See you at the Top of the Mountian


I have had to kick some stumbling stones out of the way at times in my life, but I am here to share something that is important to me.

I was raised in a single mother home, and I have one brother. I got pregnant with my first child when I was in high school. That was a pretty tuff thing to go thru. (that first child is now a kind, loving, intellectual, caring, independent, 24 years old!).

I know what it is like to have to get thru some really difficult things in life and I think I have done a pretty excellent job thus far.

I struggled for a long time in almost all aspects of my life. Financially, Personally, and Emotionally.  For years and years,

 UNTIL.....

One day, in about 2002, I woke up and thought...

"you know what? you don't have to keep living like this. Your life is like a book that YOU are  writing. If you write the first chapter and read it and you don't like how it sounds, you crumble it up,  throw it out and start writing it again, and again if necessary, until it is the exact way you want it to be. WHY? Because it is YOUR book, and you CAN!"

From that exact moment in time... I started thinking and acting differently, and a couple of months later, my life was TOTALLY transformed!

I have had the opportunity to successfully start and continue to operate a couple of home based businesses (that has also allowed me to change the lives of a few people - and that is a MAGNIFICENT feeling to say the least!) I also lead a successful, determined, motivated team of wonderful people. All because of that moment I decided to rewrite MY book!

Believe it or not, the power of thought is the most powerful tool we can use! We attract what we wish on the universe.

For example, if you wake up every morning and wish you had NO debt, your thoughts are manifesting your future and your future DOES NOT hear the "NO" in the "NO debt" wish, it hears you thinking of DEBT! And... that is exactly what you will get in your future, a life of constant debt.

You see, its not what you are thinking, its those few chosen thoughts through out your day that have FEELING with them, whether its joy and excitement, or hardship and sadness. Did you hear that correctly? It is those FEW CHOSEN thoughts that make you have a FEELING with them. That is what your future holds.

One of my friends is correct when she talks about vision instead of what you see right in front of you. If you can see past your current situation, and vision a wonderful fulfilling life, of love, and family, and friends, and travel and money and freedom, then you will begin to see the difference.

You see, to all you strong women out there, listen to me good, when you keep focused on your VISION, with determination and will, you learn how to kick aside all the stumbling stones in our way, because you are determined to get to the top of your mountain.

We DO NOT stumble over mountains, we stumble over little tiny stones on our way to the mountain, but when you have a fire inside of you, when you are determined to get to that mountain top, because you know the view from the top of that mountain is going to be breath taking, at that point in time, you will realize that your burning desire to get there will make those stones in your way seem exactly like what they are - little, tiny, insignificant stones that really, are nothing at all, and you FIND a way to get over them and past them and around them, each one, one step at a time, as you come upon them, and you know that each one you get past, is one little troublesome stone closer to the top of that mountain!

YOUR future is in YOUR hands. Only YOU have the power over YOUR life. Regardless of your upbringing, your past, your views of life as they are at this moment, hear what I am telling you, it can change your life. YOU have the POWER to CHANGE the way YOU live!

You cannot continue to do the same thing you have been doing over and over and expect different results! (some call that the definition of insanity) To get different results, you must change something, you must do something differently, then and only then, will you see a change in your life.

I also want to touch briefly on the home based business owners out there, especially to ones who have just started in the industry.

REGARDLESS of what you sell, market, advertise, etc., If you are just starting out,  you MUST be determined to succeed. You must feel that fire deep within, you must want success AND...KNOW that you ARE going to have it. Have the faith that you are a strong woman, and you can do whatever it is you want to do. Everyone is different, Just because people in the business are making 6 figure incomes...doesn't mean that everyone will. And likewise, just because everyone is not a 6 figure income earner, DOESN'T mean that YOU wont be.

The difference between those who succeed in this business, and those who don't, is DETERMINATION!

Stay away from all the people who belittle your ambitions and your beliefs. Surround yourself with the company of great people, because a great person will always try to make you believe that YOU can be great too! You attract who you are, so KNOW that you are great and others will think the same of you.

If you have that fire in your heart, then you WILL succeed with your business. You have to be determined and stick with it thru the good and the bad, because the good is way better than the bad, and that's the goal, THE MOUNTAIN TOP!

Kick all those small tiny pebbles out of your way and show the world that you are great. You are a woman, you influence the whole world, in every way! They say if you educate a girl, you educate a community.  Think of how powerful the world become if EVERY girl, No matter where she lives in this world, has the opportunity to get an education, how great would she become?  How many mountains would she climb?  How many mountains would she help others climb?

See you at the top of the mountain!
