Don't Let Life's Emergencies Derail You... Determine, Deal, and Dream Again


So you are getting all excited about your dreams and goals and then it happens.... something derails you from your purpose. I am here to tell you that it does happen. No matter how committed you are to your goals, emergency situations do come up that force you to make a detour. The trick is to determine if the emergency is truly something you need to do something about and if it is you need to deal with it and get right back on track.

How many times have we go of a dream and not returned to it? I can count so many in my life and I am sure each of us can count them too. The year I took off of college... never to return. The times I made choices to become involved with the wrong people because they needed me not because they were the right kind of people to be spending time with, who changed the course of my life and sent me into a downward spiral. Oh so many detours that ended dreams.

I am grateful for the detours though as they have formed the person I am today. I am more determined than ever though to keep getting back on the track of persueing the dreams I have today for my tomorrows. That means sticking to the plan. That means not allowing life's little surprises to completely destroy my resolve. That means getting right back on the right track and moving forward.

I hope you are moving forward on the track to your dreams today. Remember identify the dreams, make a plan to help you get on track towards them, and keep that plan close so you can remind yourself of where you want to go.

If you are searching for something to help you gain self confidence, have fun, and earn money too, I have an opportunity for you. Why don't you jump on board my train, I mean Mary Kay Team.

Have a wonderful Wednesday.

If You Are Going To Fly You Need To Know How To Get To The Airport


After my post of yesterday on FOCUS, I did sit down and write out my dreams ...five personal and five business goals that I would like to see happen in my future. I then took that list and broke each dream down into plans to implement that will bring me closer to the goal. What good is saying you are going to fly and not figuring out how to get to airport?

What can you do today to help you reach those ultimate goals? For each of us it will be different but my plans include small steps forward and I even remind myself to celebrate each tiny victory along the way. If you are working toward something you need to keep your nose to the grindstone but you also need to have a little fun along the way. If you are too driven you will burn out long before the finish line.

So are you still with me? If you did not take the time yesterday to write your dreams do it now. I mixed in short term goals and long term dreams on my list. Some of you might find having vision of the distant future difficult so start with more concrete shorter term goals. If you find it impossible to imagine yourself with more money than you could possibly use then focus on paying off just one credit card. Picking goals that you can achieve sooner will help you to have a vision for a grander future. You can do this! Now get to it.

If your "route to the airport" involves making extra income or increasing your self confidence give me a call. I have a plan that is helping me and it might be right for you too. Part of my dreams involves helping others to fulfill there dreams so you won't be distracting me at all.

Have a terrific Tuesday!

The Word Of The Day - FOCUS


If you don't know where you are going how will you ever get there? It is important for each of us to take the time to produce a set of personal and professional dreams. Think about where you would like to see yourself in a month, a year, and beyond.

Sometimes you may find yourself just floating along, doing "busy work" day in and day out. It might be that you have been too overwhelmed with life for a while. You may have been dealing with a personal crisis that put you on auto pilot or you just got stuck looking down at the grind stone and forgot to DREAM.

Personally, I think the past week or so has found me in a little bit of a personal and business rut. Today I am going to spend some time renewing my focus so that I can move forward in all areas of my life. So who want's to join me?

I have been challenged by my Mary Kay Director to list 10 personal and business dreams today. I woke up with this assignment on my mind and feel it is probably the most important thing I need to do today. So I am off now to work on the list. Check back tomorrow to see how I did and to tell me if you committed to join my FOCUS group.

I'm Paddy Pizappi and refocusing on our dreams will make us happy!
