At 9 pm last night I grabbed a book, kissed my husband good night and said, "this has been a really crappy day and I just need to go to bed so it will end"
That I am sharing this with you is kind of a big deal for me.
I am the person who always LOOKS like she has it together.
I don't, but I fake a good game.
I get tired
I get beat down
I get side tracked by the bs we all deal with each day
I am a mother, a wife, a daughter, a friend, a sister, a worker, a volunteer…..and sometimes it just gets to be too much
Not in the "I'm so busy way"
But more of the "stop the world, I need to refocus because whatever I am doing right now is not working"
So at 9:05 last night I was sound asleep.
And at 6 am this morning I was up and ready to go. Still a little bruised by the previous day. But this morning I feel ready to take it on. To head straight into those things that sent me reeling yesterday.
So what does this have to do with your direct sales business?
You will have tough times
You will have disappointments
And if you are reaching high there are times that will bring you to your knees.
You will feel not smart enough or talented enough or brave enough.
And right at that moment maybe you aren't
But that moment will pass
And it will be okay.
Grab a book
Go to bed
Regroup
And in the light of day you will see that you have everything you need to succeed.
So be nice to yourself and kick some ass today!
Be Inspired!

Boy did I need that, I was / am so close to EARNING manager title. closest I have ever been…
did you know if you are at the title of Manager you earn a free event registration? I was striding for that, giving major price breaks for the starter kit, my downline had recruited, so I thought she would promote, and Wa-La….MANAGER and free convention!! To me this would be like earning the trip, as I have never been to convention!!! SO PUMPED, and feelinglike I accomplished something (finally)with my stampin Up business….when alas, found out, requirements were not met, and convention would not be earned for free 🙁 HUGE let dwon for me….
BUT TODAY IS A NEW DAY< I WILL CONTINUE TO STRIVE TO EARN MANAGER, HELP MY DOWNLINE PROMOTE, HELP KEEP THOSE ACTIVE WHO SIGNED UP RECENTLY, AND IT WILL BE MY GOAL FOR NEXT YEAR!! I WILL FIND A WAY TO PAY FOR CONVENTION...as this may just be what i need to inspire me even more!!! Thank you Lisa!!
