Quick tips for time management!

What do productive people do daily to reach the goals they have set before them? Identify no more than 3 important tasks for the day with time management!
Productive people know they will be overwhelmed if they plan too much for themselves. Especially when starting a business, don’t get overwhelmed with the size of your goals and dreams: take it one day at a time. I personally use this strategy in order to stay focused and prevent myself from distractions or from multitasking. If you do not have a full-time job or really want to take things to a #WholeNothaLevel make what I call a #SixList.
For the next day, I like to write these 3-6 things down before bed or when I stop working so that I can put work down and be present at home! This helps me stay organized, manage my time and prioritize. I truly believe when you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!
Mike Potillo​ recently shared with me on a team call to simply ask yourself daily, “What is essential that I do today?” Don’t get overwhelmed. Take it one step at a time, or one day at a time, but be intentional to do something! Keep chipping away at it. Before you know it, building your business will become like second nature more and more. In the beginning, this is so helpful as we are not used to juggling another thing. 9 years into my business building adventure, this strategy has kept me focused on where to spend my time, and yet still allows me the flexibility for the things that may come up that need to be addressed!
Whether you make your plan the night before, the Sunday before or the morning before, the bottom line is PLAN ahead. As Pam Sowder​ says, “Stay in your power.” If you don’t tell your time where to go, others or something else will. Don’t wait until you can go part-time or even full-time to get started. Take the first step. Give it as much as you can and have fun!

Faith and Belief

Oh man today I feel like I had a revelation. I was thinking about #belief and #faith in my business. I was thinking about the common thread of what holds people back from the success they are looking for. It’s faith and belief. 
Belief in your business is like Faith in Jesus Christ. The bible says in Matthew,  nothing will be impossible for you if you have Faith as big as a mustard seed. I just love that. I have believed since day 1 that this business would be the solution financially for my family and countless others! But here’s the kicker- I not only have faith, but I act on my faith.

 My faith and belief hasn’t always been this great, but the more I share this #CrazyWrapThing the more I #Blitz and #wrap etc, the greater my faith becomes- in me, my business, and my company. After every party, one on one, training, bootcamp etc I get more and more excited. But I have to take the action. Have you ever heard, God will do for you what you can’t do for yourself? 
I definitely pray for greater faith, opportunities to grow my faith and the strength to act on them as they present themself! Maybe faith is at the core of what’s missing for you to be a true Mega Success. I know it has been a catalyst for my success. If you are looking for more concrete ways to grow your faith and belief in a home based business or particularly It Works, then let’s connect. I’d love to connect and share more about what I have learned. It’s my desire to #Coach you through this process. Stay plugged in. 

Excuses and Success!

“You will always have more reasons to NOT work this business than to work this business.”
This was one of my favorite quotes! How true is this? I truly believe this is why not everyone will be successful on this journey, but its not because they cannot be, but because of the choices people make. You must take 100% responsibility for the choices you make, the places you go and the people you hang out with. It all has an impact. Its not your spouse’s fault, your kids’ or your team or lack there of. It comes down to YOU. When I see people thriving in this business or having troubles getting it off the ground consistently choose something else over their business I cringe. They are missing the boat in a big way. IT COMES DOWN TO PRIORITIES! What I find is those who prioritize their business over hobbies, down time etc… are the ones who truly succeed. I call this “investments” in your future! Your legacy and your family. Others call them risks, I see what the investment will do for them in the long run. Its like a parent who warns their kids from making the same mistakes they have made. I want to just shake people sometimes and say “Do you realize what you are doing?”  

Yes I mean financial success and time freedom, but Im not just talking about finances Im talking about confidence, the example they are setting for their family and friends and of course the lives being impacted along the process. I just wanted you to know this was a HUGE statement for me this past weekend and I just want to shout it form the roof tops. Thank you for your Commitment to the company and all of us. You are setting a great example ❤

The Right Priority, GUT CHECK…

Okay so being a “business” mommy, it’s always good to check where my priorities lie…although I want to follow my dreams of being an entrepreneur, I must PRIORITIZE my calling of being a WIFE and MOM. Good stuff. Don’t you like it when people just SAY IT LIKE IT IS!!!! I just read a good old fav of mine called, “A Woman after God’s own heart.” by Elizabeth George… So important to have accountability in my life so I can be all I was created to be. Doesn’t mean I am perfect and to hold myself to that standard would kill me, but I can aspire to be all that God intended me to be, “A Woman after HIS heart!” I love this analogy. David in the Bible was coined as a man after God’s own heart…and he was far from perfect, had some addictions and just didn’t ALWAYS do it right. Shwew am I glad. Glad there is always room for growth.

