Saturday
It is Saturday and the sun is shining and the birds are chirping. BUT they can no longer get into my insulation! YAY! Sounds funny right? Well we have added on to our home and in the new section they were taking my insulation and building nests and just being a nuisance. So glad that part has been fixed. Next section to guard off is the carport. They poop EVERYWHERE! UGH!
So yesterday I received a text message from a new customer. I was so excited. She was referred to me by a new customer I have had for a few months. I love that when I create that trust with these customers, they forward my name and number to others.
I remember when I first started my business. Let's just be real, I had NO intentions of running it like a business. I wanted the products at a discount. I didn't want the prizes and rewards I just wanted the product. HA!!!! Unconsciously I started to enjoy the rewards and recognition I was receiving. I started making sure I was winning those prizes and my name was announced. It was a friendly competition to beat my best and out perform others. Then I decided I wanted to quit teaching and run this business full time. With the other businesses too, but mostly this for me. WELL, what I learned is I still get to teach just teach a different subject/subjects. Now I am helping women feel better, look better and improve their quality of life they desire. It took time, patience and persistence to get through this without too many scars.
Personal growth is a BIG part of what we get in this business. It is not just about the money and recognition, but the growth we experience as women for ourselves, our children, our families. I have always looked at things from a very up front, not sugar coated direct way. I always looked angry and was always stern in my responses. I still am depending on the situation, but I have learned to soften up a bit. I have learned to be a better me for my kids to emulate.
It is better to be a positive person than a negative one. It is better to see life for all the good not the bad. It is better to look at people as good not bad. Changing our thoughts and our mind is what makes us better people. We can not change others but we can change ourselves. Some people give up too soon but if they would just stay the course, they would see their dreams come true.
What are your dreams? What are your goals? What do you want for your life? Your families lives? Take the time to reflect and evaluate and see what it is you desire.
