I am so excited.  I got a new laptop and it is so fast….  Nope, I am not on it now because I am still trying to figure out how to use it.. lol

It is a Lenovo Ideapad…   and it is silver….  lol.. that is about all I know about it… 

No, not really.  It has 5 eyes and a smart fan…   or is that i5 and a Smart Fan Noise Control..

I did do some research on it before I bought it but you know when you don’t know what you are looking at it is really had to figure things out…  I know it was better than the one at Office Depot that I was going to get….  So I figured it would be even better….

Now to get my info that I need transferred to the new computer…..  

Off to You Tube for some instructional videos….   Love em…

Have a Happy Day!

This has been my worst day on the computer in a LONG time.

I got on early to start my what I thought was going to be a very productive day but all of that changed when I couldn’t get my programs to work correctly…

You see I am not the smartest person in the world when it comes to computer and techie stuff…  As a matter of fact I am extremely challenged when it comes to it….

It totally blows my mind when I can do something one day and then 3 days later I sit down to do the exact same thing and my computer has a totally different idea for me….

I am not a drinker.  Don’t like the stuff but I really thought about making a run to the local ABC store today…..  My head feels like someone has been squeezing it.  Just not a good computer day for me…..  So far…

I say So Far because I am not one that easily gives up.  I started at 8:00 am this morning and it is 3:30 and I am just going to move on to something else…

I have changed browsers, settings and probably a few things that I was not suppose to change.  Still nothing worked right.  Was totally not what the way I had planned my day.

So I think I will just go fix me another cup of coffee and take a little break before I get back to my Daily Do’s List….

I sincerely hope that your day has been one that has made you smile.

Many Blessings and Much Success!

        My 30 Day Challenge..

Today is Sunday April 21st 2013 and it is also the day that I am starting my 30 Day Challenge…

Today I read a post that one of my friends wrote and it really got me to thinking..  She proposed a 30 Day Challenge and I am going to take her up on it.

The actual title of her blog post is Are You Teachable?  Well that caught my attention because I consider myself to be teachable but I wanted to see exactly what she was talking about.

I really liked the part where she said this:  “So I would like you to backup and try this little exercise for me – this will show you many things – like if you are teachable, can you stick to a routine, are you serious about working online, and do I have what it takes to stay focused – because without these qualities – you might as well go back to Facebook and play Farmville and know that you are online only as a hobby and the fun of it.” and since I don’t know how to play Farmville I figured that I had better get my butt in gear and take her challenge to see if I am indeed Teachable.

Here is what she said:  “BUT if you can do this exercise for 30 days, every day and not make any excuses why you can’t, set yourself up a routine (could be do these before I open Skype, do these before I read my emails etc) you get the idea – you need to set it up to do it the same time everyday.  After the 30 days you will have a better idea what working online is really like and if you also make it thru you are teachable and ready to add to your routine that you have already set up here.”  Wow, does she really mean that I just may need to get my To Do list done BEFORE I get on Face Book or check my Emails??

Wow…  She is harsh…  lol….  I know Nancy is right and I really needed to hear what she was saying…  More than hear it I need to DO IT…  So, today is my first day of my 30 Day Challenge that Nancy has put in front of me…  I am working up my NEW To Do list, now, and I plan on staying with it, this time….  It all has to do with The Slight Edge…  and I can do a little bit, everyday….  How about YOU??

Now I am going to borrow Nancy’s awesome quotes that she put in her blog post..  I am sure she won’t mind..  because that is the kind of person she is….

“There’s a difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something you only do it when it’s convenient, when you’re committed you take no excuses only results.” Author Unknown

“You don’t have to be great to get started but you have to get started to be great.” – Les Brown

I had NO idea how bad Energy Drinks were.  I had never had one because I made my mind up before I drank one that I didn’t like them… But I do that with a lot of things…. lol

My 14-year-old would drink them all the time if we would let him..  And believe me he does NOT even need them…  ON the other hand I DO need them…

I found a product that was an all natural alternative to the Energy Drinks and I started giving it to my 14-year-old before his football games.  And he totally BEASTED on the field.

Now, I can’t say that it was totally from the Energy Chew that I gave him but I do feel it helped.  Plus he doesn’t mind taking it either…  Which is a good thing..  They are so easy to carry.  They come in a little packet that you just rip open and there it is..  One little energy chew that is All Natural and Healthy..  No worries about the BAD stuff that they get from the awful Energy Drinks that so many people are drinking.

