The Fifty Success Habits

While in Sydney I met a woman named Judy. She was soooo nice and she took me to church on Easter Sunday. It was such a blessing. While parting our ways she talked about a man named Craig Harper. He is a motivational speaker and is pretty famous in Australia.

I had the chance to look at his website (www.craigharper.com.au) and I came across the article that Judy had talked to me about. Take a look. The 50 Success Habits. Today in my weekly Monday ING meetings I learned about forming good habits- prospecting, making appointments, closing sales. With structure and routine in your day, success will come.

Despite the crappy day I had today, I have to pick myself up. I realize where I need to direct my energies and hopefully the rest will follow. The 50 Success Habits can be used for anyone and for any situations- Judy used it to help her lose weight. For me, I see myself relating to the habits in helping me with my career.

The road to success is not easy but having a roadmap can make it a heck of a lot easier.

Big Girls Don't Cry

Oh oh oh oh oh how discouraged I am right now.
I know now why you have to have a 'tough skin' in the business. People give you some of the greatest happiness but also give you this biggest headache.
I guess I can't be so surprised that things aren't easy- though it did seem so in the beginning. Too easy in fact. I should of not set up my expectations- now I am back at zero- a big and hurtful tumble to the ground.

Ahh life is full of ups and downs. My bubble of happiness was left in Sydney, a sort of escape- though I didn't know it was that until now.

I did cry- shed a tear- maybe many but on the bright side- from rock bottom you can only go up. Press on! Success is persevering through what you think you cannot. I will be stronger, I WILL.
