Are You Looking For Something To Be Thankful For?


Every Thursday I make a conscious effort to state a few things I am thankful for. It started from some posts on another blogging platform and I continue the tradition on Facebook and in my life in the real world too. It is easy to be rushing through the day to day tasks and get so bogged down in the routine and any difficulties we may be facing that we forget all the wonderful gifts we are presented with every day.

Every day that we are alive is a gift. Yes even the rough ones will teach us something useful and if you look hard you will find things to be thankful for even on the most tragic of days. Sometimes, I will admit, the gifts are only apparent in retrospect but they are always there if you take the time to look.

So today it is raining and I am thankful for the rain which is filling up reservoirs and raising the water tables so our wells won't go dry. I am thankful for the roof over my head. I am even thankful that I am forced to go out in the rain today or I actually might pull the covers over my head, I love to sleep with the rain hitting the roof. But I have work to do today and on with my mission I will go.

It is a last day of the month. I have a few more orders to take to put me over the top on my goal to go on target for my Mary Kay Career Car. I am so thankful to be so close to this goal. I am thankful that I found a great company that rewards my efforts and praises me to success. I have never been in a business environment like this before and I am thankful for the training I received during my years of volunteer as a parenting and breastfeeding councilor with La Leche League. Those skills are a good match for the philosophy of Mary Kay. The Golden Rule and helping others to succeed are the mainstays of the Mary Kay culture.

Well I am off to find more things to be thankful for. New friends, old friends, family, and more. I am thankful for it all!
If the Mary Kay philosophy seems like it might match yours don't hesitate to check out my website for more information or to give me a call. I am always looking for women to join my Mary Kay team who are looking to earn extra or start a new career in a positive environment.

Take a Chance Today or Stay Stuck in a Rut


We each determine our own future. Opportunities to succeed are placed in front of us every day and we can choose to embrace them or we can let them pass by without taking the chance. It is easy to stick to the routine. Avoiding risk is safe but it is sort of like refusing to step outside your front door for fear that something bad will happen. You may stay safe inside your home but then again something could happen there to hurt you too and you would have missed out on so much life by staying inside.

Just for today.... take a moment to meditate on your future. Where do you see yourself in a week, in a month, in a year.... You can remain static and most likely safe or you can grab hold of the opportunities in front of you and grow. Each new experience helps to bring us to a higher state of existence. Sure sometimes you fail but even in failure there is knowledge and then you can go on to the next opportunity armed with more information.

I hope your future is rosy and you find a way to take those risks. Break away from the comfortable routine and try it. It is the only way to grow!

I Just Want To Shout It From The Rooftops!


I am so excited about Mary Kay! What an awesome product line and an unbelievable opportunity for women to improve not only their appearance and self confidence but their whole lives. I love, love, love what it has done for my skin and the opportunity to share that with others alone is a gift.

Do me a favor. Reach up right now and touch your cheek. How does the skin feel? Is it rough and dry? Is it oily and bumpy? You know what? My skin feel soft and supple. It is moist without being oily and is so much younger looking than my age. And believe me I am getting to the age when I really enjoy looking younger :)!

I know many people feel that they are stuck with the skin they are in but I am here to tell you that there is an affordable answer to whatever issues you are dealing with. The Mary Kay product line has many options for skin care including our popular TimeWise products with age fighting properties, our classic skin care line, and many specialty items for specific needs. If you have never tried Mary Kay skin care or if it has been a while since you have had a Mary Kay facial give me a call. Mary Kay is always testing (never on animals,by the way and improving the products they offer so they are up to date with current trends.

I am currently offering FREE facials to anyone who has skin and I am also interviewing women who might be interested in starting their own business. Call or text me today!

Watch Me And Be Amazed


I admit it...I am guilty of letting opportunity slip by. Well I am back from a wonderful retreat with new enthusiasm and some great new tools to help me in my business and I will no longer allow myself to be distracted from my goals.

We often waste the very time that we could be using to solve a problem by worrying about how we will solve it. We allow ourselves to make excuses for why things are not happening and as someone stated this weekend "an excuse is a lie that only we believe." Well no more wasted time on worry and no more excuses. I am ready to move.

Today I will do what I need to do for my business. I will avoid the things that distract me from my goals. I am on a mission. Watch me and be amazed!