I noticed that my husband and my daughter started using them to boost their energy while at work.  My husband is a machine operator and my daughter owns her own salon.  They both work hard and long hours…

I love to have them handy when I am starting to feel sluggish and need a little pick-me-up.  Just pop one in my mouth and chew it up.  I don’t even need to have water to chew it…..

What is YOUR definition of Loving Life and Truly Being Happy?

There is no right or wrong answer here it all depends on where your heart is. 

Some people have to have it ALL to make them happy and feel successful and some don’t.

I sit, sometimes, and think about what really makes me happy and yes money does play a role in it…   Must I have millions to be happy???  NO, but I wouldn’t turn it down.  Not at all.  But having enough money to pay your bills and do extra things can only make life easier and way less stressful.  I, personally, am not big on expensive cars, name brand clothes, big houses, expensive toys and things like that..  Now don’t get me wrong, I do like nice things but I am more of a jeans and flip-flop kind of girl.  I wouldn’t mind having a different house but we are so blessed with our 5 bedroom 2 bath house, now.  We all have our rooms and everybody else seems to want to hang out here with us which tells me that we have something that most people don’t have.

I would like a newer car but I would just get a newer model of what I already have so what is the point?  Mine runs and drives great and I truly like it.

I probably need more clothes because I seem to wear the same things over and over again.  (yes, I do wash them. lol)  I have tried the name brand clothing and high heel shoes thingy but I am not comfortable in them AT ALL.  I always am clean and neat but you will usually find me in my jeans and sweater with my crocks or flip-flops because that is how I like ME.  My husband did tell me the other day that it was time to retire that sweater..  LOL..  But I just feel so good and comfy with it on.

I am not a huge make-up and hair-do person, either.  Now, don’t get me wrong I never go out without make-up on and I always wash my hair.. But you won’t find me with my hair all done up, curled or straightened and you won’t find me taking more than 5 minuets to put my make-up on…..  You will never find me without lipstick because I LOVE how it feels on my lips…  I don’t do perfume as most of it gives me headaches but I always smell clean and fresh…

I say all of this to make a point that you don’t have to be hung up on all of the things that money can buy to be happy and successful so when you make your goals make sure that they are truly what you want and not someone elses dreams.  Just because your dreams are not the same as others does not make yours less than theirs…  Dreams and goals are important and I do have them but they are MINE….

When I get sad and feel like a failure it is usually when I am looking at other people’s goals and dreams and not mine.  As long as I am reaching MY goals and dreams then I AM doing what I am supposed to be doing.  And so are YOU.

Take time to really listen to what you are telling yourself and write down your dreams and goals.  Yes, you can change them as you please.  But change them because YOU want to not because someone else has told you that you need to.

Find out what makes YOU happy learn it and live it.  You can’t go wrong with that.

Take a minute and let me know your thoughts on this.  I would greatly appreciate your feedback.  Share your goals and dreams with me if you like.

Make this day the day that YOU are going to change your life and always remember that Yes, You Can Change Your Stars…

Many Blessings and Much Success,

Patti

I am not even going to lie, I am getting my businesses mixed up a bit…  I am looking at three new business opportunities to possibly add them to my marketing and income adventures.  But I have got to be sure that they are going to fit me, my lifestyle and my values before I market and promote them.  That is why it is taking me a while to make my decision.  I have several people waiting to see what I am going to do so they can join me and I want to lead them in the right direction.

So far, one business is looking good as far as the owner, leaders and corporate as well as their comp plan is good, too.  But as far as the product, they currently have, it is one that has a limited market and that is a concern to me.  I know that I can market it and do well but I am thinking about the other people that are wanting to join me in my business.  They are however looking to add more products to what they offer and I am anxious to see exactly what they will be.

One of the other ones is looking good as far as the product, comp plan and leadership but I can not get my site to work right and it is getting really frustrating…  We will see in a few days about this one.

The other one is looking good as far as product, leadership and comp plan but I am just waiting for launch to see how it goes..

I am learning more ways to market my products online and that is going great.  I have picked up several awesome tips and tools from my friend Craig Caron.  He is amazing with his marketing skills and his generosity.  He is always there to help me when I need him and believe me I have needed him a lot.

I still work my other network marketing business, It Works! and have awesome results with it as well as their products.  The products, leadership and comp plan with It Works is amazing and only gets better with time.

When you get a minute, shoot me a message as to what is important to you in a home business.  I am interested in hearing from you and seeing what you look for.

Make it a GREAT Day!

Blessings and Success!
