A few years ago, something was tugging at my spirit, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat. I found myself wanting to paint. My spirit kept saying paint, paint. I let two days go by before I acted on it. 

I went to the store and purchased paint, canvas, brushes and anything that I could get my hands on to get whatever it was that was in me out. I stayed up for 3 straight days painting. I don't know what was in me, but I know that it was tugging at me so bad that I couldn't even get past what was in me. My energy level was  so high that I felt like flying. 

A love letter, just because I love you, I appreciate you, I value our friendship, I understand you. I'm here to tell you that I am with you on this journey as you live your best life.

Before you decide whether a single goal fits into your goals program, you should work that goal through a process that can help determine whether you should be pursuing this goal at the current time. This can take considerable time but it can save you much time and frustration by eliminating goals that are not for you at this time and helping to identify what you need to focus on now.

1. Target in on your goal:  Your goal must be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely. (Smart Goals) Remember: Some goals must be big and some goals must be long-range.

Significant goals must be broken down into smaller parts to ensure daily accountability. It’s better to break your goals down monthly, weekly and daily, step by step gets you closer to the results that you are looking for.

2. Identify how you benefit from the goal: People often fail to reach their goals because they concentrate on the costs rather than the benefits. “If I lose the weight,” they reason, “I’ll have to give up this and do that.” Or “If I quit smoking, I know that I’ll gain weight and be miserable and difficult to get along with.”

Instead of concentrating on the negatives, think of the benefits that you’re going to enjoy. As you set goals, make a list of the tangible rewards that will be yours when you reach each goal. Each time you begin to ask yourself whether pursuing a goal is worth the effort, simply take out the list of benefits and read them aloud again.

3. List the obstacles that stand between you and your goal: You need to identify obstacles in order to be realistic and avoid being surprised. People have experienced many times that they had no idea that pursuing such-and-such a goal was going to be so demanding, require so much effort, take so long, and involve so many unexpected pitfalls. Careful planning in advance eliminates much of this disappointment, but you must understand that you can’t always see the roadblocks ahead. That’s why commitment, attitude, responsibility, and focus on the benefits remain constant necessities. Patience is also extremely important. Just remember that by keeping yourself focused on the goal, you can see the benefits and not just the obstacles.

Very few people get excited about obstacles. It took a long time, but I learned to get excited about obstacles because it creates excitement in my life, in addition to me looking forward to another growth spurt and being able to share the experience. Disappointments or setbacks of any kind are seldom viewed with enthusiasm. Yet those very difficulties should generate excitement, if for no other reason than that overcoming obstacles makes you strong and enables you to soar to greater heights.

It took a minute for me to grasp Smart goals but with help from my Coaches I was able to reach my goals and become an entrepreneur, which is easy when you love what you do. Here’s to dreaming bigger!

Every day is a day to celebrate! Celebrating being different sounds funny right? But how many of us actually take time out to think about celebrating being different?

I’ve been attending conferences, workshops and symposiums all year, and I have taken away so many nuggets and I am so excited to share them with you!  To be surrounded by  other women in business,  new entrepreneurs, coaches, game changers, change agents,  and authorities was and enlightening experience. We were women from all different walks of life and had many things in common. We  have businesses, struggles, and challenges and we all individually at one point in our lives decided to take a leap of faith to pursue our passion.

I heard stories about their challenges and how they got to where they are today. These dynamic women shared a part of them that new entrepreneurs like myself needed to hear. It all resonated with me, and how something so simple as listening to your gut can be a life changing moment in life and in your business. It is so very important to take commitment seriously by focusing on your life every day. Get up close and personal with your vision.  What do you aspire to do?

While I enjoy attending these conferences for the information that I receive, I also  enjoy the stories even more, they are very uplifting, motivating and inspiring. To know that I am not the only woman questioning my direction and feeling alone even with a support system was good to know. There was so much that resonated with me. Being a woman in business and reaching your level of success is about being different, not being satisfied with the status quo.

I have had a lot of personal struggles with time management, being a woman trying to manage time between my career, my businesses and my household have been very challenging. I have missed several opportunities because I simply and honestly didn’t have the energy to follow through on a lot of occassions.  I have just recently started to master listening to myself and my body, and in listening  to myself I found that the body is genious.

Our bodies will let us know when to sit down, when to get rest etc. I was trying to cram my schedule together, make things fit because I felt that if I could get more things accomplished in my day  it would make me feel better. Wrong!

Craming and trying to frame things isn’t who it is that I truly am, and it took a minute for me to understand and realize that.  So what I started to do was reach out for help from my support system to work this problem out, my take away after several conversations was to give myself permission to go with the flow. My flow, my way.

So once I started to gather my thoughts and pull this whole thing together, my schedule, my me time and my goals it all started to fall into place.  You see I am not just an entrepreneur, I also have a full time job so one of the first things that I did with the help of my coach was rearrange my schedule based on my days off.

I don’t have a regular schedule my days off fall on tuesday and wednesday, and as I tried to cram my business in those days it wasn’t working. She suggested that I make one of those my day off, which is wednesday.

I was excited, I wanted to do something different for my first day off, I wanted to experience the freedom that I hadn’t felt in a long time. So I went to the beach, it was 60 degrees that day and it was an hour long drive. I got there and I saw older couples walking on the boardwalk holding hands happy and full of joy.

I thought to myself this is what it feels like! I walked for eight miles and I took pictures and recorded the sound of the water hitting the rocks. I let the sun shine inside my heart. I set my intentions for the day and inhaled the air as if I were thirsty. I gave myself permission to let go, to breathe, and realign myself to flow effortlessly on my journey to help others do the same.
