Reaching you Goals


For those of us in Mary Kay we are approaching the finish line. Our Seminar year ends June 30 and all of our yearly recognition is calculated by what happens in that timeframe. This is where the winners give it their all. This is where records are broken and belief barriers are shattered. It's my favorite time of year.

It occured to my that some of the things that I am about to share are applicable to anyone in business, not just Mary Kay. You can't hit a target that isn't there. So no matter what you are doing, it starts with a clear picture of what it is that you are reaching for. So if you are not on-target for any big goals or never even had the courage to set one, now is the time to do it. Reach deep inside and ask yourself- "if I knew that I couldn't fail, what is it that I want?". Take some time to really meditate on this. Don't allow your logic or fear to influence that answer. Once you have a picture of what it is, it must be crystal clear to you. Start to visualize how you will see and feel whenever you are in that place. For me, the year that I set a goal to be Queen of Sales (2005) I found other people who had already done it. I borrowed their video (dvd) and I watched it every day, seeing myself on stage, seeing my family there cheering me on, seeing me sitting on the throne. It was like a rehersal in my mind. I even borrowed a friend's tiara and put on the dress that I planned to wear and took a picture of me wearing the dress and the tiara. (side story here- when you do this, watch what you eat! As I got closer to finishing this goal the dress was too tight. I couldn't focus on losing weight and finishing this goal. I couldn't find another gold sequins gown because this was the one in my mind. So my husband ended up taking out the dress on the side where the sash was and carried a needle and thead that night in case I popped out of the dress!!!)

So those of you who are finishing your goals for this year, keep going, keep reaching! Your best work is done in the final hours. Don't give up. Don't sell yourself short. Take each day and make sure that every choice that you make is one that is taking you closer to that goal Have the discipline to do what has to be done, not what you feel like doing.

If you haven't found your goals or dreams yet what are you waiting for. Are you designing your life to be what you want it to be? You can, you know. Find out what brings you joy and use that as a reason. The law of attraction works, but you have to be willing to work also. I have found that the harder I work, the luckier I get!!! Make you own luck!! I WILL SEE YOU AT THE TOP!
Here is another great post on goal setting!

Bridal Services




Today I met with a bridal party, doing one of the things that I enjoy most about my business! These are before and after pictures that were taken at their Bridal Party Color Preview event. Don't they look stunning?
Imagine: It is your day! It is going to be perfect, you have waited your whole life for this day.
It is your wedding day!
It is all about the Bride, it is her day, she is happy and gorgeous her skin is flawless and her face is glowing! Her bridesmaids are lined up and are creating the frame. She stands out she shines and she is pristinely happy.
Who do you know who is recently engaged? I would love to help make her day a cherished memory forever! I will complement her dress, the photography, the veil, and setting. I will help the bride create the look that she desires for herself and her wedding party. I help set the mood, just as much as the flowers, the lighting and the music.
When a bride looks and feels beautiful with her groom at her side, the day is going to be amazing. (To see these Looks in more detail visit my Virtual Model Portfolio in the photo section of my profile on FACEBOOK)
