I flew to and from Atlanta this past weekend to deliever a new workshop, The Incredible Factor. I had a blast and the small but mighty group of women got just what they needed in those 4 hours to produce a mindset shift that would allow them to turn their passion into profit. Each of the ladies has reported a significant shift giving themselves permission to Own their Incredible Factor.
On the way to and from Atlanta, we were delayed because of the weather. Essentially, we were in a holding pattern. We were unable to modify the current events, we were foced to wait. While people around me were frantic for one reason or another, I sat peacefully...what quickly entered into my heart was that "delay is not denial." Afterall, I was coming back to my home in Delaware...just a little later than I had expected but I was okay with that....I believe that we should focus on what we can control, not what we can't. I remember one particular gentlemen. He was livid. Mad about the extra 45 minutes of "down" time, he scoured at the airline attendants at the gate. Sometimes, for reasons we cannot comprehend, we get delayed. Instead of embracing the delay because it is working in our favor, we become belligerent and produce a negative emotion that attracts more of the same in life and business. That, Incredible One, is what they call a holding pattern.
What I've realized in working with a few of my business coaching clients and traveling for speaking engagements recently is that many people have somehow gotten their Incredible Factor stuck in a holding pattern. Bottom line, they are stuck. They've been doing what they've been doing and settling for the results they've been receiving. They've not gotten clear on their value and their ideal client and as a result they are stuck, fearful, unsure, confused...holding for a change to come but completely unaware of how to usher in that change.
The universe can not restore your Incredible Factor and turn your passion into a profit until you get clear by releasing yourself from fear, guilt, confusion, inauthentic activity and lack of integrity.
What are you holding on to that is preventing you from getting what you want? Is it control because you fear that a cleaning lady can't clean your toilets as well as you? If you want to play big, learn how to pay someone else $5 to $100 so that you can do what must be done to Unleash Your Incredible Factor. I believe that we should focus our attention on IPA's - Income Producing Activity and the last time I checked having to sort the mail, clean the toilet, even organize your desk wasn't paying big.
When your Incredible Factor is in a holding pattern, it cannot produce the reward for those whom you serve. Take a delay that is not self-imposed as a blessing, sit peacefully and clarify your purpose and intent of what to do when the delay is over. And more importantly REST. Most of you work too much anyway, so a few minutes with no plans might actually lead to a mindset shift that can make the time you are working more productive...how would more productivity enhance your Incredible Factor?
If the delay is self-imposed, seek help immendiately. Find out what is causing the holding pattern. Regardless of its intent, a coach will be able to refocus your energy to lift the delay and get you back on your way to fulfilling your purpose and serving others with your gift.
Be Incredible,

Don't Stradle the Fence - Darnyelle A. Jervey, Speaker, Coach, Author
A few years back I use to hear this song on the gospel station called, "You Can't Stradle the Fence," and as I was preparing today's blog, that song came rushing back to me.....
For all intents and purposes, I'm, of course, referring to your Incredible Factor. And your Incredible Factor cannot stradle the fence - either your gift adds value or it takes away from the value in others (I guess you could argue if it does the latter then it's not a gift!) It cannot do both and you shouldn't want it to.
As you are out and about "doing you" take the time to ensure that every interaction adds value...your Incredible Factor (brand, gift) doesn't get a day off. ...Be authentic, people can see through your fakeness a mile away. Be genuine, smile, laugh, have fun, play up your passion and engage fully in every interaction as if the person with whom you speak has a sign that says "Make me feel Incredible," Apply your gift consistently and watch your followers and interactions grow because who you are is consistent and others are getting to know, like and trust who you are and the gift you offer to the world.
So to prevent your Incredible Factor from Stradling the Fence,
1. Get clear about the gift you offer to world
2. Review your daily activities and assess what activities are inconsistent to your gift
3. Make a non-negotiable decision to make adjustments where appropriate
4. Enroll the help of a coach to help define and unleash your Incredible Factor
Still stradling the fence, no worries. I have a solution coming for you real soon that will help you leverage your Incredible Factor and go from passion to profit when you get clear and systematize what it will take to share your gift with the world. In the mean time, get your F.R.E.E. copy of my CD "how to Use Your Increddible Factor to Quantum Leap in Life & Business" on this page or my company website: http://www.incredibleoneenterprises.com

Is Your Incredible Factor Authentic? - Darnyelle A. Jervey - Coach, Speaker, Author
One thing I can't stand is fake people. We all know them, they are all over the place. They as I say are people who sing in the choir....everything is "me,me,me,me,me" Can't you see right through those people?
Oh, I hope that you are not one of them....sorry but it's time that you stop singing that solo and start to invite others to be a part of your experience by positioning your Incredible Factor authentically.
Your brand, your product or service, your gift is a reflection of the best or worst of you....and if you don't spend time Inspecting the Incredible...you may miss the mark on ensuring that your marketing and branding efforts attract more clients and lead to the quantum leap you wish to experience in your business.
As a coach, I have a recommendation that can help you. Get to a quiet place without the distractions of your world - no tv, radio, blackberry, Ipod, etc. Just you, your heart and a notepad. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself and clear your mind and pallet of all that was happening in and around you.
Repeat after me: I am offering an authentic gift to the marketplace which is loved, purchased and enjoyed frequently.
Then the work begins: ask yourself a few poignant questions and answer them from your heart space, fully centered on your Incredible Factor - the gift you offer the world.
1. What three words do you want your gift to invite the world to experience?
2. What three words would others (previous clients, etc) use to describe how your gift makes them feel?
3. Are those three words consistent with what your Incredible Factor means to the world?
4. How can you make modifications that tap into the core of you and reflect your gift in its purest, most authentic form for others?
Struggling to answer these questions and relate them back to your gift? No worries, I will be introducing a solution to you real soon. In the meantime, get a F.R.E.E. copy of my CD - how to Use Your Incredible Factor to Quantum Leap in Life and Business. It's changing lives, you should be next.

