Motivation to Succeed, Image of book

One of the challenges you may encounter after you set a wonderful goal for yourself, is finding the motivation to succeed. When you are trying to get and stay motivated to succeed, ask yourself two questions; how strong is your determination to achieve that goalwhat is your reward? When your determination is strong, nothing can stop your motivation to succeed. For instance, when I wrote my very first book, "The next top success story". My plan was to have a mirror on the cover. I looked around for publishers and designers that would help me with my vision of having...

Woman thinking

With all that's going on in the world, the last thing we need is negativity from people right in our own environment; our parents, children, boss, coworkers and even some friends. In some cases, random strangers! Years ago, I was out shopping and on my way home, on the bus, a total stranger, sitting next to me, didn't even bother to say hello, just started talking to me and telling me about some old fashion remedy I should use to get rid of the bumps on my face. (I had terrible acne growing up) Once again, this was during my...

Creating visions boards or vision journals are a great way to manifest your dreams. If the idea of creating a vision board – either on your own or within the confines of a class – really isn’t your jam, then consider choosing a simple word to inspire you toward your goals. Many vision board enthusiasts start their boards or journals with their chosen word, but if you choose not to complete an entire board, a single word is a great way to start. Why Choose a Word? Words are powerful, especially if you spend some time reflecting on what you...

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic the world is currently facing, there are new laws in place that state a mask should be worn in public places.  Recently, one of my clients mentioned that she went on a job interview and was very discouraged afterwards. As we know, during job interviews you are required to put your best foot forward. My client felt that she didn't do her best because of having to wear a mask. She felt that the mask not only hid her beautiful smile, it stopped her from being able to show her interest in the job. My...

We are already into the second month of the new year. It’s been said that time waits for no one. so, it's time to get clear. If there’s one thing that keeps people stuck, it’s a lack of clarity. You know you want to quit your exhausting and draining day job in favor of the freedom of self-employment, but you aren’t clear on the steps to take. You want to take an exotic vacation, but you aren’t sure where to go—or how to make it happen. You want to grow your business, but aren’t even sure what that means. The...

ideas

I saw a couple of posts on social media about some people who created businesses based on their great ideas. One of the ideas was very familiar to me. A past client of mines told me that they had that same idea many years ago. However, the business was created and started by someone else. I totally believe my past client was capable of making this idea come to fruition. What she didn't realize was that by thinking and talking about her idea, she was creating a cause for an effect to show up whether it be by her or...

It’s inevitable…at some point in the pursuit of your passions, goals and dreams, you’re going to get tired, frustrated and completely overwhelmed. And in some cases, you will want to give up.

I had a conversation with my son recently. He said that it sounds weird when you ask someone how they are you doing and they say "I'm doing phenomenal!" I said what if they say, "I'm doing so so, or I'm doing okay, or I'm not doing so well today?" He said that sounded more normal than I'm doing phenomenal or spectacular! There is something wrong when speaking in a more subdued way is normal and speaking in a positive, upbeat way is considered weird. We went back and forth with this conversation. He said "its just sounds too perky!" I said "What's wrong with perky!? Why...

Don’t Let “Reasons” Hold You Back

During a conversation with a friend, she mentioned the same goals and dreams that she told me about 10 years ago. Actually, that type of conversation is not unusual for me. I seem to have become someone who is a magnet for pulling out the dreams and goals of others. This is a good thing! When I ask people a question like, "What would you love to do full-time?,” "What is your dream job?" or "What type of work would make you happy?,” most of the time the answer is not "I want to  work full-time doing something I don't enjoy,...
