As I prepared the crowd
pleasing chocolate cookie I make for the
holidays this blog post came to me ..
That’s right this fun loving, “HOT” Grandma from NJ
Makes Cookies and writes Blog Post’s..
Can you see me now?
I have my apron on, my glasses of course
Can’t see a damn thing with-out them!
Checking my recipe to make sure I follow
Each step correctly.
I told you this is an EZ recipe and I’m gonna share.
Hold on just one more minute I promise..
Call me wacky if you like, but I have been sitting
At the feet of two legends in this industry and I’ve
Been soaking it all up. Learning TRUTH!
And so my mind has shifted from thinking aimlessly
To thinking matter of fact like..I’m a business
Woman and I think like one.. Sue Me…
Here is the recipe I promised
For those of you who don’t want to hang around
Ready?
JoAnn Donahue’s & Paula Deans Chocolate
Gooey Butter Cookies… Yeah I would like
to take all the credit but I can’t..
1 8 oz. brick cream cheese, room temp.
1 stick butter, room temp
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 18 oz box moist chocolate cake mix
* confectioner’s sugar, for dusting
Directions
Preheat oven 350 degrees F.
In large. bowl w/ electric mixer,
Cream the cream cheese & butter until smooth.
Beat in egg. Then beat in vanilla.
Beat in cake mix. Cover and refrigerate
For 2 hours to firm up so you can roll into balls.
Tablespoon size balls works best, Then roll in
Sugar. Place on un-greased cookie sheet 2 inches
Apart. ( I like to use Parchment Paper) hint hint
Bake 12 minutes. The cookies will remain
“Gooey”. Cool completely sprinkle with more sugar
If desired.
ENJOY…. Happy, Holy Holiday’s People
Lesson up.. I got a doozy for ya!
What happens when you follow any recipe exactly?
What happens when you forget an ingredient?
What happens once you master the recipe
And are SURE if you added this and took away that
your outcome would be perfect with an added touch?
OKAY ….Lets take one at a time..
If you follow a recipe exactly you will end
Up with something of perfection and a new
Creation for YOU
If YOU forget an ingredient chances are your
End result will be all wrong. Can’t skip an ingredient
And what if you took away the chocolate and
Replaced it with another flavor?
Right, Your result will be one of perfection
And the creation will be ALL YOUR OWN!
Oh, what a feeling!!
It’s the same for your business.
If you get your hands on a working
Business model and you follow it to the exact measure
Your end result will be a “Working Business Model”
If you forget a step. Do I have to explain?
And once mastered…..
YOU start to add to it……..
Now we are talking!
Let me give some examples
Of working business models
Verizon, Walmart, BJ’S, Sam’s Club
Madonna, Kid Rock, and many more..
What’s so very cool is I
Learned that they ALL follow the
Same model..
Bruce Sprinsteen & Rachel Ray follow it too.
Diane Hochman, Kim Shahan, Joe Schroeder, Mike Dillard
And me.. Yep we follow it as well
just to name a few.
A recipe for success is to find a master
(Having the proper tools is key)
In the field you are desiring and then
Study them and study WITH them
Listen to them, watch how they move,
How they talk, And MOST of all
How THEY THINK! Ask them to teach you
YOU how to think.
It’s one thing to make $5k, $7k, $20K
A month.. It’s a whole different story
When YOU BEcome the kind of person
Who makes that kind of money every month!
I’ll be honest it’s hard to find out here… A master
Who is transparent, who will be held accountable
Good Luck!
Everyone is self made ONLY millionaire’s
admit it.
What are you making Yourself to BE?
Peace,
JoAnn Donahue
