New Adventures

Hi blog world. What's new with me? Well, things have been kind of crazy around here since I moved back to the golden state. Shortly after moving here it felt like the world kind of knocked the wind out of my sails and I have spent the better part of the last month kind of moping around just looking for my next break. I had high hopes when I moved here and felt like life was not being fair. What I really was doing was sending negative energy out into the universe and wondering why the universe was only responding with negative outcomes. I realized I was doing this to myself and things were not going to get better if I did not change my attitude. So, here I am back to blogger land and ready for new adventures. I have spent the last several days with a new mind set and already feel 100 times better and things are falling into place. It really is incredible how one single thought can change your whole day; for better or for worse.

I have recently enrolled in school and am pursuing a Masters degree in Education. I begin classes online next Tuesday. Yikes! For some time now I have wanted to be a teacher but have let things get in my way or talk me out of it. I am not always too good when it comes to acting on promptings from within, but have finally decided to give in and pursue this dream of mine. I am still actively using my oils and continue to be excited for Strongbrook and what it is and will allow me to do. I couldn't be happier with these new adventures and look forward to each day!

Long Time No See

Sorry for the lack of posting. My last several weeks has been crazy with the move and settling in. To catch you up, my last day of work was February 28th and that was a very bittersweet day. The following week the moving van came and  we were pulling out of town on to our new adventure. For those who have ever moved out of state, you know what a feat this is! Anyway, as with life, things  didn't quite go as planned which meant we got a late start on our long drive. Then throw in a blown tire on the uhaul and that makes for a very long night with cats and dogs in tow. But alas, we arrived and have been settling in. I am working temp and expanding my knowledge so I can continue on my journey to financial freedom. I love my life here and am so excited for what lies ahead. I never thought I'd miss California so much, but nothing makes you realize how much you miss it until you move away. I miss some of my coworkers in Utah but am so happy to be home!  Pics to come soon.

Small Steps

So sorry for the lack of post on Monday. It has been a wild week and I am just now getting time to sit down and write this post. This weeks quote from "The Secret" seems very fitting for me this week. And of course, I hope it speaks to you as well. 

"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step." - Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
The Secret

Lately in my life I am finding that I am taking a lot of "first" steps and you know what? It is amazing. Through all the chaos that is my life right now, I feel good about my future and where I am headed. I am not sure I could have said that 6 months ago. I was fearful and inhibited by my own thoughts, but taking the first step into my future has been so liberating. 

My challenge to you is to take that first step if you have not already done so. Fear is okay; I still have fear. But, it is when we let that fear overpower that we lose ourselves in it. Don't let fear hold you back; click here if you would like help in taking that first step. Get a free game plan and get your life back one step at a time!

Dare to Dream

Week #3 From "The Secret"


"You can have, do or be anything you want." - Joe Vitale.
The Secret

This weeks quote really hits me hard. I am feeling an array of emotions at this point and am extremely overwhelmed (in a good way) with the happenings in my life. I am very thankful that I have found two very different, yet incredible companies that are allowing me to make the changes in my life that I have been wanting for quite some time now; both from a tangible and physical/well-being level. I am thankful for some very dear friends who have shared these opportunities that I am now benefiting from...you know who you are! In addition to these changes, I am about to embark on a new adventure to Northern California. Some have called me brave and some ask if I am nervous. I wouldn't say it is bravery nor am I feeling nervous. Rather, I am entering this new phase with excitement and a sure knowledge that I will be successful. How do I know? Because I want it. I feel it. I am living it! I am so incredibly blown away by how applying simple changes in my outlook has helped me be successful in more ways than one. By being grateful for the small things and seeing the good in life has really opened doors for me that I would have otherwise not have had opened. I would be lying if I said I never have negative thoughts or feelings of defeat...I am human after all, and those feelings will always be there. The key is to turn those feelings around and try to focus on what you do have that is great. It works every time, guaranteed! The changes I have seen in my own life have been remarkable. My hope for you is that you can know that the sky is the limit and you truly can do anything! I challenge each of you to dream...and dream big. 

I had to share this picture because 

there is so much truth to this! Don't 

build someone else's dream...build 

your own! 

Power in Words!

Here is your weekly dose of "The Secret."

"Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions" - Albert Einstein.
The Secret

I have a sometimes crazy imagination which I think has led me to the places I've been and to the things I have accomplished. I am sometimes told that I am too imaginative and not realistic in my goals, dreams, and beliefs. Maybe that is true, maybe it is not. But you know what? I would rather dream big and set my sights high than believe that I am not capable of achieving great things. So, go out and let yourself imagine great things to come...then sit back and enjoy what the universe has in store for you!

Superstar Entrepreneur

The title of this post may seem odd to some of you out there, but for me this is the first step into my new journey. I was so blessed to attend a Strongbrook Convention over this last weekend and am ready to take back control of my life. I know I can do it and am so excited to see what this next year brings!

This is a subject I have been pondering for a number of years.....about 4 years to be exact. About this time 4 years ago I was in S. Cal and had just finished my final semester of college. I was at a point where I needed change and was afraid of the fact that I would never do much with my life aside from sit at a desk all day everyday while working to make someone else rich.  Sounds like fun, right? Yeah, I didn't think so. The problem was that I did not know how to fix it. I'm a fixer, so when I couldn't figure out what to do, I decided to move...out of state. Not sure that was the best idea, but then again, I believe things happen for a reason whether we ever know the reason or not. For me, I think I know some of the reasons. And, I always say "go big or go home!" Anyway, I digress. Fast forward to today; I am back at a desk yet again making someone else look good and reap the rewards. Don't get me wrong, I like my job and do get my own recognition, but at the end of the day my earning potential is capped, I get told when I can and can't leave, and I spend more hours here than I do at my home. This concept that we have been brainwashed to think has really been weighing heavy on me these last few months and I am bound and determined to change my destiny. And, I know I can.

One reason I know this is because I have tested it. I recently learned about "The Secret" which is all about the law of attraction. I have put this to the test over the last several months, and have been shocked by the outcomes. Believe me, it works! So, I have decided I am going to make "The Secret" a part of this blog. I am going to share quotes weekly from this amazing movie/novel in hopes that you too can be inspired. So, here we go.

Week 1:

"Whatever we think about and thank about we bring about." - Dr John F Demartini.

Trying New Things

I have thought about trying a more holistic form of medicine for quite some time but never really knew where I would begin. It is kind of funny how opportunities come knocking which jumpstart your dreams into realities. Anyway, about a month ago I decided to give essential oils a try as I have heard many good things about them...insert doTerra. My mom has a friend who uses them and gave use some information about their many many uses. We ordered some and have been using them religiously for just over a month. They are simply divine and have helped me to get off my anxiety meds which is a huge plus in my life. The meds have horrible side effects that I am not so sure are worth the one issue they seem to fix. The oils are helping and leave no negative side effects to worry about later...bonus! I am having a blast using them and trying different combinations to solve different problems. I am even going to start using them to make my own cleaning supplies and what not so I am not putting toxic chemicals in the air and on my skin.

In addition to the oils, I just today tried acupuncture for the first time and was very impressed. I have been to a chiropractor many times and have seen the effects that has on your overall well being, but never have I used acupuncture. Well, I found a chiropractor who also uses acupuncture for certain issues. I have a few more treatments in the next couple of weeks and am feeling very hopeful that my headaches will be gone! And, this also helps with the anxiety without the added nasty side effects of modern medication. I think those ancient Chinese were on to something with these amazing healing ideas!