Would you like to help? Well give me a call or send a text and be one of my 10 who will listen. I need to try out this new presentation on 10 women by Wednesday and I need feedback on it to report back to my director.

It's Not Always A Great Day But....


I admit it. I don't always wake up with enthusiasm for the day. Each morning I post a status on Facebook and I try to make it positive, most days it is easy. I am happy and it flows through my fingers to the keyboard. But there are days when I have faced a disappointment the day before or had a bad night's sleep that I struggle. Today was one of those days. I must have started my status 10 times or more always ending up in a less than desirable spot that required DELETE. As I struggled and deleted the discomfort faded and eventually I was able to look forward.

I finally managed to get something more pleasant out there and it paid off because I found out that my lovely hostess from a Mary Kay party last weekend has some orders for me! So now my mood is much more positive and I am excited to face the rest of the day. I put out positive instead of the uncomfortable negative I felt and was rewarded.

I am by nature a "cup is half full" type of gal but when I am not feeling it, I dig deep down inside and add some more to the cup. If you are feeling like life is a constant struggle and you just can't get ahead try finding one little ounce of joy and put it out there. You will be pleasantly surprised at the results.

Today I am heading to a wonderful Mary Kay event in Albany. I am excited to meet a National Sales Director and see many other Mary Kay Consultants and Directors gathered to learn and grow. Talk about the opportunity to refill my cup!

I am currently interviewing women to help them decide if Mary Kay could provide a positive experience for them. What would you do with an extra $50 or $100 a week? How would you feel when you help someone to feel better about themselves? Perhaps you are looking to change careers? I would love to have you join my team.. We can build a positive future together. Near or far, your location does not matter, only your willingness to work for a better tomorrow.

The Ticket To Your Stress Free Holiday


Ok so maybe I am dreaming but wouldn't it be nice to stay out of the malls and the holiday shopping madness this year? My countdown calendars are slowly ticking off the days until the December holidays are here. For my Jewish friends Hanukkah starts in 85 days and Christmas is 92 days away for me. This year I plan to be one of those lucky people who are done with shopping by Thanksgiving so I can focus on others during the holidays rather than the long lines at the stores.

If you have a dream like mine I can help. Let's get together for a relaxing cup of coffee, tea, or cocoa if you are close or on the phone or skype if you are far away and go over all the people who you would like to honor with a gift. I will try to help you remember everyone and will be able to offer suggestions from the Mary Kay product line to fill many of the individual needs. Mary Kay has beautiful gift ideas that start at $10 so affordability is there.

I offer FREE gift wrapping and can also put together basket collections at a nominal fee. I also put in a $10 gift card for Mary Kay products in every gift I wrap! That's two gifts for the price of one all wrapped and ready to go. Think about all the time and energy saved to focus on the real meaning of the season.

So please call or text me if you would like to be dreaming too. I do offer this service to business owners for employee and customer appreciation gifts as well so please don't hesitate to ask or refer me. I do take care of those who refer me to fruitful contacts so refer away and earn free Mary Kay for yourself.

I Got Got Got Got No Time!

I don't have time to take care of myself.
I hear this time and time again when I am talking with women. There's the kids, the dog, the husband or boyfriend, the boss, the parents, the club, the list goes on and on but I am here to tell you that you need to take care of you too!

If you don't steal a few minutes for yourself every day you are going to run out of energy and then where will all those people who depend on you be? What if I told you that it would only take 10 minutes a day with Mary Kay to start you on the road to feeling better about you and improving your life? Surely you have a few minutes you can squeeze out for that.

Yes five short minutes in the morning and five at night is all you need to have to take care of your skin. This pampering treatment will make yourself feel special every day. Even after your first Mary Kay facial you will feel a difference in your skin and as time goes on it will only get better and better. Honestly the Mary Kay Miracle Set along with a protective Mineral Foundation application is all you need. If you are not into "makeup" you can stop right there.

I know taking care of yourself will make you feel better and when you feel better you will be able to help all those other people in your life more effectively. Give Mary Kay a try soon and you will see.

I offer a complimentary Mary Kay facial to each and every one of you. If you are local I can meet with you and if not I will send you the supplies and talk you through it on the phone or Skype. Call or Text me today to set up your Free pampering session. I know you can find the time.
