Woah!!! Insane reality by my friend! 👇🏽👇🏽 ”I just graduated college with $100,000 in debt”, but can’t get a job that remotely pays my debt… yeah, people clap, celebrate, and even hug you.
“I just got a loan for $400,000 to buy my first home”, that you really can’t afford, yeah people clap, celebrate, and even hug you.
“I just got a loan for $40,000 for a new car”, drive off the lot and the value decreases $10,000…yeah people clap celebrate and even hug you.
That’s $540,000 in total debt most people are living in (add a few hundred thousand for those living in Southern California), but they are feeling good about it because they are being celebrated for it.
Now, go tell those same people you invested a couple hundred dollars to start your own business…
“Whoa, are you sure?” ◀️ “What are you going to do if it doesn’t work?”◀️ “Umm.. I don’t think those things really work”◀️ “Do you think you can get your money back?”◀️ “I don’t believe in those things (i.e i don’t believe in you)!” ◀️
🦀 Picture a bucket full of crabs with no lid… the crabs never escape the bucket. The moment a crab tries to get out of the bucket, the other crabs pull it back down.
Pay attention to who you are surrounding yourself with and who is speaking into your life!!!
I jumped out of the bucket. I grabbed as many people that would hold on and took them with me! We are a tribe over 60 strong and we’ve never looked back.
▶️I’m sure! ▶️The products speak for themselves. ▶️Ive built a residual income ▶️my business of free to join and free to run! ▶️believing in MYSELF was all it took! . . .
We’ve made sales out to be such a dirty industry. But I read an incredible sentence….. “Selling is simply listening.”
When i read that from a friend, it all clicked in my head.
Selling is simply listening.
It’s listening to what someone needs. Listening to their dreams. Listening to what they want.
And then asking myself if that’s a need I can meet with the resources I have.
I listen to stories every single day. I get texts and messages from countless people who share their stories with me…..
•The story of a mom who feels like she lost herself in pregnancy and just wants to feel like herself in her skin again.
•The story of a college student who wants to graduate debt free because she’s seen her parents struggle and she wants more for her future.
•The story of someone who is struggling to feel better after a cancer battle. A fertility battle. An emotional battle. A weight battle… the list goes on.
•The story of a wife who has a crazy dream to retire her hardworking husband and I know that I can help her bring him home.
I’m a professional listener.
Many times, I am able to join and even change (for the better!) the story of the person I’m listening to. Sometimes I can’t.
But most of the time, I listen, I share, we lock arms—and lives get changed.
You earn the right to hear someone’s story every time you make the choice to tell yours!
So next time you write someone off because “they sell something” maybe just try telling them your story. See what pieces you can fit together.
Because absolutely everyone deserves to be heard.
And who knows—maybe, they just might be able to change your life. 🙌🏼 #ChooseJoy

How do you talk to yourself? Are you picking yourself apart?
Let’s try looking at yourself in the mirror and saying ..
Is your mind racing around with little focus? 🐿 #squirrel
Or do you have a plan, it’s written down and put in a place for you to focus? 🎯
Habbakuk 2:2 says, “And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.”
God tells us to write our goals down, to focus on the them, and then to run! So focus on your goals, and then put in the work! Your focus determines your reality! 💯👀💪
My word for 2020 is Persistence. Finding this word was hard for me this year, but after praying about it, the definition sealed it for me.
Persistence – firm or obstinate continuance in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.
This is what I will focus on this year! It’s a word that I will apply to all aspects of my life…spiritual, financial, business development, relationships…
Sometimes I just don’t feel like doing certain things. 🤦♀️ Who can relate? 🙋♀️ Ugh!
It doesn’t even have to be something hard either. It could just be that I’m feeling lazy, and don’t want to get out of bed on cold mornings! Or taking my makeup off at night! 🤷♀️
Sometimes, we allow our “feelings” to get in the way of our goals. I want to build positive habits that become second nature to me, just as I did when I learned to brush my teeth daily. Habits that are ingrained into my daily routine. Habits that when completed, help me towards my goals my dreams. Determination is the only thing can help me with the transition though. You have to find it within yourself!💯
Anytime I’ve FELT broke…..it’s MOTIVATED me to press in & not stop until I get what I need.
👉🏼Is it an excuse or a motivation?👈🏻
🧠 Here’s what I know…..
👉🏼 God doesn’t want us broke.
👉🏼 We are blessed to be a blessing.
👉🏼 God gives us opportunities for blessings in different ways.
👉🏼 These opportunities will not always be available.
👉🏼 It’s up to us to be open to those opportunities when we see them.
👉🏼 It’s also up to us to work hard & do our part to achieve our goals & be good stewards with the opportunities & blessings He presents to us

We see someone accomplish a goal that we want, and instead of just being happy for them…we think other thoughts. Thoughts like:
Well she is just naturally gifted.
Everything always goes her way.
She just has the golden touch.
She doesn’t have the same struggles I do.
She is just destined for greatness.
While these thoughts may not be bad of themselves, what we are really adding to the end is…BUT I’M NOT.🤦♀️
Instead, what we don’t want to admit, is maybe she is more DETERMINED than I am on achieving the goal. Maybe she didn’t procrastinate when I did. Maybe she talked with more people than I did. Maybe she worked harder than I did. 🤷♀️
If you are already working as hard as you can towards your goal, and you are determined to achieve it, then just put in the time needed! It will happen for you too! And in will be cheering you in at the finish line! 😍🎉
