Failing Isn't Failure

53211741_10101758504026202_7778765219978805248_n.jpg

Just because you fail...doesn't mean you ARE DESTINED for failure.....let me explain... March 2017 was a REALLY hard time for me. I had just closed my Fitness studio (which added to my list of Failed businesses) & Eddie and I decided to move back to Indiana. It was cheaper to live here & we could hang with our friends & family we hadn't seen in forevaaaaaaa.....

Soon after we moved back one of my besties from High School, Candace (Follow her here>>> Just Posted)))) and I started hanging out again.(she lives less than 2 miles away πŸ’•) We both began planning how we were going to really start to grow and build our online businesses....She was a full time teacher and wife and mom to 2 littles....ummmm, where she found the time...I dont even know. I think she owns a tardis and can stop time πŸ€£(Dr. WHO reference in case you ask πŸ˜‰)...... and now LESS than less than 2 years later we are both "living the dream" as she says every time I see her πŸ’• Now Tuesdays are OUR days to sweat, and build our dreams TOGETHER πŸ’•πŸ’ͺπŸ˜‰ I love it. And I'm so thankful that this FREEDOM has brought us even closer together. I love you so much Candace thanks for being a dreamer AND a do-er!!! Our friendship & partnership is something I don't take for granted!!!!! πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜

Friends, if you ever considered working from home, lets talk. There's so much opportunity to grow and help others, & just because you have tried something in the past and it doesn't go as planned does NOT mean that you aren't cut out for it. I've come not just one or even 2, but 5, yes FIVE Business ventures that have failed!!!!! But I now Know My mindset wasn't right back then. And yes, Mindset is #1!!!!!! I'm so grateful I decided to NOT give up and really focus on my attitude and thoughts and let myself Dream bigger and show up for that dream..EVERYDAY....SO, Lets work on that and see where it takes us, yea!?!?!? Ya ready!?!?#dreambigger #doallthethings

Always Be Learning

53145827_10101757537138852_8667871270416678912_o.jpg

βœ…Always. 
βœ…Be.
βœ…Learning. 
We might think that we don't need to learn a new skill right now or we might be too scared to try something new or think it can wait when we have more time to learn it... but we don't FIND time time for it, We MAKE time for it! When we stop learning we put a cap on our own success. We miss chances to meet amazing people & to be a part of an amazing community. So go learn!!! And yes, I would DEFINITELY put a STRONG by Zumba training on your list πŸ’ͺπŸ˜‰ 
I'm so so grateful for another chance to learn & STRONG By Zumba was one of the best Trainings I've ever had. The day went by so fast and it was so full of energy! Thank you so much Kelly Bullard Zesfor such an amazing day!!!!!! And thanks to the "form-ulators" πŸ˜‰ Tracy SchultzBrooke Park @Santi!!! Y'all have talent and passion beyond belief!!!! Thank you for sharing it!!!! I Can't wait to start teaching this INCREDIBLE format!!!! πŸ˜ #strongbyzumba #sbz#sbztraining

Bad Habits

52650484_10101752393856032_6568448310753886208_n.jpg

Bad habits....we ALL have them. So why is it that some people can create better habits and others can't? Well, from my own experience I have a theory.... Earlier today I went live talking about my finger nail biting bad habit. It wasn't until I was 28 when I FINALLY kicked that habit...
Ya see it might sound ridiculous but I hated how this struggle held me back and took ownership over me.....Especially when my girl friends wanted to go get their nails done or show people my wedding ring. I did NOT want people to see my bloody cuticles. Sorry for the visual but I was seriously looking a hot mess y'all. πŸ˜­

Now whether you relate to this story or not I want you to know something; I feel that we ALL have a habit or something from our past that we are embarrassed about. Or we have shame & we do our very best to keep it hidden. We avoid situations where it might be seen, or talked about. So we hide it....for AS LONG AS WE CAN. 

I've learned that THING is given power every time we stuff it down further. The ONLY way to overcome ANY struggle in life is to do the MOST embarrassing thing. We TALK about it. We say ALOUD to our self and others...that this THING is no longer going to control me. This THING has been with me too long. I'm ready to release this because I am ready to write a NEW story for my life. It might not be easy but when I get on the other side of this I KNOW that freedom will be worth it. Because I AM WORTH IT. And ya know what!?!? 7 years later I AM Nail Bite free...but even more than that, I truly believe that was the catalyst in my life where I started to re-write my story. I believed I could...and I did. There's enough proof that I CAN do more. And I believe that because I accomplished this, then I KNOW I Can be successful in other things and I Can help others take back control of their life too. 

