Interview Highlights

Addressing Concerns about Government Grants

• Prue addresses the common fear of increased governmental scrutiny associated with receiving grants.
• One has to decide if they want to be transparent or avoid attention.
• For conspiracy theorists, her advice is simple, if you're uncomfortable, don't apply.

"You can't have it both ways. You've either got something to hide and you don't want the government to know."

Aligning Business Goals with Grant’s Targets 

• The decision to align a business with a grant depends on individual business dynamics.
• Avoid chasing grants for the sake of it, remain true to your core business goals.

"Don't get too carried away with chasing the shiny object."

The Power of Storytelling

• Prue shares her own story of starting a youth hostel.
• She underscores the value of a strong narrative in the grant application process.

"There was a story that developed with that."

Approaching the Grant Writing Process for Beginners

• Grants are not handed out for nothing; understanding the requirements is critical.
• It's all about showing value to the grant issuer.

"You don't get given money for nothing. It's about understanding what's needed."

Tailoring the Same Grant for Different Organizations

• Prue’s advice is to consider how competitive the grant program is before submitting multiple applications.

"It would depend on how competitive that grant program is".

Every man contains within himself the capacity for endless development. Advancement into all things is the Law's great purpose. By learning to work with the Law in promoting that aim, man may build himself into greater and greater success.

All the processes of Nature are successful. Nature knows no failures. She never plans anything but success. She aims at results in every form and manner.

To succeed in the best and fullest sense of the term we must, with Nature as our model, copy her methods. In her principles and laws we shall discover all the secrets of success.

• 20 years in real estate culminating with the creation of Luxian International Realty,
• The use and integration of virtual selling, the blockchain, and cryptocurrency,
• The book that she authored 'Handle It: Get It Together and Finally Have It All' and the charity that it inspired,

You are more than the visible outcome of your work.

And the outcome of your work might be more than what is currently visible.

We have failure all wrong.

You create your opportunities by asking for them. - Shakti Gawain

In todays Friday Fire I discuss the power of asking. It truly is one of the most important keys to success. Asking for the things you want in life is one of the most important steps to achieving your desires. You still need hard work and the pursuit, though without asking, the answer is inevitably NO. If you want more YES in your life you have to ask for what you want.
