Stay True to Your #1 Resource

"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born." -Anais Nin
 Surround Yourself with Successful Like-Minded Individuals. Create relationships and a circle of friends that support you. It is so important to be around people who think the same way as you. It is invigorating to share ideas, stories, and thoughts with these individuals. You may lose a few friends along the way because they do not carry the same mindset as you. At first, this may be disheartening but the question you have to ask is, "Do you wish to move forward and be around people who support you and wish you well or do you want to stay stuck doing the same things you have always done? Surround yourself  with people supprot you and want you to grow as a person. Make new friends. Get to know people who have the qualities you admire or who have accomplished what you wish to accomplish. Ask them out for a coffee or lunch. You may even ask them if they would mentor you. These are the people who challenge you to grow and assist you in reaching your goals.


Who is your mentor? Who can help you take your career and life to the next level?

Millionaire Mom - Million Dollar Advice Under Your Nose

Are you inspired and committed to make things happen? Do you need a mentor to point you in the right direction?  I had the great opportunity of connecting with Millionaire Mom, Joyce Bone, www.millionairemom.com. The tagline says it all "Because Every Mom is Worth a Million". As mompreneurs, we are often juggling many different tasks and duties everything from shuttling kids to baseball practice to climbing mountains of laundry while running a business. We are ambitious, dedicated, and motivated to achieving big dreams. Joyce Bone's recent blog http://millionairemomsblog.com/ sends a great message - there are mentors right under your nose. Are you taking advantage of it? All you have to do is ask. Look at what  the successful women around you are doing - going after what you want, does not mean you have to go it alone!
