What I learned from real estate...

In real estate, it is better to own the worst house on a great street as opposed to owning the best house on a bad street. You can always improve your house on the great street and your value will increase but no matter how much you do to the great house on the bad street, your value will never go up.

This is also true in life. I have learned that it is better to surround yourself with positive people who are where you want to be rather than with people who are negative and always going backwards.

Sometimes we need to raise our own standards, challenge ourselves and rise up to higher expectations!

Whats the difference between living & existing?

Answer: Emotion

I have heard so many women lately saying that they are walking through life without feeling a thing. They have become numb to life. They are so numb that they do not feel anger, love, passion, sadness, joy, and most times they do not even realize they are in this state.
We have to remember every single day to smile, laugh, cry, yell, breathe, love, and to just feel passion. Make a list of what makes you happy, if you don't remember, think about what used to make you happy. Let the list act as a guide and start doing the things that create joy.
Also remember, as women we give give give and sometimes forget to give to ourselves. Remember to fill your cup first and let everyone else have what flows over. If your cup is half empty, you have less to give others and less leftover for you.

You don't know what you missed.....

January's meeting was great! We talked about setting realistic goals, we discussed happiness and how to attain it, we also talked about finding joy and relaxation techniques.

So many times we as women forget to take care of ourselves. We are so focused on our kids, spouse, job, friends and so many other things that we forget to remember what makes us happy and to pursue it.

Remember the 3 things that will get you back into a peak state:

1 Focus- focus on more positive empowering things
2 Phsyiology- stand up straight, smile, be alert
3 Language- use empowering words, never name call, say "yes"

So curl up with a cup of tea in your coziest sweatpants and read a great book! Think about the ways to relax and improve your life. Most of all.... enjoy life!
