The dirty truth about discipline

I got up this morning, went through the 2 hour process of getting my kids ready for school.  Once they were at school I came back home and decided I was going to read my bible, reflect on some things, and write some things down in my planner.  Well guess what?????  A wave of drowsiness washed over me.....................I had coffee in my hand and I still got so sleepy.  So sleepy that I absolutely had to allow myself to drift off into a slumber.  I had scheduled a workout at my favorite workout spot, Orange Theory.  But I was so sleepy that I was tempted to cancel.  Thanks to Orange Theory you can't cancel, the same day, via their app.  You have to call and even then you might lose your class that you paid for.  They normally have a waiting list for classes.  With that said I forced my butt up and into action to get to my class.  I'm so thankful to Orange Theory and the way they promote accountability, especially during this spe...

How to offer your service or product on Social Media

From the time I was very young I believed in what I called a "a free marketplace".  I believed that everyone had something unique to offer to the world.  I believed that there was space in the marketplace, for everyone, to offer their product or service.  Even more so now, than ever, I feel like there is a special place for anyone who wants to offer their God given gifts, in the marketplace.  With the advancement of Social Media, it does challenge us to be creative as opposed to competitive.  I also think it inspires us to care.  To offer ourselves because we care.  The only way to do that, on social media, is to do whatever it is that we love.  Talk about what you love doing.  Talk about what you love being involved in.  Whether you are talking about business or your kids, that love is an energy that comes through on social media.  Love is an energy. It is a force.  It is the most powerful force in the universe.  Any busi...

Who are you really???

When you first realize who you are...........  There were certain books that I would not read.  When I saw books on "How Successful women juggle it all".  Or just books on success,  I would say to myself "That book is not for me".  It's funny because the books were for successful people and in saying "This book is not for me", I was ultimately vocalizing that I didn't see myself as a "successful person".  Even though I felt I was a great stay-at-home mom and wife, " I didn't feel like these books were written for me or my life".  I now realize that I felt this way because of an internal belief about myself and, my path.  Well,  God has changed that.  I was drawn to this book recently called "What the most successful people do before breakfast".  For the first time ever, I heard within myself "Your a successful person, so you need to find out what other successful people do." I had never heard that withi...
