hated it, but did it anyway....

That piercing sound of the alarm...5am....hit the snooze at least 2 times..but then finally i am up and look down at the floor, my workout clothes are out...i know, i have to do it though, because if I have to try any harder than that, the workout won't happen...then i have coffee and banana, i know, how boring...but then I get into my car to get to the gym by 6am. I know, boring right? But, the reason I go is because I have already paid for John the trainer to be there, waiting for me, waiting to tell me what to do..ready to kick my butt,...because I pay him too. And if I don't go to the gym, he charges me anyway...so, that is why I go...And then i am walking to my car 30 min later...and I always try to remember how it feels...it feels SO GOOD to have that done and over with..and feel so good because of it.

Hate it, but love it...

i am just like everyone else....

I would love to click away my morning on jcrew.com, coach.com and many other of my favorite websites. I click on a link and before i know it i am off on a tangent of clicking and then i look at the clock and i am so mad at myself for wasting time. Facebook has been my biggest culprit! I could click away for hours! So, I really stay focused by time blocking my time to do specific things...and if I get them done, then I can allow myself a "Lunch" break and click a bit. It is a guilty pleasure.

My job allows me to do what ever I want!!

Most important thing to me are my kids. I have 3 daughters and they see me working but they also see me being a mom and making financial decsions about our lives. I encourage them to come along with me to shows, meetings and they have all attended our National Conference in Kansascity. They got to see first hand our company and how I am apart of it. To me, working from home and raising my girls couldn't be any better!!

Beth Jones Schall was a success!

I am so happy that our mini conference was a success!! Direct Sales Expert Beth Jones Schall was a success! She flew into Columbus and did our Leader Workshop on Friday April 29th, and May 1st. I am so glad about all the positive feedback. We will have Beth on a series of conference calls this fall and back again in Jan 2011 for another workshop! More info coming your way!!