“Constantly remind the people about these laws, and you yourself must think about them every day and every night so that you will be sure to obey all of them. For only then will you succeed” Joshua 1:8

Jim was a driven man. He loved his wife and his four children. But the thing that consumed almost every waking thought was, “How can I be a greater success? How can I earn the praise of men?”

Through neglect his family began to disintegrate, and he came to me for counsel. His wife was interested in another man; he was alienated from his children. Three were involved in drugs and one had attempted suicide twice.

“Where have I gone wrong?” Jim asked.

I reminded him of the Scripture, “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul?” (Matthew 16:26)

According to Scripture, a man’s priorities are first, to love God with all his heart, his soul and his mind, and then to love his neighbor as himself. Since his closest neighbors are his wife and children, his second priority is his wife. A good marriage takes the Ephesians 5:25 kind of love. “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church,” a sacrificial, giving love.

The third priority is his children. He must show love to them, not by giving them things, but by giving them himself, spending time with them, letting them know they are far more important to him than his business.

A man must love his wife and children unconditionally as God loves him – not when, if, or because they are good and deserve to be loved.

And the fourth priority I discussed with Jim was his business. A man’s business must be dedicated to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Jim surrendered his life to Christ. After almost three years of implementing the Bible’s priorities, Jim’s family again was united in the love of Christ, and God had given Jim and his wife a new-found love for Himself and for each other.

The law of God is clear: When we disobey Him, he disciplines us as a loving father and mother discipline their child, and when we obey Him, He will bless us.

Bible Reading: James 2:1-8

Today’s Action Point: I will seek to please the Lord in all that I do, knowing that I will experience His blessings when I obey Him, and His discipline when I disobey Him.

Question: Are there any areas of your life where you need to trust God more? How can you begin to do so?

Blessing Your Future!

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right!”
(James 3:10, NLT).

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Did you know you have the power to bless or curse your future? Your words have tremendous power. If you go around saying things like “I don’t have what it takes. I’m so clumsy; I can’t get anything right. I’m so undisciplined. I’ll probably never lose this weight,” you just cursed your future. No, we’ve got to be extremely careful about what we allow to come out of our mouths. Realize your words are setting the direction for your life. Let me ask you today, which direction are you going? Are you declaring good things? Are you blessing your life, speaking words of faith over your future? Or, are you going around saying negative things like “Nothing good ever happens to me. I’ll probably never get out of debt. I’ll never break this addiction?”

Today, choose to bless your future. Choose to declare what God says. As you align your words with His Word, you’re setting your future up for success. You’re preparing your way for victory, and you will fulfill the destiny He has planned for you!

Wow how true is that? I totally believe that what you think about…you bring about. I strongly believe to be a STRONG, Effective and Powerful Leader you have to be humble and recognize your blessings. Recognizing blessings is the ability to see that it’s not about ME…or it wouldn’t be a blessing…it would just be justly deserved and earned. In order to recieve blessing, open up to it. Count your blessings, be thankful about everything and visualize yourself as the leading role in, “Your Dream Life” Start envisioning that life of your dreams as your life of NOW! God wants you to have every good gift possible. Make the choice to receive Him, and His blessings in your life.
~Kami Dempsey

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father God, I choose to speak blessing over my future. I choose to speak life over my future. Thank You for equipping me with everything I need to fulfill the destiny You have prepared for me. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

– Joel & Victoria Osteen

Passion…and where it will take us!

Last night on our company call one of our top leaders shared his idea of how to build this business the quickest and most effective. He reiterated the importance of being passionate about what you do and telling your story with passion… Whether you are in a home-based business or a stay at home mom, etc… it’s important to be passionate about what it is your are doing. I do what I do because it allows me to stay home with my children and give them the kind of life I want. Im not talking “money” Im talking with our time, energies and what we can do together with this freedom of time and finances. With that said, I love being an entrepreneur. The money is definitely a bonus, but it is my driving force. I am passionate about helping other moms achieve freedom. It’s what my blog is all about. It’s the encouragement, motivation and compass as to how to be the MOM of your dreams. For me it’s helping others physically and financially while being the BEST mom I can be. I am so excited to go out this week and share my story with PASSION.

