I’m always amazed at how so many people overlook the importance of nutrition when trying to slim down. I think it has been banged into our heads to eat little portions… the smaller the portions the faster you lose weight, right?

Raise you hand if you have ever made a decision and a commitment, then didn’t follow through with it. This can be with your business, family, exercise, anything.

Right now I’m focusing on meeting new people and re-connecting with old friends and acquaintances. One of the avenues I’m taking right now is networking with other entrepreneurs. It’s getting me out, it’s forcing me to learn my introductions (which sometimes suck!) and it’s getting my business out to the community.

Driving to get my son from his friend’s house, I came off the freeway. I was in my head going over what I should get done that evening. I came down the off ramp with only two or three other cars in front of me, Yay, I thought. The light was green, I slowed as I came to my turn. To the left of me I saw a grungy looking man leaning against the signpost

This hit me so powerfully that I wanted to share with everyone! I hope it impacts you as much as it did me, please enjoy and leave your comments below.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

A huge Piece to the business puzzle I was missing was setting my intentions for the week for success. I hadn’t seen the value in this. I’m a fly by the seat of my pants type girl! So this is how I was treating my business. I’d think of something that needed to be done, I’d do it, then move onto the next thing to do. The problem is I was “busy” but not bringing in any money. I could not figure out what pieces were missing so that I could start generating an income. I could see the big picture but not getting anywhere near it…

This is the Secret to Life! (In my opinion)

Failure is not an option

Defeat your enemies with success

What do these quotes mean to you? Take a long hard look at this video and really look for the underlying meaning of their message. It’s a lesson every CEO should look at. Another reminder of life from my son… wonder what he’s trying to tell me?

Lately, I’ve been slacking… or perhaps procrastinating, whichever the excuse is, my son gave me a solemn reminder.

Unaware of his actions, he was just