If you have a struggle too that needs to talked about, I'm here for you. Lets rewrite a better story. TOGETHER. πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

20 Minutes

53150319_10101748126442962_2248759530890461184_n.jpg

Day 19/42 DONE!!! Less is MORE when it comes to a 20 minute workout that STILL gives ya results. πŸ’ͺπŸ˜‰ But let's be real, it took me EXACTLY 27 minutes to finish because I needed to stop and catch my breath. I am definitely learning to be humble and not let my ego dictate what I can or cannot do. I'm grateful I started this and so glad my clients and fellow team-mates keep me motivated to keep GOING....

Btw, do YOU need help!? I'm opening up registration for my March group this weekend! Lets talk about goals and see if this fitness and nutrition program can help you also. I mean 20 min ya'll. πŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈ message or comment below. #imheretohelp

Fear

52924179_10101747172684302_200879674883047424_n.jpg

I want you to know that I used to talk myself out of SO MANY opportunities because I had FEAR...
Fear of what others think....
Fear or not doing it RIGHT...
Fear of setting TOO high of goals because if I didn't reach them then felt I couldn't deal with that let down from myself & letting down others.

But things changed when I finally had had enough. I said....If I TRULY want things to change I MUST CHANGE.... Not sure how I will get there, but I will look to my mentors and stop envying their success. Instead I will learn from them. I WILL succeed because I will focus on the BEST outcome and not the "what if I fail" outcomes."

Listen guys...it's not EASY putting myself out there every day on social media, feeling the judgement of others, but what I've come to find out is there's a lot more GOOD in the world than we think.... You find it in the HELPERS. Just like Mr. Rogers said. LOOK FOR THE HELPERS When disaster strikes. They are ALWAYS there. We are united by the need to love and take care of each other. Isn't that the BEST view of this world!?!? πŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ’•πŸ˜­πŸ’•When I believe that every day then yes I WILL Show up. I WILL be a helper. And I'm here to show you whether you are ready or not. πŸ˜˜ If you want REAL CHANGE then search out your mentors. Search out the HELPERS. Even if it's not me. There's a better life for all of us. Ya ready?!?!?!

Constant Reminders

52699429_10101746303381392_1476250911847219200_n.jpg

Yesterday in my Accountability group I talked about ego and comparison getting in the way of me reaching goals. Not just physically but emotionally too. Then in my personal development I heard that same message. AGAIN...I think I need to start listening. πŸ€” 

Do you pay attention to the CONSTANT reminders that life is teaching you!?!? And if you are listening then don't JUST listen. Learn from them and take ACTION on it. Those reminders are there but are you believing it? Are you acting like you believe it? If the answer is no, then I need you to hear this reminder. 
πŸ’•You Are enough. 
πŸ’•You are loved. 
πŸ’•You have a purpose. 

Please treat yourself with kindness and love and respect. We accept the love we think we deserve. You deserve more babe. Drop the ego. Drop the comparison. Drop the destructive walls because life starts to fall into place when you Choose to love Yourself. #transform2k19 #selfcare

Reality vs. Flex

51993488_10101744900323132_4871820170227613696_n.jpg

Reality vs. Flex because y'all need to know I don't walk around with a popped hip & abs all day πŸ€£πŸ˜œ
Please never compare your chapter 1 to someone's chapter 500th flexed pic. In fact we should NEVER live in comparison!!!! 

Truth guys....I've always been harsh on myself and played the COMPARISON game wayyyyyyy too much. That led me down some pretty dark places. Never feeling enough or even heard brought me nothing but headaches and heartaches. It could be the middle child syndromeπŸ‘«πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ‘¬ but if I wanted to be truly happy I needed to stop feeling(& acting) inadequate and start believing I was enough. Because only the person who BELIEVED she was enough would show up to her BEST life. I now see that and everyday those negative voices are still there, but they are quieter now more than ever. It won't happen overnight but your happiness depends on you loving who you are NOW & not wishing for someone else's life. You are enough and you always will be. Lets just love and appreciate our own uniqueness...because, let's be real πŸ’πŸ½β€β™€οΈwe are ALL pretty darn awesome✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
