfy the masses. For so many years, I had a “professional” web site with very little of my spirit reflected in it … once I redesigned it to be more “me” things began falling into place. It’s very empowering and feels good when you’re working with “your peeps” instead of “whoever.” Things click.
Excellent insights all over the place in this blog, Morgana!
You are on the point. Its like Ruth and Naiomo gleening the wheat the chaff is blowen away and he good stuff remains.
You are truly someone who walks their talk! I love how you are always true to yourself–you are just such a breath of fresh air! Your authenticness (if this is a word) makes you very attractive to those of us who are one of “your peeps”.
Amen, sisterfriend!
Always good to be reminded of that it is much better, more fun, and easier to be the real me than trying to be someone else. On top of that getting to work with people that want to work with me not someone else is even better. Thanks Morgana
You took me a step further. I know that when I started saying “no” to projects that didn’t excite me and I listened to my gut when I thought a client would be “high maintenance,” my business got much stronger–much higher caliber of clients and projects. And many more of my clients made it from aspiring author to published author with a contract from a publishing house.
But now I see that I can also repel people with how I talk about myself and what I help people achieve–how intriguing! I will think about how to do this!
It’s perfect to find web-sites along with info and thx for the discuss that you have done. Usually, I’m pretty stunned, but etc…