Who Needs You? - Darnyelle A. Jervey - Coach, Speaker, Author
It's been a busy few weeks - I've doing a lot of training, coaching and consulting with entrepreneurs on marketing and mindset and there's a common thread that has run through each interaction, workshop, talk or coaching session: When you don't know who needs you, your gift, your product or service, it's like fishing for a needle in a haystack. You're like a ship without a sail going back and forth with no direction. You are trying to be all things to all people.
STOP.
Many entrepreneurs really get nervous when you start talking about developing a niche market because they think that you are trying to stunt their growth before they even get started....
Quite the contrary, as they say - when you niche, you get paid for your gift!
Your gift is NOT for everyone - I don't care what you think, trust me it's not. There's a distinct group of people (men, women, youth, etc) who will benefit from YOUR Incredible Factor. They are desparate for it. If they don't get what you've got RIGHT NOW, life as they know it, is over!
So how do you find these people?
This week: spend some time in a quiet place seeking clarity:
1. Get clear on what your Incredible Factor{IF} (your gift, your product, your service)is AND who it is for AND how you want to use it to serve others.
3. Get clear on the pain, struggle, issue your IF eases and/or eliminates for your perfect client/customer.
4. Get clear on what your perfect client/customer wants and needs and how your IF is the perfect answer to their want/need.
No, I didn't miss number - 2. Write all of your answers down.
That's enough for this week.
PS - Need help finding your niche - no worries I've got a new program coming real soon. It will cover mindset, mission, marketing and movement to take you from passion to profit! Stay tuned....

Oprah, Naomi and the Incredible Factor - Darnyelle A. Jervey - Speaker, Coach, Author
Recently, I was watching Oprah and she had SuperModel Naomi Campbell on the show. Naomi talked of many things that have transpired in her life but what stood out the most to me was:
1. She had a desire to find an inner peace and beauty that matched her outer beauty. (Her Incredible Factor)
How many of us could say that this is also what plagues you? There was definitely a time in my life when I could - about 8 years ago to be exact. To the outside world, much like that of Naomi's , I had it going on but inside, where it counts, it was dark, desolate and scary. I was afraid of truly becoming that which I really desired to be.
So what changed?
I got to know the lover of my soul and in that process many things about myself were revealed. The most important of them, that I am Incredible and that there is something about me that makes others want to be, do and have more just because they heard me share from my heart - my Incredible Factor. That I am real, authentic and that I care about empowering others, that I am more than enough and that I was given everything I need to success in my life at birth...I did the work to know me, love me, appreciate me and become the me I was created to be. Ms. Incredible One.
You are greatness. You are powerful. You are beautiful. You are a gift to the world. You are More than Enough.
As I watched Naomi, what I really think she was saying is "I want to know my purpose." I found myself wanting to encourage her, to let her know that she is already who she desires to be. She must give herself permission to be herself. I wanted to tell her how beautiful her soul is and how she is not her past and that because she has made a non-negotiable decision to stop giving her past permission to speak, it will stop. I was so proud of her transparency and honesty that she wants more in her life - a deeper meaning, a purpose alignment, the Incredible Factor.
So what does all of this have to do with all of you?
Many women feel what Naomi discussed on the show - the time is now to live your dreams and identify your purpose but many have no idea how to make it happen. Many are in jobs they hate and want desperately to get it but they are allowing the economy to be their reason to stay. Many have a hidden passion, one that will enhance the lives of others but they are too afraid of what might happen if they REALLY do what they have been secretly praying for. Many lack the knowledge of how to achieve the next level in their life, career, business and need direction to make it happen.
I'd like to help. Your purpose is your reason why. I can name counteless successful people and less often than you might think do they say, "I want to make a boatload of cash." What they say instead is "I have a dream, I know my purpose and I want to add value to the lives of others using my business to fund and expand it."
When I am doing a coaching consult often the "thing" the potential client says is missing from their life is money. Let me be clear - it's not the money, its what the money can do to help you live your dream and purpose....Big Difference.
I'm so grateful to start each new day elated that my purpose, my gift, is bigger than me and all I have to do is surrender in obedience to the laws of the universe. Incredible....
I've got a treat for you. If you go right now to http://www.incredibleoneenterprises.com you can get a F.R.E.E. CD download of How to Use YOUR Incredible Factor to Quantum Leap in Life and Business - it's high-value and high-content - filled with tips you can implement right now to began the journey of exploding your life!!!!
