You Look MAAHHVELOUS!

As I begin my journey to my hairstylist for an overhaul (color, cut, style, etc), I can not help but smile with anticipation. This is a treat that everyone should experience as having a professional make you look your best is priceless! When you leave the salon, you are smiling, your confidence level is soaring, you feel you can take on the world...and truth be told, you can! Now...if we could just translate this into the business world....hmmm. Well...the good news is you can! By practicing 3 daily habits, you can transform yourself everyday at home. How? 1. Read the likes of John Maxwell (my personal favorite) as he is both uplifting and real about leadership:how to develop into one, grow, and mentor and foster others. 2. Daily devotion time: Pray, give thanks, and turn over your cares and concerns to God. After all, he formed you for a purpose. It is said that we all have everything inside us for our mission in life. We just need development. As a person undergoing that develop...

Pay It Forward Friday

Now....I know what you may be thinking....ok...who does she want me to give money to now? Well....I want to tell you about my friend Joe. He owns an Automotive Shop in my city, and yes, he has helped our family many, many times...but that is not why I am writing about Joe. Joe started a practice of Pay It Forward Friday at his shop and he continues today. Joe now has two locations and is very active in both Chambers of Commerce and in many Veterans Groups as well. He began this practice because he is fully aware of the need to give back to the community. Where ever Joe is, whether he sees someone that he feels deserves a meal on him, or someone severely needing help, he is there. He recently went and cooked for the Firefighters in a nearby city just to show them that he cares, that WE all care. This goes WAY beyond paying for the person behind you in line at Starbucks, which is a great idea as well. But, you get the idea..... There are two verses that come to mind, Luke 12:48 state...

Find Your Tribe

You can not go anywhere these days without hearing something about your "tribe." Do you KNOW if you even HAVE a Tribe or if you do, WHO they are? FIND YOUR TRIBE "YOU KNOW, THE ONES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL THE MOST YOU. THE ONES THAT LIFT YOU UP AND HELP YOU REMEMBER WHO YOU REALLY ARE. THE ONES THAT REMIND YOU THAT A BLIP IN THE ROAD IS JUST THAT, A BLIP. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WHEN YOU WALK OUT OF A ROOM, THEY MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A BETTER PERSON THAN WHEN YOU WALKED IN. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT EVEN IF YOU DON'T SEE THEM FACE TO FACE AS OFTEN AS YOU'D LIKE, YOU SEE THEM HEART TO HEART. YOU KNOW, THAT KIND OF TRIBE? WHO'S YOUR TRIBE?" Jennifer Pastiloff Recently, the RSP (Really Smart People) will tell you that you are the sum total of the 5 people you spend the most time with aside from your workplace. I hope you are happy with them because they SHOULD be your tribe. I know I am happy with mine. I can not spend enough time with them. They REALLY ge...