WHEN PASSION WALKS IN THE ROOM, EVERYONE STANDS UP.

Passion is the spark that lights the gasoline that is life. Passion is what everyone wants and if you have it, people will either want to be like you or be with you. In a meeting or a party or in any group, the people with passion in their eyes are the people whom everyone else is listening to and watching. They’re the leaders. Everyone looks to passionate people for what’s next, because their passion leads us to horizons few have the vision or the courage to explore. People are not born passionate. Passion is the process by which you manifest your dreams, and far too many people in this world have given up on their dreams or sacrificed them for a comfortable way of life or a secure job. That’s why passionate people rule; they’re making their dreams happen. Entrepreneurs are passionate people. They’re not content to sit around and let life happen to them; they’re in control of making life happen. That’s why some people in this world are jealous of passionate people. We’re taught early to go to school, get good grades, get a good degree, then a good job with a good title in a good career track. Becoming an entrepreneur means learning to value ideas and passion over degrees and job titles. Entrepreneurs are working outside of the box, outside of the system. They’re taking risks most people only dream of. They’re using their brains and their hearts and their vision to become more realized people every day. People running on passion are 100 percent alive, using every single capacity God has given them to live life to the limit on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual spectrum every day. No wonder some people are jealous of passionate people. You don’t need those people.

Sowing Seeds!

I tell people everyday we are planting seeds. Hearing “no” doesn’t necessarily mean NEVER, it just means not now! In our business, network marketing…people have to be in the right place of transition to be ready to build their business. Not even necessarily get involved…because many will get involved but because the timing isn’t right will not BUILD a successful business, but in the right TIMING, pivotal point in their life most definitely will! With that said again I want to encourage you to plant seeds. Share with people daily the benefits of owning your own home based business…in my particular company with wellness products share how you feel or the value of prevention, etc…

I loved my reading today because I think in life people are constantly watching us. Our decisions, actions and the life we live tell a story. As we allow our story to unfold will we encourage people to try something new? Will our story empower others to go after their dream? I encourage each of us today to begin living life today, telling our story in such a way that we seek out to empower others to achieve greatness.

With all that said, if we do we believe that God wants the BEST for us then we will embrace his GIFT and not allow limitations to hold us back. He supplies our every need and offers a life of greatness. We just have to accept and embrace the gift.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness”
(2 Corinthians 9:10, NIV).

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

God desires to bring you increase. He’s provided you with seed so that you can invest into the lives of others. There is tremendous potential in any seed. A single seed can produce harvest of 30, 60 or 100-fold return! But that seed has to be planted. You can have a package of seeds sitting in a drawer for years and nothing will happen. But when you plant that seed in the ground, water it and tend to the weeds, that seed will begin to grow. It won’t take long before the beautiful harvest is ready to be received.

Remember, you have seeds of greatness on the inside of you. God has placed within you everything you need to be successful. But, you have to step out and sow those seeds. You have to boldly declare your faith and put action behind it. Keep an attitude of expectancy and go out believing that great things are coming your way. Be obedient to His Word because those seeds you sow will produce an abundant harvest of blessing all the days of your life.

Pray this prayer EVERY DAY:
A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father God, thank You for entrusting me with seed to sow. I want to be a wise steward of all Your resources. Give me wisdom and discernment to be obedient with my words and actions. Let everything I do bring honor to You. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Divine Interruptions

Today’s Word with Joel and Victoria

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight”
(Proverbs 3:5-6, NIV)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

We all have times when our plans don’t work out. We get delayed, interrupted, and inconvenienced. It’s easy to get frustrated and fight against everything that doesn’t go our way. But I’ve learned that every interruption is not bad. Every closed door doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong. Every delay doesn’t mean you’re not where you’re supposed to be. There is something I call a divine interruption where God, on purpose, will delay us to protect us from an accident. On purpose, He will close a door because it’s not His best. Sometimes, God will allow us to be inconvenienced so we can help someone else in need. We have to be willing to press through difficulty so we can be at the right place at the right time.

The next time you’re interrupted, delayed, or inconvenienced, don’t start thinking, “This is a pain. This is getting me off schedule.” No, get a new perspective. Look for what God wants to do because it could be divine interruption or divine protection. Trust Him today because He is directing your steps.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for choosing me. I surrender every area of my mind, will, and emotions to You. Use me for Your glory today and teach me to discern Your ways. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
